A SUPFRSTITION.-The site on which the
burned Brooklyn theater was built was once
occupied by st. Johns Episcopal church.
was erected in 1881 under the direction of
Domino Johnson. 1t was subsequently occu-
pied as a church residence. The church was
free one, and the minister received no COM
pensation. About 1858 the property was sold
To the present owners. At one time IL was
offered TO the United States government for
the site of a new post Office. This project was
not carried into effect. Hundreds of people
in Brooklyn would not visit the theater on
account of il being erected on church prop
erty. and il is a well-knOwn fact that many
superstitious people predicted its destruction.
