Elbert Hubbard's Last Words on Mo tion Pictures Elbert Hubbard, shortly before he went to his death aboard the Ill-fated IaisI- tanla, wrote to the Sellg Company, nddlng his testimonial to the worthiness of the motion pictures: He wrote: "I do not drink, nor smoke, nor chew, but I spend ten cents or a quarter to see motion pictures at every opportunity. The motion pictures cheer but they do not Inebriate. They lubricate the wheels of existence, rest, refresh, stir the Imagina tion and they never give you that dark, brown taste tho day after. "For most of tho Ilia the human race, Is heir to, try the motion pictures. They are Jefferaonlan In their simplicity. You slip In and out and tho whole thing Is free from frills, fntla and fusslness. You al ways gel your money's worth. "Motion pictures are the greatest edu cational factors of this day nnd nge. They show one-half of tho world how tho other half lives and bnnloh Ignorance and superstition Through motion pictures wo are getting acquainted with tho world and the world Is being brought to our doors. Our desire to know Is satisfied be cause the motion pictures show us. "No criticism enn bo brought against the motion pictures that cannot bo brought with equal truth against books. There aro good books and there are bnd books and it Is exactly so with motion pictures. Oood people only wish to see the truthful and worthy nnd as we grow better wo will have better motion plc- hires. And I, for one, bellevo the help ful and tho true nre coming to the foro on tho motion picture screen." A Heal Movie Heroine rtuth Gtonchousc, the pretty Essanay actress, now with tho company at Chat tanooga, Tcnn., saved a baby from fire which broke out In the Inn where they are making their headquarters. ' Miss Stonehouso tmelled smoke nbout mid night. She rushed Into tho hall to find everything at one end of tho hotel In a blaze. Every one, waB trying frantically to escape. Miss Stonehouso heard a child cry In the next room to he,r and discovered a baby which had been overlooked In the scramble to escape. She picked up the baby and fought her way through the smoke In the upper hall to the second story. There she found her way cut off and mado her way to a window, from which she Jumped with the child In her arms. She was half suffocated with smoke, but otherwise escaped Injury. And the Cat Came Dack Usually the brothers Franklin, the two Keith's A mtlo a mlnuto without n stop would be a fair description of "A Regular Bul nesa Man," which held the' Interest of a 'crowded house at Keith's. This efferves cent sketch affords Douglas Fairbanks an opportunity to "leave himself out" to tho limit, and he does. Those who saw the little comedy before- would undoubt edly enjoy a second look. You don't havo to wait for It to begin. It starts as soon as Mr. Fairbanks enters and throws his coat on the office chair. The business man Is u dreamer. He arrives late at the office and smiles at his stenographer, i Patricia Colllngc. She reminds him that he owes her four weeks' salary; also, that the office rent is due. She declares -she'll leave, but the business man coaxes her to Btay. The disgusted stenographer, who Is also his fiancee, agrees providing the boss will got busy right away. He Is Inspired Immediately and promises to make a, thousand dollars In the next hour. He phones all around town and finally a lawyer offena him t!M0 to dis possess a poor woman who owes two months' rent. Tho schemer explains that a client wants the woman's prop erty, for which there Is an ofTer of $20,000 if the tenant cun bo driven out. Tho business man agrees, but he Is con dolence stricken when the very woman, whom he la engaged to evict, calls to re turn 1100 which ho lost. Thereupon ho takes up the woman's side of the argu ment, paya her rent and compels the other lawyer to buy him out. Mr. Fairbanks Is supported creditably by Miss Colllngs Frank Monroe and Isa bel West Bay Eleanor Ball Is what the musicians would call a "soul-stlrrlng vlollnlste." She held un the proceedings considerably .because the audience wanted to hear -her entire repertoire. Tho Avon comedy Four have the knack f!f putting over some loud comedy in a lean-cut manner. In addition they havo . voices which blend without noise. A s ur. prlia was given by Harry and Emma ' Sharrock, who In addition to handing out a Una of comedy, did some actually clever mind reading. Charles Ahearn's bicycle, auto, animal and airship act Is a storm of fun, He appears to carry a cast of 60, and a garage full of autoa, not to mention a Zoo on wheels. Tha concoction is blended with good results bnd ends with a heart breaking race of Red Devils. Krnest It. Ball, the semposer of many sopg hits, delighted the audience with his famous songa.

But tho other day tho brothers lost alt their dignity, and this is now: It wns necessary to make Borne close ups of n cat for tho Majestic childhood picture, "Dirty Face Don, or Detcctlvo Dick's Second Case." To find n cat that would photograph to tho best advantage was a task, but they finally got tho cat nnd placed It on tho bough of a tree. Tho camera man was clicking awny nnd everything was going splendidly when a dog appeared. Instantly tho feline player rushed out of the picture. Tho Franklin brothers did not wish to seek nnothcr cat and they decided to stick to this one. Stick they did. Tho chase led around several blocks of city streets, through n park nnd across a small stream. Eventually, Kitty stopped. A diplomatic saucer of milk ended the Incident. Marie Dressier at Lubin's With tho arrival nt the I.ubln studio this week of Mario Dressier, rated as the funniest woman on tho stago to day, the Lublfi company launched tho first of a number of big comedy plans on which It has been working for some weeks past Miss Dressier will begin work at ono on n feature comedy pic ture, written expressly for her, in which tho famous comedienne will have plenty of scope to display her unique ability as a funster. An unusually strong supporting com pany has been engaged for Miss Dressier, headed by John C. Hlcc, the widely known comedian. Howell Hansel, who haa achieved an enviable reputation as a producer, will direct the picture. The Lubln company Is sparing no efforts to make tho DresMer comedies the best ever filmed. Tho majority of tho scenes will be mado nt the big Lubln ranch at Betz wood. Pa., where theru is every facility for making exterior and Interior pictures. For the last few weeks a large staff of artists and designers have been prepar ing special scenic effects In the studios on the ranch, to be used In tho Dressier pro duction. gram. They played the nlra of today and yesterday and won repented encores. Jules Mcrron, the little German, who is also an authority on agricultural sub jects, won many laughs with his mixture of stories, songs and cooking recipes.

HARRISBURO, Juno I. - Governor Brumbaugh this afternoon announced that he had signed 11 Senate bills and vetoed five. Among those signed were tho Palton bill, authorizing the sale by cities of tho first class of their bonds to sinking fund commissioners of such cities without ad vertisement In certain cases, and the Mc Nlchol bill, authorizing the park com missioners of first class cities to pur chase or otherwise acquire farm lands nnd wood lands adjoining any public park within such rltics for park purposes wherever. In their opinion, such lands shall bo necessary for tho Improvement of the parks nnd providing that the total acrcago of land so taken shall njt ex ceed 1000 acres The Governor vetoed Senate bill No. CSS, giving exclusive Jurisdiction to tho Municipal Court of Philadelphia over all houses of detention established within tho limits of the city of Philadelphia, providing that the board of managers shall bo nppolnted nnd removed by the President Judge of the Municipal Court and repealing nil acts Inconsistent thereto. "This court," says tho Governor, giving his reasons for tho veto, "very naturally and properly should have the power of oppilntment referred to, but power should bo given to the court nnd not to one member of the court. This procedure Is fundamentally unwise." The Governor also signed the McNichol bill, changing the spring registration dates in first nnd second class cities from tho nlnUi to the tenth Thursday nnd from tho eighth to the ninth Tuesday In odd numbered years. Other bills signed Included: Patton bill, permitting wives or hus bands In case of drunkenness or pro fligacy to consent to the adoption of their children.
