NOW SHOWING AT SPICKETT’S PALACE--2 ti Special musie score by six-piece orchestra. 1 in a Juneau theatre in y (W Autractions | | i i . At Theatres TWBEN-HUR” 1S Now t I SHOWING AT PALACE ke Three large audiences “Ben-Hur” at the Palace - didy at the premiere showing in Alaska. The audiences agreed| that it is a classic and that Ra mon Novarro in the title part i the finest of all the Ben-Hurs, and | Francis X. Bushman a most hand.| some and baleful Messala. | Much favorable comment was | made on the special orchestra! Manager Spickett has for this pro- duction, six pieces and the regular | “Ben-Hur” scgre was played from | beginning to end. This big pro-| duction is on for three more| nights, tonight, Tuesday and Wed-| nesday, two complete showings| each night. { With Novarro and Bushman, May McAvoy and Carmel Myers| shared the honors of the love story, while Claire McDowellj sounded depths of tenderness as the -widowed Princess of Hur. Others who specially distinguish- ed themselves were Mitchell Le as a fine Sheik Ilderim, F Currier as a commanding Ar Nigel de Brulier as a splendid Simonides, and Kathleen Key as a most winsome Tirzah. The open- ing picturer of the Nativity elicit- ed gasps of awe and admiration, yet in such lovely scenes did the Star of Bethlehem, the visit of the Wise Men, and the adoration | of the Shepherds, come upon the| spectator. Here Betty Bronson| revealed herself as a Madonna ri-| valing a masterpiece of Raphael or Rubens, i The chariot race stirred wild ¢ applause and vocal bravos, yet the . .grand sea fight earlier in the story was little inferior in its dramatic power and ability to thrill. The final scene of the healing of the ank | g mother and sister of Hur by the|, passing Saviour was as reverently and beautifully handled as in the stage play. The . great picture took three years work in Italy and California| at an expense estimated at $4,) ' 090,000, and certainly reflects | glory on the wonderfully skilled Fred Niblo who directed it. A delightful feature is the use of colors in the pictures. The feature starts promptly at! 7:10 o'clock each night for thel first showing. | fl"wmnen: " 1S AT COLISEUM TONIGHT || n | | 3 “The Wanderer” is showing at| the Coliseum for \the last times| tonight, directed by Raoul Walsh| for Paramount. | Mr. Walsh, already famous for; his direction of “The Thief of| Bagdad,” and Paramount, from| which company. have come such/ productions as “Peter Pan,” “The!
