Marie Doro, whose motion picture debut m the humous I'luyers produc tion "The Morals of Marcus," ami Mubsequetit appearance in the aim company's "The White Pearl," stamped her as one of the most win some and altogether charming ac tresses on the screen, will shortly be seen in the Famous Players-Charles Frohmun adaptation of the celebrated Kardou drama "diplomacy," which will lie the Paramount picture at the Ar cade tonight and tomonrow. This is by no means the first time that Marie - Doro has played in "Dinlomacv." ns she was co-star with 'William Gillette and Blanche Bates - in the stage version of the play at the Empire Theatre, Now York, last year. At thut time she wus declared by the New York critics to be the real tain of the production, as her work in the role of Dora the some one which she plays in the motion picture was the most finished and most de- 'liffhtful of all. One of them ex pressed it as follows: "It is Marie Doro who is the star of all stars in the play. She is not only an actress ; of rare charm, equal alike to light comedy and tense situations, but she is unusually beautiful. 'In the scene hi which, her husband nukes it known that sho is suspected of being a spy, of having betrayed Count Orion and of having stolen the precious docu ments, she is the central figure and carries the entire burden of the action and character portrayal." In support of Miss Doro there ap pear such distinguished players as Eliott Dexter. Edith Campbell Walk er, Kussell Bassett, Frank Losce ami George Majcroni. "The-Nc'er Do Well." "The Nd'cr-Do-Wcll," by Rex Beach, the Selig spectacular dram., filmed by the Selig Polyscope com pany, features Wheeler Oakman and Kathlyn Williams and an all-star cast. The hero is Kirk Anthony, a college graduate, a veteran football player, and, since graduation the coach of his university team. On the evening fol lowing a football victory, the last of the season, Kirk and others start out to celebrate. Late that night he finds himself on shipboard, and when he awakens he is without money and no baggage. During tha voyage Kirk becomes acquainted with a -woman a Mrs. Stephen Cortlandt whom he learns to udmire very much. She is really a diplomatic agent of great in fluence. One day wmle Kirk is out hunting he meets in a forost bower, a Spanish girl who is known only us "Chiquita." He falls desperately in love with her, und'tries vainly to dis cover her identity. The story of his making gowk, of bis winning of Chi quit despite the counter-plotting') of Mrs. Cortlandt, of the clearing of his name, and of the final decisive inter vention in Panamanian affair of old Darwin K. Anthony, rs strongly en grossing and varied by many richly numerous episodes. Chiquita is by far the most charming feminine char acter Rex Beach has drawn, and Kathlyn Williams as Edith Cortlandt is an exceedingly uonvincing and fas cinating type. "The Ne-er-Do-Well" will be shown on Sunday and Monday at the Arcade theatre. s AT SHERRY'S Col. A.C.Macomb Col. Macomb is at the head ot the Fourteenth U.
