Theater Wired Yesterday.
The new theater, which Peters
& Ilichards are overhauling for
H. M. Shlaes, is rapidly nearing
completion. Warga & Cecil wore
at work nt lhe wiring for electric
lights yesterday and Unlay. The
new idace will be one of the
swellest pleasure resorts in the
city and will be cooled by electric
fans. A front and side entrance
and exit will render lhe theater
popular and Increase the ventila
lion, as well fts lessen the danger
from fire.
Look Out for Him.
If a good looking "young man
enters your place of business,
hands over a handful of silver and
asks you to give him a $10 bill for
it, call the police if you do so
without exciting suspicion. Such
a youlh is cleaning up from ten
lo twenty cartwheels each day in
cities. His plan is to secure the
bill and pretend lo seal it up in
an envelope. In counting tho
silver, the victim finds there i9 a
dollar missing. Pretending to bo
greatly surprised, the swindler
takes all the money, leaves the
envelope presumed to contain the
bill for security, and promises to
return with the required sum. He
never conies back. When the en
velope is opened it is found to be
minus the sf 1 0 bill. The aut hot-
it ies of many cities would be glad
lo grab this prince of audacity and
save future victims.

Is Progressing.

raising funds for the financial end
