At the Strand, The big attraction, "Black Beau- Ly," opens at the Strand for a three- day run Monday. Harry Pomeroy, the energetic manager of the Strand, returned from Toronto last night, after witnessing a private screening of this tremendous attraction. 'J can only say it's great." remarked M= Pomeroy, "I could never start to tell you the merit of this attraction." Still popular after running through scores of huge editions since its first mighty bid for enduring fame more {Bdwy A. Morden, than forty years ago, "Black Beau- ty," by Anna Sewell, is establishing a record in another field of human interest. After forty years, "Black Beauty" ranks eighth in popularity {among the world's books. At the be- | ginning of its career in motion pic- | tures its appeal to the public prom- ises to be even stronger than the one | it made through the printed page, "Black Beauty," a Vitagraph all- star special production, will be shown at the Strand theatre on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday | Extraordinary difficulties were faced and overcome in visualizing | "Black Beauty," but those which at first were looked upon as the great- | est turned out to be the least. The | first question raised was, "Can | horses be trained to perform exactly | the action of Anna Sewell'; book, so | that the story in pictures can be ac- | curately and faithfully told?" After long continued and patient | experiments, it was foun? that for the most part no training would be necessary, as all the ac'ion of horses in the wonderful book is natural to | them at certain times under certal circumstances. tion jis natural, spontaneous ir;portant part in the greatness of Anns Sewell's immortal work. The filming of this action, therefore, be- | came largely a matter of time and | patience, and complete success was attained at last. | The problem of presenting "Black Beauty" as a screen drama of the | strongest possible appeal, with a| gripping thrilling story, wa. more baffling. Mr. and Mrs. George Ran- | dolph Chester, who prepared the | Screen version, were unwilling to take any liberties in altering the text or changing the form of a work re- ! garded with reverence by millions of | readers. The problem was pondered for weeks before the inspiration | came. "Black Beauty' is being presented | With an atmospheric prologue. Spe- clal music has been arranged for this masterviece and the usual ghort sub- | Jects will be screened --Advt. -- At the Allen, "Nothing that within you lies can nge the plan of which you are a tiny part. Choose any road go east, 80 west, or north or south and meet the thing from which you ran away." That is the substance of "Roads of | Destiny," one of 0. Henry's master- pleces of short fiction, a screen adap- | tation of which will comé to this theatre on Monday, Tuesday, and | Wednesday. Rose Merritt, played | by Pauline Irederick, finds death | and disillysion wherever she turns. | The genius of O. Henry found a | means to show that no matter what | she did or where she went, Rose Mer. | ritt could not escape the fell clutch | of Destiny. In the four episod of the film she is four different persons ~--though but one and the same es- sentially--a croupler at a roulette wheel in an Alaskan gambling den; & courted society favorite on fashion. able Long Island, and her own self, until |a girl who has been has a | The fact that the ac- | is an | betrayed and de- |serted by her lover.
