Life on the Mexican border is vivid- ly shown, many of the scenes in the picture having been filmed on Mexican locales, through courtesy of the Lower California government. The "inside" of the "fight racket" the Caliente races, actually filmed at the Mexican track, the great gambling halls of the "American Monte Carlo" and other striking intimato details give unique interest to the picture, most of this having never before been shown on the screen. Among the dramatic highlights are the race, the sensational prize fight in which Beery

For six months and more Miss Bennett ky in Los Angeles hospital and when she had at last recovered, once more mounted the same horse that had pre- viously thrown her and in the retak-. ing of the scene, rode him past tho same hooded cameras that had made him baulk.

"Dracula," Supreme Film Mystery.
A strange weird motion picture that outdoes all previous mysteries of the serven is "Dracula," the startling Universal production which is show ing for the last time at the Central
Theatre to-day, and has scored a sen- sational success.
It may safely be said that this story is distinctly in a class by it- self, and that its subject matter is absolutely unique among film pro ductions. For Dracula," which was adapted from Bram Stoker's famous unvel of the same name, deals with human vampires, which ancient su perstition describes as horrible un- dend"
creatures who rise from their graves at night.

Whether or not you believe in this major premise of the story, you will be enthralled by its presentation un the screen.
