Two of tho costliest anil most aensn-
tlonnl reels of film ever mado were ahowir
at a private exhibition at tho I.ubln
studio In Philadelphia this week. The
reels consisted entirely of spectacular big
punches Hint have been used In I.ubln
productions during the last few years, and
arc the first two or n series that are to
be made, not for release, but ns n sort
of catalog of spectacular climaxes which
nre to be kept on record at the I.ubln
laboratories at Petzwood, Pa
A lover of spectacular effcctB gels tho
thrill of a lifetime watching these two
reels on Iho screen, for sensation follows
sensation. There Is no sentience lo any
of the events: they coino crashing and
smashing, one after tho other, villi
stnrtllrig rnpldlty, nnd leave one quite
breathless at the end. I.ubln hnn spent
a fortune securing climaxes nf this tpe
as any one who follows I.ubln produc
tions' well knows, and when onu sees 2IM
feet of cllmnx nfter climax ho realizes
the large amount of money nnd time that
must hnve been expended lo secure them
Perhnps the biggest punch of the
punches In the two reels Is the wrecking
of two trnlns which I.ubln cspeclntlv
staged for one of his dininns. One sern
the two trains smash together bend on,
but there Is no opportunity 'for inent.tl
recovery, for right after It n hlg bridge
Is dviinmlted In a thousand dlffetclit
directions; then, nn nutomobllo plunges
Into n river from n high cliff, followed
by tho burning of a stenm yacht and Its
disappearance under the surface. In
rnpld order the thrills follow. Boats,
trnlns, automobiles, buildings of all sorts
arid descriptions ore burned, dynamited
nnd wrecked. There nrn daring rescues,
wild mob scenes, spectacular fights nn.l
daring sturilH by I.ubln players on tho
earth, In the nlr and on tho sea, mid
when one hastily asks oneself whnt elao
could possibly be done for sensation, a
mountain Is blown up nnd a mining town
In wiped out of existence.

Now Mr. Jefferson knows a little Just n
little about wlieless tclegiaphy, but
thero Is n lot ho could loam. When the
script called for a wireless, however, ho
spoke to Phil Cilelclunan and a wireless
outfit was ordered. This outfit was set
up In the lot In buck of the studio.
Knoiigh! Hill gave the signal and the
notion commenced. The operator sat nt
his key nnd begnn clicking It. Put there
wns nn spark A wireless without a spaik
would no go very well, especially In the
movies, so the director decided that ho
could fix It. He approached tho table
holding tho outfit, attached tho recelveis
to his ears and sat down.
As nfoiementloiied, ho really Isn't very
well eisod on things "wireless," and he
began nrranglng tho connections nnd
things on the oulllt with the eager hands
nf nn nmblllous man In a hurry. Xln'
At that p nt came what he calls tho Ger
