The star feature drama entitled "The Fatal Legacy," by the Kalem players, embraces : -> wonderful plot, showing ;the lust L 'or alcohol which passes through six generations; the acting is extremely good, and various decades call to mind the celebrated J.C.W.'s production of -"Milestones." "The Topical Budget" received great applause, being crammed full of the world's latest sensational doings. "Horse Racing in a Dense Fog" delighted the audience. '''Playmates," a drama by the New Majestic Co., and "The Honor of the Force," by Edison, are real line dramagraphs. "The Celestial Republic," taken by the Yitagraph Co. on their receivt eastern tour, is an up-to-date educational travel film. The supporting films are all good.
