A Tudor Gallant.

A gallant's toilet was no easy busl-
ness, and a slow or clumsy servant no
doubt got many an oath and blow If
he failed to tie up the points of the
hose, lace the doublet or arrange the
stomacher and frilled shirt to his mas
ter's satisfaction. a gentleman's dress
had so many fastenings, with so
much tying and lacing Of his garments
together, that it was impossible that
he should ever get costumed (sic) with
out assistance. The long hose had to
be securely tied by number of latch
cts to the doublet; the doublet itself
was laced up the front, and the sleeves,
being slashed to show the shirt sleeves,
had also to be laced sometimes.-"Hi

During the reign of William and
Mary in England worthy bishop com
plained to the latter that the ladies of
the court were wont to fix their eyes on
their neighbors rather than on him
during his discourses. 1t apparently
never occurred to the divine that the
fault might lie in the sermons them
selves. By consent of the queen high
pews were introduced to prevent wan
dering eyes. "As for the young ladies
for whose spiritual welfare they We're
devised" says writer. their indigna-
tion was only surpassed by the rage Of
their admirers" From that time
high pews were commonly placed in
churches.

Fnrriers who Lame Horses.

"Talliing about the ailments of
horses and especially their feet" said
the owner of several fine animals, "a
curious mistake common among black
smiths was pointed out to me recently
by IL veterinary surgeon to whom |
took horse that had become lame
gradually, with considerable heat in
his feet. After glancing at the beast
the veterinary quickly called my at
tention to the fact that most farriers,
being righ handed, unintentionally
lower the left side of the foot more
than the right side. AS result the
pastern does not set quite even on the
coffin bone or the bone suspended in
side the wall of the hoof, and in time
the conclusion of the foot on the road
produces soreness of the joint, which
could not exist if the foot were level
"a trifle out of joint, so to speak,
the foot at night cannot repair the in
jury received or the fatigue of the
day. 1t gradually gets feverish and
then tender, and the horse is suddenly
seen to limp. | have noticed this in
hundreds of cases. The lameness dis
appears in a few days if the cause
be removed by leveling up the foot

praise, none will say that the least of
them are the architects.

al representative on construction was

sharp tongue have kept the workmen on

Managers Are Chosen.
The management of the new temple
to the muses. has been entrusted to J.
Frank Conklin and A. E. Zonne, long
associated in the management Of the old
Grand operahouse, the most popular
theater the city ever had. AS mana
gers they had high ideals which met
with ready approval from the citizens
of Minneapolis and proper recognition
With these men in control, the public is
eminently satisfied.
No definite plans outside Of those con.
nected with the formal opening, the
grand opera season and the pipe organ
dedication have yet been announced
but these will come later.
In the meantime it. is suggested to
the citizens generally that they take ad
over the building, taking cognizance OF
the many Innovations Introduced and
the harmonious arrangement Of the es
sentials with the purely ornamental. 1t
is worth any ones time. Minneapolis
will be congratulated far and wide fol
her zeal, enterprise and public spirit
and every artist and operate company
that appears there will call down bless
ings on the city.

That the building hardware used in
the construction adds to or mars the
beauty or the finish Of our modern
buildings is shown in that Of the new

Of plain design, Barr Baref finish being

equipped with the Ruxson liquid door

Splendid Lighting System.

The electric lighting system Of the
new Auditorium building is a distinct
success. The electrical installation was
done by the Bijou Electric company, the
head office Of which is in Minneapolis
in the Biiou Theater building. All the
wiring is installed in an 1ron-armored
conduit and all the material and equip
ment that entered into this big contract
is of the very latest and most approved
kind. From the ceiling. of the Audi
forum are suspended five mammoth

receiving applications for $2,000,O00 of
insurance at the company's prevailing
rates without expense to the company
except for the medical examination.
Each applicant was to agree to pay the
first annual premium before construc-
ton began and the second annual pre-
MUM with note due in one year.
On it's part the company agreed that
the building should be wholly fireproof,
date a chorus of 400 voices on the
stage, and should be constructed in
compliance with the building -ordi-
nances of the city. Furthermore, the
Auditorium was to be placed under the
control of a competent manager and
always be available for the purposes
intended at a reasonable price.
Having assured themselves, thru Ell
mer H. Dearth, the state insurance COM
missioner, that the company was fnan-
cially sound and capable Of swinging
the enterprise, the real work Of solicit
ing insurance began.
The Work of Soliciting.
Many organizations took part in the
work, the call for help being signed by
the Commercial club, the Philharmonic
club, the Thursday Musical, the Teach
ers' club, the Wennerberg Choral asso-
citation, the Retail Merchants associa-
ton, the Roosevelt club and the Apollo
club. Much self-sacrifcing and enthusi-
astic work was done and the applica-
tons began to roll in on the Northwest
ern National Life. It was a great work
and there were many willing workers.
But when credit is given to whom it is
due, A. c. Paul and W. l.. Shepherd
must receive the most praise. Without
their energetic efforts it is doubtful If
the plan would have been effectuated.
At any rate, it would have taken a
much longer time to secure the neces-
sary applications. They were ably as
sisted by Wallace G. Nye.
When the required amount Of life in
surance had been written, the company
rose to the emergency as actively as the
citizens and made preparations for be-
ginning work on the construction.
Bertrand & Chamberlin were selected as
the architects and were given carte
blanche to provide building suited to
the wants of the public. 1t has been
a labor of love for Messrs. Bertrand
and Chamberlin to prepare the plans,
work out the details and supervise the
work, watching the naturalization of
their ideas in solid substance of metal,
wood and stone. A detailed description

One of the important requirements
for building of this kind is the plumb

in the minds of the management and
architects in planning the building.
There are eight large toilet rooms pro-

ances. The stage folks have been pro-
vided with four toilet rooms, and in
each dressing room there has been
placed an enameled iron lavatory with
hot and cold water supplied to each.

The Heat and Ventilation.

One of the most important features
to contend with in building so large
as the Auditorium is proper ventilation.
The H. Kelly company, which installed
the heating and ventilating system,
has made provision for complete
change of air every eight minutes. A
unique feature will be an arrangement
by which. during the cold months of
the year, warm, fresh air may be forced
through openings in the ceilings, and
the foul air exhausted through open
ings at the floor line Of the first floor
and different balconies; while during
the summer months the system can be
reversed. This is accomplished by two
large loo-inch fans, located on the
fourth floor, with the fresh air drawn
into the building at this point. There
are also two fans Of the same dimen.
sions in the basement, and the foul
air is drawn through large brick ducts
under the basement floor and down
through the partitions Of the main au-
ditorium, with registers properly To-
Gated. The heating plant, which is one
heats the entire building by indirect
ventilation.

part Of the p1asterer's work, as it is

The Interior Decorating.

In decided contrast to the interior
decorating of the ordinary theater, the
general scheme for color work in the
Auditorium is absolute simplicity, thus
harmonizing perfectly with the re-
mainder of sthe construction, which is
entirely devoid of anything fanciful or
frivolous. The walls are gently tinted
Nm sienna tones, very pleasing to the
eye and singularly appropriate to the
plain appearance of the whole interior.
To the H; 3; Cramer company Of 215
Sixth street S belongs the credit for
the artistic manner in which this pleas
ing appearance has been executed The
work was done thoroughly but in very
short time, Mr.. Cramer having as many
as thirty men at work at one time.
Though lacking in much ornamental
ton, none can help being impressed
with the fact that the lines upon which
Mr.. Cramer designed the. decorations
are the very best for hall of this ma
ture, where the art of music is so i'm
portant as to be the absolutely predom-
mating feature. Again, as conforming
