Thero ls a 'nunan Interest ?story in
Griffith, who has screened an Amer
ican epic. His work is known in
millions/-but tho mau himself ls not
known. He has kept, himself back
of the camera,,out of tho picture, hut
how that he bas made Broadway ?it
?back and look at the flinns at Broad
way prices and has got tho ?so-called
classes to drop their venerated elns
slco and Join the manses at a '.mov
i?" exhibition, the blue stockings and
men of books riso to inquire whit
manner of man is he.
In the first place, Griffith wa? horn
in La Grange, near Louisville, Ky. He
la thirty-?"ivi; and has a .'.train of tho
Celt. The blend of thc canny Scot and
the bubbling Irishman that came
down to him from his overseas an
cestry shows at times In hi? cllmnx

in the-'Civil War and tho man who
now stands at the head of his pro
fession in this country, and perhaps
the world, has., not lost .the spirit of
the old southland.
Today; nq. stages the great out*
doora'..ar?d'; blends tho purr of a klt
- ten''ty ith tho_crash of artillery, runs'
the 'whole .scale of emotion in bia
illot'portraits of life, and he gets-the
heartbodkB of tho poet and the ora
tor. /He had de algns on grand opera
when ho looked about far u career,
?li?,o;'?}.fo?nd his voice suited for the
Bpea^J?g stage. Griffith's friends say
he was'bfitter than the averago as an
act pr, but fc?; stuck to the stage , for
twOvj&$rj?and q.ult for a place with

with lt? present .startling effect. Thia

was conceived and utilized under

Urlflith'fl memory is highly disci

down in the late nights in tho stu

One statistician has figured, out
Griffith kept in mind a million ocencB,
