"&REE/WR99/A- J9fTI4&£< One of Edgar Allan 1'oe's stories is being dramatized for the "Mutual Movies." Literature and the films are getting more and more on "speak- ing" terms. Wallie Van was knocked down by an automobile on Broadway, but nothing happened but a bump on the head. Wallie can be identified in a certain film by the bump. Arthur Johnson, in "The Last Rose," returns to the character of a country clergyman, which suggests his early successes. Florence Lawrence says: "Fate seems to bind me to old-maid char- acters—but it really is fun doing them." Jack Kerrigan and AVallace Kerrigan both took part in a wedding. Jack was only best man, but Wallace was the groom. "It pays to have experience in tumbling down precipices," laughed Mary Fuller, as she and Dick Neil untangled themselves from an unpre- meditated fall downstairs. William V. Ranous, who was one of the first directors at the Vita- graph studios, has again returned to his first love. Nolan Gane, recently recruited from the legitimate, is playing leads with the Princess, opposite Muriel Ostriche, the youngest leading lady in pictures. William Taylor, formerly leading man in the Vitagraph Western, has just joined the Balboa Company. Mr. and Mrs. Phillips Smalley celebrated the tenth anniversary of their wedding last month. They are now prepared to open a store for the sale of wooden ware. Florence Lawrence is soon to appear in a gripping drama, entitled "The Doctor's Testimony." Harry Benham (Thanhouser) is making himself comfortable for the summer and is hard at work on a sleeping-porch, which he is building unaided, stringing wires for electric lights, painting the interior and put- ting glass in, that he may view Arcturus ere he closes his eyes for slumberland. Harry works far into the night, but when the festive mos- quito will hunt for Harry this summer, it wont be able to locate him. If you want to get decidedly popular with a player, write him or her to help you get a position. Every player gets hundreds of such requests. There are two remarkable things about the result of our Great Artist Contest to date. One is that Marguerite Clayton, who is Mr. Anderson's clever little leading woman, has passed Alice Joyce, and the other remark- able thing is that the relative position of nearly all the other players remains about the same as it was previously. Dollie Larkin. formerly with Edison, Melies, Pathe, Lubin and Powers, is now with the Frontier Company. John Bunny once "supported" Maude Adams. Unless his form has changed since then, it's lucky things weren't reversed. Schoolteacher, actress, doctor's wife and amateur detective are a few of the roles Peerless Alice Joyce portrays in the dramas which are to appear in the Alice Joyce series. "Oh, yes," sighs the lovable Kalem star, "Motion Picture work is so easy!" Harold Lockwood nearly had his eye put out recently by a sword- thrust in a duel in "The County Chairman." "Bull Durham," who disappeared from the New York Baseball Club right after a big hit, has come to light—only now he is a Keystone comedian and is showing the Californian M. P. League what's what in baseball. Sidney Drew's branch of the Vitagraph Company are now at St Augustine. Alice Joyce and Tom Moore have married—Florida the place— last month the time—at least, so the newspapers say. 127
