|3of the system will be under the con-
|trol of the Chicago Rock Island &
Pacific railway, an Illinois corpora
tion.
The abolition Of the holding COM
|panies is in conformity with the wish
ton. In abolishing them it will be
necessary to provide for other issues
OF securities in place Of the per
cent collateral bonds OF the Iowa com
pany and stock issued by the New
Jersey corporation.
1t is thought possible in financial
circles that the move might necessi-
tate a formal application for receiver

Two Leading Mutual Program Officials Bear Testimony To
The Domesticty of the Photopayers Griffith Films"
New Mutual Brand

Among the many surprising changes
that have been wrought in the theatri-
cal profession by the development of mo-
ton pictures none is more interesting
to the student Of human nature than the
change in the actor himself. President
S. S. Hutchinson, of the American Film
Manufacturing Company, producing pho
todramas for the Mutual program, said
in a recent conversation about the large
number Of artists employed by him in his
studios at Santa Barbara, California:
"The majority of photoplayers appearing
in Flying A and Beauty pictures are
married and very domestic in their
tastes. Life in Santa Barbara is very
quiet. Ours is the only motion pic
ture plant in that beautiful little city
and about the last placelto look for one
of our actors would be among the bright
lights. In fact, a few Of them are cul-
tvating their own farms in addition to
their work in the studios"

The MERCHANT of VENICE"
ON UNIVERSAL FILMS
a MARVEL of BEAUTY
The Smalleys' Photoplay Rendition of the Great Tragedy
Marks An Epoch the Presentation of the Shekesperan
Drama and Surpasses All Stage Precedents

There have been screen adaptations Of
shakespeare's plays in days pasta
number of them-but without doubt the
smalleys' four-reel production. adapted
from "The Merchant Of Venice" re-
leased under the Universal Special Fea-
ture' brand, win stand long time as the
apex Of perfection. 1t is one Of the most
elaborate, from the point Of costly cos.
tunes and scenery, that the Universal
Manufacturing Company has ever turned
out. SO careful have the Smalleys been
to render the production technically cor
rect that many Of the Venetian street
scenes were repainted four and Eve
times before they would answer the spe-
cihc requirements Of the producers.

Mr. Hutehinson's observation Of the
artists under his supervision follow
closely those of President c. ]. Hite, Of
Thanhouser and Majestic fame, who
commented upon the large number of
marriages that have taken place in his
companies during the last few years.
Matrimonial mixups and divorces
among professionals" he said, "have
been so loudly heralded from time to
time because Of the prominence Of the
principals, that the general public has
gradually come TO believe that the artist
and domesticity is a thing apart. 1t is
refreshing TO see the actor come into
his own as a husband and father before
the eyes Of the world. And however
maligned and misrepresented he may
have been by the undue publicity given
to the shortcomings of an erring broth
er, the records Of divorces among the
picture players, the majority of whom
are, after all, our old friends of the
footlights, cannot be said to be out Of
proportion to the figures dealing with
ordinarily mortals."

not take place upon the stage, has been
shown in the screen production. Conse-
quently the stage version has not been
followed scene for scene, but many
scenes which stage limitations bar, have
been injected into the piece. For this
reason alone the film production will
prove Of great interest.
Phillips Smnlley has essayed the part
Of Shylock. If there has been any doubt
as to Mr.. Smalley's worthiness TO take
his place in the front rank Of the greatest
contemporary screen artists, it will be
shattered on viewing the present play.
Mr.. Smalley is a thorough student Of
Shakespeare, having played leads in
many Of his plays before entering mo-
tion pictures.
Miss Lois Weber is seen as Portia,
and her work is the most exquisite and
delightful that could be imagined. She
has made the role throb with human
feeling and delicate humor.

Ever since the noted director severed
his connection with the Biograph Com
pany and joined the Mutual forces, he
has been working on the first big feat
ures to be released on the Mutual pro-
gram under the Griffith Film brand. and,
as they win be the first pictures in his
long career as successful photoplay
producer to appear under his name, he
has spared no effort to make them the
greatest photodramas he has ever ere
ated.
Added to the fact that GriGth is con-
tinually finding something new in the
method of staging a photoplay is the in
terest created by the recent announce
ment that he and William Bitter have
succeeded in improving motion picture
photography to marked degree. The
first Griffith Film, "The Single Stand.

of their progress in perfecting the clear

Through a new contract entered into
between the Universal Film Manufactur-
ing Company and the Morgan Litho-
graph Company of Cleveland. Ohio, the
former company has turned over to the
latter the designing and lithographing Of
nll Of its advertising paper for period
Of two years. This Is without question
the largest poster contract known to the
history Of the nthograph business.
The magnitude Of the transaction may
be realized from the fact that it involves
spending in the next two years $780,
600, and the eventual designing Of over
100000 sheets
The details Of the deal were arranged
by President +. J. Morgan, acting for
the Morgan Company. and Mr.. p. d.

The Portrayer OF Villains For the Screens

Unenviable And Embarrassing Renown
Acting a part, and living a part when

Of Bryant Washhurn, Of the Essanay
Dramatic Company.
Mr. Washburn, although IN real life
perfectly good and well behaved young
man, is usually cast as the villain in
most Of the Essanay dramas, and he has
been seen in such parts on the screen
until his face has become blended with
The rogues' gallery in the minds Of some
of the photoplay fans.
A few evenings ago he was in a Chi
cago elevated train when he saw man
seated opposite staring at him in a very
noticeable manner. Finally the man
seated himself beside Washburn and said
in low voice:

In their efforts TO completely outstrip
the theatre as the workshop for the best
players, the picture studios have scored
again. Thanhouser did it, with one OF
the best appointed green rooms" that
actor folk ever lounged in. President
Hite, whose interest in his players is
well known, figured that the high-grade
of actor that has been locking from the
legitimate stage TO the studio stage Of
late deserved as fine accommodations for
his comfort as the best legitimate
houses ever provided. So the pretty
green room under the new Thanhouser
stage resulted. 1t is painted a real en-

his coat lapel and displayed a brand
new shiny star.
At first Washburn thought the man
was joking, but he soon found he was
deadly in earnest. Despite the actors s
remonstrances. he was taken TO n sta
ton house and locked mp in n cell. 1t
was nearly noon the next day before
he established his identity and con-
yinced the police authorities that while
he might be n thoroughgoing 'crook" on
