The basement at the [[City Opera House]] is clean for the first time in several years. As might be expected the basement there is used for the most part to store things that are not wanted up above. One part is the city lockup and this, or course, is always kept in good shape. The remainder of the big basement, though, was full of rubbish. The Boone brothers were engaged to do the work of hauling it away and they hauled a great many wagon loads before it was all removed. There were several tons of coal left over from the time the opera house was heated with coal. This was taken to the city pumping station at Bloomington. Several loads of old boxes and boards, old paper and rubbish of all kinds were removed. A box of fireworks was found among the rubbish. It was stated Wednesday afternoon that this box had been there for several years. City officials regarded the basement as a fire menace in its former condition.
