Camp For Newsboys."

All boys selling this paper will be al
lowed to spend two weeks Isis month in
camp in the woods free, accommodations
being furnished"
Fred stopped crying his papers in
-Joy. It seemed too good to be true.
But that night when he went home to
the tiny room up in the very top Of a
hot tenement. he told his mother about
the lucky news.
He had found out that the camp was
to be made about ten miles from town
on the big estate of the owner of the
paper. and that the boys were to be al
lowed to bathe. fish. and play Indians all
they liked, even to cooking their meals
over an open fire and sleeping in tents.
Fred had once lived in the Far West.
30 the idea pleased him nightly. On
his fathers ranch he had learned TO ride
and could swing a lasso as well as any
OF the cowboys. But for a year he and
his widowed mother had been In the
city. Here the other boys made fun OF
Fred. who was large and hardly knew
anything about city ways, but ne was
ambitious, and in his spare time he
studied hard to educate himself. This
was not easy. Poor as he was most of
his time was spent in earning a few
pennies which he gave to his mother at
night. "Booby Fred" was what the
other boys called him, but he struck
to his books and his work, and only
smiled at their jokes.
The day Fred went TO the camp was
one Of the happiest of his life. for now
he could show the other boys that he
knew something after all. He fshed
and built fires and cut wood and made
beds Of dry leaves for the lads who had
never been in the country. ther he
looked UP a good. strong rope.
You will be the cattle and / will be
the cowboy" he called. So for an hour
the whole camp was In an uproar with
the boys dashing about and Fred catch
ing them In the coils Of rope he threw
90 well. Each afternoon for a week he
would play this with the others. so that
in that time his skill was as perfect as
when he first came on from rhe West.
One morning q pretty little girl Wis
tied the camp and was much amused
by the play of cowboy. When she had

owned the paper, and on whose estate
they were camping. Her name was May
Winston.
Early Monday morning Fred took his
rope and walked down the forest road
This pike ran for two miles through the
woods. then turned suddenly at the top
OF high cliff which overlooked deep
creek below. The crest OF the cliff was
at least 100 feet above the water. and on
the bank at the foot were piles OF huge
stones which formed favorite fishing
spot for the boys.
Fred went on for a while till sud
denly he heard behind the cIatter of
galloping hoofs. Plunkety, plunkety,
plunkety II came beating hard on the
soft turf. Dashing down the way came
fine black horse at a mad pace. the
foam fiecking its satiny coat. while the
girl rider reeled in her saddle almost
unconscioIs from fright
In a moment Fred saw II was May
Winston and knew that her horse was
running as fast as his feet could carry
him to the top Of the cliff over which
both would certainly fall.
Save me. save me-" called the girl
as she caught sight Of Fred
Hold tight. I will stop him." cried
Fred.
AS the horse swept by Fred swung
the rope in wide circles above his head.
The coils spun out In the, air and
dropped over the neck OF the plungins
steed. As he felt the rope tighten Fred
ran slowly forward and when the rope
jerked him he planted both feet In the
nd IND 01i eli
II would not do to stop too suddenly,
for that would unseat the rider. So he
pulled gently but firmly back. pushing
steadily against the ground as he was
dragged on. till at last the horse came
down to trot. then to a slow walk and
finally stood still right at the top or
the cliff
In a moment he lifted the girl to the
ground and sat her down with her back
against a tree. Mounting the tired
horse Fred rode back to the home OF
Mr.. Winston. told them about the rum
away and was soon in an auto riding
like the wind TO where May waited
them.
The next morning Mr.. Winston sent
for Fred and offered to pay his expenses
at college. and to see that his mother
was comfortably fixed. So the boy
gladly accepted and in a few years re.
turned an expert civil engineer.
May was now a grown lady and she
and Fred became great friends so great
IN fact that one day she and Fred we're
married and went To live on the very
estate on which her life had been saved
long time before.

