In one scene of this production, which was directed by Van Dyke Brooks of the Vitagraph company, the players of the film are seen on the edge of the Brooklyn shore. Before them lays the river with its usual traffic of merchant vessels, ferry boats and smaller crafts. Further in

the distance, nevertheless, in plain view are the well known skyscrapers of the metropolis. The famous Singer building is easily recognized as are many other monsters of construction, which have been talked of throughout the world. Shown at the Crystal theater tonight.
