. THE KING'S. . "The Sen Wolf" at the King's Theatre is proving a strong attraction, and another very large attendance was present last night, standing room only being the order long before 8 o'clock. This powerful story of the sea is a remarkable one m uiany respects, and is full of striking episodes and strong situations. The film keeps close to Jack London's popular story, and succeeds in holding the interest of the onlooker to the last. Tho fine actus of Hobart Bosworth as Wolf Larsen if convincing that it is hard to imagine that it is acting:, and that the camera man is present at the mid and terrible scenes on board The Ghost. There is an air of reality, a true atmosphere of the sea about the picture that makes one believe that the various incidents are actual happenings. . The film, which is preceded on the programme by an excellent Pathe Gazette," will bo shown up to and including Saturday night.
