had stood among many others; until
this morning she had never missed IT,

in her room all the week; but she had
been wondering who had removed 1t.

When Miss Louise Wilcox, of Gilman.

She gave her name to a T.-R. reporter
at the station. Soon afterwards she
received communication from for

had seen her name in the T.-R., and
that for such sum of money all the
secrets OF her future would be revealed.
The lady with whom Miss Wilcox was
visiting also received a similar COM

in the paper in connection with the

When asked for her name again this

SPECIAL TRIUMPH OF A NEW ART
David w. Griffith's Extraordinary
Achievement Coming.


David w. Griftths most eXtraordi-
nary achievement with his new photo
spectacle, The Birth of Nation"
coming to the Odeon. is that of making
history live. He has touched the higE
peaks of American history-the intro
duction of slavery, the war of secces-
sion, the surrender at Appomatox, the
death of Lincoln, the miseries of re-
construction and the restoration of the
south to it's own. These things, It
would have seemed a year ago, We're
beyond the motion picture camera. The
master producer had the faith of ar
enthusiast. Within 1900 feet of cellu-
loid film he has successfully combined
a thrilling, plausible and dignified pre-
sentiment of national upgrowth with a
real and human love story based on
Thomas DiXon's bookromance, Tho
Clansman." AS it appears to the news
paper and magazine critics, Mr.. Grif-
fifth has not only surpassed the art
of the indoor" theater, but he has also
developed a new art-f0rm far superior
to the old-style history or historical
novel. The best characterization of 1t
so far is that of a very eminent pub
lie man who has called it History by
lightning.'
HAS $4,000 PEOPLE IN PICTURE.
Mr.. Griffith employed $4,000 people
IN taking these historical pictures. The
battle scenes We're actual duplicates of
several of the civil war conflicts and
SO were the facsmllies of important
events. We see Lincoln among his
councillors issuing the call for volun-
ters, Grant and Lee shaking hands at
AppomotaX. the shot that John Wilkes
Booth fired. the Freedman's Burea Il.
the carpterbaggerS' excuses, and the
famous rides of the ku Klux. The
realism is almost uncanny. Often the
old war shouts are heard in the audi
ences from the lips of veterans whS
momentarily forget that 1t is only u
picture. 1t is hard to keep ones feet
| from dan cling to the well beloved tunes
| of the martial music. Scenes in the
latter half of the pictures are so sknl-
fully managed that often the applause
is practically continuous flor half to
three quarters of an hour
''Cabria' and Quo Vadis' marked
great steps forward in the screen
drama. The Birth ola Nation" points
still more wonderful development,
the old dramatic form having been
thrown away and the epic or historical
form substituted. The old reproach
against the ''10-cent movie" is forever
| removed. Odeon.
