Gifted Author
of "EveryWoman"
Died Tragically

The showing of the lavish picturi-

morality play. 'Everywoman," which
will be at the Augusta Opera house
on Friday and Saturday, recalls the
tragic circumstances of the death of
the gifted author. Mr.. Browne. was
a newspaper reporter on a prominent
New York daily. His burning ambi-
ton was to write a great play for
the stage that would be something
wonderfully different and would live
forever. He conceived the brilliant
idea Of Transforming the old morality
play Of the sixteenth century into an
elaborate modern counterpart. The
conception of "Everywoman" grew
in his brain and became a vi
tal-living thing. He worked upon
it feverishly for years-every mo-
ment that he could spare from his
newspaper duties-writing, revising
and polishing. 1t became an obses-
sion with him, and his life was bound
up with the success or failure Of his
great venture. a.
At last it was finished and in the
managers hands. The latter saw it's
immense possibilities at once and en-
Enthusiastically went about the staging,
Mr.. Browne assisting. The author
worked for weeks upon the prepara-
ton for the initial performance, help
ing in the selection Of the cast, the
construction Of the great settings,
and the cutting and final revision of
the play. At last it was ready and

GREAT STORY
AND BIG SCENES
IN "THE HOPE"

There have been white hopes and
black hopes and possibly hopes of
other hues, but 1.-The Hope" Is differ
ent from any of these. This Is Met
70 super feature that will be seen at
the Colonial theatre this afternoon
,, and tonight and it is one Of the best
time.
Experience has shown that English
melodrama so long favorite on the
, other side Of the ocean and in this
country can be fashioned into an ex-
cellent screen production. 1.-THE Hope"
which Is the work Of those two ex-
pert craftsmen, Cecil Raleigh and
Hamilton, has been produced by Met
70 with Jack Mu1hall and Ruth Stone
house as the featured players. 1t
contains a number of sensational
scenes. the principal of which is an
earthquake in Italy. This effect is
extremely well done and serves as a
means of sending the william where
he will have no further opportunity
of plotting against the hero and his
sweetheart.
Like most properly constructed
English melodramas, there is a great
amount of interest attached to a
horse race in the picture which gets
its title from the thoroughbred that
saves the fortune Of his master by
coming first under the wire.
The story of 1.-THE Hope" has the
merit of not being too complicated
for the screen and of permitting a
straightforward development of the
plot. The director has caught the
spirit and the atmosphere and the en-
tire cast is neatly balanced.
The tenth episode of "rhe Invisi-
BILE Hand" will be presented today
and there will also be a Paramount
Magazine to round out the excellent
program-Adv.
