REAL THRILLS IX REEL THRILLERS When you go to the movies and see the heroine fall off a cliff or into a lake or gasp as the hero swings to safety on a slender telegraph wire or gets mixed up in an automobile acci dent, or some of the scores of other hair-breadth escapes, don't sit back and_ say, "Oh well, It's a fake picture." You will be in the wrong if you say that to-day. It was true, for the most part, ten years ago, but not now. The movie fans —and they number millions—demand thi real thing to day. Consequently there are hundreds of well-known moving picture ac tresses and actors who, while portray ing real thrills for reel thrills, meet WEDNESDAY EVENING, with very serious accidents. A recent Keystone comedy thriller which was attended with an almost fatal mishap had as its particular and unfortunate star Miss Mabel Normand. In the course of a typical Keystone mix-up. this daredevil young lady had to hang suspended by her foot from the steering wheel of an automobile. To get her in place, the action of the picture was halted, and. while the en gine of the car was still running, she was hoisted into her unusual position. A small boy was then concealed In the body of the machine, and received instructions to put his hand on the foot brake to hold the car, which was on an incline, and to set off u smoke bomb to obtain the effect of an ex plosion. Becoming confused, he acci dentally placed the pressure on the pedal operating the low gear. Miss Xormand's foot in the steering wheel caused the spark lever to be moved and consequently speeded up the en gine. Then the small boy, thoroughly bewildered, released the pedal, thus putting on the high gear. The car darted down the hill, dragging Miss Normand with it. and leaving in its wake a crowd of horrified camera men and players who, in the brief time this took to happen, had been unable to do a thing. Finally, after gaining considerable momentum, the car left the road, dashed over the bank of a lake and sank in fifteen feet of-wa ter. Miss Normand, very badly bruised, went into the lake with the machine* Charlie Chaplin, the come dian, then a member of the Keystone Company, rushed down the "bank. HABJRISBURG TELEGRAPH made a flying dive into the lake, re leased the drowning girl's foot, and brought her to the surface more dead than alive. Yet, after a very few days of careful nursing, she was back at work on the same picture! It Is all In the day's work with these people who labor that you may laugh—The American Boy. FOOD FOR CANNON Unless you are familiar with Its ap pearance you probably would not rec ognize on sight the explosive used in modern great guns. Certainly It is not "powder" in the usual sense of the word. A single grain of the powder used in the slxteen-tr.ch rifles at Panama Is as btg around as a broom- Stick and several inches lons. The size of the grain of powder varies with the size of the gun for which it is in tended. Different nations make their big gun explosives in different shapes. The British make it in sticks the size of lead pencils and tie It in bundles that fit into the breach of the gun. The French fashion It in flat strips like chewing gum, while German ex plosives are also in strips, though smaller and longer. The large grains of powder are perforated lengthwise. This Is so that It will take fire more evenly and burn from the center out ward. The powder does not expend all its force instantly, but the size of the grain and the perforation are ar ranged so that the force Is greatest just aa the projectile leaves the mouth of the o*janon.—The American Bay. JULY 21, 1915 NEW HITOOPLAJfE WITH AERIAL PROPELLER A new hydroplane that is attracting considerable attention Is a skimmer driven by an aerial propeller and cap able of making more than 60 miles an hour. The principal feature of this craft is its hull, somewhat like that of a sea sled, with which is used an in genious means for producing an air cushion between the water and the hull, when the skimmer Is traveling at a high rate of speed. The air Is col- CA STO RIA Forlnhntsand CMrtren. Bears th« ■— lbs Kird You Have Always Bought w lected by wide funnels which face toward the bow. Connected with each funnel Is a pipe that has Its outlet un der the hull, the pipe outlets being: spaced along- the hull from bow to stern. At high speeds the atr pres sure against the funnels, aided by the suction of the water past the mouths of the tubes, causes a large volume of air to be discharged under "the hull, with the result that the hull rides on a cushion of air and mist. The Popular Mechanics Magazine contains a pic ture of this hydroplane. 3
