His wonderful success with the Edison and Reliance com- panies is still being echoed through- out the picture world. As leading character man in “The Bells," "The Judge's Vfiidicatlon," "Caleb West" and “The Cuckoo Clock," he was second to none. - Michael Hannafy, who portrayed the part of Evangiline’s father Bene- dict Bellefontaine, has been identided with Miss Mildred Holland in "The Power Behind the Throne," "Friar Tuck" in Robin Hood. W. H. Cavanaugh, as the notary, has been an artist for the past six- teen years. He was coaxed into moving pictures by numerous flatter- ing offers. For three years he was working with tne Pathe Freres, where he won n, world wide reputa- tion. Arthur Morrison needs no intro- duction. He appears in the role of Basil, the blacksmith. Mr. Morrison has been identified with such com- panies as Paths Freres, Selig, Imp, Reliance, Blograph and to obtain his services the Canadian Bioscope coni- pany, limited, had to oficr him an enormous salary. But his work war- `ranted all he asked for. ` R. A. Leary, as Michael, the fidd- ler, is familiar with the theatre- goers of eastern Canada. William J. Johnston as the fat boy, is e howling success. Miss Frances Purcell, who for sev- _eral ybars has worked with Corse Payton, has been posing in pictures with such companies an Edison, Thanhauser, Re:iance and Majestic, and has had wonderful success. Gled Gillan has been associated with Lillian Russell in “Wi1dfire." Has also played important parts in “The Fatal Wedding," "Mary Jane Pa," and several other well known successes. Rhea Refuse, a resident of Halifax, graduated from the Halifax Ladies' College, where she received if gold medal for elocution. As n moving picture actress her success is assur- ed. Marguerite Marquis, the Shawnee Indian woman, has been identified with many dramatic successes such as "Human Hearts," “Little Boy Blue” and others. ...Among the numerous auxiliaries, Halifax has figured prominently with such names as J. Frank Crowe, Miss Eva Crowe, Mrs. George Refuse, Dorothy Refuse, John Refuse, Al- bert Rafuse, H. R. Isern, William Brophy, Gerald Leary, Sydney Bauld and Gerald Smith. é-_--._-_--» viclomi, B.c.
