AMUSEMENTS
MAJESTIC THEATRE Patrons have come to know that any production that Gary Cooper appears in is bound to be good. Never was this more so than in respect to “The Texan,” which will bo shown to-night. The story is by 0. Henry, and needless to say the whole idea is on a novel ami surprising basis. It is packed fuil of fast and intense action. You see “The Texan,” a notorious outlaw, Hoeing from justice, with a price upon his head. He meets another rogue who suggests that they work au imposture upon a certain family in South America so that they can rob the estate of its wealth. “The Texan” agrees. The family treats him with love and kindness and to the man who lias had only kicks from the world this comes as a revelation. For the first time he commences to think that his mode of life is not all it should be and here the intense power of the story begins to materialise. Gaiy Cooper as “The Texan” is the man to the life. Fay Wray as the Spanish girl with her delightful broken English is dainty and exquisite. Many colorful and beautiful scenes of South America are shown. A comprehensive programme of featurettes is shown in support.
