The Tapdlty OF BrOOhlyns CROWN Is mauc man
fest in many ways. One Of the striking signs Of
the times Is the determination Of Colonel William
f. slnn of the Park Theatre, TO erect new theatre
in a central location The Colonel undoubtedly
means business lie IS not given TO talk about pro
iccts which have no basis except in the imagination
Just where the theatre is to be, Colonel Sim Will
not say with pOstiveness. Not that there Is any
doubt on this point In his mind or the minds
Of those associated with him In the enterprise,
Colonel Sim has good reasons for not telling Just
where the house IS TO be built. All he VIII say
IS that It will be I'm Futonst, between the Bridge
and Flatbushave. l think It is safe to say, however
that it Will be above the City Hail. rather than below
II. The Colonel gives an emphatic denial to the
story that has been printed that the theatre
IS TO be I'm Pcarl-st, near Myrtle ave. lie said
yesterday that the plans Of the building had already
been drawn and that the house will be open for
the public on October l. 1890 The structure VIII
be a handsome one and undoubtcd addition TO the
architecture OF Brooklyn. That IS not saying great
deal to be sure but far can be learned Colonel
Sims theatre will be notable from an architectural
and aesthetic point of view The site is valued at
500. 900, and the cost Of the building VIII bring
the amount involved in the venture up TO 100000.
Not the least interesting thing about the theatre
VIII be its name. 1t is TO be called the Montaul
Theatre. Colonel Sims aim IS to preserve one of
the Indian names characteristic OF Long Island, and
also give an original and suggestive designation to
the new playhouse. He IS firmly convinced that
the time has for such enterprise I'm Brooklyn,
and has no doubt that generous response will be
made 10 his efforts TO supply the people with amuse
| ment He has no intention OF abandoning the Park
| Theatre TO which he has devoted fifteen years OF
work. but will manage the two houses concurrently
| Meantime he proposes to make improvements in the
Park and al the time the Montauk Theatre is opened
The Park Theatre will be rcopencd, after having
undergone thorough renovation
There was a famous saying Of Mr. Bcechers which
s worth recalling mere. After the brooklyn Theatre
fire meeting in aid Of the sufferers was held In h'
| .cadenv Of Music Mr. Bcecher took a prominent
mart in IL; think he presided AT all events. in thu
course Of the meeting had occasion to refer 10 thu

Shall We Have an Agricultural College:

10 the Editor of the Herald and News:
1t seeus that our people have had but
one side Of this great question pre-
Sented to them. The arguments On
that side have been sounded from the
mountains 10 the Srlboar'l until it is an
old SOng, rrvcricrating until every
candidate for political Office trun Gov
rrnor 70 Coroner has c;uyit on to the
Idea hecau>c the thing is thought t. he
popular. IN one SenSc we are not
opposed 10 the establishment Of an
agricultural college, but We clnHot sec
that the people OF South Carolina are
quite ready for such Il movement. We
believe that even the money that is
appropriated TO the experimental STA
tions could be put TO ucttcr use. Every
farm in the State upon which Il man
pretends to farm ut al! is IN experiment
tai station. Our great and Wise men,
however, must experiment ut great
eXpcnSe TO the taxpayer, who keeps
ploddlng on, Year il and year out hard
~ able TO keep up under the tax bur-
den.
We may put it down ;,s fact, with
out fear of contradiction. if this college
OF which so much has been said, is
established, there will be very few sous
of poor farmers sent and "bOoked' as
students. When we say poor farmers,
we mean those who are in straitened
circumstances; who live on rented
farms, and when the years account
is balanced, nothing with which to
educate his children. Talk ''colIege"
rs much as we please, it will only be an
advantage to the few and favored.
1t is we'll known fact that a boy cam
not enter 4 college unless he has some
preparation. 1t is therefore incumbent
upon Us as people to improve our CONF
mon school system, where all our chill
drcn Gun get the advantages Of an
English education, and then We will
be prepared for the proposed college.
Our common schools can be improved
by giving them the thousands Of dol
lars which are spent on experimental
projects and Immigration schemes.
We believe if the people should think
and act for themselves the horse would
be put before the cart; as it is HOW, the
cart is before the horse, and we see
nothing but failure. JUSTICE.
