FITS UP COMMODIOUS DOWN TOWN HALL J. H. Broomfield has leased the en tire building on South Fourteenth street between Dodge and Douglas in which the People’s Drug store is lo cated and has fitted up the third ] story as an attractive, commodious } and well appointed hall. Many years i ago this hall was quite popular as a ! lodge room and a place for public entertainments. Mr. Broomfield has I had many improvements made. The entire interior of the building has been renovated, painted and most ar tistically decorated. A new floor has been laid so smooth and attractive that it invites the dancer. The hall has convenient cloak rooms, dressing and rest rooms and the usual con veniences of a well-appointed public hall. The main hall is about sixty feet square. Mr. Broomfield has not yet named the hall and requests through The Monitor the public to suggest an appropriate name. AN APPEAL An Opportunity for the Negroes of Omaha to Co-operate. For what? To finish the main au ditorium, beginning June -, this year. Dr. Ray E. York, superintendent of state missions, spent the Lord’s day with this church and helped to work out a plan for the money. The church members and Negroes of Omaha are to raise $10,000 cash on deposit by May 18. A select com mittee of white citizens has consented to give and indorse the work for $10, 000 among the white people of the city, which will complete to the credit of the race, this much needed build ing. Sunday, March 23, was the 6th anni- j versary since the tornado destroyed i this church. The congregation has raised and paid already more than $20,000 on the present building. We hope at least to have 5,000 Negro citi zens to give from one dollar up. REV. W. F. BOTTS, Pastor.
