OUR LOCAL MOVIE PLAY TONIGHT

The play at the Liberty Theatre to- night is of unusual interest to our town folks because many of them appear in it. Hearts of Alaska" was produced here because of the wonderful scenic value of the surrounding country. MT. George Edward Lewis, who produced the play, is an old time Alaskan travel CT and during his many trips through the country kept on the lookout for suitable movie locations. The tremen- duous financial success throughout the states of all Northwest and Alaska plays give MT. Lewis the ide1 that a strictly true Alaskan play produced wholly in Alaska would be winning proposition, and to test the possibili- ties he decided to produce small play as a forerunner of a big professional production under high class director. The play shown tonight is the small one, and while perfectly evident a miniature creation, nevertheless went big in those few Oregon cities in which it was exhibited. The play is under con tract to go on one of the big circuits in the States beginning the first of September. Mr. Lewis is at present working up the big production and we hope in the interests of Alaska that he will be successful in carrying out his plans.
 Miss Gladys Johnson, who is the star of the play, is accompanying Mr. Lewis on this tour. She is an accom- plished cellist and will give a selection accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Lewis, just before the feature of each show.
 So that everyone in Seward may see the play, it will be run twice, beginning at 7:15 sharp.
 The following Seward people are in the cast: Roy Blue, Patsy Ray, My-le Tallasen, Betty Balderston, Fred Rapin E. E. Chamberlain, Harry Ellsworth, Bill Patterson, Thelma Ellsworth, Wal lace Daykin, Don Carlos Brownell

SEEM TO PROVE CONNECTION
Stone Implements Found in Chile and

Be Identical.

Scientists are given something to
ponder over by the assertion of Rich
ard Franklin Pettigrew of Sioux
Falls, S. D., former United States SEN
ator, upon his return to the city from
four-months' trip along the west
coast of South America, that stone
implements representing the stone age
in Chile are exactly like number of
stone hatchets, axes and other nipple
ments recently found in the hills along
the Split Rock and Big Sioux rivers,
ten or fifteen miles east Of Sioux
Falls.
Pettigrew states that doctor who
is studying prehistoric man at San
tiago, Chile, gave the implements to
him. Il was intensely interested in
the resemblance" !. said Pettigrew.
