 But there are many other scenes which l appeal to the eye and the senses by rare pictorial beauty, and serve as ht- ting background for the portrayal ol Gen. Lew Waliace's masterpiece in it's dramatized form. The arrogance and bower of the Roman conquerors are pitted
 against the invincible spirit of the Jew and there is running through the drama the benign influence of Christ.
 Robert w. Frazer is an admirable Ben
