ROSE OF THE RANCHO

The year 1850mvns a strenuous one for the land owners of Southern'California, especially‘for those of Spanish birth or extraction. Bands of ruthless outlaws, knowing the lax laws better than the settlers, inaugurated a system of claim-jumping. and land seizure wherever they found that a careless farmer had omitted to register his land under the now Act. At length the Government was forced to take action and sent an agent to investigate. His adventures with the claim-jumpers, and his adventures in love with the beautiful Juanita, the daughter of the Spanish ranchowner, make a stirring, vigorous, and I romantic story which is cleverly and artistically told in the Lasky Famous Rlayera’ feature film, “The Rose of the Rancho,” to be screened at His Majesty’s Theatre to-night for the 1 first time. Acted with a charm and power by a strong company of players, including Miss Bessie Barn scale. A good supporting programme lias been arranged, and will include Rathe Gazette, “His Fairy Godmother,” a Wally Van comedy, and some splendid views of Rieti (Italy).
