Record as Actress, Theatrical,
Manager and Translator

ican Republics, She Begins

Rare distinction has been gained by
Miss Sylvia Lynden. a California girl

the original Iris in Ben Hur," was
with Norman Hackett in The Walls of
Jericho" and also played in The Man
on the Box" Then she played a year
and a half with Beerbohm Tree in His

The real test OF Miss Lyndens ability
and versatility has been her experience
in South America. She has played in
every country of the southern conti-
nent. even in Punta Arenas, the most
southerly point She is especially
proud Of the fact that she is the only
English speaking actress who has ever
gone into Argentina and the sister
republics, playing in Spanish.
While the other girls in New York
were besieging managers for engage
ments I was in my room studying Ian
guages, explained Miss Lynden yester-

CHEYENNE BUILDS
NEW AUTO TRACK
Constructing a Course for
Speeding Which Will Be
Best in the World.
Especial to The Herald.)

Cheyenne. Wyo., May 27.-Work Will
commence soon on Cheyenne's five-mile
automobile race track, which will be the
finest of its kind in the world The start
and finish Of the five-mile circle will be
in front of the big steel grand stand at
New Frontier park. The track will leave
the half-mile oval at the south end of
the stands and run to the Fort Russell
Cheyenne boulevard. thence east TO the
cemeteries, thence northeast and north
thence west around Lake Mahpahlutah
Sloan's lake and City lake, passing be-
tween the two latter, and joining the
Frontier park oval again at the north
END of the stands. One of the chief ad-
yantages of this splendid race course will
be its shape. being almost perfect oval
and the fact that the cars will be in plain
view of the grand stands and bleachers
for the entire distance. The distance will
be exactly five miles from start to fin
ish. The soil is gravel and loan, mixed
with a little clay. and racers say it will
be one of the fastest. If not the fastest
automobile race track IN the world. 1t Is
expected that several annual race meets
will be held here, and flyers from all parts
of the world will come TO Cheyenne to try
conclusions with each other on this won
derful track the construction OF which
will cost only few hundred dollars. and
the bulk of this expense will be for the
entertainments at the turns.

There was no poker played in Arkan-

were ample, and not one in the throng
failed TO secure all the refreshment he

Pursuant to this thought the two he

Willingness to sit in. They had expect
ed some objection on the part of the
newcomers, who could not be supposed
TO be in ignorance Of their reputation
as skillful players, but it appeared that
the others must be confident of their
own powers, for no objection was made
and they sat patiently for some hours,
losing their money with equanimity and
studying the game with close attention.
