Isis Theater
Salt Lake City, Utah
Open in 1908, the Isis Theatre was one of the first motion picture theaters in Salt Lake City. Its manager in 1910 was Max Florence, who a year later tried to blackmail the LDS Church by selling amateur photos of the Salt Lake Temple interior. Dan Kostopulos, a benefactor of underprivileged children, later renamed it the Broadway Theatre. In a 1976 press conference, Palace Theatre operator Lee Harper complained bitterly of persecution, made acusations of police brutality, threatened the life of a local judge, and accused the LDS Church of being involved with the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luthar King.

Big Branch House for Beaver
Beaver City Press, 28 February 1913, page 1
Arrangements have been completed between John F. Jones of Beaver and Consolidated Wagon and Machine Company of Salt Lake City for the latter to install a Branch House in Beaver. These people have leased the Jones Hall and will put in a big stock of Hardware Implements and Machinery and the business will be owned and controlled by them. They have selected Mr. Ennes Jones as manager of the concern, and it is expected that they will do a big business to this line.
