However, there may be those who in anticipa- tion of such things, overlook the @reatest of achieveménts of this master artist in screen production. Griffith seized upon "Way Down East" and paid a pretty sum for the sereen rights alone, not for the spec- tacular opportunities it offered. Any play that can enjoy a vogue among American theatregoers for a period Of more than twenty years possesses something more than pastoral hu- mor and striking scenes and "Way Down Bast" has even in times when most stage offerings 'had hard sled- ding. 'That the pure love of Anna Moore, her betrayal and subsequent suffer. ings were the big thing in "Way Down East" and is what has made it endure through all these years, there ean be no doubt. It was this that ap- Pealed to David W. Griffith in select- ing it as his medium of production. Her story is that of a woman from tme immemeorial and Griffith has Spared no effort to bring this forth in all the strength of his vision and art.

The Frontenac ventu from its winter quarters and hms the shore-line, in the path made by the Steamer Wolfe Is- lander until it reached Richardson's wharf, where it took on coal. The tug Bronson bravely struggled with the ice in the harbor centre, intent on breaking a way clear to the open water. Apparently the ice 1 quite thick in the centre of the har-! bor, as the Bronson could only pro- Lgross a few feet at each attempt. Un- less a thin stretch is reached in the ice, the job undertaken by the Bron- son' is almost a hopeless one, for a few niore days at least. The path broken by the steamer Welfe Islander has helped greatly in clearing the harbor, and the wide Stretch of open water between the city and the island is due to the ice- breaking abilities of the ferry boat. Near Macdonald park there is very little ice, but the main portion of the harbor remains, hard and fast. | } s stil Ninety one persons have been slain in New York since the first of the Year, according to records in the of- fice of the chief medical examiner. -------------------- MORE MINERS Af WURK In West Virginia Mines Than When Strike Called, v Charleston, W.V., April 5.--More men were at work in the, mines of Southern West Virginia than when the strike was called, the Coal Op- orators' Association declared to-day, while President C.
