The stellar attraction at the Audi torium for Wednesday and Thursday will be Kitty Gordon in the World Film feature, The Crucial Test, a five part picture of revolutionist life, where the sister of an anarchist plotter plays an important role in saving him from death after an unsuccessful attempt on the life of the Grand Duke of Russia later bringing about the destruction Of the dislilzed ruler by trapping him, thereby making him easy prey for her brother.
 With this big feature, two other at fractions of importance will be shown the first being a one-part drama en- titled The Fireman's Nemesis, which is most clever, and the last picture that will be thrown on the screen at this show will be comedy bearing the title Some Bravery.
 For today's show Theda Bara in The Vixen is the center of attra ction- This picture is one of Miss Bara'S strongest productions and is drawing large crowds all over the country. With this feature the Selig Tribune weekly and the comedy Quest of the Golden Gate are being shown. Patria, Mrs. Vernon Castles famous serial picture, will soon be shown at this theatre. Watch the papers for the late.
