A large and very enthusiast tic audi
company at the Armery last evening,
The orchestra work was we'll received
and several encores were responded
to. A medley of operas, a descriptive
selection introducing the Indian
'Pow-wsw' dance and the Poet and
Peasant were among favorites. A
big feature of the entertainments was
the excellent work done with the
musical novelties introducing the
marimbaphone, sonnerphone, bells,
and the beautiful aluminium chimes.
Miss Hazel Kirk Strayer; the star of
the company, proved herself most
excellent entertainer and received
f1attering encores to her numbers.
She gives the higest promise of be-
coming one of the greatest singers
of the world. Her voice is fine Ly-
ric soprano of remarkable compass,
and deliciously sweet in it's entir
range. Aside from the musical gifts
and attachments she has graceful
ness of bearing and gra"iousness
of manner that is winsome and charm
ing. Added to all this is fine and
expressive face that is more than
handsome. Madaline Hudson played
| 'sLegerd de" by G. Bohn; also a Hum
garian dance, shut was better .heard

NOTABLE IMPROVEMENTS.
1t Promises to be a Busy
Year in the Matter of
Building.

A number of handsome buildings are
projected for this season in Sank
Centre, and there will be an activity
along that line greater, peIhaps, than
the city ever experienced in any one
year.
| Ground has been broken by St.
Paul's parish for handsome brick
church, with cut stone foundation, to
occupy the site just west OF the present
ediice. 1t is not expected the build
Ing will be completed this year, though
1t may be SO far advanced as to admit
OF its occupation. It's estimated cost
when completed is said to be about
$40, 900. ..... ..s
A library building will be erected on
the corner of Main and Fifth-sts.-the
sight of the old Congregational
church, which will cost $4,000. 1t
will be built of of brick, with high
stone foundation, setting it we'll above
the street. 1t will be ornate, as be-
comes it's uses, and will be a conspicu-
Gus edifce.
The Congregationalists will build a.
beautiful church upon the lot recently
acquired by them on the corner of
Fifth and Oak-sts., at a cost of about
$4,000. The plans indicate that it will
be handsome building. finely finished
| aud furnished.
The Meth odist church is undergoing
! changes and extension which will give
it every appearance of an entirely
new building, and it, too, will be a
| very pretty structure. ....
The Grand Army Post has decided
to make very extensive changes in the
Grand Opera house. The exterior
will be covered with pressed steel-th
| front in imitation of stone, very like
the Odd Fellows building, and the
sides in imitation of brick. It will be
notable Improvement. Work will
be commenced at an early day.
Hanson & Emerson have their plans
for very radicsl changes in their
| building corner of Main and Third
SITS. The front will be brought for
ward several feet, to line with the
other buildings on Main, and cut stone
and plate glass will enter very largely
into the extension. Like improve
ments will extend from the corner
| down the Third-st front for about
twenty feet. Several thousands of
dollars will be expended in remodeling
the building. Handsome new fixtures
will be put in, and the store made as
attractive as it's commanding location
demands.
Several residences will be erected
being the first to take definite shape,
although John Dimond's house will
be the first to be occupied, but tina
was commenced last fall.
The school house will be repaint
and otherwise mproved-which will
greatly alter the appearance of the
property, although no large amount
of money will be expended.
The new bridges on the Third-st.
extension are completed and cost a
little over $4,000.
Other improvements are contem-
plated, but have not taken defn tie
form so far as the HERALD is in
formed.

ooRBETTs STARRING PARTNER
Sam Berger Picked as the Man to
Whip Jim Jeffries

san Francisco, Cal, Dec. eddie Ora
ney. the well known referee, says he re
gards sam Berger as the most promising
young heavyweight now before the pub
nc. Berger is a San Francisco boy and
mas learned his lessons at boxing at the
olympic club in, this city. This club has
turned out spc1 boxers as Jim Corbett,
Joe Choynski. and more recently Jimmy
Britt. Berger is considered by Craneyi 10
pc the equal ofDeither Corbett or Choyn-
SKI when they were still boxing as anna
tenrs at the Olympic club. ne
Berger is 20 years old 6 feet and inch
tall and weighs $50 pounds. He is still
growing and will surely take on more
weight as he gets older He never smokes
or drinks, SO his condition is as near per-
rect as possible. In the art of boxing he
has had more than ordinary training I'M
DER careful instruction of Prof. Van
Court, who is the best boxing teacher N
the city, and to add to this Berger was
Corbetts sparring partner last summer
and acted in the same capacity for Fitz-
simmons when the latter was preparing
for his fight with Gardner. Berger is a
cleverness of Corbett's footwork and also
all the tricks of the foxy old Cornish
man.
Graney takes all these points into con-
slderat1on, and then states that by the
time berger becomes professional of
the limit of any ordinary fighters career
and that Berger will be just the sort of 4
fellow to win the championship. Berger
will go to st. Louis next summer to box
for the amateur championship of the
world and then eastern critics will have a
chance to pass on his abilities. Out here
there are a good many followers of the
game who agree with Graney in his pre-
diction that Berger will some day wear
the heavyweight championship belt.

The Cardinals Will Be Strengthened
by First-CIass Players.


Cleveland, o., Dec. Frank De Haas
Robson, owner of the st. Louis Ma
tional League club, departed this after
noon for the National league meeting
at New York. He denied the story that
he had lost $4,000, although he admit
ted that the balance for the year was
on the wrong side of the ledger. When
asked for an opinion on the interview
sons manager is quoted as saying he
would not return to st. Louis. he
said:
II prefer not to discuss the Donovan
matter. I will say this, however, Mr..
Donovan and ourselves have always got
along nicely together and if we ask
him to come back believe he will. The
st. Louis National will be much strong
er next year than they were during the
last season. In the first place, I believe
the bread that I cast upon the waters
many years ago is about to return to
me double-fold. In other words, am
going to be repaid for the players that
1 gave other teams, when they were
in distress. l have already bee prom
ised several star players, and feel
sure that the men making the promises
will fulfill their word, as they are men
of honor. No, they are not has beens.
1 have had enough of this class and the
men that I will receive will be a
strength. to any team With the World S
fair being held in St. Louis, the league
recognizes that we must have a strong
team I would not ask for players were
it not that there is but little league
material to be secured from the mi
nOrS."
