Doing a love scene in a street with
a whole rabble of gawking, half-grown
boys looking on is more difficult for
CRANE WILBUR than falling off a
25-foot wall or going into a burning
building.
There isn't anything that
SCARES me quite SO completely" "
the handsome Pathe Freres actor con-
fdentially told me, "as kissing the
heroine in front of a lot of young
sters. I'd rather risk my life in al
most any kind of a hairbreadth ad-
venture than to meet the eyes of those
wondering, mischievOus kids"
Maybe you don't know, C didn't

door scenes, especially those requiring
backgrounds of buildings and con-
veyances and pedestrians, are taken
right in the busy part of cities The
producer Of a picture doesn't care
where he goes TO get his effects, or
who is looking. All he wants is the
true-to-life background. And the
players have 10 go al,s <. So. y6u

ture player who makes a success of
the duplex exposure. That sounds
unintelligible. l suppose, because it
did to me. This is WiIbur's explana-
ton, whichc he gave me to pass on as
we chatted in his dressing room at the
big Pathe Freres plant over in Ho-
bOken.
The duplex exposure is a double
exposure, of course" said Wilbur 1T
takes a great deal of time to make a
picture in this way. Its purpose is to
enable one player to take two parts
in the same picture. SO you see | can
be a Jekyll and Hyde both, in a pic
ture play by using the duplex system.
"A recent picture in which / play
ed, in two totally different parts. is
The Compact. One film is blocked
out That means, you see. that an
with himself must cOnfine all his ges-
lures and movements to half the space
ordinarily allotted to him
When the first part has been COM
pleted and the film blocked out. the
second part is played and taken on
the other half of the hlm. You will
see that il is absolutely essential to
play the scenes in exactly the same
time and make the gestures and ac-
uons of both parts dovetail perfectly
to get the effect.
Il have had the satisfaction Of go
ing into a theater where one of these
duplex pictures was being shown and
hearing people in the audience say: L
wonder who that other fellow is play
ing with Wilbur That was all I
could have asked. Work pays when
you get that kind Of comment"

Indianapolis Citizens Fighting
Proposed Merger Even With
60-Cent Gas Rate.
SAY PROMOTERS TO
MAKE HUGE PROFIT
0evr Four Million Dollars to Be
Made on Deal, is Charge
Admit That Gas is Made for
Il Cents.

INDIANAPOLIS. July 30.-Cheaper
gas and an end to holding up the pub
lie and to watering stock are issues in
a big fght being waged here.
The people seem TO have the best
of the argument just now. but the
fight can not be said TO be over. In
the background hovers municipal
ownership.
The Citizens Gas Co. OF Indianap-
oils was organized nearly ten years
ago 10 protect the people from the In
dianapOlis Gas Co, which then had a
monopoly. Now both companies are
controlled by the same capitalists and
these men have asked the public ser
vice commission OF Indiana TO permit
the Citizens Co. to lease the other
plant under favorable terms TO inter-
ested capitalists.
Have Whip Hand.
Seeing the cid monopoly coming
back into power the people protested
and the commission served notice on
the proposed merger that it could not
take place unless both companies sur
rendered their franchises including
their rate-making powers.
In fact. the Indianapolis Gas Co. s
franchise has expired and the COM
pany uses the city's streets only by
sufferance. In this respect the peo-
pie have She whip hand.
To surrender the making
power meant that the gas magnates
can not raise rates at will TO pay in
terest and dividends on the water.
which it is charged them, they plan
TO put into the mergd ceoempany.
II also meant that the public ser
vice commission would have absolute
power over the mergers rates. With
the tide of public opinion against
them. the hackers of the combine are
trying 10 effect a compromise with
the commission.
When the merger was first pro-
posed loud mention was made OF the
cheap rate being furnished local gas
consumers-6O cents a thousand cubic
feet. and promoters made oral promi-
ses that IL would not be increased
under the merger. The people
promptly showed that the Hamilton
(Ohio) Public Utilities Co. furnishes
gas at 80 cents a thousand and the
Peoples Gas Light & Coke Co., Chi
cago, at 40 cents a thousand.
Thirty-Cent Gas Possible.
Also. the sworn statement Of the
Indianapolis Gas Co.'S president was
brought out showing that the COM
pany made gas at a cost of 21.S cents
and shortly expected to cut this down
by II cents by n new improved pro-
cess OF manufacture. Figures were
also shown that the company could
sell gas at 80 cents and still make
six per cent on it's own valuation.
But IL remained for the financial
side OF the proposed merger to rouse
the public. 1t is charged that the
terms OF the combine would foot up
S4,1OS.250 profit TO the promoters;
that the Indianapolis Gas Co.'s plant,
sworn to be worth only $1,5OO.OOO.
was IN the combine for a five per
cent guarantee on SS,033. 900 stocks
and bonds. and that the proposed
merger would prevent the city from
ever acquiring the Citizens Co with
out assuming the Indianapolis Cos
Co.'S lease.
