Thia will bo the lsla theater, on the Bid of Prairie avenue, between Mala and Fannin. the past week the workmen have been engaged in cumpletlmr the atvangements for the opening of this theater at the time stated above. The Isis Is tu be a combination of motion picture show and high clasa musical entertainment. In addition to the picture shown there will be singing by the boat talent to be procured, thia singing to be accompanied hy mualo from a splendid pipe organ and a five-piece orchestra.

Th motion picture will alao sbown simultaneously with Interpretative music from the organ and orchestra. Th character of entertainment will be In line with that lurnlshed in ail the theater operated by Die Herman Fichtenberg nterpriBes. the headquarter for which are In New Orleans. Before giving a description of the new theater, with it modern and beautiful features, it Is welt to explain how it gets Its name. Th name was given by Herman Fichtenberg himself, lsls was the name of one of vne most worshiped of all the Egyptian deities.

She was the goddess, among other things, of enchantments, and It Is from this significance that the name Is given the theater. So Eopular and wide was the sway of thrs Igyptlan goddea that the worship of her extended even to the Grecian and Roman "people hundreds of years after her pagan power had been almost forgotten In Egypt. I One of the chief symbols nf Isis was the flaming torch, which she held aloft In her hand. The management of the theater has taken "advantage of this fact and erected an electrical sign which will present a moving flame from a torch. This sign, is placed in front of the theater over th sidewalk.

Kxpens has not been spared to make the lsls a beautiful theater. From the main entrance at the front to the pipe organ at the rear of the stae the ornamental finishings are done In beautiful style. They are substantial, too, and have a their baaia and background a structure In concrete and cement which makes the building fireproof. The color scheme on the Interior of the main auditorium is in green and gold, and the delicate blendlngs of these colors, together with the artistic paintings on the walls and panels, form a harmonious picture very attractive to the eye. Around the walls of the theater are fashioned likenesses of the features of the goddess lsls.

They Impart to the theater an air of ancient mythology and a spirit of paganism of real artistic value ana which! much in contrast with the modern scene one leaves upon entering the building from the busy street outside. The construction of the Isis theater has been under the personal supervision of W. H. Gueringer of New Orleans, general manager for the Fichtenberg enterprises. Several novel Ideas and modern" methods have been employed In the arrangements.

One of the chief of these Is the system of ventilation and cooling. It Is known as the air washing system. This is operated through a large blower fan which suck the air down a shaft from the top of the roof and brings the air into eontaot with a spray of water thoroughly washing and cooling the air before It is forced on through otner ducts and pipes lo the gratings through which it escapes Into the theater Itself. In tlie hot summer time this water Is cooled $12:05 3 $12.05 "Xeton ar tttrprovldaDt sonia, Mr fHond. the actor, looked at ptty-bily.

He went on to recount gayly how he had been Invited to a real dinner a week age, and aa he waa aettllng down to the second courae a tooth broke.

"Poor thing. It waa un-accuatomed to the work," he laughed. When he waa gone my actor said: "That boy Is a deep student of Dtckena.

His enthualaam for something big his wonderful power of seeing the great, for he waa an ardent hero-worshipper that explained his smile.

We atopped before an old man who ducked his head to one aide as he talked and smiled out loud, not a laugh, a sort of contented chuckle. His nose was fat, his mouth was sunken, the latter showing it had long needed the rows of auspiciously even teeth which hla am lie disclosed, long before Its want could be satisfied.

A bright young girl nodded to him, talking aa she passed us. "What are you doing?" he asked. "Working." she aald "no, not playing. Must go, have only fifteen minutes left to lunch." Bhe waa a very clever actress, but she could not afford to remain Idle, so took a position as a stenographer when out of engagement, and spent three parta of her luncheon hour at the agencies looking for the work that ahe loved. Bhe Was merry, too at least, she wore the amile.

My actor stopped te talk to a prosperous-looking woman with a little child. He pulled out a handful of cigar bands and coupons for the little one, which the mother carefully looked through before she looked up and smiled her thanks. She had three little ones and herself to keep, mi actor told me when we passed on, ana the reason she had examined the coupons waa that he had passed a dollar bill with them one day to the child, and the mother had returned it, plainly suspicious of the truth, that It had not been an accident. He saved the cigar bands for the children for playtnlngs. The coupons she accepted only when he assured her that otherwise they would be thrown away.

