Bthier . f 1 tHK recent death of General "Lew I Wallace and the booking of the - I i play at the Marquam this month , recall the clrcumetancea of hla firt visit to Franklin Square-with 'the manuscript of "Ben Hut" under tola arm. He waa personally unknown, td -the Harpers at that time, and after Intro dusln himself he explained to J. Henry Harper that he had written toook which, dealt with the life of Christ Mr. Harper asked him if Christ actually appeared In he story, and General -Wallace replied that he did. Mr. Harper remarked. that thla sfibject was a delicate one to treat in a novel, and General Wallace an swered that If there waa anything- In the toty that would offend a fellow; Chris-, ttan he would rather cut off his right hand than publish 1C . ; He then explained to Mr. Harper that the book had resulted from a spirited controversy he hM held wlth-RqWt-O, Ingersoll on the subject of religion; In which Intersoirad" defeated', him ' In argument, General Wallace went .away from the "discussion with a troubled mind. -For some time he contemplated writing- a theological work whloh'Weuld strengthen rellgtaua faith at the point of Ingersoll's briUtanf attack. . But he de cided that theologians could do ,- that work' much better, than he, and, besides, his . desire- was - to- reach and,, help, the masses. He lay awake at night ponder. Ing tn flueettoa-which had Uken pos session of his mind, and eventually de cided to. writ a religious hovel which would embody his - understanding of re ligious truth "Ben Hur" waa the result. When General Wallace had told these Wliat Does tKc ' PuUic Want? (Contlnnued from Page Sixteen.) 'meet Alice, when he notices Claudia almost' In tears. Quickly he cornea back te her. "What is Itr he asks. "You love the Princess Alice better than you do me," half sobs the little glrL ' He catches her In his arms and tells .her there Is no one on earth that he . loves as much aa he loves her. ' Then he rushes jut. i Princess Alice comes while he Is gone and Is met by Claudia, who tries to be affectionate to her, but who la repelled by her. Back hastens Peyton now. In a few minutes It Is evident that Alice Is either no longer in love with Peyton or that something ha , happened... A soon as they are alone. It all cornea out. ' She doubts the story he hss written her about . Claudia and demands . proof -that he Is not Claudia" father." Peyton say that he WU1 give them gladly, "any proofs she wishes. . "Very well," she says, "send Claudia away." For scarce ly a second does he hesitate; then he says quietlyr"NvT.,-H hae ehosen - between- the two and she leaves; him with his choice. . - " By act three ' Claudia Is II.' Peyton has at last been sncoessful and Is now affluent. Claudia .has many . suitors. They are' all rejected. ' Meanwhile her love for Peyton has grown,' a love whtch she has not even dared to confess to 'herself.. Alice returns. She ha mar rled several year before and Is now a' widow.; Her return la met with sppre henslon by Claudia, and It la only when she la gone again that Claudia breathes freely once more. 1 The end Is. patent Peyton finally marries Claudia.-,.' , "TR stnrw ttaB-twim- tolit . tnltultelV In arc, how alight the so-called "love-In-terest"-Is. ..Yet as was said bef oTe ' It hold and moves - simply because It is In many. way so true and convincing. Of the characters in thla play nearly very on ring' true, l the artist and the ' -girl being ' especially . well draws -- To ' ;play the part of, Claudia, by the way. - three . actresses ' are required, one for 'each act two children for the first two acts and an ingenue for th . last . act. ' Throughout tha part waa exceptionally well acted, as Indeed was almost every character In the piece, -There can be .little doubt of the success or thla, play. aa ;"BenHurA " V- ri'b. facta to Mr. Harper he left tha - manu script, expressing the' hope' that hi own estimate of the work would be Indorsed bV the houses The story was 'read In the -usual way by the . readers of the nrm ana was promptly accepceo. uen erai Wallace told Mr., Harper later on that., he' . had written ' tha book In ' all ortaDf out-of-the-way place, -on boats, railway. In-.carriages; whenever, ho had an opportunity, afterward correcting and revising It with the utmost patience and-'car.- It seems astoniahlng that he had never been to the Holy Lauid-wnen he . wrote ."Ben Hur," but worked out the minute topography of me country. a It 1 represented .In tha-story, en tlrely from maps and readlng-He once said- to Mr. Harper that when he -event ually did visit Palestine be was himself surprised at tha absolute .accuracy of his descriptions, whtch tallied exactly with the facts; and he was fond of tell ing, how- he found - the. .very stoae -which be had Imagined as a resting place for Ben Hur at a certain point of the story. The book was published Noyember 11, 1880. and for the first year the sales hung Are; It showed ho- sign of general popularity. Then it began to grow, year by year. Translations were made In language after language. The sales still Increased and everybody read It' Two million copies of It have been sold and the demand shows no sign of abate ment. 'Its yearly Bales are-greater now 21 year after It first appearance---than they have ever been. Another dis tinguishing feature of Its success I the fact that it ha never been Issued in an edition cheaper than th form In which It waa originally published. On the other hand, 14 editions do luxe have been Issued, and it career conclusively shows .that the public baa accepted th book as decisively a th .publishers did, and has set the stamp of Its-approval upon Its manifest sincerity and worth.
