 "The Daughter of the Gods defies the most seductive descriptive powers, and
 what it is, for it is little bit of every thing; the orient and the occident, an- cient days and the present days; politics, religion, war, fairyland, reality. dreams, love, hate good and evil all mingled to- gether and yet coherent, the whole mighty spectacle pointing toward and finding it's completion in the great truth laid down In the thirteenth chapter of First Corinthians, which contains the sentiment:
 And now abideth faith hope and love, but the greatest of these is love- The most radiant imagination cannot picture the splendid, the beauty, and the gorg eousness of the picture; the con-

 While superbness and colossal scenic effects are dominant, at the same time the great deep sindertone of the story the power and beauty and deathiessness of lover-is what commands the rapt at tention of the spectator and sends one away at the end inspired with new sense of the sacredness of pure and de- voted affection.
 Of the thousands of people taking part in "A Daughter of the Gods" four per- sonages form the central group about which all the play is woven; Anita, the Dream Maiden" Prince Omar, the Witch of Badness and the Fairy of Good ness.
 The story has to do with Prince Omar, one of the noblest of Gods creations, brave as lion, yet withal, tender and true; he loves Anita with all his heart and she "A Daughter of the Gods,'' re- turns 1t in full measure.
 Whenever anything good and beautiful appears in the world, 1t seems to be de- creed that something ugly and bad shall put in it's appearance and try to destroy

 A terrible picture is drawn of "The Witch of Badness the very incarnation she is of evil, and she lives for but one thing, and that is to wither and blast whatever is pure and clean and beautiful; her laughter Is like that of Satan, when he looked back upon the devastation he had wrought in Gods Paradise; but for tunately while the wretched old Witch of Badness was working to spoil the love of Prince Omar and Anita.

CAPTURE BY BRITISH MARKS END

NEWS GIVEN OUT BY Law
FALL OF HOLY CITY MARKS COL
LAPSE OF TURK EFFORT ON
THE sUEz CANAL.

London, Dec. 11.-Andrew Bonar
Law, chancellor OF the exchequer, an
nounced in the House of Commons to-
day that Jerusalem, after being sur
rounded by British troops, had surren-
dered.
The capture of Jerusalem by the
British forces marks the end, with
two brief interludes, of more than L.
200 years possession of the seat of
Christian religion by the Mohamme-
dams. For 673 years the holy city has
been in undisputed ownership OF the
Turks. the last Christian ruler of Je-
rusalem being the German Emperor.
Frederick H., whose short-lived domi-
nation lasted from 1929 to 1244.
Apart from its connection with the
campaign being waged against Turkey
by the British in Mesopotamia, the
fall of Jerusalem was the definite col
lapse of the long-protracted efforts of
the Turks to capture the Suez canal
and invade Egypt. Almost the first
move made by Turkey after her en-
trance into the war was a campaign
against Egypt across the great desert
of the Sinai peninsula.
In December, 1915, definite informa-
tion showed that the Turks had been
driven back as far as Eel Arish, about
eighty-five miles east of the canal In
December, 1916. the British stormed
Ell Arish and a few days later severely
defeated the Turks at Maghdabah.
Two weeks later the invaders had
been driven out of Egypt and the
British forces crossed the border into
Palestine.
On March 7th last, the British cap
tured FL Khulil, fifteen miles south of
Jerusalem. Ell Khulil is the modern
name of ancient Hebron.
Early in November they took Beer
sheba, forty miles south of Jerusalem.
By Nov. the city OF GAIA was in
their hands and the British were pur-
suing the Turks northward after hav-
ing inflicted casualties estimated as
in excess of 10000.
Gen Allenby, the British command
er, meanwhile kept his forces near the
coast in rapid motion and pushed on
to Jaffa, the port of Jerusalem, in mid
November.
By Nov % the British had pushed
within five miles of Jerusalem on the
northwest, and on Dec. Gen. Allenby
announced that he had definite pos
session of Hebron Jerusalem was
virtually cut off on all sides but the
east
In sentimental and romantic aspect
the capture of Jerusalem far exceeds
even the fall of fable-crowned Bagdad.
The modern city of Jerusalem con-
tains about 10000 inhabitants. and is
the home of pestilence, filth and fe-
vers, but in historic interest it natu-
rally surpasses, to the Christian
world, all other places in the world.
Since the days when Joshua wrested
it from the hands of the Jebusites to
make 1t the capital of the Jewish race.
Jerusalem has been the priced prey OF
half the races of the world. 1t has
passed successfully into the hands of
the Assyrians, Babylonians, Greeks,
Romans, Persians, Arabs, Turks, the
motley crowds Of the Crusaders, fin
ally to fall before the descendants of
that Richard the Lion-Hearted who
strove in vain for its possession more
than 700 years ago.
