Historic Rush of '76 Reproduced
In New Film.
Two great “rushes” across the con
tinent mark the history of the West’s
development. The first was the rush
of the forty-niners from the East to
the gold-fields of California and the
free lands of Oregon. The second
was the rush of ’76 by the farmers
of the Mississippi valley to the Buf
falo fields of Montana and Wyoming.
It is this latter rush that forms the
theme of Zane Grey’s “The Thunder
ing Herd,” which William K. Howard
directed for Paramount, showing at
the Liberty Theater tonight and to
morrow.
The picture vividly recreates the
old west of fifty years ago. Thru
out the plains of the mid-west, huge
herds of buffalo roamed at will. Then,
in the spring of 1876, news spread
that the hides were bringing as much
as three dollars each in the east.
Immediately there was a rush. Per
sons from all over the country and
from all walks of life started for the
buffalo fields. Perhaps the greatest
influx was from Illinois, Indjana and
Ohio.
The story of “The Thundering
Herd” tells of the journey of a group
of hardy men and women from their
farms in the east to the vast unciv
ilized territory of the far west—of
the hardships thqy suffered, oif the
dangers they encountered, the obsta
cles they overcame and of their ul
timate success when they arrived at
their destination.
The picture is packed from start
to finish with thrilling incidents and
dynamic action. Two of the mighty
scenes in the production show a ter
rific battle between five hundred In
dians and a handful of white men,
and a mad stampede of two thousand
fear-crazed buffalo.
A talented cast has been assembled
which is headed by four featured
players—Jack Holt, Lois Wilson,
Noah Beery and Raymond Hatton.
F. A. Cornell, treasurer of the Kat
mai Gold Mine Company at Uyak, who
arrived in Seward last week from the
Westward, left Saturday on the S.S.
Alaska for Seattle. Mr. Cornell re
turns early in the spring.
