EMPIRE
“A TRICK OF HEARTS” Ivor Novello, the well-known British actor, plays his most dramatic role in “The Triumph of the Rat,” which is now being shown at the Empire Theatre. In this story he is seen as Pierre Boucheron, the idol of Parisian society. He falls in love with the Comtesse Madeleine de L’Orme, but in so doing he makes his lover jealous, and she determines to send him to the gutter. At length he becomes potman at the White Coffin Inn, where once he had reigned as king. But she is not content and engineers a plot by which he seems to have betrayed his own comrades. In the end he is seen friendless and alone. Hoot Gibson, in one of his best Western stories, entitled, “A Trick of Hearts,” will also be shown.
