AT THE ILLINOIS,

In playing before the world It's pro-
duction of Camille" with Madame
Sarah Bernhard in the title role, the
French-American Film company has
not only reached its zenith, but it has
accomplished that which many of the
best known producers have failed to
do, since Nine. Bernhard has refused
all other offers to play for the camera
OF all members of the histrionic pro-
fession living there is not one whose
name can be mentioned in the same
breath with that of Sarah Bernhard.
She has reigned for many years as
the undisputed sovereign of her art
in every capital of the civilized world
In fact it is not too much to say that
Sarah Bernhard has enjoyed a popu.
larity as tragedienne to which history
offers no parallel. OF the many plays
to which this genius has distinguished
herself, the greatest favorite has al
ways been Camille" and this piece
is particularly suitable for production
in the form of a film since the story
is well known under the above title
and also as "Heartease' and La Ira
viata." The story will be presented
in pictures at the Illinois next Satur
day and Sunday.

The latest historical research has
been questioning the theory that King
Gustaf II Adolf actually fell at what
10 called "The Swedish Stone," at
Lutzen, Germany, and that his body
was kept and embalmed in the church
Of the little village of Meuchen, as
held by tradition. In connection with
this discussion it Is interesting to note
that said church is being thoroly re-
paired and put in modern shape. Dur.
Ing this work a search was made for
the wooden urn In which, according
to tradition, was kept the blood
washed from the kings body, as we'll
as parts OF his intestines. At the west
gable was found cylindrical crypt
made Of brick. It was about one foot
deep and one foot wide, and in this
were found some decayed bits Of
wood. few rusty nails, and remains
OF iron trimmings. 1t Is certain that
these objects are remains of tho
wooden urn which tradition has stuck
to for almost 300 years.
