110-YEAR-OLD NEGRO BREAKS INTO MOVIES IN AMERICA PHOTEPLAY Working the members of his com- pany in southwestern Louisiana in filming his newest photoplay produc: tion, “The White Rose,” D. W. Grit- fith engaged considerable local talent to augment his scenes. News that the producer reguired “extras” spread quickly and the descendants of the old French families in the various towns along the Bayou ‘Teche stampede to be cast for roles minor or otherwise in a Griffith pre sentation. Among the applicants was Uncle Tom Jenkins, an old ex-slave on the J. B. Le Vert estate at St. John. Authentic records in the court house at St. Martinsville, La., prove con- clusively that Jenkins is 113 years oid. Mr. Griffith had need of just such @ type and was glad to use the aged negro’s services {n a number of scenes. The strain of repeated svalkings and movements before mo tion picture cameras did not seem 4 annoy the old man. He enjoyed every minute of his work and will he one of the many in the section who will eagerly await the first pub- Mc. showings of “The White Rose,” a United Artists release booked as the feature attraction for four days stgrting today at the America theater. Jenkins is half Indian and half negro. He lives in an ancient cabin on the Le Vert estate, and proudly points out the great towering rows of pine trees that form an arched driveway up to the house as being planted by him before the Civil war. HIDE TO HELL GREAT cCENE INWNOMING PLA ‘That George Hackathorne and Har- ry Northrup, two of the best Hnown actors of the cinema, are alive to- day, may be attributed to a miracle. In one of the most thrilling scenes ever projected on a screen, these prominent players ventured almost to the brim of death and came ‘out unscathed. athorne achieves one of the worthy artistic successes of rin Mrs, Reld’s great anti- narcotic production, “Human Wreck- age,” scheduled for exhibition on Saturday at the Wyoming, theater. Northrup also acquits himself admir- atly in many stunningly dramatic scenes. The ons in which they braved death together was a mad taxi drive through the city of Los Angeles and a head-on crash into a plunging rail- road locomotive. It is called “the ride to hell." and according to critics who already have thrilled to its blaz- ing action, it 1s no misnomer. Hackathorne as an addict taxi- bh Has Your Back Given Out?

He gets him as a fare in his taxi and then begins a wild ride through the teeming downtown streets of Los Angeles—unquestionably one of the most thrilling scenes ever flung upon a@ screen. Hackathorne and Northrup re- mained in the speeding taxi until just before the crash and how they escaped death without serious injury is best revealed on the screen itself. pe Seacrest Bh “TEMPTATION” GLOSES AT THE IRIS TODAY Years ago a writer of popular songs achieved fame and fortune through a song which began: “If I only had a million dollars"—the song sold in hundreds of thousands of copies because it voiced a popular thought. In “Temptation,” a super feature playing at the Iris for the last times today, Lenore Coffee, well-known as a screen author, has given to two of her central characters a million dol lars and surrounded them with every conceivable luxury. Do they use it for the purpose of finding true happiness? Do they allow wealth to go to their heads? It is in the development of this theme that Miss Coffee has written a story that will absorb photoplay patrons. “Temptation” brings to the screen five stars who are prime favorites with the people of this city. They are Bryant Washburn, Eva Novak, June Hlvidge, Phillips Smalley and Vernon Steele. Edward J. Le Saint directed the production. LIST SHOWING TODAY OF “SILENT PARTNER” The final showings of the Para- mount picture, “The Silent Partne: at the Rialto theater, will take place today. Leatrice Joy, Owen Moore and Robert Edeson are the players featured. Charles Maigne directed the production, which is an adapt- ation by Sada Cowan of a story by Maximilian Foster, The supporting cast is thoroughly capable.
