SHADOWS ON THE SCREENS

, Eight World film companies are
away from their studio bases now,
seeking local color and atmosphere.
Robert Warwick, Gail Kane, Alec B.
Francis and fifteen players are at Bos-
ton making "The Heart Of Hero"
which is based on Nathan Hale's
career.
Z. K. Lincoln and Frances Nelson
are at SaraAac Lake, New York, high
up in the Adirondacks, securing detail
for dramatic tale.
Muriel Ostriche is working on the
lower East Side in q factory, leased
for sally in Our Alley" while Kitty
Gordon. June Elvidge, Johnny Hines,
Doris Kenyon, Ethel Clayton, Clara
Whipple, Gerda Holmes and Carlyle
Blackwell are at various points with
in few hundred miles Of Fort Lee.
The recent rainy weather in the
East has delayed production terribly,
with the result that almost all East
ern companies are working exteriors
now while the sun shines.
Herbert Brenon, who designed the
new Kellermann picture, is no longer
with the Fox concern. Consequently
the press matter bearing upon "A
Daughter of the Gods" now lacks the
rubber-stamped statement that the
picture was written and directed by
Herbert Brenon. So Mr.. Brenon is
hiring full pages in "The Morning
Telegraph" to acquaint the public with
that fact. His next endeavor, accord
ing to report, will be the production
of "Thais," with Mary Garden in the
star role. 1t has also been intimated
that Kitty Gorden would use "Thais,"
and It may be that we shall have a
couple of "ThaYses," or whatever the
plural is.
Ben Fl. Atwell, having taken one or
two unfortunate lessons in jiu-jitsu,

LOOKS LIKE CAMPBELL

PHOENIX, Dec 20.-The guberna-
torial contest has been temporarily
abandoned in struggle between
Governor Hunt and Thomas E. Camp
bell for the possession of the office
of governor on January 1.-the contest
to be determined later. The only ac-
tton taken with reference to the
contest was an application In SUI
preme court by Eugene S. Ives, coun-
sci for Governor Hunt, for a writ Of
prohibition restraining Judge Stan
ford OF the superior court from inter
fering with the inspection of the
ballots. The supreme court made no
order and the application was then
withdrawn
In the superior court Mr. Ives
asked for an injunction restraining
the secretary of state from issuing
a certificate of election to Mr. Camp
bell. A demurrer was sustained and
an appeal was at once taken to the
supreme court which set the matter
for hearing on Decembr 28.The court
however ,intimated that the demurrer
would be sustained and said further
that in it's opinion, it was the duty
Of the secretary Of state to make
an official declaration of the returns
and that on such a declaration Mr.
Campbell would be entitled to. his
seat on the first of January.

Danger Signal

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help to
put out the fire? It is much the same
way with a cough. A cough is a dan
ger signal as much as a fire bell. You
should no more try to suppress it
than to stop q fire bell when it is ring
ing, but should cure the disease that
causes the coughing. This can nearly
always be done by taking Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. Many have
used it with the most beneficial re-
suits. It is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often fol-
lows a bad cold or an attack of the
grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An.
drews, Ind, writes: "During the
winter my husband takes cold easily
and coughs and coughs. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is the best medi-
cine for breaking up these attacks and
you cannot get him to take any other"
