- DirectorTheodore WhartonStarsLeopold WhartonThe incidents pictured in this film are founded on fact and relate to William Scott, a young soldier from the State of Vermont. Scott is on guard after a heavy day's march, and being found asleep is placed under arrest. He is tried by court-martial and sentenced to death. Meantime we see President Lincoln in his study at the White House in deep thought, and seeing a vision of the Civil War and the sorrow caused by it. The vision disappears and he reads a letter from Mrs. Scott pleading for the pardon of her son. Deeply affected he lays the letter down and sees another vision, that of the gray-haired mother and a nameless grave. We next see being marched off to the spot where he is to be shot. All is in readiness for the fatal word of command to be given, when through a cloud of dust a coach dashes up attended by outriders. The President steps out and pardons the prisoner, who falls on his knees and blesses him. The next scene is that of a battle with the Union soldiers retreating. The color-bearer falls, but William Scott rushes up, grabs the flag and rallies the Union troops, but amid the dreadful carnage he himself is shot. That night the doctors and ambulances are searching among the dead for the wounded who are still alive. They reach Scott. He is dying. A vision of the President appears before him, giving him a wreath of fame. Scott staggers to his feet, and as the vision fades away, drops dead. As a fitting climax, we see a tableau of President Lincoln taking from a Union and a Confederate color-bearer their respective flags, rolling them together and when they are unrolled displaying the Stars and Stripes.

- DirectorJ. Searle DawleyStarsMary FullerThere is a carpenter by the name of Maule who owns a pretty little cottage in the historic town of Salem. A great man of the village, Col, Pyncheon by name, fancies this place as a site for a great house for his own family. He makes an offer of purchase which Maule refuses, he then insists upon buying whether the poor man will or no. When he meets with a stubborn refusal his wits set to work, and the days of witchcraft being at their height, he soon sees a way of accomplishing his purpose. Maule is accused of witchcraft and is arrested in his own home and dragged away from his wife, daughter and son. Then a startling scene is shown in which the carpenter is being led to the stake to be burned. The fires are lighted, and as the flames leap toward their victim we see the unfortunate man pronounce a curse upon Colonel Pyncheon and upon his house and children and their children's children. The next scene shows Maule's son, a young man, engaged upon some finishing touches in the work of the great house which Colonel Pyncheon has built upon the site of father Maule's dismantled cottage. Being left alone in the room, the son notices a grant from the king to a vast territory in the east, a grant which means the fortunes and affluence of the whole Pyncheon family. He secretes this document in a niche in the wall in the very room where he finds it, behind the great picture of Colonel Pyncheon's father. When the great man returns and misses the document he flies in a passion and would pursue the young man, but at that moment he finds himself confronted by a vision of the older Maule at the stake, his clenched bands upraised as he again seems to hurl the awful curse at the cringing rascal. The sight is so terrible that the old man falls back in his chair dead, and is found there by the villagers when they come to see the great house for the first time. Then the scene shifts to the fortunes of the family two hundred years later. The descendant who occupies the house is an old maiden woman, whose circumstances are so reduced by the lack of this wonderful grant from the king that she opens a little shop in the lower part of the house. She is not a very successful storekeeper and takes a lodger, a young man who bears a great resemblance to the Maule family of preceding generations, and who watches her unsuccessful business efforts until a young niece of hers, an embodiment of youth and buoyancy, comes to help her with the shop. Trade immediately picks up because of the young girl's fascinations, and the fortunes of the family mend a little, while the lodger becomes interested in the Pyncheon family from an entirely new point of view. It is evident, too, that the interest is mutual. One day, while he and the young girl are away for the day, Judge Pyncheon, a miserly relative and an exact prototype of the original Pyncheon, comes to the house and insists upon the family's right to have it razed to the ground and a thorough search made for the missing grant. In his search he almost stumbles upon the button which would open the space behind the portrait, but just as his finger rests upon it the ghostly figure of Maule at the stake appears above him and warns him away. The shock is too great for the old man, and like his ancestor he drops into the same antique chair and breathes, his last. When the young people return to the house they find the man dead, and that the aunt has been frightened by the happening and stolen away. She returns, however, in time to hear the young man announce his love and his right to speak of it even in the presence of death. He tells the whole secret of the story of "The House of the Seven Gables." which is that the curse pronounced upon the Pyncheons is operative until the mighty force of love overrules it. His love for the young girl and hers for him can remove the curse; and as evidence that it is gone he steps to the old portrait, pushes the button, and as it swings out, shows them the long lost grant from the king, and, raising it, places the fortune in the hands of the girl.
