According to the Apocryphal story,
the children of Israel had firtified the
hill passages by which an invading
army from Assyria would be obliged
to enter into Judea- The principal of
these fortified places was Bethulia.
It is related that Nebuchodonosor
sent Holofernes, chief captain of his
army with 10000 men to visit vene-
geance on all the earth. When he
came to Judea he met an unex-
lpected defense by the Jews OF
Bethulia. He stormed the walls, but
was unable to capture the city. He
then sat down to starve 1t into sub
mission, having taken possession Of all
the springs and wells from which the
city had its supply of water. The re-
suit was that the inhabitants began

the elders to surrender to the enemy

Judith OF BETHULIA,"
GENERAL FILM COMPANY
MASTERPIECE, AT NEW BOZ

Another Of the famous photoplay
masterpieces controlled by the special
feature department Of the General Film
company and which are being shown
exclusively in the New Boz, will be the
big attraction at that theater the first
two days OF the week. 1t is called
judith of Bethulia," and critics the
world over have sung its praises as be-
ing truly masterpiece of the moving
picture art.
This four motion picture produc-
ton. telling the tragic story of Judith
and Holofernes, is based on the book Of
Judith in the Apocrypha, and on the
poem and tragedy from the same
source, by Thomas Bailey Aldrich 1t
is a free rendition, in which the siege
of Bethulia by Holofernes and the
storming of the walls, are given spec

A fascinating work of high artistry,
Judith of Bethulia," not only ranks as
an achievement in this country but in
foreign countries as well. 1t has a
signal and imperative message. and the
technique displayed throughout an in
finity of detail, embracing even the del
icate film tinting and toning marks an
encouraging step in the development of
the new art. Ancient in story and set
tings, it is modern in penetrative in
terpretation-it is a vivid history of one
phase Of the time it concerns. and is
redemptive as well as revelative, a les
son from one Of those vital struggles
that made and unmade nations as well
as individuals, yet it is not without that

would deliver all Judea into his hands
He gave her tent and many attend
ants and strove by his attention to gain
her personal favor, with artful cum
ming, she played on his weakness until
he invited her to an elaborate enter
tainment in his quarters. Here she
succeeded in inducing him to dismiss
all his servants. and when he was over
come with wine, she took his sword
and cut off his head. She escaped back
to Bethulia with her maid and the head
Of the dead general, arriving inside the
walls just as the Inhabitants were Civ
ing UP all hope and were crying aloud
for the city to be surrendered.
The men OF Bethulia were inspired by
her seeming miraculous act to great
enthusiasm and courage and they fell
upon the Assyrlans, who were in a
panic from the loss of their leader. The
result was a complete defeat for the
invading army. Great rejoicing fol-
lowed in Bethulia, and Judith was rails
ed to the highest esteem of the people.
Among the striking scenes in this re-
markable picture are those showing the
battle outside the city, the assaults or
the massive walls, the scenes of fam
inc within, the unsuccessful attempt OF
the Jews to regain the walls, the tragic
death Of Holofernes at the hands OF
Judith, and the final destruction Of the
Assyrian camp.
Strictest attention in detail in cos
tune weapons and instruments of war
customs of the people and correct
scenic backgrounds are manifest
throughout.

How One Negro Was Beaten.
one of the most brutal punish
ments inflicted by Boss Tyree, ac-
cording TO Convict Green's story to
the Grand Jury. was that upon ne
gro by the name of Robert Coleman.
"Tyree made Coleman strip naked"
said Green. Then he handcuffsd his
hands behind him, Bent him almost
double and trussed him in Aat I'M
comfortable position by means of
pickax handle
Then he took his lash and beat
Coleman numerically while Coleman
shrleked and writhed on the ground.
He must have given him at least 100
lashes."
While the members of the State
Prison Commission were before the
Grand Jury they were questioned
closely, as were the members of the
County Commission. i'm an effort to
determine where the responsibility
lies for the conduct of the convict
camp bosses.
Commissions Shift Blame.
The situation appears somewhat to
have grown out of a conflict of au-
thority on one hand and tendency,
on the other, for each of the com
missions TO pass up to the other the
responsibility for certain phases of
the administration.
The jurors interrogated every
member of each commission in order
to learn the exact truth. Recon-
mendations are expected as a result
OF their questioning.

Georgia Prison Commission. was in
conference with the jurors much of
the day. aiding them in their investi-

valuable witnesses who might be

their hands were covered with sores

That Tyree held the convicts in NOR

of the lash and his abuse of the 81 *
prisoners was Spradiing's declara-
ton.
Spradilnig said that he number OF
times had incurred Tyree's displeas-
ure and that ale even now was only
recovering from the last terrible
beating that he had received. He
displayed great welts on his body to
bear witness TO his story.

He'd rather beat his men up than do
anything else in the world
VIII Bridwell is a negro who does
not go out on the road, but works
around the camp. He said that he
had witnessed Tyree whip the pris-
oners until the blood ran down their
bodies
Il saw him whip four fellows be-
cause they were sick and couldn't
work, he said "A good many times
we didn't get enough to eat but we
were afraid to ask for anything more
