ANNA CHRISTIE A
HIT IN LONDON
British and Continental theatre-go
ers apparently have acquired a dis
tinct taste for the American drama
in recent years. Some of the biggest
successes of the London stage have
come from American playwrights.
Eugene O’Neill’s “Anna Christie” is
the most recent London success and
is declared by London critics to be
the biggest drama of years and “to
have subdued London in a manner to
which theatrical history has no par
allel.” Such tremendous interest was
aroused in the play during its run
that especial interest is felt in the
picture adaption which has been
made by Thomas H. Ince with Blanche
Sweet, replacing Pauline Lord, the
F
stage actress, in the title role.
Mr. O'Neill’s work has the ring of
actuality, and one is gripped at once
by the fidelity of the picture of sea
and waterside life from the moment
! the curtain rises on John the Priest’s
I dull and sordid saloon. The picture
{is one of the best that has been
I seen in Seward. You should not
miss it.

Chamber of Commerce to order today
following the conclusion of the regu

inclement weather.
A communication was read from E.
Marion Crawford, a Los Angeles at
torney, asking for information about
Seward, relative to locating here.
A communication was received from
the Jones Music House of Sand
Point, Idaho, asking if Seward had a
music house, and other data.
Delegate Dan Sutherland telegraph
ed to the Chamber relative to oil
land locators, asking for an expression
of opinion as to whether locators pre
ferred to have cancelled permits put
up to drawing by lots as provided for
in general regulations or to leave
them open to relocation in a manner
similar to that in relocating mining
claims. Mr. Urbach was appointed a
committee of one to ascertain public
sentiment in regard to same. The
telegram appears in another part of
the paper.
The Valdez Chamber wired asking
the Seward Chamber to protest the
abandonment of the military cable and
telegraph line over the Richardson
Highway. It appears that the Signal
Corps contemplates the abandonment
of the present land line believing the
business can best be handled by the

ferred to a committee for action.
The feasibility of the secretary’s
securing an office to transact business
in the coming summer, was ended by
Clerk Whittlesey offering the use of
