To BUILD
THEATRE
Work of Wrecking the Old
Wisconsin House Com
mences at Once.
THEATRE WILL BE MODERN
This Improvement Will
Fill a City Need Long
Desired.
THEATRE WILL Be MODERN

Inc Wisconsin, house, just puf-
chased Dy Al Ringing that a theatre
may be located on the site, has been
sold to George Isenberg and the work
of clearing away the structure Will be-
gin at once. AS soon as possible exca-
waiting will begin and the work of
completing the theatre will be hurried.
A Fire Proof Structure
The theatre will be as near fire
proof as possible and will occupy a
space about 78 by 1872 feet. Tue To-
cation is on Fourth avenue across the
street to the north from the courthouse
park. There will be two store rooms
In front and the structure will be three
stories high. There will be offices, a
number Of exits, and all The adjuncts
for first class playhouse. The stage
will be something like 80 feet wide,
80 feet high ami 36 feet deep. The
stage dome will be high and the cur
tains modern in make and operation.
All the latest and best methods will be
theatre. The seating capacity will be
about 1900. The plans have been
fairly we'll worked out and will be
drawn by an architect without de-
lay.
Delay in Getting Abstract,
Mr.. Ring ling purchased the property
from the heirs of George HI. Campbell
of Kilbourn. Some time ago when
q transfer was made the deed was lost
and this caused no end of delay and
anxiety. After much work the title to
the land was cleared. 1t has been
known for some time that the deal
was being made but it was thought
best not to make it public until
closed.
Removes old Landmark
The tearing away of the Wise 0nsin
house will remove one of the oldest
landmarks in the city. The brick
portion was built in the early ffties
and was the first structure of this
material to be used in the city. For
number of years it was known as the
"Little Dutch Tavern" Afterwards
it was purchased by Herman Albrecht
and since that time many landlords
have welcomed guests there.

JUDGE /. IS DESIGNATED,

Judge B. I. Gordon, Judge of the
Twenty. ninth judicial circuit, OF Nelson

ceedings instituted by the city OF Alex
andria to obtain part OF Alexandria
and fairfax counties. The governor
has also fixed upon May $ next as the
date for the beginning OF the hearing
OF The proceedings.
An order designating Judge Gordon
was entered BY tie governor on March

County: courthouse and entered April

OF Judge Gordon until late yesterday

McCandish, OF Fairfax county.
Previous to hearing the case the
Circuit court of Alexandria county
will no doubt be called upon to pass
upon several preliminary technicah
questions but the attorneys for the
city of Alexandria will probably find it
| necessary to be upon the lookout at
all times as they can expect but scant
courtesy from the officials of the
Clerks Office of Alexandria county.
Yesterday afternoon the clerk of AL
exandria county was in the city and,
in conversation with another one of
the attorneys representing the city,
was spoken to regarding the failure
to notify the attorneys for the city Of
previous communication of the Gov
ernors but he made not even u. ref
erence to the fact that the Governor
had designated judge nor the time
set for the hearing.
The previous communication refer
red to was one from the Governor,
dated March 18th, and sent to the
Clerk of the Circuit court of Alex
andria county. In this letter the Gov
ernor stated that he would send a
Judge who would hear the case during
the week beginning April LIST, but if
time would not suit all parties, he
requested that the clark would write
him!what time WOULD be most conveh-
lent in = order that he could designate
a Judge not engaged at that time. To
this letter the clerk replied that. he
had communicated with Mr.. Mackey,
Commonwealth attorney for Alex
andria county, and the time mention
en- in the letter would not be conVen-
lent to him and also that he had talk
ed with Mr.. Barbour, one of the at
torneys representing Fairfax county
and he stated that May would suit
him better than any other time. M
communication was had with the at
torneys representing the city and it
was through mere accident that. one
discovered the existence of the
Governors letter about a week later;

One Good Thing, at Least, That He
May Place to the Credit of
the Auto.

The farmer may not venerate the
automobile. but he must admit that.
although the automobile teaches 9th
ers extravaganza. It has taught MN
very valuable lesson in economy
Everybody knows how plant lice. or
aphis, overrun and destroy plants ana
how the sole protection against plant
lice has heretofore been patent pow
ders more or less costly.
But of late years farmers have no
ticed that, while all the plants in field
or garden We're covered with aphis,
all the roadside growths, white with
dust from flying automobiles, had not
u single aphis on them.
Hence an experiment. Turnips, peas
and cabbages We're coated with ordi-
nary dust instead of costly powder.
Result disappearance of all insect par

The automobile in a word. has
taught the farmer that dust, which
costs nothing. will protect his plants
from plant lice and other pests Just as
completely as the most expensive
powder can.
