"QuO Nadis" at the Empire.
The eight-reel motion-pictr-r pro-
duction of Quo Nadis," which had n
successful run last summer at the
Rijou, returned to Richmond last night
at the Empire Theatre.
SienkiewicZs famous story OF the
early Christian martyrs, realistically
enacted before the camera, possesses Il
genuine merit and offers many thrills.
The celebrated scene in which Chris
tians are fed to real lions in the Coli
scum marks very high point IN
motion picture realism. The sight of
the giant Ursus downing mad bull
with his bare hands and rescuing the
beautiful Lygia from the animals back,
is another Incident that makes the au-
dience Jingle.
Five performances of the photo play
Will be given daily during the week,

was made and they were carried across
the bridge. The conductor asked for a
return fare. they say. but they refused
To pay II. and then the car was side
tracked and allowed to stand for two
hours before a special crew was placed
in charge to convey the persevering
