MISS ANGLIN
In A NEW
DRAMA

It was just rs years ago that
Margaret Anglin came TO New
York from Canada, quietly and
unobtrusiveIy, unheralded by press
agentry and with her debut in
the last revival OF Shenandoah"
at the Academy Of Music, placed
herself in the ranks of those
actresses who are labeled 'ar-
rived"
No less an authority than the
late Charles Frohman predicted
brilliant stage career for Miss
Anglin. a prediction that is more
than Justified by a resume Of the
portrayals to her credit. Refer
to any complete theatrical guide
and therein you viii find the
story OF Miss Anglin's stage tri-
uInphs, which includes her memoir
able creation OF the role of Ruth
in "The Great Divide" in. which
she co-starred with Henry Miller.
Although Miss Anglin's appear
ance In Shenandoah" was fol-
lowed by engagements as leading
lady for James O'Neil, e. II.
Sotherr and Richard Mansfield,
her most thorough training was
acquired with the famous Empire
Stock Company, with which she
played several seasons, rapidly
ascending from here into the
zenith of the theatrical firma-
ment to twinkle as q fuil-fledged
star.
In 1909 Miss Anglin returned
from a successful tour Of Australia
and entered into the production
and managerial side of the thea
ter with her presentation at the
Savoy Theater of The Awakening
of Helen Ritchie."
Shakespearean productions and
Greek plays have claimed Miss
ATlglin's attention during the past
few seasons. The fact that she
has not been seen hereabouts of
late does not mean that she has
been taking a flyer in the
motion picture world.
Miss Anglin is now starring In
'"1Security'' which will be pre-
sented at the Shubert- -BelascO
/ Theater, for one week, beginning
Sunday, March 5.

HERK PRAISES
PURPOSE OF

"The ways of life most readily
can be Illuminated by humor

that for the past six years has
been carried into the homes of
the 120,000,000 people of the
United States by the Mutual
Burlesque Association.
Simply stated it means that
. life is made brighter happier,
and more enjoyable by humor
and burlesque And this Is pre-.
cisely the objective OF Mutual
Burlesque. says /. II. Herk, the
entertainment magnate.
.Shorn of it's show elements.

cislisn and viewed solely from
the standpoint of creating hap
piness, these shows have proved
the accuracy of the statement
quoted above.
aBurlesque no longer Is re-
garded as g. negligible factor in
American amusemerts. 1t has
acquired position that must be.
and is, reckoned with by all
classes of theater-goers. by the
newspapers, and by the people of
all degrees in all other branches
of the amusement industry.
"As projected by the Mutual
Burlesque Association, it does
tighten and brighten and make
happy 'the ways of life in a
manner peculiar to itself. and in
a way that 'procures the great
est happiness for all greatest
numbers as one thoughtful
writer has expressed it,"

N. $, DI5C0VERtR IS REPORTED TO BE TOTAL
 LOSS OFF POIN[ GORE

AS far as can be learned noth- ing authentic has been received directly from Capt. Heinie Der ger, of the M. s. Discoverer, which was reported today as having hit a rock off Point Gore and sank.
 The report which circulated to- day as having been received by the wireless operator on the s. s. Satrr, was to the effect all paSsen- gers and the crew were saved but that the boat and cargo was to- tai loss.
 Another report had it that Cap tain Berger had reached Seldovia but if such was the case it is as- sumed, providing the private wire less was in operation, a radio would have been dispatched here by him.
 AUTHENTIC INFORMATION
 Later today H. s. BalderSton, of the Bank of Seward, informed the Gateway he had received a radio from Seldovia which contained the following information:
 The M. s. Discoverer struck a rock at 1:30 a. m, Friday, April 5, Is miles southwest of Point Gore. At 3:10 a. m., the decks were awash. The radio also said that Captain Berger was leaving Port presumably yesterday for the scene of the wreck on the vessel Wyoming.
 The radio did not indicate the DiScoverer was a total wreck at that time and it was thought all on board made it safely to Port lock in one of the Discoverer's dorieS. MT. BalderstOn stated the vessel, which was on it's first trip of the year after being remodeled Ut great expense in Sattle, was we'll covered by insurance.
