after several years OF af1uencs, and deter
mined to Guido any farmer in the priacipaI-
ty, he had put another barn, twies as high
and as large, behind and against the frat one

But when alive, wise old Wagner could
give American theater builders points upon
interior construction. The stage and access

as large as the auditorium itself. The width
of the stage is ninety feet; the depth (stage
proper is seventy-eight feet; to which is an
feet wide; giving on occasions like the pre-
sentation of "Parsifal" q total stage depth of
one hundred and eighteen feet. The height
of the stage from the floor to the attachment
of flies is ninety feet. The open space below
the stage, the stage cellar, has depth of
thirty feet, and the open space above
the flies is twenty-six feet, giving total dis
use in stage mechanism to the floor Of the
stage cellar of one hundred and fifty feet.
The auditorium to American eyes at first
seems as painfully ugly and plain as is posi-
ble for the monkish, morbid genius of man
to create. But one gradually discovers sys-
tenn and arrangement of wondrous real
worth. There is not a proscenium box, or

The seats circle to the right and left from
the cavernous space in front of the stage,
where the orchestra is shut out from view,
to the rear at an angle of elevation of about
thirty degrees. Following these at either
side with lessening projection are lateral
walls reaching to the ceiling, the ends OF
which are detached Corinthisn columns with
long. square bases. These diminishing col-
umns terminate at the rear at either end of

This gallery comprises simply six stalls or
boxes, the whole capable of comfortably
seating one hundred persons, from which ex-

A NARROW ESCAPE.

Following the thought expressed
in these columns yesterday, comes
the following report Of a miraculous
escape of burial alive. The percent
age Is enormous. We have more
fears of being buried alive than we
have Of death.
This last escape was ut st. Louis.
The ailment was calalepsy.
The story is to the effect that a
young married woman, twenty-five
years Of age, was in her coffin and
about to be taken out for burial,
when her husband saw her arm
move, ordered her to be taken out of
the coffin at once, called in two
physicians, who, after examination,
pronounced life not extinct, and be-
gan a process of resuscitation.
Their efforts were successful, and
the woman was in short time
brought back to consciousness.
The story was obtained from her
sister, II young married woman.
The sister says: "The most terrible
part of il all is that she knew per
fectly everything that was going on
around her. When she was being
dressed for burial she realized what
was being done, and tried her best
to show signs Of life, but could not
do so. When she was placed in the
coffin an awful feeling Of what was
b be her doom came over her, and
he says she tried to scream, and
hought she succeeded but Of course
she did not.
"Whcn she came to and related to
us an account of the mental torture
she had experienced during the time
he trance lasted she said: Where
were you all when ! screamed"
"Whcn she was living in the coffin
she tried to move, but failed, until
little child came running into the
room and asked to look at her. Then
her arm cramped and her husband,
who was standing by the coffin,
happened to see it. Had |
