160 THE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE F. O'M., 'Chicago. — If you saw Raymond Hackett and Eleanor Blanchard in a recent Pathe" you should consult an oculist. They were not ever with Path6. A. H., Orlando. — Pathe's "A Tragedy at Sea" was made in Jamaica Bay, New York City. See the August issue for the other question. Anthony, New Orleans. — Look elsewhere for "Western Hearts." We think you've seen Miss Nilsson in Kalems, and did not recognize her. Look for "Jim Bludsoe," released August 30th. She is still with Kalem. The fact that players appear in the same production does not argue matrimonial relationships. Think of the terrible mix-up that would follow were this the case. We know some people who play lovers who do not even speak, except in the pictures. Acting is a business ; not one grand, sweet love-song. F. L. R., Stamford.— You beat Flossie. Mr. Bunny played the part mentioned because the company cast him for it. J. F., Vancouver. — Edward Boulden was the patient in Edison's "Dr. Brompton Watts' Age Adjuster" (which is not a bit like the title you give). The mother in Essanay's "Broncho Billy and the Girl" is not cast, but we think it was Mrs. William Todd. J. S., Butte. — The twins, in the Thanhouser of that title, are the Fairbanks Twins, lately a vaudeville act. B. H., Montana. — Edison's "A Winter Trip Thru Central Park" is classed as an educational, and no cast is recorded. If we kept track of all the previous engagements of the photoplayers, we would have to hire five more typists, hire a hall, and spend a couple of .months' salary for more card catalogs. If the lady looks like the lady you think she is, she probably is. The player whose picture you enclose is Miss Helen Lindroth. We do not place the Selig title. J. H. P., Kelso. — Brinsley Shaw was the husband in Essanay's "Broncho Billy's Gratitude." The tall puncher is probably Augustus Carney. Edwin August is with Lubin now. B. T., New York. — Raymond and Albert Hackett were the children in Lubin's "The Spoiled Child." Why do you ask Biograph questions, and you more or less a regular? M. H., Buffalo.— William Clifford was the sheriff in Nestor's "The Sheriff's Roundup." E. S., Milwaukee. — By "written story" we infer you mean Photoplay. Send a stamped envelope for a list of addresses. Vitaphan. — Sometimes we get discouraged. Here we've been telling that Bunny is abroad playing "Pickwick Papers" for the Vitagraph, and you sob out that he has gone and wented from the company. Say not so. He's still on the Vitagraph pay-roll, and when you see those Pickwick pictures, you wont regret the drop in releases due to his travels. Stuart Holmes was Roost and Miss Eileen Erroll the manicure lady in Kalem's "Bucktown Romance" and "The Gent from Honduras." F. H. N. — Miss Loveridge was for a short time with the Biograph during their stay in Los Angeles, but the Essanay needed a lead and she was loaned them. She is now with Bison, as she is a resident of Los Angeles, and was unwilling to cross the continent to New York. Your others answered before. I. B., Brooklyn. — Ray Gallagher was Dick in Melies' "The Cowboy Kid." D. * S., Vancouver. — Here is the full cast of Lubin's "Divine Solution" : Manuel Garcia, Edgar Jones ; Pedro, Franklyn Hall ; Juanita, Clara Williams, and the Padre, Ferd O'Beck. D. 609. — That's lots better than "Interested" or "Constant Reader." In American's "The Haters" the sick man and his nurse were Jack Richardson and Miss Pauline Bush. In Essanay's "The Indian and the Child" Arthur Mackley was the father. Others answered long ago. .. Flossie C. P. — You cant fool us with a change of name. Miss White likes to receive letters, but she has no time to reply to all, or even a part. Write, but do not look for an answer. We have not the information at hand on that Crane Wilbur. Los Gatos. — Next time sign your name and we'll use the initials only. In Reliance's "The Miser's Daughter" Miss Gertrude Robinson was his daughter and Henry Walthall her fiance. In Lubin's "The Soldier's Return" Romaine Fielding was the soldier. His sweetheart was Miss Frances Gibson. T. R., Buffalo.— The rules require a stamped envelope for mail questions. A stamp is not a stamped envelope. The said envelope should be self-addressed, too. You'll have to subscribe to get the colored portrait of Mr. Anderson. That supplement is sent to subscribers only. The Anderson section of the Essanay Company is now in Niles, Cal. Here's a little suggestion. When you want to get mail, do better for an address than "T. R., Buffalo." The only T. R. who gets his mail without a street address is living in Oyster Bay. not Buffalo. Admirer. — The Selig Katzenjammer Kids are two midgets, Guy Mohler and Emil Nichtberg. Mr. Bushman made his picture debut with Essanay; Miss Walker with Vitagraph. F. H., New York. — The Reids have not been pictured in our gallery. Harry Myers has not left Lubin.
