GRIFFITH AGAIN TO PRODUCE A BIG EPIC Abraham Lincoln, the Man, Will Be Central Figure in an All Talking Picture to be Made Soon. ABRAHAM LINCOLN, the man, will be the central figure of the first talking picture epic. David Wark Griffith will produce as his first 100 per cent dialog picture an original scenario woven around the human personality of Lincoln rather than a study of the public figure of the martyred President. United Artists will release. The picture will be placed in production soon. Because of their differences of opinion regarding screen epics. Joseph M. Schenck and D. W. Griffith nearly ‘‘came to the parting of ways," the former said in Hollywood yesterday.

But Griffith was persuasive and ultimately convincing in his arguments for a talking picture epic that would combine with the visual scope of the camera the mobility and sensitivity of the microphone. Hitherto, it is explained, very few talking pictures have made more than half a dozen interior sets; some experiments in outdoor talking pictures have met with success; but nothing like “The Birth of a Nation" Thursday night at headquarters, 1102’- Prospect street, and completed arrangements for the rally, including decoration of poles and wires in the twenty-five blocks of the parade route. Jail Breaker Caught B.y T i nrs Special SOUTH BEND, Ind., Sept. 6. Mose Stephens, 42, Negro, who escaped with three other prisoners from the St. Joseph county jail here Wednesday night, has been captured in Kankakee, 111., local police officials announce. The other three are still at large.

or “Intolerance” has been attempted in talking pictures. In Mr. Griffith's “The Birth of a Nation” there was a scene depicting the assassination of Lincoln, who was portrayed by Joseph Hennaberry. thereafter a director of several Douglas Fairbanks pictures. A silent film version of a life of Lincoln was made some years ago by First National. John Drinkwater’s play, “Abraham Lincoln,” has been acted on American stages. But now the talking pictures, through the director of the screen's greatest epics and principal historical films, present in sight and speech the humanity of Lincoln dur'ng a dramatic epoch of American history. nan Charlie Davis and his orchestra opens today in anew stage show, “Rah, Rah, Rah” at the Indiana. Other features today offer Adela Verne at the Lyric; “Four Feathers,” at the Circle; “Madame X,” at the Palace; “Honky Tonk,” at the Apollo; “Sugar Babies,” at the Mutual; “The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu,” at the Ohio, and movies a: the Colonial.

DESTRUCTION OF WHALES BLOW TO SCIENTISTS Physiologists Say Animal Is Most Interesting in World. Bv United Press BALTIMORE, Sept. 6.—The threatened extermination of whales is becoming a scientific as well as economic catastrophe, the Council for the Observation of Whales declared in a statement today. Physiologically, whales have many curious characteristics and differ from any known specie of mammals, according to the council’s statement. ‘lf one had to pick out just one sort of beast as the most interesting from the purely scientific standpoint,” it continued, “what would the verdict be? Undoubtedly the animal of the greatest potentialities in this respect is the whale.” The skull of the whale has changed more than any other existing mammal, principally because of

the migration of its nostrils to the top of its head and the alterations in bone-mechanics this has entailed. It is the only animal having more than three bones to a single finger, there being more than seventeen in some cases. Strange to say, the whale has a brain of a “particularly high type,” the council's statement said. ‘‘But for what purpose,” it added. “It is impossible to say, as apparently it has need for only a very low type of mental equipment.” Its ability to descend to a depth of a mile, where the pressure is greater than a ton to the square inch, and remain for more than an hour is perhaps one of the most in-
