ACH "The Ne'er-Do-Well." - "The Ne'er-Do-Well." by Rex Beach, the Selig spectacular drama filmed by the Selig Polyscope Com pany, features Wheeler Oakman and Kathlyn Williams and an all-star cast. The ljero is Kirk Anthony, a college graduate, a veteran football pljhyer, and, since graduation the coach of his university team. On the evening following a football victory, the last of the season, Kirk and oth ers start out to celebrate. Late that night he finds himself on shipboard, and when he awakens he is without money and without baggage. Dur ing the voyage Kirk becomes ac quainted with a woman a Mrs. Stephen Cortlandt whom he learns to admire very much. She is really a diplomatic agent of great influence. One day while Kirk Is out hunting he meets In a forest bower, a Spanish girl who is known only as "Chiqulta." He falls desperately in love with her, and tries vainly to discover her iden tity. The story of his making good, of his winning of Chlquita despite the counter plottlngs of Mrs. Cort landt, of the clearing of his name, and of the final decisive intervention in Panamanian affairs of old Darwin K. Anthony, Is strongly engrossing and varied by many richly humorous episodes. Chiqulta is by far the most charming feminine character if Rex Beach has drawn, and Kathlyn Williams as Edith Cortlandt is an ex ceedingly convincing and fascinating type. "The Ne'er-Do-Well" will be shown on Sunday at the Star theatre. I.W.B.M.
