Th attack on the fore, the mass- acre. The blowing up of the powder magazine—everything—combines to make this feature one of the notable ones in the career of Maurice Tour- neur. The gentle love of Uncas for the paleface maiden, and her regard for him, and the way the story turns out, piuses one to stop and think. ““The Last of the Mohicana' 'is finé- ly visualized by ‘excellent characters with the master hand of Tourneur ever off-screen, guiding them smooth- ly in their varied actions. The cam- era work, scenic ‘effects, and won- drously gorgeous settings are all as- tonishingly beautiful, and the picture is bound to please the many patrons of this popular house. Having already been shown to a few in. this city, there is no doubt as point, and is it recommended to all, young and old.
