That the Columbia theater is not going to tackle the movie game in any . half-hearted manner was well evi- denced hy their opening program last night. Nothing that could be done to add to the coolness and comfort of the patrons had been overlooked and in addition to the really splendid program.

 'Wildfire" will, of course. always be remembered as one of the very best vehicles that Lillian Russel ever had It made thousands of dollars for her and endcared her to countless hundreds who had never been able to see her in the good old light opera and musical comedy days. Even in the hey day Of her youth the fair Lillian never ap- peared to greater advantage than she did in this play and in the movie yer sion 1t is possible to handle the situa- tions in a manner much more imposing than on the stage. besides giving op portunitieS for many scenes which were quite impossible in the original production.

Seeing the gun didn't fire worth a darn, Cross exerted himself moderately, acquired it and damned Jeff over the cabeza with it. This method was more eff fective than pulling the trigger. as the city physician discovered when he bound up the Jefferson cranium at the police station later
 Jefferson made a lot of talk about an assault by Cross while being at tended by the physician at his office. Meanwhile Cross had presented him self at the police station and told the whole story.
 Night Captain of Police McGrath and Constable Morrell- then went out and became possessed of the person of Cross. who had proceeded on his way, and now both Cross and Jeffer- son are languishing in the city strong room awaiting an inquisition.
