Presented under the auspices of the Decatur Latin Club, at the Cort Thea•4r, Monday night, January 22. Admission 25 cents. More than 20,000 persons appear in some of the big scenes. Julius Caesar is portrayed by Anthony Novell!, who bears a striking resemblance to Caesar. 1 The customs, dress, art and military science of the times are correct • to the smallest detail. The film opens with Caius Julius Caesar at his twentieth birthday, then ; follows his marriage to Cornelia, the annulment, his exile. Twenty years later his marriage to Calpurnia and election to the consulship. 1 Then follows his political allaince with Pompey and the. marriage of his daughter Julia to Pompey to further cement the alliance. Here we have glimpses into the intimate social and political lite of the day. The great military triumphs of Caesar follow. The gathering of the Cauls to resist him, their weird religious ceremonies and their peculiar habits of life, are as faithfully pictured as the scant records of this almost unknown race permits. Pompey stirs up the senate against | Caesar. Caesar’s return to Rome. ■ Great civil war in which Pompey is defeated. In 44 B. C. Caesar, settles down to the administration of of justice with temperance and wisdom mellowed by ago and experience, but his arch enemy Cato forms a conspiracy with Brutus as the ringleader. On March 15, at a meeting of the senate, Caesar is attacked, Caesar reels the target of a dozen blows. “And then, too, Brutas? Then fall, Caesar!” Pandemonium reigns! The city is aflame with riot and murder. Mark Antony, concluding his oration in the market-place, smiles. "Mischief, thou art afoot, take thou what course thou wilt!" Throughout the realm ot lilmdom. no Scene equate this in magnilicauce, the .spectacular massing ot 20,000 Romans in the market-place, swaying with excitement, sweeping onward under the stress of a great emotion, form a fitting set ting tor the end of tile greatest figure hi all history.

IB.—Carrying amendments which its friends fear will mean eventual defeat, the soldier bonus bill was ready for second reading in the state house of representatives today. Th e blll provides for the payment ot $lO for each month i n the service to ex-soldiers and nurses. Unexpected opposition to the measure developed in the house to such an extent that friends of the bill de elded to go slowly in pushing its passage. Ihe most damaging amendment, from the viewpoint of these behind the measure, was one which provided that when the measure goes to a referendum in 1921 it must receive a majority of all the votes cast in the general election which will be held at the same time. ,
