NEW STAGESTAR
At THELIbERTY

"The American Consul" the latest
Jesse l.. Lasky release to come to
the Liberty theater, shows Theodore
Roberts, one of the most popular of
the many Lasky stars, in the leading
role. His leading lady, Maude Fealy,
is a new member Of the Lasky forces
but one who comes before the camera
with a record for big things on the
stage.
Maude Fealy enjoys the distinction
of having been the first American girl
selected as leading woman for the late
Sir Henry Irving, in London. She
also has appeared as leading woman
for Willie Collier. E. s. Willard, Robt
Hilliard and William Gillette. She has
appeared as dramatic star in a num-
Der of celebrated plays, the chief of
which, probably, is Quo Vadis" AS
a screen star it is easy to predict for
her a success equal to that she has
already earned on the stage.
Theodore Roberts appears as a
country lawyer with large political
ambitions, who attaches himself to
Washington until, in desperation, a
friendly senator secures for him the
consulate in a small South American
country. Here the lawyer rapidly de-
velops into big man who does big
things, all to the glory of his native
land and the delight of his fellow
couptrymen sojourning abroad. Miss
Fealy appears as the consul's daugh-
ter.
Chapter II Of ''The Great Secret"
confirms the suspicious of those who

here they are. They tell their own

Uncle Dan. Il can tell you, though

it is the duty of everyone to help de-
fend his country; and as war is now
carried on, no one can do much unless
he is trained. Also, the records show
that the Killed and wounded among
unframed troops is nearly three times

Colonies Founded by Negroes.

The first attempt to found an Afri-
can settlement for liberated slaves was
made 100 years ago when Sierre Le-
one, on the west coast of Africa, was
organized for that purpose. Doctor
Smeathman was the author of thu
scheme and Captain Thompson in
1885 purchased the territory from
King Tom Of the Timmanehs and COM
menced the settlement with 400 ne
groes and GO Europeans. The hostility
Of the natives and the shiftlessness of
the black cOlonists resulted in the fail

survivors were collected and new set
Element was started with colony Of
1000 negroes from Nova Scotia and
the Bahamas. The American negroes
were much more successful and Sierra
Leone is now a prosperous colony. In
1922 a similar colony was established
to the south of Sierra Leona and it be-
came the refuge for freed blacks of
the United States. as Sierra Leone had
been for those of British possessions.
The American colony became the in
dependent republic of Liberia in 1847.
