ON THE SCREEN.
" Golden Rule Kate." Louise Glaum appears as Mercedes Murphy, known as " the sagebrush hen," proprietress of a Western saloon and dance hall, in the new Triangle play, "Golden Rule Kate." She knows how to handle a gun, and her word is law ; both men and women fear and respect her. An evangelist opens a little church in the Nevada mining town for the purpose of cleaning up things, particularly "The Hen's Dance hall." When the lady hears of his purpose she sends one of her admirers, " The Heller," to rope the minister and drag him from his pulpit in full view of the congregation. The firm) demeanor and earnest manner of the skypilot conciliates " The Hen," and she finally agrees to attend church every Sunday if he will tend her bar in her dance hall one hour each week. A new life for the village and its despotic ruler, " The Hen," develops from this compact. This film, with a 2000 ft comedy, Lonesome Luke Plumber and a Gaumont graphic, will be screened at Matamata on Saturday next.
