Ben-Hur To-Night

Those who fail to attend the Ben-Hur entertainment at the Opera House will miss an occasion for delight, wonderment and genuine enjoyment they may never again enjoy. Those who braved the storm of Wednesday night to witness this gorgeous scenic exhibition and the delightful tableaux, dancing Priestesses, tambourine girls, castinet accompaniments to the most graceful movements of beautiful girls were amply repaid by the exquisiteness and pleasure of the performance.. The scenery and incidents are divided into three parts, and the scenes run from five to nine in each part. These scenes represent the great work of Gen. Lew Wallace in illustrations that all will readily recognize who have read Ben Hur. The whole is equal to the rarest fairy scene the human mind is capable of picturing.. Go to the Opera House to-night and witness this magnificent entertainment. Then go again Friday night and Saturday night and Saturday afternoon. Indeed, you are certain to do so.
