Albaugh. Lillian Russell appeared in

Bought by Belaseo.
The entry of David Belasco into the To-
cal amusement field was an event of great
Importance to the theatergoers of this
city. David Belasco, with the Shubert
brothers. purchased the Lafayette Square
Opera House, three years ago, remaining 1t
the Belasco\ Theater.
Inc local dQIIlnlSlFdtlOn VI Tie beidSCO
The alter was placed under the manage
ment of L. Stoddard Taylor, whose one
goal and earnest endeavor has been to
realize the artistic ideal set by Mr..
Belasco and the Messrs. Shubert, and to
make their playhouse not only successful
from the box Office viewpoint, but a most
beautiful and comfortable temple of
amusement as we'll.
During the summer of 1906 the Beasco
Theater was entirely renovated and con-
siderably altered. The lower floor was re-
laid at a more comfortable pitch; mez-
canine balcony was arranged; every seat
in the house was replaced with artistic
and luxurious chairs. and the theater from
floor to ceiling redecorated, the result be-
ing that it is now, without doubt, the
most beautiful and up-to-date playhouse
in Washington.
Opening of New Theater.
The night of Monday. October %, 1905,
the present management inaugurated
it's tenancy of the theater with the first
presentation in Washington of David Be-

have been but little used by baseball
players and are far from being in
good condition, but they are being i'm
proved as rapidly as circumstances
will permit.
Sundays game was an interesting
one, despite the difficulties which at
tended it, and those in attendance were
pleased with the entertainment which
it afforded. Both teams we're in good
condition and the playing was very
good considering the weather and the
unevenness of the field where the dia-
mond has been laid out. The score
was 10 to s in favor Of the home Or
ganization. A return game will be
played at Florence next Sunday after
noon. A. Dennison is manager of the

After disposing of an excellent
course dinner, the various Odd Fel-

At the conclusion of the program
an informal dance was held, bclng
participated in by the three local
branches of the L. O. o. F. The Re-

1t is expected that the trip will cover about
four weeks. All expenses will be paid, and the
