Extra Session CT Legislature.

Tie calling Of an extra session to
consider the County Unit Bill is spoken
If in Frankfort as q certainty. Mem
hers Of the Legislature in q position to
know are convinced that such will be
the course of Governor Wilson.
The action of the Senate Thursday
in 50 changing the rules as to require
a twO-third vote to suspend the rules,
and placing the calling up of bills in
the hands of the rules committee alone.
IS regarded as precluding the passage
Of the County Unit bill at this session.
Friends Of the measure believe that
at an extra session, with no other leg
isaltion to interfere, the bill would be
passed.
Governor Wilson declines to discuss
the subject OF an extra session, regard
ing it premature when the close of the
session is less than ten days away.
The fact that this legislation was
plank in the Republican platform, it
is believed that the temperance forces
will insist upon the extra session.

''Ben-Hur" to Be Staged at the
0Dera House, Lexington.

When the curtain is drawn at The
Opera House, Lexington on Thursday
evening. March 19, the most elaborate,
magnificent and historically correct pro-
ductlon will be disclosed that has ever
charmed and enthralled q theatre audi
ence, for this will be the premiere OF
the Chicago Auditorium production of
Ben Hur' in Lexington. More than
three years have elapsed since Ben
Hur' was presented II Lexington. At
that time hundreds jOurneyed from
TINS vicinity to witness it. No doubt
the same excellent patronage will
marx the forthcoming engagement.
Ben Hur, with its lustrous Star
OF Bethlehem, its camels, Arabian
steeds, Oriental trappery, and mimic
splendor OF the gorgeous East" is be-
yond dispute the most elaborate spec
tacie ever staged in the history Of the
world. Its series of II scenes present
to the eye a feast OF multifarious
beauty and varity, all set to a SYM
phonic accompaniment of graceful
music. The exciting episodes, such as
the gaIly scene with its horde Of chain
ed slaves; the sea-fght, and rescue in
mid-sea and the thrilling race with two
chariors and eight horses, combined
with the picturesque scenes illusUrat-
ing the Wise Mel in the desert, the
moonlit lake In the Orchard OF Palms
where Ben Hur and Jras enjoy seclu-
sion ana make love in Iras' barge, the
palm-waving worshippers on Nit. Oil
vet, and the Grove of Daphne with
nymphs dancing in the skins of beasts
to the music of kissing cymbals-sim-
ply captivate audiences wherever it is
enacted.
"Ben-Hur" appeals to all classes,
all ages and all denominations Of the
Christian faith, and draws to it, as to
a place Of worship hundreds of thous-
snds who seldom, if ever, set foot
within theatre. The person of the
Savior is never made to appear bodily
in the play, yet in the scene in which
the healing of the lepers in implied the
approach Of the Master is indicated by
a stream Of pure white light amazing
in its effectiveness. This scene is the
most remarkable OF the play and is
heightened in impressivcness by the
singing Of a chorus Of one hundred
voices, Joining in "Hosannas" of
praise to the Lord.
The engagement of "Ben-Hur" is
for three nights only, opening on
Thursday. March l9,with a special mat
inee performance on Saturday, March
q. Seats for the "Ben-Hur'' season
will be placed on sale Monday, March
Is. Mail orders, accompanied by re-
mittance, will be filled in order Of re-
ceipt. The scale Of prices will range
from 80 cents to $500. All communi-
cations should be addressed to MIR.

House, Lexington.
