execution his possession of the lovely
and helpless daughter.
Lynch had always determined to
found a BLACK empire" in the South,
with himself as "The Emperor" and
now, drunk with wine and cursed am
bition, he resolves to crown il all with
glory by making Elsie the white EN-
press.
His devilish opportunity m when
a sudden dire necessity compels the
girl to call at his house in quest Of her
father.
He seizes her and gives orders to
put all in readiness for a forced mar
riage between them. Stoneman ar
rives at the house, but is not admitted
past the colored guards. He attempts
to dictate, but is laughed at. Now he
realizes when it is too late, where his
overreaching tactics have landed him
and his innocent child. but he is
broken and helpless and absolutely AT
the mercy of the devilish Lynch, who
has the upper hand, with the free mig
gers and the colored militia back Of
him.
Nothing could have saved the I'M
fortunate girl at that moment from a
fate more distasteful than death but
the timely Intervention of Leader Ben
Cameron and his fearless Clansmen,
who picturesquely bear down upon the
rendezvous and break up the repulslye
proceedings, occasioning one Of the
bloodiest fights recorded in the pic
ture.
This brings old Stoneman to his
senses and he has no further opposi-
ton to Cameron; it also settles all the
false pride on lovely Elsie's part, who
has been thus saved from such a hor-
rible fate.
Those who witness this telling stu
alton as well as the many others in
this great work of works, d. W. Grit
ith's "The Birth of a Nation" will be
moved until their blood fairly leaps in
their veins. 1t is a series of sights
which make civilization ooze up in the
human breast.

GOODRICH ANNOUNCES $4,000 IN
AWARDS TO 1916 RACING
CHAMPIONS

A. A. A. is Sole Arbitrator and First,
Second and Third Speed Champions
will be chosen by its rules.
Goodrich Silvertowns or any other
make Of tire may be used.
Akron, O., May 20. (Special)-Al-
though Goodrich Silvertown Twin
Cable Cord Tires are already the ac-
cepted tire of the racing driver, and
are bought and paid for in every case,
a generous recognition of the selection
by outright purchase by drivers of rae
ing cars of the Silvertown Twin Cable
Cord Tires, for use in contests under
no influence of money consideration
for so doing, has just been announced
by the B. F. Goodrich Company.
The American Automobile Associa-
ton, the official association of car own
ers of this country, has prepared rules
to govern the determination Of the
actual champion for the season of nine
teen sixteen and will be the sole arbi-
traitor regarding such award.
The Silvertown Cord Tire ic univer-
sally recognized as the type of con-
~struction insuring best results in speed
contests and Is almost universally used
by racing drivers. There is no reason
why the Goodrich Company should ex-
tend any award for the purpose of in
ducing the use of the Silvertown Twin
Cable Cord Tire, and it does not, but
gives outright without a string tied to
1t of any kind whatsoever. ten thous-
and dollars divided between the author
itatively determined champion, the e C
ond and third in order quite irrespec-
tive of the make or kind Of tire that
may be used by said winners.

whose father is bitter against the
cause Of the south and who afterwards
turns out to be the notorious leader of

ambitious negro, Lynch, to control the
"free niger" vote and ride into office
through the operation.

Colonel CALAMITY wins his spurs. inter

Stoneman has always disliked Ben

barrier between the two, proud young

Fenwick was last seen on the screen
in five feature productions in which
she was starred and which were pro-
duced last year by George Kleine. Miss
Fenwick will not give up the speaking

Mabel Taliaferro, who has appeared
on the Metro program in "The Snow
bird" and Her Great Price" has
signed a long time contract with
Metro which insures her appearance
in at least eleven productions on that
program. She will begin work On the
first one Immediately, which will be
called "The Good Little Bad Girl"
This feature was written especially for
Miss Taliaferro.
Beatriz Michalena, she of the golden
voice, will next appear on the screen
in THE Woman Who Dared" pro-
duced by the California Motion Pic
ture Corporation. Miss Michalena's
role Is that of a French Opera Singer,
which recalls the fact that If the beau
teous Beatriz had not become a screen
star, she would have been n of Amer
ica's greatest sopranos.

Once again connects Little
Mary" Pickford with a change of
management. 1t is said she is about
to become a Vitagraph star. There is
probably a grain of truth in this rumor,
as Miss Pickford had been signed for
feature productions by b. b. Hampton
of the American Tobacco Company, at
the time when that gentleman was
trying to create a merger. When that
plan fell through, Mr.. Hampton prob
ably found that the Pickford contract
was a white elephant on his hands,
and as his relations with the Vita
graph are understood to be amicable,
he probably transferred the contract
to that company. The Famous Play
ers Company, however, declare the
m to be without foundation.
