Edingburgh. Oct 1-(By The Asso-
ciated Press)-Lord Guthrie, the

OF a story which has long been cur

EN- in Mr.. Carnegie's honor at Pitts
burgh Mr.. Carnegie mentioned that
Joaquin Miller, the American poet.

free with Carnegie's name and with
the names of many much more H.
lustrous persons.
1.-THE King asked: What did MIL
Ter say about me?'
Mr.. Carnegie replied that he was

ADJUSTMENTS
GREAT NAZIMOVA
AT THE COLONIAL

BY far the greatest moving picture
Offering ever provided the lovers of
the silent drama will be provided at
the Colonial theatre today and to-
morrow when Nazimova, the great
est living actress will be seen in her
biggest screen triumph and Clara
kimball Young, admittedly one of the
most popular actresses, will appear
in 1.-THE Better Wife,
Other good things are also provid-
ed on the bill. In fact. the program
is such a long one that but one show
will be given in the evening. There
will, of course, be the usual show in
the afternoon and those who care
are advised to take in a matinee for
it is certain that the capacity of the
house will be tested.
The action Of Out of the Fog
starts in little Maine fishing village
where Faith, the sister of Job Cof-
fin, known throughout the country
for his narrow and harsh outlook on
life, and his bigoted religious ten
denotes, falls in love with a young
fisherman. Before they can be mar
ried he is lost in a storm and Faiths
little daughter Eve is born father
less. The wrath of Job Coffin is ter
rible and he dooms the young mother
and her babe to perpetual solitude on
a desolate island lighthouse in the
Caribbean Seas.
One of the most notable scenes of
the play is that taken on q we'll
known Maine lighthouse, permission
for the use of which was especially
granted by the U. S. government.
Out Of the Fog" is in seven acts.
Miss Young and her own company
present THE Better Wife," univer-
sally admitted to be one of her very
best dramatic offerings.
This story, which was taken from
Lenore Coffee's novel. THE Love
Quest" is delightful romance of
England and the Continent, in which
Miss Young is seen as an American
girl, Chairman Page. Chairman is
visiting friends in England when she
becomes acquainted with Sir Robert
Beverly. Lady Beverly and Little
Dick Beverly, their son. The thread
of the story. which begins at that
point, is rapidly woven into one of
the most interesting photodramas we
have ever witnessed.
Later in the story Miss Young be-
comes the second Lady Beverly, fol-
lowing the death of Sir Richards
first wife. but it is the American
girls wealth. and not his love for her.
that prompts the Baronet to make
her his wife. He believes that the
first Lady Beverly was the better
wife, and it is not until certain con-
ditions and circumstances, over
which he has no control. force him to
see the second Lady Beverly in a new
light. that he comes to realize that
she is the better wife.
Other good things on the Colonial
program will be Getting the Cas-
Stars Goat" an Outing Chester seem

tures.-Adv.

possible to find anything that sug-
gests in any way the probability OF
its occurrence.
Nevertheless, all possible respect Is
due those who are seriously trying to
bring to light new mineral resources.
1t is certain that there is no one
thing that would result in more ben
eft to the state Of Maine than the
discovery of oil in commercial guam
titles: it must, however. be borne
clearly in mind that nothing Will
work more injury to the mineral in
terests of the state than the promo
ton, on however honest a basis OF
belief, of any scheme to develop
something which does not exist.
The cooperation Of people In all
parts Of the state is earnestly solicit
ed in bringing out the truth Of this
matter in way that shall be con-
vincing to everybody.
II you think you have discovered
oil, send sample Of 1t to some
chemist who is competent to render
judgment (The U. s. Bureau OF
Mines, at Washington. il always
ready to reply to inquiries in regard
to useful mineral products.) 81
Deal with the man who claims to
have proof of the existence Of petro-
leum by insisting on one of two
things: 1: that the claimant shall
take some of the supposed oil from
the "seepage." in your presence. and
prove to your satisfaction that 1t will
burn; 2: that he shall. again in your
presence. take sample. bottle It,
and send it to someone who Is capa =
BILE of making an authoritative re-
port as to its nature.
Finally, the undersigned Is ready
and anxious, to visit any spot where
it is claimed that oil has been found
and do everything in his power to
bring out the truth, whether 1t COIN
cides with his present belief or not.

DOES OIL OCCUR
OF MAINE?

The question in the above heading
is treated in the following article
from the Maine State Water Power
Commission, by Freeman F. Burr Of
Augusta. its geologist and also geolo-
gist for the State: r.
This question is too important to
be passed over lightly, or without an
effort to give it every possible con-
sideration.
1t is the firm, and honest belief Of
many that oil does occur here, and
that there is no reason why it should
not be found in quantity sufficient to
make it a matter of commercial i'm
portance. Some. in fact, assert in all
sincerity that. they have found oil.
and that they can demonstrate 1t to
the satisfaction of any fair-minded
person.
From the biologists point of view.
what are the facts?
Briefly. 1t may be stated that
throughout the greatest part of
Maine there Is nothing in the nature
of the rocks or in their structure to
indicate the remotest possibility of
finding petroleum. This is not based
on theory" but on a careful COM
parison Of conditions met in produc-
tive oil fields with those which exist
here.
Furthermore. in places where oil
has been reported 1t has been ina

Of the most remarkable as we'll as
one of the most artistic plays ever
seen in Augusta. 1t is play of con-
trasts and of these antitheses, there
is none more remarkable than the
difference between Mrs. Vera Wilton
and Alice Marsh. They are twins. so
alike in face and form that they
might easily be mistaken for one
another, yet their conditions are
widely separated and so are their
characters. Ann Kingsley plays both
roles and her performance is Of the
same high standard she has set In
her other characterizations.
Mrs. Wilton has married a wealthy
man and has been provided with ev-
erything that wealth can furnish.
Her sister, trusting and abiding. has
been betrayed by a man who after
wards tries to wreck the fortunes OF
Bruce Wilton. 1t is when these ma
chinations work out successfully that
another contrast is presented, Tor
Mrs. Wilton and her husband are re-
duced to poverty.
Greatest of all the contrasts in the
play, however, is the change that
comes over Wilton himself, the role
played by Al. Luttringer. Wealthy
and secure in his social position. he
is nevertheless scoffer and unbe-
lever in religion. For all of this. he
builds church for a priestly friend
of his and here, when his fortune is
gone and he seems to have been de-
serted by the world. he finds safe
refuge and becomes a devout Chris
tan. Othr excellent work is done by
William Laveau as Father Kelley,
John Whiteman as Kenward Wright
and the rest of the cast.
