27 min. Langdon McCormick’s spectacular playlet which has just come to America after a three years’ run in London. A typical melodrama with a thrilling story and a wonderful climax in which a forest fire is shown with a locomotive plunging through the blaze. For the lovers of this sort of melodrama, “The Forest Fire” fills overly requirement and it held the audience seated right up to the finish after a long show. The act took several curtain calls.
