GRAND NEW
PLAY HOUSE
Projected By The Cooperative
PhOtOplay Theatre
Company.
ON WEST SIDE MAIN STREET.
Only Down Town Vacant Side
In City Secured For The
Place.

The Cooperative Photoplay The
atre Company, 500, 900 corporation
has been formed and its business
manager, Mr.. H. Frederick, is
actively at work perfecting ar.
engagements for the erection of new
opera house and motion picture the
atre. The company has leased for a
long term of years the vacant lot on
the west side of Main Street, in the
heart of the business section of the
city. The lot fronts 20 by 100 feet
on Main and has Ninth Street
frontage in the rear of Cocks drug
store of so by 50 feet.
The plan is to erect the largest
theatre ever in the city for NmotiOn
pictures except when the house is
needed for high class attractions at
night, when the pictures will give
place to theatrical performances in
the evenings. Mr.. Bhn l.. Shrode,
manager of the Rex Theatre. and
Shelby l.. Peace are actively inter-
ested with Mr.. Frederick in the
project, which is already well under
way and several Thousand dollars
subscribed. The subscription
pledges will be deposited in the First
National Bank and just as soon as
enough stock has been sold to justi-
fly the erection of the building the
contract will be let. These preiimi.
naries will be attended to within the
n4xt sixty days Two of the most
D ointment merchants in the city, are
among the monied men behind the
proposition.
The house will be all that could be
desired. 1t will be two stories with
basement under the entire building.
AS heretofore said it will front 20
feet on Main. This will be divided
into three parts, 20-foot lobby and
% store rooms Oh either side, rum
ming back 80 feet. These have al
ready been spos en- for. The lobby
] leads to the auditorium 70 by 100
feet, with a 40-foot stage in the west
end. 1t has not yet been definitely
determined what use will be made
of the lot fronting on Ninth street,
but this detail will be worked out by
the architect. The building will be
of brick and. stone and the ceiling
will be 80 feet in the lobby and in
the auditorium it will be a great
dome still higher. Negotiations are
under way for making the second
story into lodge room for one of
the leading orders of the city.
The statement is made that the
Rex Theatre will be merged into this
concern when the new house is COM
pleted. Mr.. Shrode remaining as
manager.
1t is further proposed to take on
other towns in a string of shows CEN
tering in Hopkinsville.
The need of a large theatre has
long been felt in the city. An audito-
rum seating 1900 people with a
a stage large in proportion will bring
to the city attractions of much
higher class than have, been possible
heretofore.

CAPTURE BAIRD,
COCAINE FIEND
Police Believe With Him on Chain
Gang, Burglnrics VIII
Cease.

Chief of Police f. N Burns is con-
fident, now that Harry Baird, the CO.
caiue fiend burglar, has been recap
tured and returned to the chain gang
to serve out his ninety days sentence,
that there will be letup In the num-
ber Of burglares which have daily
been reported during the past week.
The chief is confident Baird was
responsible for most Of the crimes,
ana all that now remains Is to appre-
hcnd his associates.
Baird possesses all the characteris-
tics of the professional housebreaker
and has the additional cunning of the
drug fiend. He is considered a dan
gerous man at large, and when his
sentence here is completed, ii is the
intention of the police to send him
elsewhere.
Baird escaped from the chain gang
about a week ago Almost immedi-
atcly thereafter burglaries frequently
were reported to the police. Many of
these were Of the daylight variety, Of
which Baird made a speciality. There
fore, chief Burns and his subOrdnates
naturally suspected him. Although all
patrolmon Ofothe city were cautioned
to keep q close Watchout for Baird,
he was not fund until last Wednes-
day afternoon. Since then no burg
llries have been reported
