CSibWiS v-rt-l row trurjl Huntine Is superintendent of construction for the contractors, Messrs. Kerr, Murray Manufacturing Co., of Ft Wayne, Ind., and Mr. T. A. Klutz, ar chitect, of thia city, baa local charge of the work in tho interest of the owners, with Mr. J. H. Haggerty, superintend ent of the Light and Power Company, in general supervision. The plant, taken as a whole, la amply adequate in "a producing capacity to supply tlx cl y with a good quality of gas for many years to come, having three furnace benches of live retorts each, making fifteen retorts in all. Only ten of these retorts will at first bo used, developing a delivery of 0,000 feet of illuminating gaa per day. The retort and furnace room is .'So feet In size, the condenser and scrubbing room 13 feet by 85 feet, and tho purify ing room 24 feet by 35 feet, accommo dating four purifiers 6x8 each, w ith I joint purifying rapacity of 100,000 feet per diem. Next to tho purifying room Is tho office and meter room, 12x35 in dimen sions and containing the general offices, the meter and street main governor. This room is on the aonth end of the building. The gas holder and water tank an- jacent to the building on the west side are almost completed and are built of rlvetted boiler plate, and when full the bolder will be forty feet height and sixty-three feet In diameter. uic« The company propose to pueh the work forward to completion as rapidly as possible, having employed abont twenty-five hands at present on the work of construction.

This troupe played at the Open House last evening to a good andienoe and gave general satisfaction. Geo. R. Webster, ax “Alexia Ban! lie,” a Greek adventurer, was exceptionally good In hie part J. M.

O'Neal), Haney, Murphy, Barrett, Banard, Bur gess and Olbler all evinced a thorough familiarity with the plot and spirit of the play. •! Miss Camille Cleveland, as “Emile Le Brun," captured the hearts of the audi ence, both the malo and female contin gency, and in her Interpretation of the character was piquant and lo/ahle. Her rendition of the ballad “Down on tho Farm" brought forth repeated encores. Misses Douglass end Stuckmoycr were both admired, particularly the latter in her inimitable dancing specialties.

The unusually flue audience which filled DeGive’s opera house last evening was mystified. As a prestidigknteur Herrmann is a wonderful ami startling success. His entertainment is, as tlie bill of tlie play declares, one of mirth, magic and mystery. The first part, entltlod thirty minutes with Herrmaun, l.v a variety of very clever tricks. After a minute's intermission an illu sion called the vanishing lady is given, in which the tr'p door Is used to mystify the audience. In part first, Madame Herrmann and Abdul Kalin perform some very neat tricks under the head of “the new black art” Then comes probably the most mysti lying feature of the programme, the lie lease of Strobeika. Strobeika, as produced by Herrmann, le baaed upon a Russian romance, one of the features of watch Is the escape from piieon of a young officer of the guard, Ivan Ivanhoff, through tlie in genuity of his fiance, Strobeika, who in some manner obtained admission to bis cell, loosened hie shackles and chains, and herself assumed them, keeping np the delusion until Iran was safely away. In Professor Uerrman's Illusion the sub-, stitution of Strobeika for the menscled prisoner chained to the the the plank by the committee from the audience is much more difficult than the original Strobeika’e brave and ingenious trick. A man ie locked securely to a board by a committee from the audience, and the board,hong up inside of an iron framework. The committee remains on the stage and command* full view of all sides. The curtains are drawn. They hide the flgaro bat do not reach the floor by two feet, permitting the audience to see under the framework. Ten seconds elapse. The curtains are drawn, and a lady is discovered locked to the board In place of the man. With a number of amueing tricks by Herman the excellent performance is closed —Atlanta Journal.
