" Cabiria." Film Actor's Daring Leap. A thrilling feat of high diving is performed in " Cabiria," the big historical film play which is to be screened in the Premier Hall, Pukekohe, to-morrow evening. The hero of the play, Fulvius Axilla, is fleeing from the enraged priests of the Carthageman god Moloch. His flight leads him to some high cliffs on the seashoro. There is only one way of escape and he takes it. He leaps from the top of the cliffs into the water below, leaving on the top the priests, who are not courageous enough to follow him. The actor who played the part of Fulvius was Signor Umberto Maszato, who is an accomplished swimmer, athlete and diver. Cabiria teams with accurate pictures of extraordinary feats of this kind.
Do not miss seeing the great historical and spectacular film, which is superior to the famous Quo Vadis!
