Too Near the Edge, Snus Robert MKinl.

Fighting for his life on rocky ledge that hung out over chasm, with sheer drop of thousand feet staring him in the face. was the new and thrilling experience under gone by Robert McKim recently dur ing the filming of "The Iced Bull let," the Triangle-Kay Bee play, by c. Gardner Sullivan, in which Thomas H. Ince presents William Desmond as star at the Coliseum to- night. There is also a good Max Sennett comedy.
 McKim figured in this sensational encounter on one of the summits near Pinecrest, in the San Bernar- dino range, where he went with Director Reginald Barker and a company of players to obtain some scenes for this new serio-comic de- tective story. His role-that of a derangcd youth-called upon him to escape from his guards while in an automobile en route to a sanitarium and flee to the towering rock.
 In enacting the scene the combat antss clinched and fell, then rolled dangerously near the edge. The fight is said to be more thrilling in it's realism than anything or like nature ever before attempted foi the screen. But, as McKim remark ed afterward, 'it will be a lone time and take a lot of persuasion before I do 1t again. I shall never forget the sensations I experienced on that rock. It seemed as if breath of wind could have biowr me into space"
