Ira Smith, Staging Drama of "The Silent North" In Many Parts
 of Territory

Al Ira Smith, cinematographer from Los Angeles, and his wife, who were in Alaska last year after animal pictures, is in Seward today with a company of moving picture players, filming what will be q seven or eight reel Alaskan play.
 The leading woman in the play Is Miss Lottie KruSe from the Fine Arts Studio of Los Angeles, who appeared in Intolerance" Henry Bolton, from Balboa, California, and Bert Knapp are also with the company. Other characters who will appear in the pro- duction are actual residents of Alaska in the towns where the various scenes have been or are to be staged.
 The picture commences with scenes in Pasadena, California, taken at the Knight residence, one of the show places. The leading lady runs away to Alaska, dressed in mems clothes, and is discovered on ship board (the s. s. AlaSka) and put to work scrub ping the decks. Later she appears in Southeastern Alaska and then at COrdova.
 A scene of interest is to be staged at the San Juan dock this afternoon.
 Wonderful scenes were taken at Miles and Childs glaciers, where Miss Kruse and Henry Bolton swam the Copper River in front of the glacier. The bat from which they dove was caught few moments later in a giant ice slide and crushed, all being filmed.
 The party will go in over the trail from the head of Cook Inlet to Fair banks and remain in the North until winter, taking the final scenes in the snow.
