On the Verge of War (Bison), June 6. — This three-reel number was written by James Dayton and produced by Otis Turner. Anna Little and Herbert Rawlinson play the leading roles. The story is one of international intrigue between agents of this country and Mexico. The girl is the supposed daughter of a hypnotist acting as a Mexican spy, but later it is learned he was not her father. Many of the situations are very intense and considerable ingenuity is employed in developing the plot. This holds the interest nicely and makes a good release.
