Edith Johnson has the leading role. After an absence from screen work of several months Fritzi Brunette is soon to be seen in the leading role of an eight-reel feature bearing the in teresting title, "Beware of Stran gers." It is said that the new piece will afford Miss Brunette even great er" opportunities than "Unto Those Who Sin,' 'the feature in which she first joined ( the ranks of beautiful vampires. Wilfred Incas is to make his next appearance in a picture version of "Jim Bludso," one of the most fa mous of the Pike County ballads. It was this picturesque poem that first attracted widespread attention to 'the literary talents of the late John Hay, he eminent diplomat and statesman. As all readers of the John Hay clas sic will recall, the climax of the poem tells of the burning of the big Missis sippi river steamboat, "Prairie Belle." In order to secure the essential real ism for this effect, the producers of the screen version purchased the1 largest sidewheel river steamer ob tainable and burned it to the water's edge.