She spent her days at the offices of the agents and the managers, her nights in sewing. "Come in here," said my aotor, and we stepped Into a hotel off a side street. AVe went upstairs and I was Introduced to a sick man, whose face wore the smile 1 was becoming familiar with. We did not stay long, but It seemed a sort of duty for the friends of this sick man to spare a moment or two out of their rushing hours to visit him- and give him a word of cheer. He "belonged," although he was out of the race, and would probably never re-enter It.

"One of ourselves." my actor described him as, "and what you would call an Improvident soul, tor he had money at one time: it seemed to pour Into his pockets in what looked like an unending atream.

In th doll Industry only some special part of the dolls is made by each person. Some make the bodies, others th head, and still others the arms, hands, etc. By this division the work 1 done much quicker and better. The heads are first molded, and, whan sufficiently dry, the eyea are cut out by a skilled worker with a very thin, sharp knife. This Is extremely delicate work because all fthe sockets have to be of uniform else or th eye do not lib After being burned, the heads are paint, ed, waxed or glazed, depending on the material from which the heads are mad.

The arms, legs and hands ar produced In a similar but simpler manner, a the painting oonslsts only in giving th necessary flesh color, while the head must have rosy cheeks, red lips and dark or light eyebrows, depending on the color of the eye. The setting of the eyes and th making and attaching of the wigs Involve a number of other process. The doll industry Is now commencing to make the "character dolf in restrlot-ed numbers. Th modal Is made by an artist and the molds are then copied from this model.

At an expense of 15000 the management of the lsls had an organ constructed by a Chicago concern specially for this theater. This organ is fifteen feet wide, twelve feet deep and twenty feet high. It Is Installed behind the mirror curtain on the stage, the console or keyboard being ailuated In the orchestra pit and connected with the organ by means of trackers. It is ctalrqed by the management of the lsls that the new theater is absolutely fireproof. Concrete, cement and steel were used in the work of construction.

Even In case of a fire th building is so well supplied with places of exit that little harm could result to the people assembled. Including the front entrance, there are four main exits to th building and two stage exits, besides other Indirect exits. The lsls has a seating capacity of about 700, 660 on the lower Moor and 160 in the balcony. The scats are opera chairs, upholstered In leather and finished In brushed brans. The balcony Is reserved at all times tor colored people exclusively.

There is a separate entrance to the balcony. In the effort to make the building completely fireproof great care was taken In the construction of the operating booth for the motion picture maohtne. It Is of solid concrete construction, the walls being 12 to 18 Inches thick, and conforms In every particular to the building code of the city. The Simplex machine will be used In presenting the motion pictures, and this Is said to be ao perfect that the flicker and Indistinctness Is done away with altogether on the white screen, and there Ib no renulting weariness or damage to the eye The electrical mechanism throughout the entire building is magneto controlled. For purposes of Illumination three large circular domes have been constructed In the ceiling and fitted with' electric, bulbs.

Besides these circular domes there are ranged around the auditorium fourteen three-section hanging lamps attached to brackets of special design. The exit lights are, of course, red. The ventilation of the building is further provided for hy three ventilators Installed in the roof. These ar so contrived that dead air, accumulating in the upper portions of th auditorium, is pulled out of th building by suction. The proprietor of th Fichtenberg enterprises, of which the lsla now becomes one, is Herman Fichtenberg of New Orleans.

He operates numerous theaters in the South of the same class and character as the lsls. Among these may be mentioned the Alamo, Dream World, Picto, Bonlta and Wonderland In Now Orleans, and the Alamo In Vlcksburg, Miss.

There was nothing for my actor, but he grabbed, my arm excitedly and hurried me out Into the street. We walked quickly across town to a shabby lodging house, and when we were up many flights stairs in a room which waa hut a burlesque of a bedroom I was hastily Introduced to a young man. My actor, it transpired, had heard of a part 'that would Just suit his friend and had come to hurry him off to try for It.

The young man began to dress Immediately. His clothes were in harmony with his surroundings, not good for daylight eyes to look upon. Gravely he brushed the napless -coat, and carefully trimmed off the edges of the trousers with the scissors. My actor surveyed him critically. "That your best rig?" he asked.

"My best and only," was the reply. "They'll offer you about half what the part is worth. If they give you a chance at all. kid," he added. And without another word ho pulled off his own clothes and made his friend put them on.
