Brulatour. The Blaohe picture producing plant In Fort Lee, N. J., lias recently been enlarged by the addition of a new factor?, which la eald to be one of the most perfectly equipped for tbe developing and printing of nits of nay in the United States. The old factory Is rapidly being remodeled to fornlah addi- tional spue for dressing rooms, offices, etc., aud tbe new features will be produced In tbe Fort Lee plant under the direct supervision of President Blache. Thfi Maurice Costello Theatre, located at S3 Fort Washington Avenue, Manhattan. New York City, and named for tbe celebrated Vltagrapb -motion picture star, will be opened rilxiut May 2. It Is a new building, faced with white terra cotta, seating about eight hundred, and is planned to be the prettiest moving picture theatre In the city. The management Is making every endeavor to oticn the house ■with "Mir. Barnes of New \orlc," which Is now being shown at the Vltagrapb Theatre, and Id which Mr. Cos- tclio Is adding new laurels to his world-wide reputation as a screen actor. John E. Ince, leading man and director at the Lubln studio, after witnessing bis latest effort, "The Greater Treasure," by lithel Glenn Hall, claimed that It Is tbe best nnotodruma In which be has ever appeared. The story teaches a moral lesson—Money Is not everything. Tbe several situations were handled ably by Director Ince, and bis gifts as an actor are no loss than bis art as a pro- ducer. Few people know tbat the John ince of the photoplay is bhe John Ince who comes from a family celebrated in tbe uunala of the American stage, and that he is the brother of Thomas II. and Ralph Ince, of the New York Motion Picture and Vltagrapb, Companies. John Ince made his first ap- pearance In front of the camera a year and a half ago, and soon proved hlmaclf a photo- flayer of power and promise. Some of bis best known photoplay successes are* "The Price of Victory." "The Taking of Rattle- snake Bill," "In the Northland," ^'The Crown- ing Glory." "Officer Jim," "The House of rear," "The .Mansion of iSobs" and "Will Wood Tell?" The American Klnoto Corporation has done extraordinary business of late.

There Is every prospect that tbe 'feature film, en- titled "Czeniow.ika ; or, a Woman's Treach- ery," will have a lino sale. Posters on thl9 subject are very strong and very uncommon. The film Is a line portrayal of Russian life, embracing all the tragedy for -which Russian dramas aro notorious. Tub Sedeg Feature Film Co. continues to do a big business with its Funtomns scries and other features. Assistant Manager Roy L. Frank Is helping out at the Buffalo office, owing to the extended -bookings up State. Tub American Klneto Corporation report that It has sold tbe New York State rights, exclusive of Greater New York, to the Sedeg Feature Film Co., of the live-reel production, '■The Mystery of the Fatal Pearl.''

Tub Indianapolis office of tbe Sedeg Fea- ture Film Co. is now booking in Indiana and Kentucky all of the "Pantomas" pictures released by the Gaumont Co. Tbe character of "Fantoinas is apparently as well known In Indiana as it Is In Now York, whore it | layed for four weeks on Broadway. This Is evident by the exceptional good bookings through tills iState. The exhibitors of New York have shown their appreciation of Sedeg Features to such nu extent that it has become necessary for them- to inaugurate a day and night force in order to cotter handle the many ship- ments.

