NO PROSPECT OF OPERA HOUSE.
Hon. J. N. Haynes Will at Once Repair Burn.
ed Block

The insurance ON the Opera House
block burned the night before the
Fourth has been adjusted, and, Fri
day, the first active steps were taken
toward removing the debris from the
building. There were number of men
at work, and teams We're used for TAX
ing out from the rear some of the
burned timbers
Hon. j, Manchester Haynes was found
supervising, and giving instruc-
tons and was asked by a Journal re-
rebuilding. He replied:
Il intend to first put on the roof. to
keep things dry below; then | will have
the offices ready for occupancy, as soon
as possible. The stores on the street
floor, and those on the second, | will
have fixed up pretty much as before"
How about the Opera house. Do
you intend to rebuild that part of it?''
Il do not expect now to rebuild it,
That aug iiStet ought 10 nave an
Opera house. and know of no other
place for one than where it was form
erly situated"
If you won't rebuild it, do you know
anyone who will; and if so would you
dispose of your property to them"
Most certainly | would and at Il
bargain. I am ready to talk on that
matter any time"
Mr.. Haynes further said, when asked
what he would do, in case 10 one
stepped forward to build an Opera
house. that he hadn't fully decided to
what use he would put the space form
erly occupied by the Opera house. He
would in all likelihood however. have
part of it made into perhaps q hall
But on this he had made no plans
Nathaniel Noyes & Son will do the
work of putting on the roof, etc. and
will start in at once.
