most of this, their first opportunity

est interpreter Of Shakespeare. brings
his massive and spectacular produc-
ton Of Julius Caesar" TO this citv this
evening. for an engagement or one
night at the Oliver theater. The

Arthur Elliot, Ernest Rowan, Thomas
Tracy and Miss Jane Wheatley.
The production is admit eddy one of
the most pretentious made of a
Shakespearian play in the last decade

after designs by the. late Alma

scene in the senate chamber which is
an exact reproduction OF Gerome's
famous painting OF the death of Gaze
