There is a dynamite blast in this picture
by deickemeyer2017-08-27

"There is a dynamite blast in this picture which is intended to create suspense; it succeeds fairly well. The drama is of a drinking father of a young man in love with his employer's daughter. The quarry boss, seeing the father drunk, declines to accept the son as a suitor for his daughter. Later the old man reforms; in a blast he saves the little child of the boss, who has wandered into the danger zone. - The Moving Picture World, April 19, 1913..."
