Miss Edyna Davits.
"Going Into stock Is. In a ma
jority of cases." says Miss Edyna
Davies, the leading lady in "Baby
Mine." which comes to the Heilig
Theater next -Thursday, Friday
and Saturday, "the result of a
desire of an actress to learn to
memorize quickly, add to her
repertoire and perfect her art.
There is no line of work In
the world where mentally and
physically a woman's strength is
more genuinely tested. The lines
of her part and the lines of her
gowns are in her mind always.
Sh"e has nearly twice as much
work to do in a week as the
leading man. He takes his part
home and studies it; his tailor
keeps his wardrobe in order, his
gray and his brown business suit
and bis dress suit, say and there
his worries end.
"Most of the real hits, whether
on Broadway or the Pacific Coast,
the last few years have been
made by recognized stock actors
or actresses." -
Socks Found in Box Set Under Ele
vator Dock Fit Suspect' and Tar
on Clothing and on Kindling
Material Strengthens Theory.
I slipped up on some things I told
you and I lied about others," was the
admission yesterday of Ernest: W. Mills,
alleged fire paranoalc, to Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Robison when being
taken through the harbor and ques
tioned regarding the part be is sup
posed to have played in the burning
of Oceanic dock July 6. A - former
statement that he had never been near
the waterfront was corrected by him
yesterday when he said he had been
in an East Side saloon near the river
two or three times. It was there he is
alleged to have said that he enjoyed
seeing the firemen work.
Mills was taken on the Port of Port
land launch Marie with C. A. Robinson,
Deputy Sheriff. Detective Maher, acting
for the San Francisco Board of Fire
Underwriters, and Harbormaster Speler.
In a dry box, filled with kindling and
rags soaked with oil that Harbormaster
Speler found beneath the Elevator dock
in August was a' pair of black socks,
which were the same size as a brown
pair worn by Mills at the time of his
arrest for the Hotel D'Moy and Powers
furniture store fires. He first denied
having worn black socks, insisting that
he bought only tan, but in his trunk
were found other black ones.
He said he left a restaurant, where
he was employed, at 9:30 o'clock the
night of July 4 and might have gone
to a picture show, but was not abroad
after midnight and said if the Oceanic
dock watchman identified him as a man
seen there about midnight or later he
was mistaken.
Deputy District Attorney Robison
said that the prisoner's admissions that
he had falsified and the fact that he
had been caught in other untruths, had
caused him to believe that Mills was' in
volved in the waterfront cases.
There have been rlo recurrences of
suspicious blazes or the finding of plies
of kindling along the beach since Mills
was apprehended, yet dock owners
have not relaxed their watchfulness.
The box found beneath the Elevator
dock was preserved by Harbormaster
Speier In its original state and besides
the feature of finding the socks there
the officers think tar on the kindling
tallies with that on the knees and seat
of a pair of trousers belonging to
Mills. The prisoner explains the pres
ence of tar on the trousers by saying
he fell from a bicycle "out near Mon
tavilla." ART GLASS BUSY SOON
