HANDSOME AND SUBSTANTIAL
AUDITORIUM.

N y-t
Fairest of all the city's possessions
is the beautiful new auditorium, sit
uated at the corner of Broadway and
Sixth street, which is now rapidly APP
preaching completion. Step by step,
the architect, A. Var Horn, and the
contractor, II. G. Milstad, both Of this
city, and the noted firm Of decorators,
the Van Vie Co. Of Minneapolis,
have seen their vision take shape,
and the city's dream of a hand
some and creditable playhouse is
about to come true.
The city commission has executed
to the letter it's part of the contract
and to this regime will be given the
credit OF bringing to fruition the gen.
erous plans of officials heretofore con.
nected with the city government.
The plan of the building is attract
i've, every detail being in conform
ity with the latest devices for safety
and regard for the comfort and pleas
ure of it's patrons. The scheme is
comprehensive, there being a seating
capacity of over 100 people, and the
color note is alluring. The walls
are tinted in soft shades of French
gray and a pinkish' lavender, deepen
ing into a rich old rose, while the
ornate portions of the house are done
in stucco, in ivory and gold. The
bOxes-eight in number-are well pro.
portioned and will be hung with drap.
cries to match the heavy old rose
plush or velour curtains at either side
of the p%rOscenium arch.
The scenery will be installed during
the coming week and the chairs are
expected to arrive within a fortnight.
Gumwood is used for the interior
woodwork and makes a handsome fin.
ish. Above the solid wood balus-
trade separating the body of the
house from the foyer will be a plate
glass partition, and the big doors G.
viding the outer from the inner foyer
are of exceedingly graceful design,
plate glass being again used in lat.
tice work above each of the three.
The lighting is very soft and the
electroliers employed simple and rich
in appearance. D
The proportions of lower house and
balconies are beautifully balanced,
and it is a point of pride with Mr..
Van Horn, Mr.. Milstad and Me. LIE.
vine, the latter's able assistant, that
there is little choice as to seats. AS
a matter of fact, there is something
to the claim that the first balcony
seats are superior as to view, both
of the stage and audience, of any
in the house. ~
The heating plant, under the direc,
ton of Grambs & Peet, seems to be
satisfactory from every point of view,
and a special yentilating system for
bringing in the pure air and forcing
out the vitiated atmosphere, which
should be a source of very especial
pride.
Altogether the auditorium promises
to be a distinct credit to the city
and it is now up to the people Of Bis.
marck to give to it and it's mainten.
ance their most cordial and generous
support. Only by so doing can it be
made a source of revenue, as well as
Of pride.

FINE PROGRAM ARRANGED
FOR A GRAND AUDITORIUM
Superb Program.

IWHG ...HE H.E
1t is now practically an assured
fact that Alice Nielsen, theg lorious
song artist, will be the attraction for
the formal opening of the city's beau
.tiful new auditorium, early in Janu-
airy. A magnificent number has been
promised for the event, as the initial
one Of a season of artists recitals, to
be given under the auspices of what
will be known as the Auditorium COM
mittee.
This committee consists of r. c..
Battey, chairman of the auditorium
entertainment committee of the city
commission; +. G. Conklin, represent
ing the Commercial club; J. l.. Bell,
treasurer, and Mrs. Walter f. Cush.
ing, artist director, and under their
joint management Bismarck music
and drama lovers will be presented
with a series OF four recitals quite the
eual OF any to be given in the Twin
Citiess, during the present season.
While the contracts are not as yet
entirely closed, owing to the hitherto
uncertain date of opening, present
plans include the presentation. Col.
Oratura soprano, Cornelius Van Vliet,
the eminent Dutch cellist, Laura
Graves, a mizzo soprano of marvellous
range and beauty of voice, whose re,
sidence has until the past year been
in London, England, and who will al.
SO include a children's recital in her
engagement; Mrs. Grant Call, OF this
city, highly trained under such mas,
ters of the piano as Rudolf Granz and
Harold Bauer. of Berlin; Harriet
Ware, the gifted composer. with a
chorus CT wOmen's voices in Miss
Wares melodis contata, "Sir Oluf,"

recital by an eminent exponent of ex.
preston has been chosen, and that

that the people of Bismarck will ex-
press their preference for the very

Perhaps the most encouraging fea.

committee is that OF the cordial and

The eyes of the world are upon

ed, but one province of Ireland,
Ulster is bitterly opposed to home
rule, and is prepared to offer troops
and are prepared today to put $4,000
men in the field. Why? All this is
very prepleXing to the average Ameri-
can mind. Is there no solution apart
from war? The question SINNERS
down to a religious one, recalling the
problems of the reformation. These
Ulster men are Covenanters.
Ireland is a fascinating country.
The beauty Of its scenery, the traits
of it's people, it's industries, it's great
cities, it's history are all deserving OF
study and sympathetic consideration.

AMERICA AND THE "pAtAcE" CAR:
It is something Of a joke that in
democratic America we had the first
palace" car.
And up to the present time we have
the most palatial cars in the world.
Our American love of luxury seems
to know no limits, and those railroads
which besti,cater to this, have, ma
turally the most fastidious patron
age. For example, the Broadway
Limited Of the Pennsylvania lines, ty-
pifes the standard of American
ideals and progress in railroading.
1t is not easy to define that service
in a short space. If you are a bust
