PAGE FOUR. “THESTRANGER” SHOWS STRENUOUS FIST FIGHT Motion picture sets of today are supposed to be more or less sturdy affairs, but nevertheless a chair hurled tn a flerce hand-to-hand fight in the Paramount picture, ‘The Stranger,” pierced and dented one wall of an interior set so seriously that it was necessary to replace the entire section. The fight is between Richard Dix and Robert Schable as Larry Dar- rant and Walenn in this Joseph Henabery production, which will be shown at the Rialto theater today. And it’s all because of Betty Comp: son, featured with Mr. Dix, Lewis Stone and Tully Marshall in the pic- ture, whom Walenn had attacked. It's a great story—“The Stranger” —a picturization of “The First and the Last” by John Gaisworthy. AMERIGA PHOTOPLAY 1S STIRRING ANIMAL FILMA “The King of Wild Horses,” being shown at the America for the last times ay, is-a picture that stirs the ons to the very depths— tha is the heart to the core— that scars the brain with a memory Its central Agure is a wild stallion that is the most magnificent crea- ture that ever enacted a drama of love and hate—of loyalty and deyo- tion, “The King of Wild Horses” has a plot that commands and holds the interest, a love story that delights and charms, and it contains feats of skill and daring that thrill and startle. A wild stallion, monarch of the plains and leader of a band of mares, is pursued by man, whom he hates. It is a wild, thrilling, en- thralling chase—horse cunning vs. man’s skill! Then a forest fire traps the horse and his greater fear of the fire enables the cowboy to capture the beautiful creature—or rather to save him from destruction. At last the man-hating, man-killing beast learns of the kindness of man. To the man he owes devotion and loyalty, and gives it with all the passion of his wild nature. Leon Bary, as the cowboy who captures the wild horse, has », strenuous role and one that cals for the performance of daring rd- ing and stunts, as well as acting, and on the latter score Bary aco,uits himself as any leading man of Bernhardt’s should. Edna Murphy is charming as the heroine end the remainder of the cast acts in char- acter, “Plastigrams” is also being shown at each performance.
