Mr. Farnum asked Mr. Santschi when they were ready to play the fight scene which oc curs in Strove' office. Mr. Santachi replied that he waa not and at the same time asked Mr. Farnum If he wanted to make it a real fight. . Mr. Farnum replied that he waa very anxious to, so they went at it with the result that you will gee one of the most realistic en-' counters that was ever put in a play. A battery of five cameras was trained on , the pair and not an Incident was lost. A whole mining town was' bought .and blown to pieces, thirty vessels were chartered, in fact everything was done to make this one of the most realistic pictures ever staged. - The taming of a primitive man by a sweet, innocent girl is the big crux of this romance that ig carried out with simple, sympathetic deftness, and the contrast between Cherry Mai lotte and Helen Dexter is another tremendous ly fascinating force in the story.
