STEEL PREFERRED. The story of “StcpU Preferred'’ deals with a young steel worker, who, despite gyqat. handicaps, forges to the front, and not Only wins promotion, but the love of the daughter of his employer. Dr.ania and genuine comedy abound, the latter being supplied by sue.h comejdians as Charlie Murray and Ben Turpin. Many of their scenes are in the vernacular, “a scr.eam.” SATURDAY NIGHT. WYOMING. The story follows a train of. covered wagolns, laden with hardy pioneers of both sexes, along with the Oregon trail of Wyoming, in 1888, to productive lands in the interior. Dangejr besets them on every hand —resentful Red men lurk in every thicketdrama. is crouching behind’ the cyest of every hill. Samantha Farrell, having taken charge of. the caravan through the death of he ( r father, is for,bidden by a yoking cavalry officer to proceed beyond- the frontier of Wyoming. But she defies him and leads the train into a deadly a mbush. Only a heap of charred ruins mark the spot where the; c.ar.avan was last seen. From this point onwards, the story grips the heart strings. THE GIRL FROM CHICAGO. This is a brilliant story of the underworld and of a Southern girl who, seemingly, becomes a part of the hec.tic life of that City, to free her brother from a frame-up which threatens his life. Who Girl fr,om Chicago” is acclaimed a,s one of the really great melodramas of the year.
