NEW YORK, July $9.—Thomas Meighan, who started out to be a doc. tor, but who became one of America best-known stage and screen person- alities, is dead. ‘The “Miracle Man” of the silent screen succumbed last night at his Great Neck, Long Island, home after an illness of more than a year. He was 57 years old. Meighan was born in Pittsburgh of well-to-do parents. He first demurred at suggestions cf a college education, finally consented to study medicine at St. Mary’s College at Baltimore, and then spurned such a career to carve his own success as an actor. His star, although it declined with the advent of the talkies, never eclipsed. He made few pictures after 1927, and in the last seven years re- tired twice, only to come back each time.

C, Meighan's farewell to the work he loved, Death ended his expressed hopes of another comeback. Shortly after the picture’s release, in January, 1935, Meighan was stricken with pneumonia, and from that illness he never recovered fully. A year ago he underwent an operation for re- moval of a bronchiai tube obstruction, and a few months later went to the West Coast for a rest and treatment. Two weeks ago he became critically {ll. His wife, the former Frances Ring, who also won fame on the stage, was with him at the end. She is a sister of the actress Blanche Ring. Funeral arrangements have not been completed. Besides his widow, he is survived by a brother, James Meighan of New York. A tall, laughing-eyed Irishman, Meighan made his stage debut as a stock company player, and as long ago as 1900 starred in a play on Broad- ‘way. Married Frances Ring. It was in the run of “The College Widow,” in 1907 and 1908, that he fell in love with and married Frances Ring. Later he appeared in the same play in London. Meighan deserted the stage in 1916 for the fledgling movie industry, and shortly afterward made what probably was his greatest success, “The Miracle Man,” the picture with which his name thereafter was linked. He reached his peak of popularity in 1925 and 1926, and was one of filmdom’s highest-paid stars, with a contract re- putedly calling for $10,000 per week. Among h pictures were “The| Prince Chap,” “The Easy Road,” “The ICity of Silent Men,” White Star 10c¢ an 47 ¢ -v»e 19¢ 3= 19¢ Fruit Imported THURSDAY, “Homeward ' JULY 9, 1936. Bound,” “Male and Female” and “Tin Gods.” His stage successes in his earlier years included “The Return of Peter Grimm,” “Broadway Jones” and WAS CAPITAL VISITOR. Meighan Spent Many Months Here as Brother’s Guest. Thomas Meighan had spent many months in Washington as guest of his brother, James E. Meighan, long a resident here. The latter now lives in Hagerstown. The actor’s last visit to the Capital, according to friends, was two Summers ago, shortly before an illness that kept him confined in hospital many months. While in Washington, Meighan never sought the limelight, lived in the quiet of family life, and only occasionally strayed downtown to visit some star of the stage passing through, or playing a week’s engagement at one of the local theaters. Consequently, few peo- ple in Washington came to know Tom Meighan, though he was the friend of many theater managers in the old days, notably the late Harry Rapley. Cell Operates Escalators.
