TITE SrORXTXG OREGOXIATC, T1TT7RSDAY, MAY 25. 1911. 18 HILL TELLS OF ST. PAUL AUDITORIUM Structure Is Greatest in Seat ing Capacity of Probably Any in World Today. MAIN HALL IS ADJUSTABLE Tatrnt IKtIc rcnnij Transformo tlon I'roid Assembly Room for 10.000 to Tbtcr for 500. Clrcu Cn Be Held There. T. PAT-U MInti, War .-Spc!l ) "vrn-n I-oula W. Hill. president of ths C.reat Northern, recommended to m eop'.s of rortund the construction or n auditorium, ilmll.r la ererr respect to the one la ft. Paul, he did o ra raua. fce knew that the St. Paul strue ture 1 one of the best business seltenj Jn Amerlra. He alao knew that he aad 1 t a.cx-late had invested nearly JIOO. ..., In Portland and lt surrounding territory, therefore he wa anxloua to a.e the proper step taken which would .! to the advancement of the city of J'nrtland. Few American municipalities have raised a more remarkable monument to tr-elr public spirit than have the people c.f St. Paul. In building for the per jtual benefit of the public one of the I!n.t auditorium bultuings la the world. seating 00 more people than the New York Hippodrome, and square feet larger la base area and larger even than the Madison Square ;arden and seating t200 more people than does even that famoua etructure. The enormous etructure was con ceived In April. 1S. On December 11. ef the umi year the first contract waa awarded and operations on a conyenl ert lte already purchase were com jnenred. The April agitation for the ere t ion of a suitable building waa a spontaneous revival of the old time de jrnt for a "town hall- of aultable pro portions and consequence to fittingly entertain the people of one of the most Veautlful cities In the I'nlted States and th.lr guests. In May a commis sion of 11 waa choaen to build a build In, with PhiJ W. Heraos;. a business man. at the head. I lrc use Held There. The first opportunity the people of nty had of viewing the beautiful s'ructurs cama on the night of the open In? balL on the anniversary of the beginning of the auditorium movement, at which I00 couples occupied the Bias; at the same time, while 19.000 people looke-t on. Many months later, when Faint Paul entertained Secretary Ta?u 209 people aat down to a dinner In honor of the famoua guest, on the ataae alone. Through the great arches opening from the street to the stage, tour-horse tally-ho roaches loaded with people are frequently driven, and dur ing the early months of the present year a full-fledged rlrcua and Wild West ahow. complete In every detail, srltlj rings, aerial artists, troope of hor.es and all the usual clrcue featurea gave performance after performance on the huge stage, ana was no ii.rn jiti In the least deree for either spice or ieiht overhead. On several occaatons j.nt people have been aeated In the building at the same timo. for the en joyment of various spectacles. A bat talion of Infantry can maneuver on the tags with room to spare. The St. Taul Auditorium la an ob long structure Ml feet In width and Jtfl feet In length, having an averags height of "1 f-t. It Is designed In the modern Italian rennalssancs style. The r.-.lt are extremely simple and dig nified and a very vtraalng effect haa reen secured by the use of dark golden brown brli-k. with trimmings of terra cocta In the same color. All Kissing throughout the bulldlnc Is of green and opil tinted glass and all exposed wood work waa treated wtth a dark mahog any stain. On each aide of the bulldlnc are beautiful arcades, facilitating entry and exit, each 10 feet long. 1J feet wide and IS feet high, with a barrel arch broken by pilasters and arch ribs every IS feet. K-irh Is Illuminated by Incandescent lights from 1 especial ly graceful chandeliers. The remarkable flexibility of the structure, which was secured by methods which wore used In St. Paul for the rst time and have been patented. m-ikes It possible to transform the huge l.all with Its enormous stage, a public feathering place seating 10.000. Into a ciir theater seating J.;00 people In fif teen minutes. The theater occupied ap proximately one-third of the length of the building. . Along the side walls are box or which with the balcony seats abote them are cntructed on hup steel frames sklll a!ly concealed. These great frames, pivoted on the ends reaching to the rear of the theater, swing Inward at will and .the effect la sa