Although operations liegan early last month, and are be ink pushetl forward as rapidly as possible, it will be physically, impossible to have the secontl and third stories, which will comprise the hotel section, ready forsthe ; present season.

It will contain 150 bedrooms and y 150 bathrooms, each bedroom its sepa crate bathroom, all furnished with the e most modern conveniences Tor the comfort of guests.

Simultaneously, extensive altera- { ■ ; tions and improvements are in pYog- j ■ immediately opposite, at the HipI podrome ami Theatre. Instead of as i in the center, the main entrance of an ornate and artistic design, will be located on Ninth street. t Six additional exits will be provided ! opening out on both sides of the buildt : ing, to a platform leading by a gentle ; i incline down to the Boardwalk. The plans include further the re- j construction of the proscenium arch,, on a much larger scale, • while the

stage proper will be accoutred with all the necessary appliances, lighting gfs- t terns, and paraphernalia to stage any class of entertainment, which may be m '■ eventually introduced.