A -helpful factor "In the production of He- llnncc and Majestic Mutual Movies Is Walter Stanhope assistant to David W. Griffith, the head producer of these 'two brands of motion pictures. Though called an assistant. Mr. Stanhope In Mr. Griffith's alter ego during working hours, and working hours sometimes occupy nearly 'all of the twenty-four. Mr. Stanhope Is In every way an able lieu- tenant. He weeds out the persons who wish to sec Mr. Griffith, interviews callers helps with scenarios, assists In directing ana some- times plays parts himself. Mr, Stanhope has conlderable experience in motion pictures and on the stage, where his lost conspicuous part was with Wilton Lackaye, in "The Battle." He has been con- nected with the Lubln Film Manufacturing company and the Blograph Company. When Mr. Griffin quit producing the Btogrnph successes such ns "Judith, "The Battle of Elderbrush Gulch" and 'The Messengers" In order to make Reliance and Majestic Mu- tual movies, he secured Mr. Stanhope as bis assistant. Mr. Stanhope prefers motion pictures to the stage as a form of entertainment. He thinks the greatest motion picture ever pro- duced Is "The Escape," a Griffith Mutual movie, which will soon be put before the public. Mr. Stanhope's greatest ambition Is to become another David W. Griffith, and he rays, with a Hue touch of humor, tbat his favorite amusement la "watching a player from the speaking stage trying to act for motion pictures," Chikf Sr.nABTiAN, «f the Los Angeles, Cal., Police Department, has placed the en- tire force at the disposal of the Reliance and Majestic Mubuul movie producing forces, W. Christy Cnbanne will utilize tbe courtesy In a coming feature police drama, which will show the force in all Us branches at work. Russell E. Smith Is the author of the sce- nario. "Tub Horse Whanoler," another of the famous Western stories of George Fatullo, Is now being produced In motion picture form by Jack Adolifl. as a Reliance Mutual movie. - Mr. Pntulin, who is an authority on Western matters, has expressed himself as highly pleased with the way his stories have been visualized by the producing forces of the Mutual Film Corporation. Trie latest motion picture actor to Join the ranks of the directors Is Donald Crisp, of tbe Reliance Mutual Movie forces, form- erly with Blograph. He ihas lust completed "The Newer Woman," a comedy on the new woman question, the scenario of which was written by Russell 13. Smith. Dorothy Glsh, Hobert Harron and Mr. Crisp, himself, play the leading roles. ARTHUR ROBINSON AND CHARLES DAVENPORT BADLY BURNED WfllLE TBSTINO FIREPROOF (t) SUITS—THAT WERE NOT. Charles Davenport and Arthur RoMnion, the inventor of a supposedly fireproof as- bestos suit, both of whom are motion picture actors, were badly Domed about the face and hands April 21 while rehearsing a fire scene Id Hackensac. N. J. The plot of tbe photoplay, It seems, railed' for the burning of a hotel, from which structure the two actons were to escape. For this purpose Robinson had provided himself and com- panion with the asbestos clothes invention, which be believed he had perfected. Evi- dently the fireproof suits were not so much so. Inasmuch as they signally failed to pro- tect at the crucial moment, with the result that both players were removed to the Hod- eon Count/ Hospital. Later advices Inform ns tbat both are doing well at the present ■Ilini.r Bye, the famous Indian motion pic- ture actor appearing in Reliance and Ma- jestic Mutual Movies, is upholding his repu- livt made by Ones, is soon to bo ready for bonking by George Klelne. Tbe story has a distinctly out-ant he-ordinary plot, and Is conspicuous for Its Interesting situations and swift action. A prosecuting attorney, sub- ject to spelts of temporary meutal aberration, and a dear friend of a judge, murders tbe judge one ovenlug while strolling down tho street. Another man is accused, aud the prosecuting attorney, with no memory of ws deed, turows himself vigorously Into the prosecution. How a scientist untangles tho ekeln of destiny is not only unusually in- teresting, but highly scientific. * TniL Olhiciiman has Just returned from Canada, having nindo arrangements to open two offices in Toronto and Montreal for tho World Film Corporation. "Jonn of Arc" is to be the first release through these olllces, to be followed by "The Triumph of an lini- pernr." Arrangements arc being made to Market one film weekly, "In Search op tub Castaways.

Viiih produced with tho active co-operattnu mul collaboration of M. Michael Verne, tho gifted son of the jrreat Jules Verne. • iicconniKO to a report received from Eng- land. "In Search of the Castaways" bids fair to act up a new record for the Eclnlr i firm. tatlon as a "fall expert." Recently he did a seventy-five foot drop for a picture, and then got up and did It again when It was neces- sary to repeat the scene. CAMEHAG RAPHICS, The First Baptist Church of Poughkeepsle, N.