If great sections of the lde walla had suddenly been moved en tire, carrying with them boxes and bal cony seats. Aa the hinged bcx-s-ctlons swing Inward, the proscenium arch drops downward from concealed recesses In the crlllnc. a beautiful velvet curtain falls and the building Is a beautifully ap pointed theater, with all of the great stags except the footlights hidden from view. Scvnery la shifted Into place and in a few seconds the theater Is ready for suae. From the footlights to the farthest row of theater seels Is a distance of 10 est. AcohpUc Properties) Excellent. The acoustic properties of the build ing ara wonderful. An experiment fre quently tried provee that though the building la a city block In length Inside, a person starting at the farthest row of gallery seats In the extreme end of the building and high above the foot lights, can distinctly hear words spoken In an ordinary tons of voice at the archea at the distant end of the great tags. A single speaker oan make him elf distinctly heard to 10.004 people, while great singers have enthusiastically praised tha structure for Its exceptional xropertlea Fine, surpassingly fine! said Caroso. Alfred Herts, conductor of the Conreld Overs Company, said: "So fine a build ing astonishes me. It la the beat for grand opera, aside from the regular theaters, that I have ever seen." The entire structure la absolutely fire proof. It la built entirely of steel, brick and concrete and thsre Is nothing which conld burn except the little woodwork and whatever scenery te building happena to contain. The main floor la of con crete, built to sustain 1004 pounds to the sxruare foot. The balconies are of solid concrete. There Is nothing la the en tire etructure whlcxt does not bespeak tha most solid careful and substantial construction. Compared with other great structurea the main dimensions are as follows: St. Paul Auditorium 191x11 feet. Seats 10.000. New York Hippodrome 100xS feet. Seats 4.0V4. Madison Square Garden llfxlM feet. wests T.SoO. The entrances to the building, a dosen in number, open upon a wide lobby, from which a dozen doors lead to a beautiful foyer shut off from the theater by swinging dtors. Thorough business method dominated everr step In the construction of the building. The work of building waa car- rled on by a commission, or committee. Every contract and expenditure was sub jected to rigid Investigation and scru tiny. The result wss ths construction of a building In which the people have dollar for dollar, and value for Invest ment even to the hair's breadth. The total cost was 0.&00. The structure Is paid for and Is st present under the charge of a city board, composed of practical business men. and a manager. It Is Interesting to note thst the Hlr prdrome In New Tork cost I4.0-M.0O0. The Chicago auditorium cost IJ.I00.0o0. The Ndison Square Garden cost j.n.)fl.o.)o. The new structure Is notable for Its I advanced design and Interior arrange ment and for the exceptional value re ceived by the people for the money they gave. Its adequacy and satlsfactotiness for the handling of the usual gatherings large and small, which are he:d In such a city as St. Paul. In which annually convene manv national conventions. Is remarkable. The Sunday afternoon pop ular orchestra concerts are held at the auditorium. The greateat gatherings of the year are held In the same building. It accommodates the one as well aa the other, giving each especially !c'lrable facilities. ROAD WORK TO- BEGIN IDAHO -VORTITFTtX WILL KI TE VD TO FAYETTE LAKES.

Official announcement of this has just been msde by K. IL lewey. president of the Idsho Northern Railway Company. A 100-mlle exten sion to the Idsho Northern Railroad will be built within the next two years from the present terminal at mmett through the rich Long Valley to the Payette Lakes, known as - the most besutlful health resort In the western section of the Oera state.

It lien In the heart of Boise County. Horseshoe Bend Is located at the most southerly part of the valley on the sweeping bend of ths Payette River. It Is at present platted Into a townslte and Is not only the key to a thriving section, but has abundance of power.

It Is owned by the Weyer haeusers. of which the Payette Lumber Company of this city Is. a subsldlsry. This company holds a 10-year lease from the state on, the timber.
