purposes come et last. On the east side
OF Dorrance street, just south OF Pine
street, there is q big plastered stone edifice
now used chiefly as a junk shop, which
something more than half q century ago
was the chief amusement resort in Provi-
denoe and In IL was enterteined the
youth, beauty and wealth OF the city.
Shakespeare Hall 1t was called and IL car
risd on its pilsstered front bust OF the
i'm mortal bard OF Sira,ford-on- Avon. II
was built by company made mp OF some
OF the city's leading business men and
was opened on Oct. 20, 1888. under the
management of James u. Meader ana
Thomss Flynn, with a double bill "a
Soldiers Daughter ana "a Pleasant
Neighbor. On this occasion Mrs. Clara
Fisher Meader recited a prologue written
by Mrs. Whitman. At the theater there
appeared oil the leading stars OF that day,
bat IL was never q paying investment
for either managers or stockholders. X

October, 1914, entailing a loss OF $50, 600
I'm excess OF the insurance. In the build
ing at the time was the planetsrium of
DIR. Lardnor, the noted lecturer on astro-
nomical subjects, which ID had taken 20
years TO build ana which was valued at
