"The Ne'er Do Well."
Res Beach's stories of the wilds are among the mostly read in modern fiction. It is not surprising therefore that unusual success should attend the adaptation of these for motion picture purposes. "The Spoilers" when shown throughout the Dominion some time ago created a sensation everywhere. Now comes "The Ne'er Do Well," produced by Selig at the Panama Canal and enacted by Miss Kathlyn Williams with practically the entire "Bpoilers" casts. The Selig Company went to the great expense of building a special studio at Panama for this picture in order to do it full justice. The American rights to the him were bought by one Sol. Lesser for £30,000, but such was its success that the Selig Company bought it back from Lesser ou a fifty per cent increase. And still they're making money.
"The Ne'er Do Well" will be shown to - morrow (Wednesday) night only.
