Wizards of the Films Making Pictures For Local Theater

D. W. GRIFFITH.

EXTRAORDINARY developments

the motion-picture art have culminated in the formation of a $5,000,000 corporation for

serving a first-class theatre in each locality with the Griffith, Ince and Bennett screen plays. This is said to be the most serious inroad made on the so-called "legitimate" stage by the films. Griffith's "The Birth of a Nation" demonstrated the supreme excellence of the new art at its finest and best. Now that David W. Griffith, the producer of this masterpiece Thomas H. 'nee, creator of ."The Battle of Gettysburg," and Mack Sennett, famous for the Keystone comedies, have joined forces it is believed that the atiac* or the pictures on the strjngholds of the "old-line" stage will prove irresistible.

This combination, engineered by the widely advertised Triangle Film Corporation, will present each week a Griffith supervised drama, an Ince supervised drama and two Sennett-lCey-stone comedies. Fourteen thousand feet of film, a big, generous evening's entertainment, will be offered, supplemented by elaborate thematic music under the direction of William Furst.

Regular theatrical managers rarely attempt to present more than one play or one star in the course of an evening.

Imposing List of Stars.

Right there is where the competition of the new art is baffling, overwhelming.

Producing for a thousand theatres simultaneously, the picture director? can afford to give half a dozen stars and several plays in an evening. Notice how this works out.

In the first bill of the new Triangle Raymond Hitchcock, Dustin Farnum, Douglas Fairbanks, Mack Sennett, Mabel Normand and Fred Mace appear all in stellar roles. The plays include an Alaskan romance, with Dustin Farnum's gallant lovemaking in the chief role of "The Tron Strain an entertaining Mexican adventure story, "The Lamb," the lively Douglas Fairbanks in the title part an uproarious farce, "My Valet," enlisting Hitchcock, Sennett, Normand and Mace.

Such a galaxy of talent would bankrupt the average manager, but it does not feaze the picture men a little bit. Indeed, they've got a corner on no less than 120 stars and will follow the

KNOBLAUCH PLAY

'"Marie-Odile" Due At the Grand December 4 Regarded As Belasco Triumph.

Edward Knoblauch, the author of "Marie-Odile," the latest Belasco success in which the popular and talented young actress, Frances Starr, will appear at the Grand on December 4th, paid a fine compliment to David Belasco when he instructed his American representative to submit this latest play from his pen to the famous producer, and that if he couldn arrange to give it a production, to return the manuscript. The reason for this unusual request was that "MarieOdile" was considered by Knoblauch to be such a delicate and slender tale depending upon the creation of precisely the right atmosphere for its charm and beauty and that it could easily be ruined by a producer less sympathetic and artistic than Mr. Belasco. And wnen on the opening night at the Belasco theatre, New York, Mr. Belasco with characteristic fairness and pride appeared before the curtain and told the audience mat ne was prouder of Miss Starr than ever, his sentiment was echoed by everyone present who had witnessed her superb interpretation of the little novice in the convent of St. Odile. It is a role demanding such gentle force and girlish charm that it is said to bo quite the most beautiful characterization Miss Starr has ever appeared in.

The story of "Marie-Odile" is laid among a group of sisters in an Alsatian convent during the Franco-Prue»i»nj war of 1870. The story has to do chiefly with a young novice who, in babyhood, was found at the convent gate and who has been reared by the sisters solely as the "bride of heaven," without any knowledge of the outside world. She had never seen a man, except the venerable Father Fisher, who ministers to the spiritual needs of the sisters, and Peter, the convent- gardener, now in his dotage. In unburdening her heart to the good Sister Louise, who alone of all seems to understand the sincere and innocent nature of the girl, she confesses that she has dreamed of a "something" which has not yet been told her, of a "man," who might be young and beautiful like the great picture of St. Michael with his flaming sword which hangs upon the convent wall. But the good sister deftly directs the young girl's thoughts to her vocation, and to the higher life, of which alone she must dream, while she pursues her humble duties of a servant in the convent under the eye of the stern mother superior. She loves the good Sister Louise and she also loves her pigeons, to whom she steals alone in the loft at times be-

Houses Selected.

