To Build the Proposed
Science Hall?
Apathy Attacks Alumni
Association,
And the. Enterprise May Finally
be Abandoned.

"What has become of the Buchtel
College Alumni Association?' is a
question asked frequently these days.
Eve have not held meeting for
almost a year. said a member of the
association to a Democrat reporter,
Saturday.
The inactivity of the Alumni Associa-
ton does not augur well for the pro-
posed Science hall, for which founda-
ton was built some years ago. When
the Alumni Association took hold of
the matter, there was considerable en-
thusiasm exhibited among the mem
bers, but the burning of the college
building, and the necessity Of contri-
buttons to rebuild, somewhat dampened
the ardor of the Alumni, and ever
since tnen, nothing has been doing.
Really" said a member of the
Alumni, ~ don't believe Science hall
will ever be built--or, at least, not for
many years to come"

An organization, embracing the
managers Of every theater in Ohio, out
side of Cincinnati, Cleveland and Co
lumbus, is being formed by Manager
L. X. Albaugh, of the Grand opera
house.
1t is for the purpose of mutual protec-
ton that the step is being taken. 1t Is
claimed that the present war tax on
theaters is unjust, in that the man
ayers of the play houses in the small
er cities are compelled to pay the same
tax as those In the larger cities. 1t is
believed that a mutual effort on the
part of the managers may result in the
reduction of this tax. Another object
is to guard against the fake companies
which have been so numerous this
year, advertising one thing and pro-
ducing another.
1t is hoped to bring the first conven-
ton of the managers to Akron. Mr..
Albaugh has sent the following letter
to every manager in Ohio:
Akron, O., Feb. %, 1901.
My Dear Sir: AS you well know
there are many reasons why we should

they passed, each imp seemed to pause
and smile mockingly at him.
The next night, the trio met at Mrs.

Croesus felt that the moment was