- DirectorWilliam Nicholas SeligStarsIva ShepardHugo, the hunchback sculptor, maltreated by his master, and likewise by Bertrand, born of nobility, and affianced to Blanca. After Hugo's wares have been broken by Bertrand, it is only by the intercession of the priest, Silveria, that he is protected from a crowd of citizens. By royal command, Bertrand is made to wed Princess Olivia, rejecting Blanca, and her child born of their love. Hugo, at the request of the priest, trios to induce Bertrand not to desert Blanca and his child, but to no avail. Upon the reporting of this result to Blanca, she wends her way to the sea, bent upon suicide, rather than disgrace. She plunges into the waters with her babe. Hugo rescues her. Twenty Years Later. Hugo, famous and prosperous sculptor; Bertrand, a beggar through dissipation. In this picture of devotion and desertion we see happiness, contentment and satisfaction.
- DirectorTheodore MarstonStarsMarie ElineGloria GallopFrank Hall CraneLeft a penniless orphan at 14, Jane Eyre is adopted by her uncle, who has ample means to provide for her and also loves her dearly. Her uncle's family considers her an intruder and do all in their power to prevent her from becoming a full member of their family, but during his lifetime she receives some degree of kindness and consideration. Unfortunately, he dies and leaves her without a friend in the world and his unfeeling widow sends her to a badly-run orphan asylum. Five years later she leaves the asylum to accept the position of governess to Lord Rochester's little niece, daughter of his late brother. Her mother has become insane and is living in Lord Rochester's home under his protection. Jane is engaged by Lord Rochester's housekeeper during his absence from home, and her first meeting with her employer is both exciting and romantic. She is sitting by the edge of the road reading when Lord Rochester rides up to his ancestral home. The sight of his huge dog, coming upon her suddenly, so startles Jane that she jumps to her feet, causing Lord Rochester's horse to shy and throw it rider. He injures his ankle, and has to be assisted to remount "the little witch," as he calls her, who is the cause of his accident. That same evening in his home, he is surprised to find that "the little witch" of his adventure is living in his house as his niece's governess. Jane's rich relations, the Reeds, visit Lord Rochester, and persistently insult and humiliate her by treating her like a servant. Lord Rochester, however, is not blind to her sweetness, nor to the cruelty of her cousin, who is trying to win Lord Rochester's hand and fortune. One evening the maniac escapes from her nurse and sets fire to the room in which Lord Rochester has fallen asleep. He is saved from a horrible death by Jane. When next Jane's haughty aunt and cousins call on Lord Rochester, they are just in time to be introduced to his bride, who is none other than the despised Jane Eyre.
- DirectorAshley MillerStarsMadame Pilar-MorinGladys HuletteThe story begins with the finding of a wonderful peach which comes floating down a small stream and is brought to shore by a little Japanese woman, who takes it to her home. It there transpires that she and her husband are still mourning the loss of a baby, and the wonderful peach when it is cut brings healing to their sorrow, for as the father's hands separate the two parts of the luscious fruit, between them miraculously appears the figure of a tiny baby. It is a real Japanese baby (which no one could by any chance mistake tor a doll) and the parents' joy is very great. We next see the boy grown to eight years of age and the object of the loving affection of his parents. On their way home from the same little river, down which he came floating in the peach, they are forced to pass a cavern inhabited by Japanese ogres, monsters of most fearful mien, half-human and half-animal. The young mother and the boy are attacked by the ogres, and the boy draws his tiny sword and vigorously defends her; but even though he cuts off the tail of the lion they are overpowered, and the monsters are carrying him away to their cave, when the mother sees a pile of stones and uses them with such good effect that the monsters are driven off and she and the boy make their escape. But he has lost his little sword in the fight, and when we see him in a later scene at the ripe age of eighteen, he is announcing his determination of going back to the cavern, conquering the ogres and recovering the weapon. His father and mother suggest that he will shake so with fear that he will be unable to carry out his purpose, but, becoming convinced of his son's bravery, the father loans him his own "honorable sword." On the way to the cavern the boy meets three friends (at least they seem to be such), each of which, on being provided a part of the food from the boy's basket, agrees to fight for him. The three friends are the ape, the pheasant and the dog. But when they reach the gateway before the cavern's mouth the first two desert him, and only the dog remains, as always, the faithful one. With his master, he bursts through the gate and they descend into the cavern. Then we are shown a scene of exceptional beauty, for the cavern is a wonderful place, in spite of its uncouth inhabitants. Its floor is littered with the spoils of many robberies and among them the boy sees his little lost sword. But now the monsters appear, their leader, a sort of wild man of remarkable agility (the part is played by a wonderful Japanese acrobat). He attacks our small hero and a typical Japanese duel ensues. Of course, virtue and courage are triumphant, and when the wild man lies slain his fellow monsters creep back into their holes in the rocks. Meanwhile, the dog, ever on the alert, discovers a wonderful box, to which he calls his little master's attention. When it is opened the youth starts back at the sight of a huge snake, but when he bravely takes it in his hand it transforms before our eyes into a magic wand and the box is filled with gold and jewels. With such success our hero returns to his parents. Their joy at his safe homecoming is turned to wonder when, producing the magic wand, he waves it and transforms their humble cottage into a glittering palace hung with Japanese lanterns through the door of which is seen a lake with swans upon its surface, while dancing Geisha girls appear in mystic figures of the Japanese dance and suddenly disappear into thin air. This transformation scene is beautiful beyond description.
