Chicago ZOOMING into the movie from the out^ side brightness, she was as blind as a bat, and that, of course, is why she sat down in the man's lap. We, who had become accustomed to the darkness, saw this at a glance and did not need the explanation she gave in a shrill, nervous whisper. "I beg your pardon!" she cried, bouncing up like a rubber ball as soon as she struck and turning to him with awful confusion. "It was so dark I couldn't see!" Then the girl who was with her moved up two seats, and as she sank down again, she said in an awe-struck tone, "Oh, Clara, I sat in that man's lap!" "Hush!" said Clara, lifting her face for a moment from her handkerchief. "Hush! I saw you! You are going to be the death of me yet, Katie — you and George ! Look at him ! Anybody can tell by his face that you have disgraced the family at last!" And down her face went into her handkerchief again. The man whose lap had been sat upon picked up his hat here and sneaked out, and the man called George, who came in with them, sat down with an air of the most outraged dignity — he was so stiff that he made the proverbial poker ashamed of itself — and Katie, who was evidently his wife, began explaining. "It was Clara's fault," she said. "I thought, of course, she had left room for us, and when she stopped, I sat down. It was so dark I couldn't see." "Because Clara stopped is no reason in the world for you sitting in a man's lap," he replied, with cutting sarcasm. "I didn't mean I sat in his lap for this reason or for any reason. I didn't intend sitting in his lap at all" "Then why did you do it?" he interrupted. "Oh, I didn't do it, and you know it. I" "You need not trouble to deny it, for you did do it ! If you didn't, why did you apologize to him, and why are you trying to explain it to me?" "Because I am trying to make you see exactly how it was," she cried; "but I can't do it, because you are a man, and a man never will see anything except something nobody wants him to see." "So you trusted to the darkness to hide this from me, did you?" "You are a perfect brute!" she cried, almost in tears. "You know I did not sit in that man's lap on purpose — in fact, I didn't sit in his lap at all. I merely struck it, and as soon as I did, I jumped right up. The man knows I did — he knows I didn't want to sit in his lap. Oh, you are enough to run a woman crazy ! I know the asylums are filled up with women who are married to men just like you ! And I wish — I wish" Here the girl called Clara dried her eyes and came to the rescue. "Dry up, George, and don't be an utter ninny! I did it for a joke. I sat down next to the man to mislead Katie. She is so absent-minded, I knew she would sit in his lap — I've set traps for her before — and I just couldn't resist the fun of having her do it and seeing you glare. But I didn't know you'd make such a fuss as this. 'The lords of creation,' indeed! Men are nothing but great, overgrown babies, and they'll never be anything else. Now, dry up, so I can get some sense into this picture." We Greet Mark Twain At last we are to have the joy of seeing Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer and all the other amusing characters of these inimitable books of Mark Twain on the screen. The rights were obtained from the Mark Twain Company by Samuel Goldfish, for the Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play Company. There are those of us who have sighed because there were no more of them, and because we had already read the Mark Twain stories again and again. To know that we are to see them on the screen adds a fillip to our imaginations that will give us something to look happily forward to in the near future. Cecil de Mille will supervise the Mark Twain productions, and the Lasky Company will send players, camera men and directors into the Mark Twain country, at Hannibal, Mo., where still exist the famous caves, homes and even the remains of the whitewashed fence that Tom Sawyer beguiled his friends into doing for him, under the impression that he was doing them a favor. A Sage-Bush-Thorn Here is a curious and interesting coincidence. In the Anna Little-Tom Chatterton Company the camera man's name is Sage, the property man answers to Bush, and the assistant director writes himself down Thorn. Be it remembered that the company is putting on Western photoplays, and the names are curiously well adapted.
