linquent juryman's brow.

linquent juryman's brow.
A rivalry thus nurtured through
many years was still further ag-
grandized by the advent of motion
pictures to Boulder Creek. Among
the first of the local talent recruited
by Beatriz Michelena were the ex-
Judge and the once profigate, but
long since reformed, Mr.. Hand.
Even in those first pictures it was
a question for heated argument to
determine which of the two made
the greater contribution to the
screen. Both men had boards, al
most equally long and equally
white. The Judge, however, had
hair that tumbled to his shoulders
(whereas Mr.. Hands was shorter
cropped) and his pipe was the
longest, largest and oldest in Santa
Cruz county-and strongest, too,
although this last named attribute
was ruled out as non-registering
and therefore Ineffective on the
screen. To offset the advantages
thus accumulated in the Judges
favor, Mr.. Hands adherents point
ed to ''Old Brass" an ancient
muzzle-loading musket of amazing
length and theft, which their
screen favorite carried across the
crook of his arm. 1t is a redoubt-
able instrument of slaughter, passed
from father to son through a sue
cession of Hands that must date
back almost to the discovery of
gunpowder.
However, as later events proved,
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1918-05-02

dous in reality as the director had
planned in make believe, had "Old
Brass been loaded with anything
more than powder and wadding
and the opposing artillery with
ball cartridges.
These two notables are at the
pinnacle of Boulder Creeks picture
profession. There are a number
of lesser lights, however, that out
shine the masses enough to COM
mand passing notice. There is
"West-Side" Jack, so called be-
cause his nose crooks towards the
west side of his face with a peculiar
twist that must have been achieved
some time in the past through sud-
den impact With an object of high
resistance. 1t is this same twist
of the nose and an individuality of
beard that recommend him for
pictures. When not engaged with
histrionic pursuits, Jack, in con-
summate metaphoricalirony. drives
the town water-wagon. He makes
the boast that he is the ''black
Sheep of a highly respectable
family and quotes as evidence that
he once walked the length of
"Whiskey Row." when Boulder
Creek was still in the hey-dey of
her prosperity and excesses, three
times without stopping in" to
take drink.
Texas George" is another of
the prize products of the screen
craze that has swept the town.
Continued on page 8. column s.,

all this preliminary and acrimo-
NOUS argument but served to set
the stage for the full fury of the
professional rivalry that blazed
forth when Mary Miles Minter in
vaded the Santa Cruz mountains
to film Melissa of the Hills.'' 1t
was a Kentucky feud story with
the Allisons and the Watts the
warning clans. A malevolent fate
ordained that the producer should
choose Mr.. Hand to be the great
grandfather of all the Allisons, and
Judge Page to occupy similar pa
triarchal position with the Watts.
As the story developed the hoary-
haired leaders of the two factions
fell more and more in with the an.
tagonistic spirit of it, until, when
the picture came to its close with
one of those ''bing-bang" battles
that give the man in the orchestra
an opportunity to use all his in
struments of blood-curdllng noise,
the boards of the two ancient rivals
almost bristled with fury as they
led their respective clansmen to
the conflict. The slaughter would
undoubtedly have been as stupen-
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1918-05-02

Once during his younger days
Mr.. Hand also basked momentarily
in public prominence when, as he
himself declares, he drank one
glass of sour claret too many and
forgot to appear for jury duty in
the most important case ever
booked on Judge Pages calendar.
The Judge, who was still young in
experience and possibly not as we'll
up as he afterwards became on
some points. of law, saw no way
out of the difficulty other than to
dismiss the case. Thus it happened
that the rightful ownership of a
certain and many times said"
Berkshire shoat, the object of the
proposed litigation, was never de-
cided. This disrespect for the
dignity of the court, together with
it's fragrant miscarriage of justice,
has ever since been a sore point
with the Judge for which he holds
Mr.. Hand in the first instance re-
sponsible. 1t was to even up the
humiliation of it, so local tradition
says, that he first went into train
ing to wrest the horseshoe cham
pionship laurels from the de-
