      The climax brings a feeling of disappointment

      The Boxer rebellion, a lovely American girl, a Chinese prince, a daring attempt at abduction, and a magnificent yacht flying the Imperial Dragon, should, it would seem, offer a firm foundation for a moving tale by land and sea. The climax brings a feeling of disappointment, however. Matters are made too easy for the hero, and the action lacks that inevitability which is the life and soul of a drama. L.C. Shumway, Marvin Mayo and Velma Whitman, have the leading roles. - The Moving Picture World, March 27, 1915
