the same consideration and attention as

SOME OLD THEATERS.
Playhouses That FIourtshed In An
cient Greece and Rome.

Playhouses That Flourished In An
cient Greece and Rome.
You may wonder what there could
be injurious to public morality in
theater made of stone. Consul P. Cor
nelius Scipio Naseia knew, but history
doesn't tell. The first attempt to build
q stone theater in Rome was made a
short time before he was elevated to
his Office. It was sanctioned by the
censors and was nearing completion
when Scipio persuaded the senate to
command it to be pulled down, ad-
vancins as his reason solicitude for
public morality.
The Romans did not possess a regu-
lar stone theater until very late Pc
riod. and, although dramatic repre-
sentations were very popular in early
times. it appears that wooden stage
was created when necessary and was
afterward pulled down again, and the
plays of Plautus and Terence were
performed on such temporary scafold-
ings. In the meanwhile many Of the
neighboring towns Of Rome had their
stone theaters, as the introduction Of
Greek customs and manners was less
strongly opposed in them than in the
city of Rome itself. Wooden theaters.
adorned with the most profuse mag
nifcence. were erected at Rome even
during the last period of the republic.
A magnificent wooden theater plan
ned by NJ. iEmilius Scaurus was built
in his adileship 5S B. G. Its scena
consisted of three stories. and the low
er of them was made Of white marble.
the middle one Of glass and the upper
one Of gilt wood. The cavea contained
$4,000 spectators. In SIS B. c. Cn. Pom
pey built the first stone theater at
Rome. near the Campus Martius. 1t
was of great beauty and is said to have
been built after the model Of that Of
Mytilene. 1t contained 10000 specta-
tors. ~ zssssszsa
c. Curio built in so B. c. two magnif-
icent wooden theaters close by one an
other, which might be changed into
one amphitheater. After the time of
Pompey. however. other stone theaters
were erected, as the theater Of Mar
cellus. which was built by Augustus
and called after his nephew Marcellus,
and that of Balbus. whence Suetonius
used the expression. Per trina thea

when Pens Were First Used.

About the year GOO A. D. pens made
