To the Kansas City Sun: In re-
gard to an article which appeared in
the Kansas Elevator May q, headed
Stay Away From Lincoln Electric
Park" l make this reply:
l have played before the crowned
heads of foreign countries and have
crossed the equator twice, have made
America from north to south and from
east to west, playing in all first class
theaters in this country; have recent
ly returned from Australia and New
Zealand, where I played a special en-
gagement under Hugo Bros, and /
think l am in a position to pass on any
play house or park which has come
under my observation, and will say
in answer the areicle written in the
Elevator was entirely uncalled for.
l am now playing at Lincoln Elec-
trio park and have been since shortly
after its opening, May 6, and can say
without fear or favor that there is
not a place in this country or any
other that l have been in that is as
finely equipped and run exclusively
for colored people as this park is.
/ wish to say further that l heartily
indorse this park to the colored race,
and believe that it is deserving OF
the patronage of all the good respect
able colored people, and they should
be proud to live in a city in which q
few white individuals would invest
$40,O 600 or $4,000 for their exclusive
pleasure. l can not see why any per
son who has attended this park could
have occasion to regret the dime OF
nickle that they might spend, without
it be some narrow minded man who
was pr~ejudiced at the park owner for
some reason OF other.
AS to the present management OF
the park, from outside appearance
everybody employed in the park, and
who has attended this season, seem to
be perfectly satisfied, and I consider
the article in the Elevator a slur on
myself as well as the rest of the per
formers and employees of the park who
are all colored. and the manager tells
me that he does not expect to employ
anyone in this park except colored
people.
Hoping my friends and friends Of
my husband, the late Billy Kersands
now dead, who appeared before Queer
Victoria by special request under the
management of Charles Frohman, ant
who had a reputation excelled by mons
and equaled by few. will take this ar
ticle as it is written.
Very respectfully.

THE SANDS o. DEE"
That Was the Film That First Made
Griffith Famous,

ut IL odd that you should ask me
about The Sands O Dee at this time
said Mr.. Griffith.
THAT was the first picture 7 ever
attempted In which the theme was
based upon n poetic idea. There have
been many since. but none fingers In
my memory quite so nffectionatcly.
The idea Of making tho picture
was due To what we are prone to call
an inspiration. Our little
OF players were in California making
another movie Of the sort then in
vogue. This was about six years ago.
One evening after the work had been
finished I was strolling about trying
IN locate some pretty backgrounds for
future use. Across a sandbar I spied
the figures OF Mae Marsh and Bobby
Harron standing beside each other and
looking out over the Pacific Ocean.
They were Just n boy and girl then.
Why the familiar lines of The Sands
o. Dee should have popped into my
head at this sight | do not know, but
they came tumbling into my thoughts
rather confused. In a way that sug-
gestcd the mystery of the sea. The
idea Of doing the picture took possess
