The Judean hills, clothed with cedar and spreading oak as ii Davids time, are reproduced in the ieauty that inspired the psalmis to lift his eves to the hills whence came his help. At the end of ten years David has an opportunity to slay Saul, bui he remembers his vow with Jonathan, and makes his escape to Ziklag in the land of the Philistines. Saul in his rage causes the priests of Nob to be slain, attempts U kill his own son. and yet there are moments when his weakness en lists sympathy. David, in exile, lives the simple life of poet anc singer. In Saul's last battle on the plains of Esdraelon the Philis. tine chariots ride down the Israelites; Jonathan is slain; and Saul coming upon the dead body of Jonathan, falls by his own sword. A thrilling chariot pursuit occurs wlien the .\malekite flees with tiding! to David closely pressed by the warrior Jashobeam. David in Ziklag weeps over the news of the death of Jonathan, and refuses the crown given him by the Amalekites who stole il from Saul's body. David returns to Hebron amid great rejoicing, is reunited _ to Michal, and the prophet Gad places Saul's crown upon him as king in Judah. The crippled son of Jonathan is adopted by David. Inf excess of joy David chants the last verse of the twenty-third psalm The photodrama having taken its living characters through love and intrigue, ambition and fidelity—in closing, enjoins universal brotherhood and fidelity to friendship. The simplicitv of the times gives value to the story; the ruggea- ness of these primitive characters emphasizes their fine sentiments. The Chosen Prince: 8 reels.
