Chandler, chairman of'the bathing beach com- mittee, to be used for dressing rooms in Evanston's municipal bathing beach. It is now definitely assured that the beach will be opened by Sat- urday and that good facilities will be offered to the hundreds of persons seeking recreation in Lake Michigan's waters at the foot of Cook street The donation of a small frame bouse owned by the David Rutter Coal com- pany, located at Emerson street and Ridge avenue, has been made to the bathing beach committee by J. W, Franz, manager of the company. This structure will be removed to the beach at once, and should there be any delay In the arrival of the tents this week, it will be temporarily con- verted ln{o dressing quarters for the women and girls. The house is four- teen feet square. ThCplan settled upon tor three big tents was made following information which showed that the portable house idea would be too expensive for the initial season of the bathing beach. The tents will be durable and much cooler, it is said, than the galvanised iron buildings. One of the canvas "big tops" will be devoted to the use of boys, another to women and girls, and the third to men. That the tents may be kept clean and commodious, James R. Duthle, president of the Bvanston Commercial association and manager of the Mears- Slayton Lumber company, has do- nated lumber enough to floor the three tents completely. Frank Coratto, who has been en- gaged to direct the affairs at the free beach, has already started work In fixing up the new recreation place. According to Dr. W. T. McHHveen, Coratto has already transformed the beach into a playground, which would hardly be recognized as the same spot, along the lake front. He has re- moved all of the brush and rubbish from the grounds, has built steps from the university campus to the water's edge and has placed the lite lines in the water and is conducting other necessary preliminary work. As soon as the tents arrive, the old house donated by the Rutter Coal company will be used by Coratto as his home. A satisfactory response Is being made by public-spirited Bvanstonlans to the appeal for funds to finance the tree public beach. W. J. Hamilton, who has always been to the fore in any movement which furnishes fun and recreation for Young America, gained the honor of being the first person to subscribe a dollar to the fund. Subscriptions can be made pay- able to 0. D. Tomilson, treasurer of the committee, and mailed to him, care of the State Bank of Bvanston. She Will Be Succeeded by an Artist of International Reputation. It will be Impossible to retain the Baroness von Rottenthal, at Ravinla longer than tomorrow night, when she will dance there' for the' last time. The management bad hoped to keep her until the start of the grand opera season, on July 28, but as that arrangement ia out of the question, a surprise may he looked for in the en- gagement of an artist of international fameâ€"the greatest dancer who ever has appeared at- Ravinla, it is said. The arrangements are not yet com- pleted. Mr. Stock will remain in personal direction of the concerts until and in- cluding July 27. T5eorge Warner, a gardener, former- ly employed by Howard Nutt in Glen- coe, forfeited a 11.000 bond, signed by Mr. Nutt, In Police Magistrate Prouty's court in Wlnnetka Monday, when fc • failed to appear. Warner was arretted Saturday on a statutory charge preferred by Howard Moore, superintendent of the Juvenile Pro- tective association of the north shore, who investigated the case.

GROCER WINTER GIVES TARANTULA TO SCHOOL in Krailworth Has Fine Specimen at Store and Donates It to North- western University, A splendid specimen of the taran- tula, with a family of several hundred young, has "Just been presented by George B. Winter of Evanston to Prof. Lewis of the health department. In turn he probably will give the mother tarantula and its young to the North- western university to be added to the zoological collection. The tarantula was found in a bunch of bananas about two weeks ago by a clerk in the Winter store. It was in a nest of a cottony appearance, which was placed in a glass jar with the poisonous > many-legged Insect. Last week the presence of several hundred tiny tarantulas was noted by the clerks. Live flies constituted the only diet which proved satisfactory to the ven- omous specimens. It is possible that if the young insects can be kept alive, Northwestern university will have one of the most unusual collections In cap- tivity.
