Feature at Parsons' Wins Admiration of Large Audience. i "The Queen of Sheba," the big William Pox spectacular and artistic picture diamu, exhibited for the first time outside of New, York, drew a capacity crowd to Parsons's Theater last nlKdt, and kept the audlen thrlllen throughout. Founded on the L'iblkal story of Solomon and the beautiful Khchnn queen, the play depicts many of the Incidents of the Ilibllcnl tale and surrounds them with a vivid romance Hint makes the story worthy of the elaborate production it has been given, Krom a spectacular viewpoint alone the play vmes close to hitting the pinnacle of photoplay magnitude.

In srene after en-no hundreds of people nie used, while. In the big battle scene of the picture, the filming has been done In a manner that, makes the spectacular atruggle on the draw-brldue, over the moat Into the. palace of King Solomon, very realistic. The dnsh up the great spiral runway rf the "Tower of lavld" In which the Queen of Khoba, In a chariot orawn by f'liir huue Arabian horses, leads her mounted army wu a scene that thrilled the audience to a degree seldom accomplished by a moving picture. There are many other thrilling mob scenes staned with a remarkable degree of picture stage craft, Among these Is a scene in a amphitheater In 'which chariot races are being given In honor of the Queen of Whelm and where, challenged by her rival for the favor of KInir Solomon, she drives her own chariot to a thrilling victory.

The details Incident to this scene are remarkably well done, a crash of two chariots going at. top speed and the hurling of their drivers under the hoofs of the chariots rushing behind them was so realistically done that It brought screams from some of the women In the house. From slart to finish the drilling of the huge army of niiors has been so well done that there Is not a slip In any scene. Artistically, the picture has been given a splendid produett-on. The scenery and costuming has apparently done without retard to expense and tho filming has been done In a manner tha brings out the full-extent of this lavish production particularly well.

Aside from the hugeness end' lav-Ishness of thn production, the play holds an Interest that would make It exceptionally i-ntertalnlnir as a drama, even on a less spectacular scale.
