to Ortpmo 8. Wnke, an American engi
neer, who mi In the Interior of the lelnnd
when the trouble broke out. Uoth rebel
And Federal troops, according to Mr.
Blake, resorted to the most barbarous
anetna of torture Imaginable In order to
btaln rum and extort military secrets.
Mr. Dlake, who la a native of Ilarrls
Ttvrn. relumed from Haiti last week. He
has been In this city several days on a
Inline trip, and left for tfew York yes
terday afternoon preparatory to return
ln to the turbulent Island. AlthouKh
only a young; man, his profeoslon has
netted him considerable expel Itnco In
the ever-Tatrlng republics of Central
America aa wen In Haiti.
When Interviewed at the Bellevu. Strat
ford Mr. Blake modestly related his part
In the miniature war. He declared that
deepite his thrllllnc adventures he docs
not wish to be resnrded as a nre-cator,
nnd Is more than thankful to have
nMcaped with his life.
O "At the outbreak of the trouble." Bald
. he, 'I war In tho Interior of the Island

Aiself was my French assistant, who was
K later killed by tho rebel troops.
FJttED ON FHOM AMBUSH.
Trouble, like rain In Haiti, comes sud
denly. The first Intimation wo had of
1 hostilities came In the form of- an am
buscade, While returning to camp one
evcnlntf we were fired upon from the
brush, and the next thing we knew we
Were surrounded Dy n moo or niooa
., thirsty blacks. I thought it was ah ovor
i With me, my assistant having received
bullet in the head as a result of the
Srst volley.
' "Wishing to exact as much toll as pos
sible for the poor fellow's life, 1 drew
' my revolver and discharged It at an oili
er oer, or what I thought to bo an officer
from his uniform. I then emptied tho rest
" ot the chambers into the mob. After that
, prayers Deemed to mo to bo appropriate
for the occasion.
"To my surprise, however. Instead of
llrlns upon me, nn order was given by
a 'largo black who appeared to be thg
leader, whereupon several of the troops
' seized me and gave mo tho beating of
my life. I was then bound hand and
foot, but given to understand that my
life would be spared and that I would
be escorted safely to Port au Prlnco.
Strange aa It may seem, they made good
their promise, desplto the fact that sev
eral of the officers wero In lavor of
f hanging the American after they had be
come drunk.

'TIjfi fate of my blacks was sealed from
, JkvSf THpse who had not been shot
lire reserved for torture, ns the lender
"Xof the rebels susDected that wo had
money In samp, six of the poor wretches
were made to suffer unspeakable agony
before being finally put to death, Tho
fll-Bt victim, after having the soles of
his feet charred, was tossed upon bayo
nets. Another, because he could not tell
the whereabouts of loot that did notex
ist, had his mouth pried open, his tongue
pulled out by a pair of pllorn and then
Amputated. He was left to bleed to
death.
"The other four men were even more
brutally tortured. One of them waa
bound and thrown across a slow tire.
"At daybreak we started on our two,
days' hike to Port-au-Prlnco. My hands
and feet were untied and I was per
mitted to march under guard at the rear
of the column. Toward evening of the
flrat day we arrived at a small settle
ment, and after looting the natives of
all their mm an article valued more
than Uvea vr dollars In Haiti the shacks
were fired and the natives driven Into
r the Jungle.
"Just before our arrival In Port-au-Prince
we were met by a large force of
Federals. My self-appointed protectors
' Immediately dispersed and Jeft me to tho
mercy of the victors. After considerable
qo-Mtlenlng by all the officers of tho
staff I was escorted Into the town and
Ttven my liberty," ,
According to Mr. Dlake, Haiti will only

