| | RSSO am—— TRAINS BRINGING MANY TO CITY TO SEE BIG PICTURE (Continued from Page 1) fied tensity caused by the news of her brother’s death to the portrayal of a storm of violent, helpless hatred which leaves her wide-eyed and star- ing. Scarcely less effective is the bril- liant acting of Lilllan Gish in the part of Elsie Stoneman. For those who have seen her in this play she will never be any other person than Elsie Stoneman, no matter what part she attempts. Miriam Cooper capably carries the spirit of contrast throughout the ac- tion by remaining carefully different from her vivacious and hot-headed little sister. She is in every one of her scenes the deep feeling but un- demonstrative elder sister, and proves a most effective foil for the impetu- ousness of Mae Marsh. Ralph Lewis, as the bigoted leader of the house, Auston Stoneman, rises to dramatic hights, and gives a remarkable im- personation of Thaddeus Stevens, the historic character of which Stoneman represents. Credit to Griffith. Another pair of players worthy of consideration are Mary Alden as Stoneman’s mulatto housekeeper, and George Seigmann as the mulatto lieutenant governor. Mr. Seigmann especially is correct in both type and characterization for the popular con- ception of the leading heavy part. All credit is due to David Grifiith, the director, in his choice of types for the characters. Joseph Carl Briel should be men- tioned for his careful selection of the music which does so much to embel- lish the production, while in the photography the work of G. W. Bit- zer has never been surpassed. JEFFERSON HIGHWAY REPRESENTATIVE TO INSPECT ROUTE HERE (Continued from first page). that the route selected will be of the greatest value to the state and to the traveling public who will use this great north and south international highway and they desire to make the selection in such a way that there will be no ground to question the judgment and fairness of those re- sponsible for the selection and to this end the greatest possible pub- licity will be given to the inspection trip and the utmost opportunity af- forded the advocates of each route to present their advantages. To Be Scored. “To assist in reaching a correct conclusion, each route will be scored upon the number of definite points, among which will be: “1. Wealth and population of the territory traversed by the highway. 2. Hotel and garage accommoda- tions. ““3. Present condition of roads, whether improved or unimproved. ‘4. Total mileage of each route. “5. Soil conditions as affecting road construction; topography of the country as affecting grades and avail- ability of road building material suit- able for construction of 365-day roads. 6. Scenic advantages and points of especial interest. “The officers and directors of the Jefferson Highway feel that the as- sociation is in a sense responsible to the tourists which the highway -at- tracts, and in the discharge of their duty in adopting a route, they must not be influenced wholly by local considerations, but they must keep in mind the greatest good to the greatest number. Even what may be best for the state of Minnesota, is not altogether controlling, since all of the states upon the highway have an in- terest in the selection of the route in each of the other states, in order that the entire highway from New Orleans to Winnipeg may be the very best possible. Put Routes in Shape. “We suggest that those interested put their respective routes in the best possible shape. As Minnesota directors, we are extremely anxious that each route make the best show- ing possible. “We suggest also that each route elect its official representative who will accompany Mr. Clarkson over all three routes, and send their names and addresses to the above named Minnesota directors. It should not be understood that the attend- ance will be limited to the one rep- resentative. The one elected will be the official representative, and he will ride with Mr. Clarkson and the representatives of the other routes. A dozen other cars may go along if they wish, but they must provide their own cars, and look out for their own accommodations. “We helieve this plan of disposing of the ppesent contests is absolutely fair and ought to prove satisfactory to all.” HOW TO ANSWER BLIND ADS.
