NEW THEATRE OPENED.
Hale's Playhouse, Managed by LaPoint,
Presented "Why Girls Leave Home"

Hale's theatre, new playhouse made
out of the dancing pavilion on Pearl
street, was opened to the public last
evening with performance Of why
Girls Leave Home, with fair attend
ance. This theatre has literally sprung
up in the night Although plans were
drawn some time ago, the work of re-
modelling was not started until this
week. At midnight Sunday night a
gang Of workmen was set at work. A
stage had to be built, scenery installed,
wiring done and seats placed. These
and many other things had to be finished
III two days, and it looked like an impos-
sibility. But thirty men were put to
work yesterday, and the last nail was
driven at about the same time the cur
tain was rung mp on the first act of
the reason why girls leave their homes.
The hall will seat five or six hundred
people, with movable, raised seats in
the center, and three rows of benches
down two sides. The stage is of ne
eessity small, so that the hero rushing
at the villain need take but one glide
and there he is. The room Is we'll light
ed. The dressing rooms Of the players
are the old dance hall cloak rooms
in the rear of the room, upstairs. The
actors get to the stage by means of a
closed passageway, just under the roof.
Other changes will be made, such as
raising the roof above the stage to allow
OF a taller drop.
Gilbertson's orchestra furnished music
last evening. The building il owned by
O. II. Hale, and the theatre Is managed
by w. w. LaPoint

that could be found in Alstaad had been
poured into Ford's room in the hope
