DIG ATTRACTION
IS BOOKED FOR
SUNDAY NIGHT
_
I). W. Griffith’s $2,000,000 spectacle,
"Intolerance," which tho critics of I
■ New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, San
Francisco and other large rltles have
proclaimed the most pretentious and
marvelous production ever shown on
any stage, will be shown at tho Em
press on Sunday night
In “Intolerance" Mr Griffith, by
presenting four stories almost slmul
taneously, an Idea of his own, de
parts from all known methods of dra
matic construction. In fact, this novel
mode of expression is said to be the
only new Idea in story-telling for the
stage conceived hy man In the last
2,000 years
"Intolerance” deals with four groat
periods in world history, and, though
Its four stories are absolutely differ
ent, yet the passions depicted in all
are the same. The victims of intoler
ance in the thrilling story of modern
American life have their prototypes
in the tale of France when Catherine
do Medivl wrought the massacer of
the Huguenots; in that of Jerusalem
when the mobs demanded the sacri
fice of the Nazarene: in the one about
ancient Babylon, when the priests of
Bel avenged slights to their idol by
delivering Babylon into the hands of
Cyrus the Persian.
The French scenes are said to he
like pages of Dumas come to life;
those of Judean like vivified paintings
of Tissot: and no great pen or brush
has ever made Babylon the magnifi
cent so real as the new art of which
Griffith is the acknowledged master.
Neither time nor expense were spared
; to make this stupendous spectacle
i the last word in cinema art and pre
senting the work to the public there
is further evidence of the producer's
ambition to achieve the unusual in
| the playing of Illustrative and slgntfi
I cant music by a large orchestra and
in solo and chorus singing. ' c e ’•
pany of stars of the film world, a
bewildering array of participants in
i all sorts of scenes of strife, and cele
i bration. love and laughter, historic
rites, feasts and revels, contribute to
the onward rush of this master's ere
atlon.
PRBEBMAN SENTIMENT
IS EOUND IN IRELAND
—
DUBLIN, Sept, 18—A remarkable j
i story illustrating pro-German senti
ment in Ireland was told at the Cavan
Assizes. Sergeant O’Reilly of the
Royal Dublin Fusliers had fought at
Mons where he was made a prisoner
by the Germans After three years
as a prisoner of war he was returned
to Ireland and stated that Irish pris
oners who could not be Induced by Sir
Roger Casement to accept the Ger
man offers had their rations cut down
and were subjected to torture.
This interview, as was given in evi
dence, caused local hostility against
the sergeant, because it was “an un
kind aspersion on the Germans" whom
the Irish neighbors of O’Reilly de
scribed as “decent people." The in
dignation resulted in the burning of
the sergeant's dwelling house and fur
niture and the case came before the
court to assess damages for malicious
injury. Judge Gibson awarded sixty
pounds remarking, "The burning was
a cowardly and treacherous act, and
it makes me sick to think that per
sons calling themselves Irishmen
I would be guilty of it."
