The en- audience is the most fIattering en- dorsement this really great production can receive. %
 The dramatic incident of twenty mounted Indians riding along a ledge on a cliff in the third act and the marvellously realistic battle scene add an element of realism to the play which has rarely been equa11ed in the history of the American stage.