- DirectorD.W. GriffithStarsFrank PowellArthur V. JohnsonMarion LeonardAn historical dramatization of a Spanish woman during the reign of Spanish and Mexican owned California in the early 19th century.
- Theseus, the son of the King of Athens, has been brought up by his mother apart from his father with the understanding that when he can wield his father's sword he can present himself to his father, who will put him to a test of valor. He bids his mother good-bye after she has given him his father's sword and goes to meet the King, who does not recognize his son until the boy shows him the weapon. In Crete, so the legend runs, lived a Minotaur, a powerful monster in human form, with a bull's head, who periodically demanded a provision of seven maidens and seven youths whom he devoured. The King of Crete had sacrificed the last of his desirable maidens to the Minotaur and sent word to the King of Athens that he must secure the Minotaur's tribute of fourteen victims from Athens or he would declare war against the Athenians. Theseus hears the demand and volunteers to go to Crete as one of the victims. His father, the King of Athens, reluctantly consents to have him go. He proceeds to Crete, where he denounces Minas, the King, and wins the love of his daughter. She aids Theseus to escape and he decides to go to the Minotaur's den and slay the Minotaur. The King's daughter goes with him and, to aid him in penetrating the labyrinth and lair of the monster and insure his return, she fastens one end of a silken thread around his wrist while she holds the other end, slowly unwinding it as he, with his father's sword, goes into the cave where he encounters the beast, kills him and cuts off his head as a trophy of his courage. With the guidance of the thread and his sweetheart he issues from the cave. Theseus, with the daughter of the King of Crete, returns to Athens where he appears before his father. He tells him his story of the destruction of the Minotaur, receives his father's blessing and presents his sweetheart to his father, who marries his son to the beautiful daughter of the King of Crete, who is delighted when he learns that the Minotaur has been slain by his son-in-law.
- A young girl who loves an unworthy young fellow, of little character and less conscience, consents to a secret marriage. After a spell he tires of her and deserts her. Through a letter he has left, she follows him to England, where she eventually traces him to an apartment, where he has been living in style and comfort. He has just received a letter from his father, who suggests that he would have him return home, where he can arrange a marriage for him with an heiress. He is just preparing to go when his wife confronts him and pleads with him to recognize and protect her, and when she throws her arms about his neck in pleading embrace, he seizes her with the fury of a demon, strangles her and throws her to the floor. Bending over the body, he discovers that she is dead. For a moment, he is overwhelmed with remorse, lifts the body and locks it in a closet. Placing the key in his pocket, he hurriedly scribbles a note to his landlady and leaves the house. The young man returns to his father's home and we see him in the midst of a gay and brilliant reception, at which he is introduced to the heiress, who receives him passively, as she seems to favor another suitor, who figures largely in the plot of the story, for it is shortly after this scene at the reception that this young suitor visits London and takes lodging in the same apartment in which the young wife was killed. Dozing before the fire, he has a dream in which the murdered woman appears and points to the closet. He cannot dismiss this dream from his mind and decides to look in the closet. The door is locked. He forces it open and finds the body of the girl. He notifies the landlady and she notifies the police, who follow clue after clue until they decide that the previous occupant of the room, who left it so suddenly, is the murderer. While these denouements are taking place, the young murderer has gained consent from the heiress to become his wife, and just as they are about to be married at the church rail, the young suitor appears with the police, stops the marriage, and the young murderer is arrested. The heiress turns in gratitude to the man who has saved her from marriage to a murderer and villain, acknowledges her love for him, and he is not slow in declaring his love for her; both plight their troth with parental benediction.
