"THE CHRISTIAN"

In the wonderful acting
photo play, THE Christian" {,
which is being presented at
the Beach opera house Sept.
18th, one of the scenes re-
veals a reception at the home
Of Mrs. MacRea, a wealthy
woman, living on Fifth ave-
nue.. New York. Her daugh-
ter, Vera MacRea, is a type
of rich American girl, who
becomes the victim of an am
bilious mother. This situa-
ton is not especially novel,
but as it is portrayed by Miss
Jane Fearnley and MIR. Harry
Northrup, it becomes a vivid
Aesson to those mothers who
blindly try to force their
young daughters into fash
ionable marriage. The story
is painfully shown In the sad
ness of Vera's expression,
while she is being wooed by
MIR. Harry Northrup as Lord
Robert Ure.
The making of this film
took eight months of continu-
Gus care and labor. Frederick
Thomson, former stage direc-
tor with David Belasco, has
accomplished something that
is beautiful in feeling, and in
drama.
The entire production has
been under the personal sup
ervision of Commodore ]. Stu
art Blackton, who declares
that this is the greatest pho
to play ever sent out by the
Vitagraph people. 1t is safe
to say. that Eugene Mullin,
who has made the scenario,
has lost nothing of the flavor
Of Hall Gaines literary per-
formanoe, nor has the camera
ever achieved a more beauti-
full expression of emotional
acting than will be seen in the

DISCOVERY MAY
BE. TOMBSTONE.

Minneapolis, Sept. 23.-A
stone slab weighing about ESQ
pounds, upon the face of
which is handsomely carved
what appears to be the coat Of
arms or royal emblem of some
reigning European house Of
the 10th century or earlie7
was unearthed by Frank and
Luther Gates while hey were
digging a we'll on their lot
near Minnehaha Falls.
The tablet is about 5 feet
long, 2 IL feet wide and 4
inches thick, and the carving
reveals workmanship of a
high type, being characteristic
of many historical relics of the
early centuries.
The tablet bears no date OF
inscription nor any lettering
or hleroglyphics that might
reveal its history. Historians
declared it APPARENTLY is a relic
Of great value, probably iden-
tilted with the daring feats OF
some early explorer of the
American continent.
William Stearns Davis,
professor of history at the Un-
iversty of Minnesota, declar-
ed the description indicated it
might be a tombstone placed
over the grave of one of the
ea1ly French explorers by his
followers, or the tombstone OF
a general killed in one of the
carly battles between the
whites and Indians.