Mabel Taliafeno Was Once Star of
Movies Is Julia Murddck's Story

~LAIMING the distinction of hav-
III ing been the first American
~ dramatic star to have posed
for moving pictures. Miss Mabel
Taliaferro, who Ii making a short visit
to Washington friends. yesterday gave
the history Of her connection with the
picture drama-
when was little girl" Miss Talia-
| ferro said. "the nursery story of Gin
derelIa' had the greatest charm for me
/. of all the childrens stories. Many times
had thought that this delightful story
Of the beggar girl who became a princess
ought to be dramatized. and. in sact.
had often thought of dramatizing it
myself l believed that II Peter PAN
and other stories that had such uni
versal appeal to children could be sue
cessful surely Cinderella would be
equally interesting.
Had Great Desire
To Play Cinderella.
II had a great desire to play the part
of Cinderella myself, and had spoken
of my plan to several different play
wriRhts. As a matter Of fact. ten dif-
ferept authors submitted dramatic vers-
ions of the story to me. but all were
found to be impractical. Just about
this time / received a letter from Mr.
Selig, president Of the company which
bears his name. suggesting that I pose
for motion pictures. 1 was on the eve
of leaving for Europe, and laid the let
ter by. as had done with similar ones
before.
Like most people. I was ignorant OF
the bigness of the moving picture neio.
Mr.. selig had not mentioned any par
ticular play which he wished me 10
produce before the camera, though ne
had suggested that something resen-
bling Polly Of the Circus "Fanchon.
the Cricket" or one of the other plays
In which had been seen. would make
excellent material for a motion picture
drama
Il told him that II 1 could put on
something that 1 had had in mind for
some time / might be willing to con-
slider lis proposition, but no definite
arrangements were made just at that
time. He had mentioned the price.
which was 5000. for my services. and
royalties on every reel The price
seemed stupendous to me then. but I
can readily see now why motion picture
managers stand ready to pay such large
sums for their attractions
How Cinderella
Came To Be Enacted.
After / arrived in Europe the offer
made by Mr.. Selig occupied my mind a
great deal OF the time. and the idea
suddenly came to me that IL the story
OF Cinderella could be put into picture
form my ambition would be realized. 7
went to work upon the scenario at once.
and. with the assistance OF Harry
Mitchell Webster. We wrote tie play.
and i brought II back with me after
my six months sojourn abroad.
Then went to Chicago. where /
posed for the pictures. had been told
that IL would take about a week TO
make the entire production. but this
was multiplied by nine before the pic
lures were declared perfect. Mr.. Selig
told me that the production was made
at a cost Of nearly $l0o.0O0 There were
1900 people who were connected di-
rectly or indirectly with the making
of this picture story. which was in
three reels. and during the entire time
IL was being made all other work was
stopped at the Selig studio. Never be-
fore had | known what hard work

done other work which the profession
calls hard. 1 used to rise at O'Clock
every morning. eat my breakfast rush
to the studio, arriving at s o'clock.
and work as long as the light was good.
Some of the scenes were posed as many
as eleven times. All were posed at
least three times. I must say right
here. l never learned SO much in my
whole dramatic experience as 1 learned
when I was posing for this play.
AT that time. l remember. had an
interview with a Chicago newspaper
writer. in which / placed myself on rec
ord as saying that the motion picture
profession was a wonderful training
for dramatic people, and / prophesied
that within one year all the biggest
stars In the dramatic armament would
be posing for the movies
Her Prophecv Comes
True In New York.
i realize how closely l came to the
truth when l read that old interview
the other day. II was printed in Sep
tember. 1911, and there on the printed
page l saw that I had told my news
paper friend that l would not be sur
prised to hear of Nat Goodwin. Ethel
Barrymore. Blanch Walsh, Mrs. Fiske.
Faversham, and many other dramatic
stars consenting to pose for the silent
drama. The truth OF this prophecy IS
indicated by subsequent happenings.
II have never posed for motion pic
lures since my first experience with
them. because 7 have felt that I could
never top the Cinderella pictures. The
Cinderella play has been shown all
over the civilized world. in China,
Japan, Australia. and other, remote
