story Of Vinicius and the deeply re-

the screen. and the picturized pro-

with the best Of film stories.
The. excesses and revels of the
degenerate Emperor Nero. for which
he Is best recalled in history, are
depicted with meticulous attention to
detail and. as in most Of the Euro
pean productions, the art of the di-
rector has been especially applied to
the ensemble features wherein the
handling of the great crowds at
tendant upon the burning of Rome
and the massacre OF the Christian
martyrs In the amphitheateS is mace
most effective.
The thrilling climax where Lygia
Is turned loose for sacrifice on the
back Of a maddened bull. only to
be saved by the superhuman strength
OF the faithful slave. Ursus, is pre-
sented with sufficient fidelity tc
make 1t the high point OF the pic

CATS ARE STARTERS OF FIRES.
Trainef for Crooked Merchants, Who
Defraud Insurance Companies.

A dispatch from New4 York says:
Stories Of how cats are taught to
upset lamps, thus setting fire to
buildings, were related here recently
by c. c. West, manager Of the inves-
tigation and prosecution department
of the National Association Of Credit
Men, in detailing exposures of the
schemes used by storekeepers to get
insurance.
While investigating in Paterson,
\. j., recently, Mr.. West said he be-
came inter ested in the disappearance
of several satclIels used for trans
porting animals. He traced the cases
to Chester, Pa, and the trail led him
to man whom he found to be ap-
parently fond Of cats.
81 soon found out the reason" he
added. "The cats were being trained
to fight lamps, and when their train
ing was completed they were sold
for $3.50 each. SO when a man want
ed fire III his store all that was
necessary was to purchase trained
cat and leave it in his store with 4
lighted lamp. The owner could go
home and sleep soundly--assured
knock over the lamp and his store
would be destroyed"
