For a week and a day Hollywood furiously gossiped about Bill, and the papers were filled with it. One afternoon, Bill announced that he intended to shoot the attorney on the other side the next time he said anything derogatory to his character. Since then a large silence has enveloped the proceedings.
Bill did not stipulate whether the shooting would be done with the revolver used by Davy Crockett, or the derringer that Col. Bowie carried, or General Custer’s six-shooter.
But what he said was evidently enough.

With her usual shrewdness. Mary Pickford will probably send to England for actors to take the parts of such royal personages as Mary Queen of Scots and Queen Elizabeth when she makes a picture of “Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall." Miss Pickford points out that it would he impossible for the public to take seriously any film actress with whom they are familiar as Queen Elizabeth. In the audience they would be poking each other in the ribs to exchange hoarse whispers like: “Do you remember her in that washlady part ?’’ The illusion would he completely destroyed.

It is filled with trophies of his Indian days, when he was a boy among the Sioux. In the dining-room hangs an enormous tanned cow buffalo hide upon which is painted the life history of Chief Red Cloud; in the living-room is a pipe that Chief Plenty Coups used at the treaty between somebody or other. The house is strewn with blankets, each one of which has a history. At the first landing of the stairway is a stand bearing Bill’s silvermounted cow-saddle ; on the next landing is a cabinet with revolvers of famous scouts. Any museum would pay him a fortune for this collection, but it didn’t make much impression upon a jazzy young bride who had been a pal of Dorothy Gish and Constance Talmadge. You can imagine the horror with which Bill heard her suggestion that the precious pipe over which Plenty Coups arranged a treaty with Sitting Bull be heaved out into the garret.
