Few novels have been more widely read in the last forty years than St. Elmo, a dramatization of which is to be presented at the Ellis theatre, this evening. When the author, Mrs. Augusta Evans-Wilson, died a few months ago, she left an estate of $600,000. Over 75 per cent of this, it is said, represented her royalties on St. Elmo. Mrs. Wilson was constantly besieged with offers to permit the book to be made into a stage story, but only once, it is understood, was she persuaded to allow a pl ay from it to be presented. This was some years ago and exercising a woman’s privelege, she changed her mind and the play was withdrawn. Now it has been made into what sterling critics call an excellent play, bringing into life the best situations and most thrilling incidents of the hovel. The dramatization is by Miss Grace Hayward, whose literary bent has kept pace with her bright stage career. That it will please a great mass of theatregoers is indicated by the cordial reception given, it in several cities in which it has been presented.
