NATIONAL PICTURES.

"THE PUfIPLE SAGE."

Next Saturday at the National Theatre, William Farnum will be seen in "Riders of the Purple Sage." It is a pictorial adaptation of Zane Grey's rather wonderful novel, and is a thrilling record of real life on the Texas Ranges. There is cattle rustling and ready redress galore, and the most appealing incidents are those in which open-air men, with all their passions atop, do the things their instinct tells them to do. The love interest is intense, and the extraordinarily beautiful incident in which a rough man nurses a lovely girl back to health in a cave, will appeal to all.
