EVERYBODY'S THEATRE.
"Judith of Bethnlia," with a cast com. prising Henry B. Walthall, Constance Xalma.dge, Mac Marsh, Lillian Gish, and Kate Bruce, will be the D. W. Griffith special offering at Everybody's Theatre to-day. Excelling in those productions where lavish themes and settings are" required, the master producer has created here another story that is reminiscent of "Orphans of the Storm" and "Intolerance." The story is adapted from the Apocrapha, and is one of the most famous romances of the Bible. Mac Marsh plays the role of Judith) the woman of Judea, who braved the dangers of the Camp of Holofernes to save her city from being wiped out by the marauding oppressor. It is a story of a woman's sacrifice in time of war—the story of a woman who risked her honour for her country. The supporting programme includes' Charlie Chaplin in one of his^ latest masterpieces, "The Idle Class," in addition to- which there is a very fine selection of accompanying films, including the latest Gazettes. The, music is also a feature of the programme.
