his cousin. Alphonse, the white por-
cupine.

Coon, and as he sat at home in his
house he asked the white porcupine,
his cousin, what he could do to make
it right with Jimmie Coon.

TONOPAH FAMILY STARvES
AS RESULT OF STRIKE

Within a hundred yards of where
the radical orators have been holding
forth for a month, dwelling on the
fact that there were mo wrinkled
stomachs" in Tonopah arising from
the strike, there was found yesterday,
an entire family in the last stages of
restitution.
They had come from Arizona,
travelling by "%fivver, and landed in To-
nopah just when the strike broke out,
so they were left without any re-
sources and without means of getting
away from the district. For a month
these people managed to exc out an
existence without making their wants
known and it was realized that a
father and mother with nine children
were slowly starving to death. The
county authorities saw that their
wants were supplied and an effort
will be made to send them on their
way to the Coast-[Reno Gazette.

David Wark Griffith has chosen the
ancient city of Babylon as the pictur-
esque background for a spectacular
in his latest super-produc-
ton, THE Fall of Babylon" to be seen
here for the first time at the Strand
Theatre next week.
The combination OF vital historical
data with modern has been
a feature Of practically all the big
special productions made by Mr.. Grit
fifth. Admirable examples of this
method of entertaining ~playgoers is
found in Mr.. Grifith's former works,
notably in THE Birth of q Nation"
and Hearts of the World" 1t Is a
splendid achievement to provide in a
single play or story a sufficient
amount of historical and therefore
educational matter along with the
purely amusement or entertainment
feature of a production, and in this
accomplishment Mr.. Griffith stands
quite alone among contemporary
writers and producers for the modern
picture.
