been the only man who ever made any
money in connection with the Grand
Opera house.
After that there were various man
ayers, among which were L. NJ. Wood,
O. P Updegram, w. H. RoWles, G. f.
Kendall, a man named Alton, and a
man named MCCOY N. +. Handy and
Howell Jones were receivers after liti-
cation started. Then I was named re-
ceiver and manager. All that time an
effort was made TO keep it going.
Rowles is now KlaW & Erlanger's
manager in New Orleans. Mccoy went
into the show printing business in Chi
cago and became very wealthy. Alton
"The litigation proper took place
while Kendall had charge. He was in
the drys goods business in Topeka
when the place was built and fur
nished carpets and draperies for the
house, and took some stock. Later on
he took more and finally shouldered
the whole burden to protect his claim,
and 1t almost proved his financial UNI
doing. When he became sick, his
brother took the thing off his hands
and sold the place to the Crawfords,
the latter paying only a small part
down, however. Kendall was forced
later on to foreclose. I was then ap-
pointed receiver A bout four years
ago Arthur Kane took possession and
got ready to open the place. The
CrawfordS allied themselves with Kane
however, and the place has been dark
ever since, with the exception of pos
sibly few nights right after Kane
took hold. Ever since then the Craw-
fords have been paying $3.50 a month
rent on the house just to control it.
1T is one of the best and most beau
tiful houses that ever saw, and am
certainly glad to see it opened. It is
absolutely safe-a man might go to
sleep while the house is in flames and
escape unhurt. The great difficulty is
with the heating.n There never has
been enough radiation. I have seen
patrons sitting on the radiators on cold
nights while the show was in progress,
and were then shivering. But it can

BLACK IS THE THING.
It Is the Popular Color for Skaters
This Year.

London, Nov. 25--Skating has be-
gun, not outdoors, but at Princes
Skating Rink. Knightshire. It is
brilliant scene. From the opening
hour the ice is crowded by members
and their friends. There are over a
thousand names on the membership
roll, Princess Henry of Pless being
among the recruits. The rink has just
been decorated with mural paintings
of scenes in Egypt, the sunny coloring
of which gives a touch of warmth, re-
lieving the chilly impression of the icy
surface for the skaters. The amount
of black worn is noticeable. Not more
than a half dozen women are in col
ored dresses and the white skating
dresses, once so popular have quite
gone out of fashion, as have also the
cOlored petticoats under dark skirts.
Black velvet is the smart wear for
skating this winter, with a small col
ored hat or toque and no color else
where. Dresses are being worn
somewhat longer and very plain. Peo-
pie have at last realized that black
looks better on the ice than anything
else, and it will be sartorially a BLACK"
season at Prince s The morning and
early afternoon are the fashionable
hours for skating. although some peo-
pie come in after five for Waiting
alone. Lady Helen Vincent and the
Duchess of Bedford are always early
visitors, the latter often skating before
breakfast when she has the rink abso-
lutely to herself.

Dougherty's disappearance from the
management of n. 2. A. affairs had
resulted in the sale Of about $4,000
worth of old Kansas county bonds
which the association had held in its
treasury.
These bonds" said Mr.. Wilkinson,
were issued by far western counties
in boom times, and defauited in inter
est like similar bonds purchased by the
state school fund. We sold out the en-
tire S2o, 900 to parties who expect to
compromise them. There really will
be very little, if any, loss to the Edu-
cational association funds, as we sold
for only 50, 500 less than par, and the
bonds drew such a big rate Of interest
that they had made up the loss on the
principal. Mr.. Dougherty had always
commended that we should hold to these
bonds: I was of the opinion that the
association could not look after them
as closely as some private investor
might and that it would be a good
plan to dispose of them They were
finally left to me to handle, and ad-
vised the acceptance Of an offer which
was made for them.

So feet high. The stage is one of the
biggest in the west, and can handle
large shows to the utmost of satiSfac-
ton Incidentally some of the big
holes at the back of the stage have
been plugged up. Four large windows
and one large door have been entirely
walled shut with brick. Heretofore the
cold north and west winds have leaked
through these apertures and made liV-
ing almost unbearable for the actors.
While there is no painting going on
in the house proper vigorous use of
the scrub-brush, dust-rag and the
broom have been made. All of the
chairs which needed it, have been re-
upholstered. All are being thoroughly
cleaned up. The iron work has been
washed and in quite a few places shell
lacked and vanished where it was
found necessary. The ratings have
been repolished. Some new hangings
are found over the boxes. New car
pets are on all the aisles. The en-
trance has been rebuilt to an extent,
especially the floors. The platform in
front of the house has been entirely
reconstructed.
1t is a different looking place and
shows the effect of the money spent
accumulated IN the four years which
the place has been dark and this aided
materially in the decay. But Withal
the house withstood the darkness re-
markedly well.
The Grand will get the best shows
that come here this winter, which are
already booked for the Crawford. The
cheaper grade will stay on Kansas
avenue. Next season the Grand will
get booking all of its own.
Incidentally when the present show
season is over, namely next spring, the
Crawfords expect to spend considerab Bile
more money in remOdeling the house
still further. The parquet is to be

$4,000. This was the price independ-

Emma Abbott was engaged for the
