CLOSE TO THE HYPERION: A Brick Block and a Brick Barn to be Erected by Dr. Winchell and Mr. Hughes

"Dr. A. E. Winchell and George D. Hughes, proprietors of the Hyperion, are about to erect two new brick buildings close to the theater. One will be a business block, three stories high and 36 by 50 feet in dimensions, to contain a large basement office, two stores on the first floor, two offices in the second story and an office for a photographer on the top floor. The location of the block will be directly in front of the Hyperion, on the vacant plot where a fountain has heretofore stood, leaving the wide concrete walk for a passage-way to the Hyperion between this new structure and the Republican league building."

The Improvements Completed

"The Hyperion is now one of the finest theaters in the country. The new name was suggested by Mrs. A. E. Winchell. It will be opened on Thursday evening, when everyone will have a chance of seeing for themselves the many changes which have taken place. Manager Bunnell and Dr. Winchell are justly proud of their new (as it were) theater."

Dr. Winchell Takes Legal Possession and Receives the Keys

"The Carll Opera House has, to all appearances, at last passed into the hands and control of Dr. Winchell, who on Saturday took legal possession owing to failure on the part of Mr. Carll to meet his obligations... Manager Carll said last night that he had no ill feeling over the matter towards anyone... 'I have done much for the amusement-loving people of the city, and now owing to a mere technicality I am dispossessed. I'd rather not state what my plans are for the future. It wouldn't be policy for me to do so. Many well known and prominent citizens have come to me and expressed their sympathy over my present circumstances.'"