All of which would indicate that the era of the motion picture as a toy or as a refuge of inferior actors in trumpery plays is quickly passing irto oblivion. It has attained the dignity of demanding the best.

A pleasant feature of the Triangle plan is the exclusive nature of its bookings. The Knickerbocker theatre in New York, the Studebaker in Chicago and the Chestnut street opera house in Philadelphia will serve the metropolitan centers. Here the Varieties theatre has been selected a.«i the Triangle house.

The three great directors have been working six months on the pli.ns now coming into fruition. The three studios of Grifflthville, Inceville and Sen-nett-Keystone are now among the largest in the world. They have practically unlimited resources at their disposal, and wonderful artistic results are to be looked for.

cause they seem to reflect the warmth of their love. Beyond these her thoughts are only of "the Blessed Lady" and of St. Odile, the patron saint of Alsace, for whom she is named.

Seeming carelessness in her sweeping and dusting and her inordinate love for her pigeons prompts the mother superior to administer a rebuke and to order her to have Peter kill her pet pigeon. This is too much for the little novice, and. in a fit of rebellion, she steals off to the loft. In the meantime Father Fisher comes with news that the soldiers of the Prussian army are invading their land and the sisters must flee. In vain they call to MarieOdile, and finally they are compelled to leave without her. She is all alone when a detachment of Uhlans arrive and overrun the convent with thetr boisterous jests and laughter, but she humbles them and wins their respect by her sweet innocence and simple faith. One of them, a corporal, Philip Meissner by name, she mistakes for St. Michael, and falls on her knees before him. He is the ideal of which she has dreamed. Then and there in the hearts of "both Is born the love the world knows best, and it blossoms in all its fullness when he presses a kiss first upon her brow and then upon her lips.

Mr. Belasco has retained for Miss Starr's tour the same cast that did such conspicuously fine work during the five months' run at the Belasco theatre. New York. Some of the prominent names are: Jerome Patrick, Marie Wainwright, Harriet Otis Dellenbaugh, Harry Halllday, Carl Sauerman. Edward Donnelly and others.

STRICKEN MAN SEES TOTS BURN TO DEATH

White Plague Victim Unable to Rescue Children When Home Takes Fire As He Sleeps.

EL PASO, Tex., Nov. 27.—Angel Munso, robbed of his strength by the white plague, lay on his bed in a bare little cabin tonight and saw his two children burn to death. The mother, after a day of toil over the tubs at home, had gone down town to add to their scanty income by washing dishes in a restaurant. Jesus, aged four, and Angel, Jr., three, had said their prayers, kissed their daddy good night, and piled into their bed across the room.

Munso was awakened by strangling smoke. The roof had caught fire in the chimney. He tried to call to the children, but the fumes choked him. Unable to move for days, but struggling an inch at a time, he fought his way to a sitting position. Painfully he dragged himself from the bed, trying vainly to call to the unconscious children. He tottered to his feet a waivering step, another more slowly. His senses left him agd he fell In a heap. Neighbors attracted by the light of the flames rushed to the cabin. The rude structure was a mass of flames. A husky miner, his arms shielding his face, groped his way through the doorway and stumbled over a prostrate form. It was Munso. He picked up the unconscious man and reached the open Just as the roof fell. Munso revived in the cool air a few minutes later. He gazed about him wildly. "Mia muchachos," he cried, and fainted.

The little, blackened corpses were found after the flames had died down.

GERMAN HOPES RUN HIGH.

Der Tag Says Empire Will Show Superiority to All. LONDON, Nov. 27.—Germany will soon dominate the world, according to Der Tag, which says: "The principle of nationalties probably owes its origin to a historical accident.

"The course of the present war will demonstrate to the people of AlsaceLorraine the indubitable superiority of Germany over France, to the inhabitants of the Trentiro and Trieste the superiority of Austria, and to the Balkan people the failure of the Slavism. "Similarly, among other populations who have hitherto been dominated by the prejudices of language and origin, such a? the English, the Irish, the Dutch, etc., it mpv well be that the effect of our military successes will be to fouter among them the desire henceforth to march along the road to progress under the aegis of the strongest power of all—Germany."
