Crosman of Philadelphia was the oldest officer of he 1 S. Army at the time of his death. Jler uncle, Lieut.

However, the plaques sold well, and so she was a sucvess in “The White Slav Then she married Maurice Camp bell, who became also her manager. and with his guldance she became success in such plays for Daly and the Frohmans as Like It.”" “Mr. Wilkenson's Widows,” “The Junlor Partner” and “Glori anna.” In 1900 she and her husband pro duced “Mistress Nell.” Despite the opposition of the theatrical trust at that time, the play was a success and finally reached New York, where it had a long and successful rup. It was in this play that Henrletta Crox. man became nationally famous, and later in “Sweet Kitty Bellalrs” she udded to that fame. Aniong the other high lights in her career were her appearances with Sir Herbert Tree in ““The Merry Wives of Windsor” and as the greatest Rosalind in “As You Like It.” She also appeared In “The Other Man, ‘Burmah fouse of Cards,” “‘Joan of the Shoals,” “Sword of the King," and later in “Children of the Moon’ and with Grace George in “Getting Married.’ Defencls the Chorus ¢] AM a Thiladelphian, born and rved.

He ik the bull'seye when he said: “Thers is sumething about the traditions of the | show Lusiness and fits methods of | munagement that inspires employes to & spirit of carrying on in spite of 411 difficulties.’ “I was glad to read that It strikes me that the chorus girl has been maligned sufficlently as a mere but terfly upon pleasure bent. Take the Ziegfeld Follies, for example, in which 1 was given my first real opportunity after varled experiences from Phila- delphia church choir to small-time vaudevilie. “1 know the Follies girls, after two | plishment.

Rothacker | the screen is indebted for ite latest | wonder—the vivification of prehistoric | | monsters in “The Lost World.” The idea of bringing these monsters, which roamed the earth countless ages ago, into screen life was first con. ceived by Willls H. O'Brien, who re- celved his Inspiration from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's “Lost World." It was made known to Rothacker | who had the vision to see its possibill- | tles and at once began financing the | difficult project. 1le purchased the | film rights to Conan Doyle's novel, | then joined forces with First Natfonal, | which assigned Earl Hudson to super- | vise the production, and work began. It took seven vears or more from the time Rothacker started work on the movie before the last scene was filmed The monsters pictured in *“The Lost World” are declared to be just as s belleve they existed millions ars ago, for from fossil remains iried deep in the earth of the oldest | hills the story of the distant past has been pleced together with the results | as :\\n\\ n in_the plcture. with nrr’:vrp"u Priv. “aasone by 11 pm Sy Faraniisned 1900 LETTIE MARIE BARRETT i Natignally Epown Danseus Will Make You s CPerfect’ Bflronm Dancer srepto, 1210 KA 6265 | Dancing With Orchesira Monday }:"Nr;n.