- Now, girls, if yon turned suddenly around and found a nice, gentlemanly skeleton seated comfortably beside you, would you scream or be too frightened to utter a sound? Now Martha, the new maid of all employed in a medical college, was content to juggle pans in the kitchen, but when brought face to face with the cold remnant of a past mortal, she lets out a noise that would fade the sound of a moving picture machine into insignificance, and rushes from the room only to be confronted by another and another, until Martha is a regular encyclopedia of all that is frightful. Composing herself long enough, she summons the officers, who are led to believe something bordering on a massacre has occurred, and hasten to the scene. The appearance of the skeleton cools their ardor and dampens the courage of the bluecoats and they join the merry stampede. Martha hits a street car for the tall and uncut, but our friend the skeleton bobs up again and a large hole in the car window marks the maid's hasty exit. Seeking refuge from her Nemesis, she lands in a room with no visible skeleton, but the news was too good to be true and poor Martha finds it necessary to imitate Halley's Comet and on the window marks her course, landing on a steep roof, tumbles into the bathing tank below and is only rescued with difficulty. Poor Martha had a hard time and has never reconciled herself to the association of skeletons.

- A learned professor of anatomy visits a surgical supply house, is shown several specimens of the human frame and decides to purchase, for class demonstration, a skeleton of rare proportions and perfection. On his way home with the skeleton carefully wrapped, he takes a seat on a bench in the park to rest and meditate in quiet. He starts on his way home again, absent-mindedly leaving the skeleton on the bench. Some mischievous boys come along, espy the bundle and open it. They discover the skeleton and, after their surprise, they decide to have some fun. The boys dress the skeleton in hat, coat and trousers and lay it on a bench. "Clarence the Cop" comes along, sees a chance to become a hero and drags the skeleton to the station house. The sergeant at the desk and other officers, upon the arrival of "Clarence," go to assist him, and, when they discover that he has arrested a skeleton, they flee in terror. The skeleton falls to the floor, gets up, takes off its clothes, folds them carefully, places them on a chair, performs some remarkable stunts, makes a haughty bow and, with dignified strides, takes its departure. In fear and trembling all the bravest and "the finest" return to the station and try to recover their nerve and composure, beads of cold sweat on their brows and horror depicted on their faces.

- DirectorOtis TurnerStarsHobart BosworthBetty HarteRobert Z. LeonardMiles Standish, as we all know, was a man among men, a warrior who knew no fear in battle, but who was very timid and abashed when it came to the wooing of the maid Priscilla. Therefore we see him requesting his young comrade, John Alden, to go to Priscilla and give her a bunch of mayflowers as a token of his love. John goes to her, and sincere in his devotion to his friend, tells her of the strength of character and of the nobility of the man who has sent him to her. He pleads, but his pleading has the wrong effect, for the maid loses her heart to him. But John cannot understand, and so he goes on urging the suit of his friend, explaining, persuading, speaking of the courage and skill of Standish and of all his battles in Flanders, until finally the truth dawns upon him as she archly smiles at him, and with tremulous voice, whispers, "Why don't you speak for yourself, John?" Heart-torn betwixt love for the maid and duty to Standish, John returns home. At first we find him in despair as to how to tell his friend the true state of affairs, and then we see Standish with the whole naked truth upon his awakened senses, about to plunge his sword into the heart of his young friend: "John Alden, you have supplanted, defrauded, betrayed me. Miles Standish, you friend. One of my ancestors ran his sword through the heart of Wat Tyler; who shall prevent me from running my own through the heart of a traitor?" So he speaks, and Alden, always the scholar, and yet fearless, awaits the death blow. But the scene is interrupted, for news of an Indian outbreak is reported to Standish, and buckling on the weapon with which he had threatened John, he rushes from his cabin to gather his men for action and for defense of wives and sweethearts. The scene shifts, and we see before us an assembly of men, rugged, war-beaten, determined. The council is on, debate is held as to self-protection, and extermination of the Indian is decided, unless they smoke the pipe of peace. Now let us wander to the Atlantic shores, where we see the Pilgrims delivering their mail to one who will bear it all to the home of their birth across the ocean, on the vessel "Mayflower." Again the scene changes, and we see Miles Standish, after a three days' march, at an Indian encampment, pitched on the edge of a meadow, between the sea and the forest. A parlay ensues between white and red, wherein Pecksuot tells Standish that he and his braves will sweep the whites from their land. Angered at such a defiance, Standish grabs the red man's knife and plunges it into his breast. As he does this, Wattawamat drives his own knife into the back of our Plymouth captain. A fight ensues and the Indians are driven over the embankment and into the sea. Fortunately Standish recovers, and eventually, after many hardships and physical trials, he begins to think of the maid, Priscilla, more as a daughter than as one he would wed. So he goes to her home. He sees her in the arms of the man she loves, John Alden. He, poor youth, still conscious of that word "betrayer." the last that his friend had called him, expects further rebuke, but he is mistaken, for with a smile of benediction, Standish takes the hand of the maid and the hand of the youth, and joining them, smiles his approbation of two well met, well loved, and well united.

