Lew Wallace’s famous novel, “Ben-Hut," is the visible re- sult of a chance meeting on a rail- road train and a subsequent discus- sion; upon the truthfulness and merit of Christianity between the author and the late Col Robert Inger- soll. General Wallace ha alwayl’ been a man of‘strong religious incli- nations ~indeed, the splendid dex seription of the, Wise Men in the1 Desert had-been written long before} this meeting with Ingersoll, but the claims shd arguments of the greatest agnostic of modern times were put with such picturesque directness that the author felt he was unable to combat them. His senses were charmed with the eloquent and poet- ical presentation of the cause of ag- nostieism, but he was by no means convinced of its truth. But this dis- cussion'sank deep into his mind and it led him to- make a" careful and exhaustive study of the life of the Nazarene. The, result of this re- search, and Gen.. Lew Wallace’ 3 answer to Ingersoll was“Ben- Her,” 1 work which has been more widely read than any printed volume, save mly the. sacred Scriptures. In :housands of " homes “Ben-Hut" stands on the bookshelves side by side with the Bible. Gen. Wallace gives us a clear, sharply defined and nest vivid view of Him “who snake is never man spake inform” he has surrounded Him with living charac- ers, and he has depicted the scenes Ind times of the most interesting )eriod of the world’ s history with ‘ rsurpessing beauty. _It was inevitable ‘ “A great divine once said: 001.

The great play will remain at the mm»! for a limited period. so much intertet has been centered in this engagement, and on many in- quiries have been made by mail and telegraph. that Klaw end Erlnnger have decided to accept orders {or sects for pay of the performance: of the first weeks, with the exception of , the initial representation. These; will be filled in the order of their receipt, if accompanied by check or money order. The advance eale will open at the Illinois Theatre, Chi- cago, on Thursday, August 8th. Seats for the first performance of "Ben-Hut" will have to be procured at the pox 0508 of the theatre, ’ have attracted the instant attention .of dramatists, and strong overtures were made from time time by some of the foremost managers. looking to its presentation on the stage. To all " these General Wallace was as ads- mant. He replied to all that he could notseehow the scene oi the Star of Bethlehem. the sinking Roman galley, the great chariot race or the representation of the miracle on Mount Olivet could be presented. To his mind there were insurmount- able mechanical dificulties in the way of the first three, and as (or the last, his fixed and immovable decis- ion was to allow no representation ‘ of the personality of the Nazarene to be seen in a dramatic spectacle. For years these objections stood .as an insurmountable barrier and it was not until Klaw Erlanger approach- ed Gen. Wallace am he consented} to go over the matter. After many‘ conferences, extending over months, Klaw a Erlanger finally submitted the outline of a drama which over-V came his every objection. 'B the kl ol'the most lingual devices. made possible only remarkable advance in electri l art. they set before Gen. Wallace odels which convinced him that the sentation of the Star of Bethlehem, the galley scene and the chariot race could be put on the stage with the most‘perlect aud startling realism that had ever been witnessed in a“ dramatic spectacle. Klaw Erlan ger, at the same time, submitted a plan for the miracle scene, in which the Saviour was not seen. but his presence and influence suggested by a shaft of white light of the most wondrous brillance. Any presenta- tion of the personality of the Naza- rene would {all and fail, but this supernatural light. resting on the faces of the multitude on the moun- tain side, would indicate the near- neas of His presence with more in- ,tensity than has ever been witnessed Sin a theatre. Gen. Wallace then gave his consent and the book was dramatized by William Young, Eeq., one of the most noted and competent playwrights ol the day. Such is the story of the placing of “Ben-Hut”. { on the stage. “Ben-Bur" hse here- , tpiore been seen exclusively in the cities of the cast, its engagements 1 being limited to New York, where it 1 played ever a year. to Philadelphia, I BOswn and Brooklyn.
