PHOTOPLAYERS
Authoress H elps In
Staging of Bret
Hdrte Film
Play.
BY GARDNER MACK.

An evidence Of the manner In
which producers are using more care
in the production Of pictures Of the
better class Is found in the way in
which the matter Of detail is being
looked after. There has been much
criticism Of the film manufacturer
through his carelessness in this re-
spect heretofore. and this criticism
seems to have gotten under his skin.
The producers of the larger picture
plays, and especially those who are
producing book plays, realize that
they must not overlook a single
chance to make the picture as nearly
a duplicate of the authors ideas an
II is possible to make II. They are
making special effort, therefore, to
perfect details-the most minute de-
tail.
An.instance Of this sort 10 found tn

The Lily Of Poverty Fiat" the
Bret Harte story that has becn
dramatized to star Beatris Niche

and the director had at his side, In
the person of Mrs. Josephine Clif-
ford McCrackin. an assistant who
was an associate Of Bret Harta ON
the old Overland Magazine and was
intimately acquainted with the facts
OF. which the story was founded.

seventy-sixth year. passed the

the days in Indian raids and In

Discussing the work done by the
builders of this model mining camp
and the fidelity with which they
have reproduced the atmosphere Of
the days Of '4s. Mrs. McCracklin
says:
1T would read like a fairy tale
this springing up Of a real town
almost over night in the Boulder
Creek country. If one could not
vouch having seen It with ones
own eyes. The work done in, on
and about Poverty Flat reminded
me Of Bret Harte and Of the de-

THINE BLUFF PROGRESS
 ROSpERITY
(BROCKMAN'S FINESSE.

Representative Edward Brockm an q this county appears to have ef- fectually blocked the plan to extend the facilities of the Branch Normal school at this place by attaching to the bill providing for the removal of the school 10 site of 200 acres, an amendment stipulating that the pres- tnt site of % acres shall be sold for1 ret less than $50000.
 No one here conversant with real estate values seems to understand value of the land at $2500 an acre.
 Under the terms of an agreement between the Chamber of Commerce and the state school authorities, Pine Bluff was to provide site of POO acres for the school and dispose of the present site for at least $20,000. "he money derived from the sale was to be put into buildings at the new site. The purpose of the plan was
  tuition for giving instruction in agri- cultural and other practical pursuits.
 It is understood that the bill aa amended also carries the .appropria- tion for the school here. so that MT Hrockman's amendment not only blocks the plan to better the institu ton but jeopardzes it's immediate future.
 A cemmittee from the house and senate recently inspected the Branch Normal. several of the members re- naining here two days and inqulrlng deeply into the situation. This com mittee recommended the acceptance of Pine Bluffs proposition, and dia not indicate the belief that the pres ent site is worth more than S20.O0o

Wilson of this county opposed the adoption of the Brockman amendment on the ground that the property is not worth S50,- GOO, but the house members saw fit to amend the senate bill.

Not satisfied with telling managers of cities, railroads and other corpora tions how to manage their business, some of Arkansas legislators would now instruct President Wilson and Secretary Bryan how to handle the European situation.

However, there are some others in the legislature who, If they to not recognize their own limita- tions, at least appreciate the ability q; President Wilson and his cabinet t, handle the big diplomatic questions at least as well as could the state legislature.
