LASKY COMPLETES
MARK Twin STORY

Preserving for all time the stories of
the late Mark Twain, the Jesse L.
Lasky Feature Play company has made
the first of a series of Mark Twain
adaptions for the screen. n feature pro-
duction of "Pudd nhead Wilson" The
exclusive rights of Mark Twain's works
were recently obtained by the Lasky
company. "Puddnhcad Wilson" will be
followed by Tom Sawyer" "Huckle-
berry Finn" "Innocents Abroad and
others.
In order to maintain the flavor of the
original novel. the scenes of which
are laid in the little river town of Daw
sons Landing. described in the book
as being situated a the Missouri side
of the Mississippi and in st. Louis,
some OF the scenes in the photoplay
will actually show picturesque bits of
life on the Mississippi, as the great
river was known to those who lived on
its banks in the days before the civil
war.
Although it is not generally known,
"Pudd nhead Wilson" was the first
piece of fiction which made use of the
subject of finger prints as a means of
identification, and Us Il theme by which
Il murder mystery was solved. In po-
lice circles the finger print method has
been almost universally adopted and
is known as the Bcrtillion system. The
late Mark Twain evidently was well
informed as to the secrets of this sys-
tenn long before ii was placed in actual
use in the leading countries of the
world. 1t is said that the conclusive
manner in which he presented the sub
iect in "Pudd nhcad Wilson had Il
large part in adoption of the system
and it's practical application.
