Today’s Tribune Selection is Our Own Augustus Phillips.

The Chicago Daily Tribune makes selections of the best photo play stories of the day. It is interesting to see that today’s selection is an Edison drama in which Augustus Phillips, of Rensselaer, is starring and that The Tribune publishes Mr. Phillip’s picture witn the following brief sketch: “Augustus Phillips is a comparatively new arrival in the moving picture world. He spent eight years in a Brooklyn stock company, followed by two years at the Fifth Avenue and Lincoln Square theaters in New York. During this period he played Jules Beaubein in Eugene Walter’s “The Wolf.” Then he was for a season under the Cohan & Harris management in “Miss Ananias.” He was with the Southern Stock Co. of Columbus, Ohio, and leading man at the Alcazar theatre in San Francisco. He has met with great success in this new field and is regarded by the Edison company as one of the most valuable men on its staff of actors.” The story is entitled “All For His Sake,” and is related in brief in The Tribune. The Princess Theatre will give this picture soon, and all regular attendants at the theatre will see in the natural run all the plays described from day to day in The Tribune;
