city's public utilities, visited the exhibit
and was very much astonlshed TO find
such collection Of pictures so far west
so uniformly good and with so little pad
ding.
The extremely low price Of admission
encourages visitors TO come more than
once and there have been many season
tickets sold at the nominal price OF four
admissions for 30 cents.
The serving OF tea on the afternoon Of
washington's birthday was so popular
that the chairman OF the courtesies COM
mittee. Mrs. Milton Barlow. has concluded
with the help Of her committee TO con-
tinue the pleasant innovation every after
noon this week.
On Saturday afternoon two gentlemen
from New York. prominent officers OF the
Metropolitan Museum Of Art. both Of

the investors who have erected the build
lngs. as well as from that OF the man

Big Sum Required
to Fix Auditorium

Architect John Latenser declares that
the city would have to expend at least
10000 on the Auditorium IL II was pur-
chased, before It could be put In pre-
sentable condition" Other expenditures,
he said. would have TO be made. but the
city would feel that Il was too poor to
make them" These views were expressed
at meeting Of the committee OF the
whole.
Mr.. Latenser said that the building had
never been completed. although $4,000
had been paid for building II. The stone
columns were never placed in front. nor
the cement steps. The stairway leading
to the gallery. he said. is dangerous. One
room In the basement had not been
fioored. This latter would cost $1,000. To
erect the columns and complete the steps
and walks would take 10000.
Neither had the ceiling been finished.
declared the architect. The plumbing I'M
der municipal ownership could not be
used, said the architect further The heat
ing plant Is In excellent condition, but to
repair the items he mentioned and COM
plete the building. including an unfinished
roof. would cost a total OF $4,000.
There was also needed. concluded Mr..
Lstenser, new chairs in the gallery and
other things which the city would no
doubt feel would be too expensive to pro-
cure.

CREIGHTON WILL PLAY
BASE BALL THIS SPRING

The outlook for base ball at Creighton
university this spring Is very poor. Al a
meeting of the members Of last years
team with Father Devlln, manager OF
athletics, Il was decided not to put a
team into the field. The reason for this
action was the poor support given last
years team. lack Of good varsity ma
tsrisl and a shortage In the athletic fund
caused by foot ball
The principal reason Is the lack Of sup
port by the students. Last year Creighton
met Morningside. Des Moines college and
Tabor on Creighton field and failed to
make expenses on a single game. The
same result Is feared this year. Ctaigh-
ton lacks varsity material because Of the
early date on which the professional de-
partments of the university are dismissed.
Again. the best players in these depart
ments have played professional bali and
the management refuses &c let them play
The foot bail season has been failure
from a financial standpoint. and there
was a deficit In spite OF the student ticket
ruling.
An intsrciasx base ball league will be
organized and the championship Of the
college will be decided by series of
games.
