AT THE

"JusTINIAN AND THEoDoRA."

The patrons of the Royal Theatre,
Calumet, will be given an opportunity
to see a grand production of "Justinian

ICES "Selig" productions, emulating in
pictures the memorable success attain
ed i'm this historical romance by Sarah
Bernhard and Fanny Davenport.
The wel-informed reader Will recall
that the classic drama of that title was
written by Ebert and Alice Hubbard,
and that ii is due To their happy efforts
that THE one CLEAN of light during
the dark ages" has been made to glad
den our eyes and stir our hearts i'm
these modern days, when SO much of
Justice and orderly government that
we enjoy can be traced directly across
the wide gap of years, to the great
Justnian.
But 1t must be remembered that the
reduction of a drama to the scenario

ton, necessitates considerable change
i'm the incidents of the story and the
introduction of various scenes that are
left to the imagination in the dramatic
production. That Mr.. Hubbard has
succeeded so admirably in arranging
and writing this stately, picturesque
historical romance for picture use be-
speaks his possession of an art that
is i'm worthy keeping with the other
splendid gifts with which Nature has
endowed him.
To make the presentation of this
great film still more delightful to pic
ture lovers, Mr.. Selig has been success
full in gaining the consent of Mr.. Hub
bard to appear before the camera In
characteristic poses, for few seconds
so that the first 20 or 30 feet of the
film will show the famous Fra himself
