As an attraction extraordinary the
Arcade theatre tonight and tomorrow,
will present Mary Pickford in a new
Artcraft picture, "A Romance of the
Redwoods," staged under the personal
direction of Cecil 'B. DeMille.
A western subject of full-blooded,
dramatic action, the new Pickford ve
hicle presents "Little Mary" in a role
that is entirely different from any
thing in which she has ever appeared
on the screen. The story was written
! by Mr. DeMille himself in collabora
jtion with Jennie Macpherson and dis
closes a wealtn 01 typical ficKiora in
cidents of heart appeal. The settings
are of the days of '49 during the time
of the big gold rush. Mary Pickford,
as Jenny Lawrence, a little New Eng
land Miss, journeys to the west in
search of her only relative, an uncle.
Before she is aware of it, she falls in
love and as a result, becomes en
meshed in serious complications. Var
ious clever twists to the story afford
surprises that add greatly to the gen
eral merit of tho picture.
"A Romance of the Redwoods"
links together the arts of two of the
greatest notables in screenland, Mary
Pickford and Cecil De Mille. The tal
ents of either one used in connection
with the production of a photoplay
would mean a subject of unusual mer
it. The combination of both repre
sents the nffilation of the screen's best
artists. Not only is Miss Pickford's
wonderful charm included to advant
age in her new picture but a dramatic
finesse such as she has never before
displayed on cither stage or screen
is also apparent. In addition to this
remarkable Pickford characterization
there is presented tho art of DeMille,
creator of "Joan, the Woman," the
famous screen spectacle, and other
cinema triumphs. 'Staged at tho new
Lnsky qtudios in California, the pro
duction offers various innovations in
motion picture technique that are only
possible as a result of the novel in
stallments of this model plant, under
tho supervision of Mr. De Mille. Sup
porting the star is an exceptional cast i
including Elliott Dexter, Charles Ogle,
Tully Marshall, Ravmond Hatton and
Winter Hall.

GRAD BY RAILROAD
Winnepeg, June 11 (United Press)
A through railway route from the
United States to Petrograd by way
of Canada.
This ambition of United States cap
italists has been outlined in a lengthy
report to the Winnepeg Grain Ex
change. The scheme has been con
sidered for some time and negotia
tions with tho railway and the gov.
emments which will be involved in
the project will be opened in the near
future.
ilncreased transportation to the
westward without running the risk of
submarines sinking ships, and assist
ance in the war for Russia with mu
nitions and food will result if the pro
posed connection is established.
The plan provides for a standard
railway line, connecting United States
roads through British Columbia and
Alaska with Bchring strait and a line
from the Siberian coast to the Trans
Siberian railway.
Large ferries would carry freight
and passenger cars across the 56 mile
wide strait.
Negotiations have been opened with
the Russiani Government to improve
the Trans-Siberian railway into ,a
modern road instead of a primitive
stretch of track overburdened by war
transportations. The United States
commission to Russia will take up
that phase of the proposed line with
the new Russian Government. ,
Men back of the undertaking be
lieve that within a few years an inter
national railway will connect New
York with Petrograd. They are tak
ing into consideration the possibility
of the war lasting several years. The
promotors of tno project are satisfied
that future benefits would justify the
vast financial outlay that will be
necessary. They declare that a few
years of world peace would make it
the most important railway route on
earth.
