The work of moving the Auditorium
is progressing nicely and it is safe to
say that 1t will be in it's new position

few days. Fine progress was made
yesterday and the immense building
went back several feet.
Manager Bixler has until the 18th to
get the building off of the government
lot and it will be done before that time.
OF course there will be considerable
work to do on the building after it is
placed in position, but it will be ready
for the opening of the theatrical sea-

Very soon after the building is
moved from the government lot it is
expected that Uncle Sam will send a
surveyor here to make survey after
which the design for the building will
be made by the government architects
