Dorothy Dalton
Real Shooter in
Thrilling Movie

That Dorothy Dalton is a crack
shot with the revolver is something
few Of her associates in the motion
picture field knew until she was
acting in THE Flame of the Yu-
kon," a Triangle play by Monte NJ.
Kattefjohn, directed by Charles
Miller. supervised by Thomas H.
Ince, which will be shown at the
Colonial theatre next Friday and
Saturday.
1t was during the scene in the
gambling hall when after one Of
the attendants had removed the re-
volver from the pocket Of Kenneth
Harlan, who takes the part of Dor
othy's sweetheart, the dealer chal-
lenges him to . duel and shoots
him before he knows his gun had
been stolen. Dorothy Dalton's
part calls for some quick, straight
shooting and there was q question
between Director Charles Miller
and the star on the proper way OF
handling the revolver. The direc-
| tor insisted its being held In GER
tain fashion while the star was

equally positive that her way was
the proper one. In desperation
Mr.. Miller asked, What do you
know about revolvers anyway?
You're only a woman and probably
never. had gun in your hands be-
fore"
rs that So" was Miss Dalton's
prompt response. "I'll bet I'm a
better shot than you are"
Done. and We'll shoot it OF aft
er we get through here"
Miss Dalton whispered a few
words to her maid and the latter
hurried away to the stars home to
return some time later with rath-
er heavy package, which she han
died in gingerly fashion.
When the work of the day was
finished MIR. Miller reminded Miss
Dalton of the trial Of skill and
started to send his assistant for
some revolvers. He was surprised
when Miss Dalton called on her
maid for-the package, and unwrap-
ping it showed two army revolvers,
which she stated were her own.
Realizing that he had to do with
an experienced revolver shot in
stead OF an inexperienced tyro Mr..
Miller shot his best in the match
but was greatly outclassed by Miss
Dalton. After he admitted himself
beaten, the star then gave an exhi-
bition of trick shooting for the edi-
flcation Of the members of the COM
pany.
The next day when the company
appeared Mr.. Miller gave instruc-
tions to have the shooting scene Of
the play done over again. Miss
Dalton objected. as this scene calls
for intense emotional acting on her
part Mr.. Miller explained that he
wanted the star to use her own
judgment on the way the gun
should be held, as he admitted she
knew more about it than he did.
