CHARLEY RAYS PLUNGE
OVER A 70-FOOT

A steep cliffside of rock and sandy
EARTH 10 feet high; two men on a
horse, plunging over its bring, and
rolling helterskelter to the bottom
that's the big thriller in "The De-
serter," Triangle's new Charley Ray
feature, and it's said to be the most
daring piece of pure neck-risking to-
merity ever seen.
The feat has neither dummies nor
camera tricks, it is announced. The
spectator sees Ray riding for life
ahead of. an Indian in hot pursuit, in
mountainous region, supposed to be
near western army post, where the
scenes of the play are laid. Both
pursuer and ppursued exhaust their
ammunition. The Indian rides along"
side Ray, and makes a flying leap
from his horse to that ridden by the
young Triangle stal. They fight in
the saddle, and the horse, frightened,
makes a misstep and goes over the
cliff
The horse travels on his back most
of the way, with his legs waving Wild
ly in the air. The men turn somer.
saults, slide, roll and tumble, till they
hit level ground at the bottom. The
Indian is supposed, in the picture, to
have been killed by his wounds and
the plunge down the precipice. Lat
err in the story, Ray dies.
"No wonder" said an outsider, who
saw an early showing of the film.
"That fall was enough to kill even a
moving picture actor"

weather permitting, the merry Minis
trel men will blossom out in all their
glory.
One of the songs that made a big
hit at the rehearsal last night was the
pretty telephone duet sung by Miss
Bessie Homan and Earl Tostevan of
Mandan; some pretty electrical eff
fects will be used in this number. Mr.
Tostevan is almost as we'll known in
Bismarck as in Mandan and the Elks
consider themselves lucky to secure
his services in the big show.
While the seat sale has been re-
markable a number of choice seats
can still be obtained for either per
