The Minneapolis, Minn 6-42 | structure was erected at great’'ex- pense, two weeks being required for its completion, and it was torn down after having been in actual use less than half a day. Elephants, donkeys, camels and goats were used 'in these scenes, not to mention a thousand players dress- ed in the costumes of ancient Ba- bylonians, Assyrians, Jews and Ro- mans. Every phase of the vari-col- ored life ®f Asia Minor in the days of 2227 B. C. is pictured. Many na- tives of the old world were secured for these large scenes, and when the time came for the showing of the “confounding of tongues,” where all|. were supposed to speak different lan- guages, many of the plays unecon- sciously began to speak their native tongue, adding to the realism of the spectacular scenes. ‘‘Draft 258" is one of the most ambitious photo- dramas ever offered to the American public, and is the logical successor to Metro’s other great patriotic pho- todrama, “The Slacker.” Both pro- ductions were. directed by William Christy Cabanne.
