CAPITOL
NEW PROGRAMME TO-NIGHT A powerful drama of fiery-blooded youth, patriotism which bums like a white-hot flame, and for which no sacrifice is too great and a great and touching romance which knows no bounds —of these heroic elements has George Fitzmaurice fashioned a powerful, compelling film drama in “Rose of the Golden West,” which will be seen at the Capitol Theatre to-night. No finer performance has been seen on the screen this season than that of Gilbert Roland’s as the patriotic young Caballero who is willing to sacrifice his love for what he believes is patriotic justice. Mary Astor, in the feminine lead, has never been seen to better advantage, and her striking beauty is matched only by the note of sincerity and emotion which she brings to her performance. . Tom Mix has surrounded himself with one of the most genuine Western casts ever assembled for photoplay purposes in “The Circus Ace, which is the second feature on the programme.
