A BABY IS WANTED

Pilgrim Brothers Want One to Place in New Baby Incubator. TO BE NOVEL ATTRACTION

The opening of the new Murray theater, Tenth and Main streets, has been postponed until Monday evening, October 11, by Manager O. G. Murray. The failure of the contractors to complete the lobby and box office of the theater is responsible for the week's delay. Mr. Murray had hoped to open the theater in time for the Fall Festival

with a strong vaudeville show, characteristic of the attractions to be giv-1 en at this theater. Although he might

have done so, even though the box office and lobby were not completed, he felt that it wouid be wiser to wait for one week when a grand opening might be jnade with everything in readiness. Gets Good Attractions. The attractions to be booked at the theater are the best on the MurraySun circuit, of approximately twelve houses. Mr. Murray plans to increase the attractions to four acts each show. Instead of three, and give illustrated songs and motion pictures in addition. Owing to the increased cost in bringing the better talent to the city, the prices of the new theater will be slightly advanced. The theater will be the most beautiful on the Murray-Sun circuit. The Interior decorations will be very attractive but more especially those of the lobby and entrance. The remainder of the building will not be ready for occupation by tenants for three or four weeks yet.

Wanted A baby.

It doesn not make any particular

difference just what kind of a baby ia procured, just so it is small enough, as well as young enough, to perform the experiment successfully. Of course a baby of good disposition is desired.

The baby is wanted by Pilgrim Bros hardware company, who have on dis

play at their store during the Fall Festival, a baby incubator. The incubator is much like the regular chicken incubator and will no doubt attract a large number of visitors to the store. The tray for holding the baby is equipped with a soft, downy pillow. Th baby, if one is secured, will be on display, it being possible to see it through a glass window. A recent traveller in that land of dikes and windmills has been at pains

to make notes of the names bestowed

by the Dutch merchants upon their

country houses. Here are a few ex

amples translated: 'Our Content

ment." "Joy and Peace," "Leisure

and happiness," "My Desire is Satisfied, "Friends and Quiet," "My Wife

and I," "Not So Ban." To say the least, any one of these would seem to indicate more of the genuine senti

ment of the house-holder than can pdssibly be expressed by the "Belle Vues" and "Cedars" of Suburbia.

Amusements

Prof. Cras. Richet, of Paris, has devised a means for purifying the air in rooms. His apparatus is an air filter, which mechanically sterilizes air. Very fine drops of glycerine are scattered along the walls of a cylinder containing a suction fan. Each particle of air drawn in by the fan is freighted with glycerine and hence tends to drop, thereby carrying with it the germs, dust and microbes with which it may be laden.

"A Woman of Mystery." The metropolitan cities of the United States get performances in their theaters that the smaller cities cannot support on account of the enormous expense, such as great productions with 200 people on the stage, which possibly is the only reason that the production is great. Richard Mansfield when starring in "Cyrano de Ber-

gerac" of "Henry V." could not afford to play the smaller cities but last seaBon in "Beaucaire" it was possible for him to do so because he merely carried a limited nuuiber of fine artists in his support, still this play was just as attractive in metropolitan cities as one of his great-number-of-people productions. Other artists play large cities that can afford to play smaller cities also, for instance, Mgrs. Walters and Way make it possible for Miss Courtenay Morgan to play them because "A Woman of Mystery" can be played by a moderately small comnan V. Tt. Is honed that the citizens of

unable to thoroughly complete the new building in order for the management to present the opening bill on October 4th next Monday, as announced. The opening, therefore, will be postponed until October 11th, when an excellent bill of vaudeville will be the offering. With the completion of the new play-house, Richmond will be the

possessor of one or the finest ana most complete theaters in Indiana and one which theatergoers may well be proud of as a home of real, live vaudeville. Remember the opening October 11th when everything will be in readiness for a bill of merit.
