WILD WEST TEATS
CROWD THIS SHOW
Few people realize the feats of dar
ing that are performed in making
moving pictures, in which the actors
make thrilling hair) breadth escapes
by field and flood, over beetling cliffs
amid the mad water, or while daring
life and limb ond .outlaw horses or
among the carnivora of the Jungles.
Belig's latest picture of life in the
West, called "The Law and the Out
law," records more deeds of daring
than ever before witnessed in a mo
tion "picture play.
. it is recKonea mat "Duiidogging" a
wild steer is about the most intrepid
act tnat falls to the lot of a cowboy,
but an even more dangerous experi
ence comes later in this play when.
stunned by the brain-bruise from a
bullet, the hunted outlaw falls out
of his saddle and his foot catches in
the stirrup and he is dragged over
the ground until he manages to twist
nis booted foot free.
This is the acme of daring in tak
ing unusual risk. The foot caught in
the stirrup has led to more deaths
for horsemen than a ay other form of
equestrain danger. There is no de
lusion in "The Law and the Outlaw,"
and it is the most realistic twn-nwi
Western special ever released. It
will first be shown here today at the
Grand Theatre.