- Hemlock Hoax thinks he can "put it all over" Sherlock Holmes, and his sleuthing is somewhat of a joke in the little tropical town where he lives. Two boys plan some fun at his expense and bring him the news of a terrible murder. Holmes is led to the scene of the crime and with measuring tape and magnifying glass proceeds to search for clues and material for deductions in the most approved detective fashion. He discovers a shred of cloth on a projecting branch and declares the murderer to be as good as found. Like the human hound that he is, he starts hot upon the scent and finds a tramp wearing the garment from which the cloth was torn. The surprised tramp develops a burst of speed that is astonishing and Hoax makes a good second. Others aid the pursuit and they are led on a merry cross country chase that ends in the capture of the tramp by Hoax and a policeman they have picked up. The trembling tramp is led back to the scene of his atrocious crime and confronted with the body of the victim. Then, for the first time, Hoax discovers that the body is merely a dummy stuffed with leaves, and the poor boys are properly punished, though not until the crowd has enjoyed a good laugh at the expense of the crestfallen Hoax.
- StarsFrank Hall CraneGeorge BarnesAnna RosemondCaptain John Smith comes to America at the head of a band of English colonists and settles Jamestown, Virginia. While at the lead of the colony Smith makes a trip of exploration into the interior, and is captured there by King Powhatan, the acknowledged head of all the redmen in Virginia. Powhatan orders his prisoner's execution. Just as the fatal club is about to descend, Pocahontas, the favorite daughter of the King, throws herself before her father. She begs so fervently that the white man's life be spared that Powhatan relents and orders his release. Captain Smith returns in safety to his friends.

They are married in a rude little church at Jamestown, and the Indian princess sails away with her husband to England.

- DirectorTom SantschiStarsRoscoe 'Fatty' ArbuckleNick CogleyGeorge HernandezCharley Wise with a Waldorf appetite on a beany salary finds himself growing unpopular with his landlord as well as other creditors. In fact the sighing breezes seem to whisper "Charley it's your move." So together with Pete, his valet, they decide upon a visit to the country to spend a few days with the rich old uncle. Upon their arrival they find Uncle Jim and Sarah are just planning a trip to Europe and the timely arrival of Charley renders it unnecessary to close up the home as he is placed in full charge with faithful Pete as his assistant and Jim and Sarah are off for the other side. Charles repairs to the race track and donates the remaining fragments of his bank roll, to the other man's better judgment. Pete hits upon a plan to open the palatial home of the uncle as a sanitarium and thus collect a few of the shining shekels that health seekers are always anxious to let loose of. Accordingly an ad is inserted in the daily papers, a sign put over the door, and the rooms are all numbered in regular order, per city hotel fashion. The patients begin to flock in like children to a nickel show. All sorts, ages, sizes, suffering from every known and unknown malady from Reno-it is to raving maniac. Pete was collecting in advance and the place in a few short hours looked more like a castle garden of Blackville Island than a country home. The money was rolling in so fast that Chas. and Pete almost went into hysteria. Just then a telegram arrives from 'Frisco from Uncle Jim saying that Aunt Sarah had lost her necklace and was returning home that night to find it. To clear the house for her coming was no small job and they encounter all kinds of trouble, compelled to return their money, which has a telling effect on Charles' ambitions. No sooner than this part of the program was completed a second message arrives saying the necklace had been found and they were off for Europe. Charles had no time to rejoice over the finding of the pearls; he was too busy thinking about the money he had found necessary to return to his sanitarium patients.
