TIE MODERN rsEarpe
A Well Known Manager Tells How II Can
be Built to Best AID vantaga

In a talk with Mai, Tilford, manager and
husband of Annie Pixley, as to building n
new thcater in Memphis, that gentleman
said; II have sccn all the leading thcaters
in the country, old style and new STYLE, vet
there is but one way to build one properly.
II must bc'crected IN the ground loor-up-
stairs theaters are out of date and are ALWAYS
dangerous. II should be built in the center
of business at a point tho most accessible
from all parts of the city, A deep lot should
be secured and the thcater erected on tho
back of the lot, the land being least valuable.
On the front lot there should he an arcade
and on the sides fancy stores-a druggist, for
instance, these stores also having an opening
into the arcade. Such stores will command
big rents. They do 50 everywhere. The
arcade should contain the ticket Office, and
should be large enough TO shelter 200 people.
This Is the modern and most successful
method OF building a thcater. Being back
OF the street, no noise Is heard and the au.
diencc romain undisturbed to enjoy the
performance. In this way the back lot is
Just as valuable for thcater purposes us the
front lot, while the latter commands bug
rental for fancy store purposes"

Special Dispatch 20 The Appeal.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, March 25.-Rcy. Mr..
Hartscll, secretary OF the Frceman's Aid So
cicty, has been in this city today comforting
with the local boards Of the Chattanooga
University and the Grant Memorial univcn.
ity at Athens, with reference 10 the consoli.
dation OF the two. The plan Is meeting with
much opposition here. as the Chattanooga
university has about s25D,0OO worth Of prop
erty and the Grant Memorial has not over
$1,000 worth. The complaint here is that
the Chattanooga property should not be de.
voted 20 building mp n school at Athens.
The citizens OF Chattanooga sub-cr bed over
$1,000 TO the University here, aud they
think the school here can sustain itself.

LONDON, March IA dispatch
from Madrid to the Times says the ar
rest Of Ponsonby was made in conse-
quence Of TELEGRAM from the British
foreign affairs. Ponsonby arrived
from Paris on Thursday morning. His
only baggage was small hand bag.
When arrested he took the situation
calmly and threw the officers off the
scent with an excuse that he wished
to get his overcoat. He retired to an
alcove and shot himself in the mouth
with revolver. He died instantly.
His head was horribly disfgured.
Piggott's telegram to Mrs. Harmon
read thus: "Please ask Mr.. s. to send
me what he promised. Write to Ro-
land Ponsonby, Hotel des Ambassa-
dours, Madrid" Immediately on the
receipt of the telegram Mr.. Soames
telegraphed to Inspector Littlechild Of
the police notifying him that Piggott
was in Madrid, and afterward carried
Piggot's Telegram, to him.
Besides Pjggot's check book letter
addressed to Mr.. Labouchere and q H.
cense to carry arms in Ireland, were
found on his body. The letter ad-
dressed to Labouchere was closed and
ready for mailing. In it Piggott says
that the fret batch of letters sold by
him to the Times were genuine, but
that in the second batch were several
forgeries, including two ascribed to
Parnell and one each to Uavitt,
O'Kelly and Egan. Piggott further
says 81 am deeply sorry for all those l
have injured, aud am ready to place at
their disposal all the means In my
power, to remedy all that 1 have said
that was false. Everything written
under oath was true" The license to
carry arms was dated at Dublin. A
check book on the Ulster bank was
also found on the body. Piggott tried
to negotiate check at Madrid bank,
but in the absence of proof Of his iden-
tify the bank refused to cash it.
A note book full of interesting notes
was also found. The body lies with
four others in the Southern morgue.
The bullet entered bis mouth and came
out at the back of his head near the
neck on the right side The British
embassy at Madrid has given orders
for decent burial.
Madrid, March 2.-The authorities
to-day took the evidence of the hotel
people regarding Piggott's movements
Several religious medals were found
upon Piggott's person.

Youthful Immigrants.

New York, March. Warmly clad
in home-spun garments Louis E., Will
liam and Herman HIM, the oldest
scarcely ten years old, walked into
Castle Garden to-day from the North
German Lloyd steamship. The chill.
dren had travelled alone from Brennan.
Inscribed on rough plaOard suspended
on accord around each little neck, in a
woman's writing, was the following re-
quest: "Please assist my little ones
to reach their father, Herman Hins,
Flatonia, Fayette county, Tex" The
youngest Of the children, the little
girl, acted as spokesman and seemed
to be in charge Of the family. The
children spent the night at the Ger.
man emigrant house, on State street
and started for Texas on the Mallory
line steamer Nueces this afternoon.

Killed His Father Too.

Fort SMITH, Ark, March 2.-B.
M. Caple, the father Of Frank Caple,
convicted of murder in the Federal
court yesterday, died at the Cleveland
house late this evening. The old man
came here to attend the trial of his
SOD, but was taken i'll when the case
came up. His condition was SO criti-
cal that his attendants did not tell him
the result of the trial. This afternoon
it became apparent that he would not
live and word was sent to the Jail to
that effect. The condemned man was
handcuffed, and, accompanied by three
guards, Was conducted to the bedside
Of his parent. Upon entering the
room Caple knelt by the bedstead, and
for time gave away to bitter grief.
His father asked him about bis case,
and he replied:
Father, / cannot tell you lie on
your death bed. They have convicted
me of murder"
The dying father told his boy hit
trouble was the cause of his death, and
prayed God to have mercy on him
The condemned man was conducted
back to Jail, and in half an hour hi,
father was corpse.
