which bids fair to result in new and
modern opera house to take the place
of the old and lily arranged hall that has
done service as theatre resort for near
y thirty years.
The new project,i it is estimated will in
volve an outlay of nearly $4,000.
The main wing Of the present build
ing is to be torn down completely. The
structure which is to take it's place will
be some twenty feet wider and about
forty feet deeper.
The basement will be used exclusively
for gymnastic purposes, while the por-
ton above ground will be devoted ex-
clusively to theatres and dances.
The seating capacity, it is intended,
shall be at least 1900 and the chairs will
all be raised. II .e1
| The floor will be movable so that tie
hall can be used for dancing. If =
The stage alone will be forty feet deep
and about seventy feet wide, large enough
in fact for the production of the biggest
plays. &s-e.s .s.,rs.
| The whole will be heated with steam
and lighted with electricity from the
Turnverein' own dynamo. The interior
of the opera house portion will be COST
ly furnished, so that New Ulm will have
an amusement house that she can open
| with pride to all.
The Turnverein Is to be compliment
ed upon this enterprising move and there
is hardly citizen who will not join in
| wishing it success.

given an impetus lately that gives every
