Burtis Opera House No More.

Some weeks ago THE ARGUS stated that
the Burtis Opera House was to be trans
formed into billiard room and that the
stage fixtures, seats, etc, were for sale.
The Davenport papers poOh-poohed about
it and tried to deny it. Now it is admitted
that The ARGUS was correct From a
column and half article in the Democrat
OF yesterday, we clip the following:
The Burtis Opera House will soon cease
to be place of amusement. In few
weeks the work of Transforming the Opera
House into hotel will be begun. The
staging, scenery, fixtures, curtains, furni-
ture, seating and all other histrionic appur
tenances are now for sale. Our
pride will be humbled when we are told
that Davenport has no decent public hall.
and when great musical or dramatic lights
decline to visit us for that reason. n =
Our people are too much in the habit of
spending thousands of dollars on circuses
and other humbugs that visit us, and of
letting legitimate and deserving enter
talnment starve When great artistic or
a good company comes to Davenport our
citizens have generally allowed such to 90
begging; The consequence is, managers
have left US severely alone, and the Opera
House remained empty, an expense to its
proprietor, DR.. Burtis does
not wish to bore the citizens of Davenport
with an institution which they cannot an
preciate, and which they do not appear to
want, And so he will appropriate the
building to his own private use and make
1t part of his great hotel. What shall
we do? will be the question with our pleas
ure-seekers. We answer, you will have to
hunger and thirst until some other public
spirited citizen will build us an Opera
House Perhaps that event will occur
sometime in the dim future. But in the
meantime we must go back to where we
were six years ago. ~

The days Of excursions have come again
and Rock Island is the place to visit. To-
day THE llthl five very crowded car
loads of people, numbering some 500,
came in on the Peoria road from about
Galva, Cambridge and Orion. How 500
men women, women and children could
get into five coaches will be mystery to
most people-but they did it. except those
who hung by the steps or crowded the ca
bOOse and baggage ear-and we are told
that 300 more wanted to come but could
neither find standing room or hold
on TO the COW catcher A consid-
cradle number dined at hotels and restau-
rants, while not few brought along their
lunch in baskets. As an average they
were very nice appearing people, but
there was, of course, the usual amount of
"spooney' element This class is found
on all such excursions, and seems to have
a vague idea that hotels grow or fall from
the clouds, and that they belong exclusive
ly to the public, and, somehow. areinteud-
ed for people who never miss meal or
pay cent. 1t is vastly edifying to see
representatives of this class walk into no
tel parlors with their lunch baskets and
and cOolly take possession, expecting to use
wash room, water closets, tables, sofas.
chairs, ETC., as free as air. And when DO
litely asked if they wish to register. they
seem to think such question a strange
one. 'SpOoney' always learns something
though, on such trip, and is careful not
to put his foot into it again. 1t is COM
forting to know that the ''spOoney" ele-
ment is small in all these gatherings.
Most people who visit hotels make the ac-
quaintance Of the man at the desk first
Their stay in the house is much pleasanter
after that.
Some 80 or 40 of these people dined at
the Harper. Others dined at other hotels
and restaurants, and large number of
them had basket picnic and Jolly good
time Oh the lawn in Court House Square.
After lunch they played croquet, and Wis
tied most places of interest in this locality.
Quite large party of them chartered the
ferry boat to take them to the Arsenal
grounds, but when they got there they
were not permitted to land They enjoy
ed the trip, however, and after taking
trip to Davenport, returned They seem
ed pleased with all they saw, and, no doubt,
enjoyed the day keenly.
