Stringham Theatre
Price, Utah
C. M. Stringham, proprietor of the Eko Theatre, purchased a lot on the north side of Main Street, with the intent of building a 1000-seat, first class theatre. The building was to be “a good and substantial one,” a theatre of which Price could “well be proud and one that will be the equal, on a smaller scale of course, of any theatre in the state in beauty and completeness.” At one point, construction was to start within 60 days. Instead, Stringham purchased the Colonial Theatre four years later and moved to Ogden.

Ogden Standard Examiner, 29 August 1908, page 6
A horse belonging to James Ford, paper hanger, 141 Patterson avenue, near the corner of 23rd and Adams avenue, and breaking its bridle dashed down 23rd street to Washington, where it continued its flight until stopped in front of the Dreamland theater. One wheel of the wagon was demolished and several pedestrians had narrow escapes in avoiding the frightened animal.
