There are some astounding feats
by deickemeyer2019-03-10

"A special two part picture play. There are some astounding feats, performed by Tom Mix, shown in this offering. Luke Barnes obtains employment with a moving picture concern, as a cowboy, and declares he can do the feats that cowboys are supposed to do. He goes to an uncle's ranch, and proceeds to entertain the cowboys with the stories of his "stunts." He even shows a medal, which he states was given to him by his admiring co-workers. What happens to Luke when the cowboys find him out is demonstrated in the picture. A laughable offering. - The Moving Picture World, October 17, 19..."
