Building Designed to Seat
5000 PeOpIe-Totai Cost
Will Be $425, 900.

From a builders and architects
viewpoint, the Auditorium is two
thirds completed. OF 1900 tons of steel
work, 1000 tons is in place, and about
twO-thirds of the brick work has been
done.
The heavy work. which necessarily
requires time and prevents large forces
of workmen from laboring at the same
time, was completed two weeks ago.
What remains to be done can be done
almost as fast as we choose to. push
it. 1t is not necessary to introduce
night and day work. and if the work
goes on as it has in the last few weeks,
we can turn the big building over to
the city, completed, by May l, 1908.
1.-The main hall of the Auditorium
will seat exactly 1880 people. This
means that it will be one of the larg
est and finest in the country. 1t will
be flexible as tC the arrangement of
seats and boxes. At a convention as
large as the Democratic a -Ostrum will
be stationed on the west side of the
big hall for the speaker and his at
tendants. 1t will be surrounded by
seats I'm a circular arrangement so as
to bring the speaker into the unbToken
view of at least 1880 persons.
zone of The best features of the
Auditorium is its acoustic properties.
A speaker on the rOstrum will be able
to throw his voice to the extreme cor
ners of the hall in the ordinary tone
of a speakers voice, as readily as to
those near him. In this respect, the
hall will be the finest in the United
States"

being heard at that moment, the topic
was discontinued.
The Earl of Arlington arose the fol-
lowing morning with the full determin-
atom to bring the intensely unpleasant
situation to a close before the lapse of
On, L
fast room the curt nod and brief word
of greeting which he received from his
host, whose wounds had festered over
night, convinced him that this would
not prove difficult.
Breakfast passing without undue hi
larity, Arlington and his father-in-law
elect lighted cigars and strolled out
upon the lawn.
AS they stepped clear of the veranda
Arlington happened to catch sight of
Eleanor at an open window above.
With a gesture of impotence he threw
aside his newly lighted cigar, one of a
brand on which his host particularly
prided himself.
II saw. Eleanor he called, ''just
fetch me down my pipe and tobacco
pouch when you come, will you? You'll
find them on the table in the library"
Mr.. Drayton stif1ed with difficulty a
sudden snort of rage.
Don't you like that cigar. Nor
daunt?" he asked IN a voice that was a
trifie thick.
''Why-er-I-er-Yes yes, very
much" replied Arlington in the tone
of one determined to be polite no mat
ter what the cost to his veracity. But
I'm rather used to a pipe, you know"
The blood rushed to Mr.. Drayton's
face, but he stifled his anger with an
effort. He led the younger man little
further from the house to where a
slight eminence afforded an extended
view of the surrounding landscape.
AS he gazed out across the smiling
prospect the vexation faded from the
face of the proprietor, and with an ex-
preston of complacent pride he turned
to his companion.
Just cast your eye over that. Nor
daunt," he exclaimed. Did you ever
see anything handsomer?"
The chin of the Englishman was
slightly elevated as, with a deliberate
and critical calmness that came near
to wrecking the nervous system of his
host. he slowly surveyed the panorama
before him.

Work of Swinging Steel Roof
TruSSeS Into Place Will
Begin Today.

The Denver Auditorium will be ready
by June l for the national Democratic
convention.
To look now at the Auditorium no
one would believe this statement. At
present il has a most unfinished look.
Ia fact while many months work has
been done on il. it seems almost a
physical impossibility that it will be
ready for the big show on July Z next.
But 1t will. Denver has promised 1t,
and Denver usually carries out its
promises.
In this case, it will not be hard to
do So The building. while looking as
though it had just been started, in the
photographs, in reality is more than
three-quarters finished Four months
more of work should complete the
building.
Ground was broken for the fOunda-
ton of the Auditorium on Jan. l last.
The cornerstone was laid Sept, 49,,
1907. Henry Schlueter, the contractor,
lest his contract Oct. %, because the
Auditorium committee thought he could
not finish the building on time, and
the work was taken up by Ralph w.
Smith, vice president of the National
Surety company, who is acting for his
company and the Empire State Trust
company of New York, and is now in
personal charge of the work.
Union labor men of Denver say that
the building of the Auditorium is be-
ing and has been conducted with a
strict observance of union rules, and
there is said TO be no danger of a strike

