New Opera House Opened
About five hundred proud and pat
riotic citizens of McCook attended the
opening of the New McCook opera
house last evening by the Curtis Mus
ical Comedy Co in The Ten Thousand
Dollar Beauty The performance was
along vaudeville lines and only partially
realized the expectations of the people
Tho music by the orchestra was very
acceptable and warmly approvod
Some difficulty in the power house
and failure in the lighting system de
layed the opening of tho performance
till 930 oclock and it was not feasible
to illuminate the building entirely then
Although the building is still in a
somewhat incomplete condition enough
progress has been made to warrant the
expectation that McCook is to realize
more than its most roseate dreams in the
matter of an auditorium
Sam Amburgh of Denverto whom be
longs the credit of the excellent stage
work has been building stages for the
past twenty five years and is a past
master in the art
Manager Bixler and the people of Mc
Cook are to be congratulated
The Curtis Co appears tonight Sat
