When you see the maddened natives sweep in hordes up the hill to attack Capt Jarvis stronghold-

When you see the tongues of fame lick up the entire village of Hang Chow-- When you see Repin and Jarvis in a duel to the death--

When you see the cavalry come, gallop- log furiously to the aid of the trapped lovers, cutting, battling, fighting through the mad men of the hills- Then you will realize the tremendous climax la stors for you in this greatest melodramatic thriller of the year!