began Algy.
"Oh, rot, Algy, you're a brick
Let's go up and try and straighten out
this internal tangle-what?"
They FASTENED to the house where,
at the threshold, they were met by the
outraged parent.
Lord Arlington" he began in a sort
of pompOus rage, let me tell you
right now, sir, that this miserable en-
gagement with my daughter is all
Off"
There was a swift rustic behind him
and a weeping lady with a disheveled
head of golden hair swept quickly past
him and was caught in the strong arms
of her betTOthed.
'Mordaunt." she sobbed. Il do love
you. dear. 1 have loved you all of the
time, but 1 only found it out last
night"
Eleanor" cried the irate father,
have you no pride or mOdesty? Go to
your room instantly"
He made a gesture as if to draw her
back, but Arlington reached out re-
straining arm,
4 say-hold on a minute, will you?
It's al! a miserable fistake-''
"rIl cut her Off-she'n not have Q
penny, siri"
'Glad of it. Well get married any
way-Won't we. Eleanor"
Father" interrupted AlgernOn, If
you will step into the library for
moment I will tell you something
which will explain the whole affair."
Eyes, Mr.. Drayton-it's really all
right. We know. You go with Algy-
there's a good fellow-what?" cried Alb
bington beseechingly.
Dazed and bewildered, Mr.. DraytOn
allowed himself to be led away, and
soon to the ears of the two nesting
closely on the window seat, came a
sudden burst of genuine laughter A
moment later he emerged and there
was a suspicion of moisture in his eyes,
such as his daughter had never seen
before. He walked straight to Eleanor,
kissed her on the forehead and held
out his hand to Arlington.
"'Alls well that ends Well" my chill
dren," he said. But it was bit rough
on the old man, now wasn't it?'
1T was jolly rough on all of US" re-
piled Arlington, with deep feeling.

A WOMAN'S MARBLE.
By Roma.

A surprising incident and one COM
mendable enough, to deserve mention,
was an article appearing in one OF
our local dailies, the past week, CIV
ing recognition to woman. The
writer, (whosoever he may beg in his
article claims that Salt Lake posses
ses the brightest women in the world,
etc. He also advocates, that it is in
their power to remedy much OF The
existing evil, and uplift the city.
Feminine, readers can we'll gaze
in CONSERVATION, at an item, relative
to their ability, being recognized.
Are these cratic lords of the so ,ial
and commercial sphere just awaken
ing to the possibilities that lie with
in a woman's power? Just awaken
ing to the fact, that thorough vest
ern woman, is a boon, to society, in
whose hands lies the making or break
ing Of nation?
If the average man accorded wo-
man the consideration and respect
she is entitled to, socially and COM
mercially, we would today, possess
more hourishing community and our
city would be uplifted For acting
co-operatively-with her executive
ability, much of the evil existing in
primary form, which he may be en-
tirely ignorant of, would be obliter-
ated thro her efforts. So-Give the
woman a chance.
A case brought to the notice of the
feminine court of frightened females
was the obliteration of the confirmed
nuisance, "The town chaser" Literal

MINNESOTA SOIL GOOD SECURITY.

Henry Rothschild, st. Paul, spec
ial loan agent, Northwestern Mutual
Life Insurance company, has an
article in the Commercial West
showing the remarkable growth Of
the mortgage loan business of that
company in Minnesota during the
past seven years. The figures show
that in 1900 the company loaned in
the state little over one-half mil
lion dollars; 1901 over a million dol
lars: each year since over two million
dollars per annum until the com
pany's outstanding loans in the state
exceed twelve million dollars, of
which over ten million dollars COM
prise farm loans, the most Of which
was placed at per cent. per annum
with liberal ON or before" privi-
leges.
The writer further says: Study
of the figures also shows that while
Minnesota farmers have been Dor
rowing Of this company from one
and half to two and a half million
dollars a year they have been repay
ing from half million to million
and half dollars year. The COM
pany continues making farm loans
in sums of $4,000 or over at five per
cent, the great volume of the bust
ness being done in the rich agricul-
tural districts of southern, central
and western Minnesota. Local bank
ers who have assisted borrowers in
drawing this money in the state
have thereby materially aided bust
ness conditions and added millions
to the bank deposits of the state"
The Gold Stabeck State Bank is
the local correspondent of this COM
pany and has placed, with allied
banks, over one-half million dollars
in loans with the company and is
prepared at all times to take appli-
cations for farm loans.