GRIFFITH'S INDIAN
PHOTOPLAY ACTORS
The Careers, Work and Ideals
of Two Very Distinctive
Actors
By THE PHOTOPLAY EDITOR
The two chief Indian players at the
Orimth const hondquartrrs, the Bellance
Majestic studios, are In decided contrast.
Datk Cloud Is nn Amerlcnn, who acts
before the camera to give permanency to
the traditions of aboriginal America
which havo come down to him from his
forebears. He has so broadened his art
In doing this that he Is able to appear
not only as nn Indian, but as a member
of almost nny dark-skinned race. While
he Is an artist, too, yet ho admits that
his real purpose Is to aet ns a screen
historian for his people.
Eagle Kjc, Ihc other principal nboilg
Inal placr, on tlio other hand. Is an
nctor and nn nrtlst, mire nnd simple. He
HUllir HI1U till iVI VII.1, UJIi: illlll o, ,,,,,. , ..
not conccn himself w,th ultimate
motive, hut Is content with tho Joy
,
ol
trcatlvo nrtlstlc cxprcxslon.
The two men entered motion pictures
In widely different wajs. it was purely
an ncclrtrnt In tho case of Kngle Eye, who
found hln.jelf virtually penniless In n
New Mexl"o town. Tourists liked hW
Indian get-up. The showman In him Im
mediately came to tho surface nnd he
charged 10 cents inch time he posed for
n tourist's enmcra,
Dnrk Cloud, on the other hand, np
preached tho screen stage deliberately
wllh tho purpose Mated above.
Kugle Ko Is n full-blooded Apache. He
wns born on nn Indian reservation near
Snn Cnr.or, In Arizona, In 1S70. Ho re
mained on the rrscrvntlon until 1RD7, when
the aclor'a Instinct developed within him
so tronKly that he could not resist It. Ho
Irlned n strolllmr Indian trouno and plated
' through tho West He had been noted
ns n dancer nmong his own people. He
used tho Indian dunces with the troupe.
An engagement with "Huffnlo Illll" fol
lowed his first venture. Engagements
with other wild west shows. led him fin
ally to the doors of motion-picture
Btudlos. t). W Grlfllth saw Eagle Hyo
nnd thought him a splendid type. His
future was then assured.
At the P.ellanco-Mnjcsttc studios Eagle
Eye hns specialized In dnrlng feats. Ho
falls from galloping horsea, leaps seem
ingly Impossible, distances, falls safely
down what Easterner.) would consider
precipices, leaps from moving trains So
whenever Mr. Grltnth or his aides require
an Indian feat of exceptional daring.
Eagle Eye Is ono of tho first of whom
they think.
Both Eagle Eye and Dark Cloud are
well-read men nnd speak far better Eng
lish than tho avcrago , American of n
later race.
Dark Cloud Is of great assistance to
tho directors In all matters pertaining to
his race Practically every Indian pro
duction of cither the Reliance or Ma
jestic Company Is brought out under his
unolllclnl direction. His wife, Dove Ee,
and his baby, Prairie Flower, frequently
appear, as In "The Arrow Maiden." They
aro carefully coached by Dark Cloud.
Further evidence of the keenness of
the competition between big motion pic
ture manufacturers comes in the steps
being taken by Carl Lacmmle. president
of the Universal Film Company, to In
crenso the capital Btock of that concern
by $1,000,000. so ns to permit tho widening
of the nlrendy big scope of the activities
of that corporation
Developments In the picture business
have come fast and furiously within tho
last few months. The entrance of tho
new f5.000.000 Equltnble Corporation Into
the field In conjunction with the World
Film, the reorganization of the Mutual,
with Its JS.000.000 capitalization, and the
forming of tho Trlanglo Company, with
iO.OOO stock, by Harry Aitken, D, W.
Grllllth, Thomas H. Ince nnd Mnck Sen- j
nett, all previously prominent In the Mu- .
tunl; to say nothing of the projection
Into tho field of other lesser, but still '
large, concerns, renders It necessary for i
every manufacturing company to strain
every cnori ro remain among mo leauers.
William Wilson, of this city, who has
been featured with many of the stock
companies throughout the country, has
been engaged for leads by the Lubln
Company. Mr. Wilson Is an excellent
portraycr of heroic roles, as well as of
more everyday types. Ho has also been
successful In vaudeville and played for
several seasons In "The Club Woman,"
