Joseph Rrooks. famous theatrical
mumiKcr. who becjune known to the
general public as the producer of
"Pen Hur" and "'In Old Kentucky"
Jumped from his home on the eighth
floor of a New York apartment
house and was Instantly killed. He
was iv victim of nervous prostration
due to overwork.
Jay Hunt at Cosy Tuesday ami Wed
nesday. One has only to look at Jay Hunt's
latest production, "The Black Sheep
of the Family,v to see that after all
in motion ploturea just as In every
thing else in the world experience is
the one qualification that counts. The
picture that is mentioned is a five
rive, reel Red Feather feature pro
duction that Li a real play in every
sense of the word. The explanation
Is very simple and It lies in the fact
that Jay Hunt is a. real director.
Hunt was born In Philadelphia
and started out to be a lawyer. This
did not suit him and after several
trials of other pursuits he at last
struck stage. There he was emi
nently successful and after a time
was sharing dressing rooms with
such stars Cothern, Skinner and John
Mason. He later was stage director
for Sothern and wrote a number of
successful plays. In 1914 he Joined
the Vitagraph forces as a director
and In the summer of 1915 came to
the Tniversal where he has been ev
er since. The fact that Mr. Hunt has
at prsent a large company of play
ers under him and Is occupied in the
production of five reel features speaks
for Itself.

llot, a negro, 28 years o, who was
sentenced to the penitentiary March
27 of last year to serve 1 years for
murder in the second degree, will
leave the prison at Jefferson City to
morrow. He was paroled today by
Governor Major to J, D, Perry Francis
of 451 Maryland avenue, son of David
R. Francis, ambassador to Russia.
Francis gained the negro's reloaso.
When asked by a Post Dispatch re
porter about it he said:
"My only interest In the man comes
from the fact that his mother has
been my laundress for 12 years and
a darned good one. I did know the
etalls of the crime he committed, but
I have forgotten them."

took effect, when the older negro

Although Dorothy Dalton, who Is
appearing at the Temple in "The
Vagabond Prince," today and tomor
row, was born and reared in Chica
go, she never had been "slumming"
in her life, until she went to San
I Francisco, recently, to enact some
scenes for one of the Ince plays.
She accompanied H. B. Warner and
a company of players to the Bay City
during the production of "A Vaga
bond prince," the Triangle-Kay Bee
play by J. G. Hawks, in which War
ner is the star, and while there the
opportunity to fee a bit or life she
had never seen before presented it
self. Giblyn went to Sap Francisco os
tensibly for the purpose of photo
graphing scenes aboard the boat, but
arriving there he realized that he
had to produce a number of scenes
within a ''Barbary Coast' dance-hall.
"We'll get some good atmosphere
and suggestions by going to 'the
coast,' " he thought, and mentioned
the fact to members of the com
pany. They promptly agreed with
the director, Hnd the entire company
started out to "do" the "coast."
"I have read about people going
'slumming." said Miss Dalton to
Giblyn, while the party was wending
Its way ilbroueh the maxe of dimly
lighted streets and alleys, "but I had
no Idea that this was what It was
like. I'm Just a trifle 'skeered."'
The "atmosphere" of the "coast"
is said to have aided materially In
the production of the dance-hall
scenes. , i
