A FINE AUDITORIUM
What M. w. Savage Is Making Of
the Old Exposition
Hall.
It Will Be Artistically Finished
and Will Seat 5000 or
1900.

When Z. A. McIvor, the decorator,
gets thru with the International aud
:itoriunl, it will bear little resemblance
to the old exposition hall.
Certain plans are under way for the
transformation of the interior which
will make it gem of an auditorium
two auditOriums in fact-One large
and one small. In proportion as the
auditorium Is patronized It will be
improved. M. w. Savage, the proprie-
tor, does not intend to make money
out of the rentals, but will turn the
profits back in improvements. AS
proceeds will take care Of. The pillars
will be removed, the floor renewed
and the parquet floor inclined. Other
radical changes will be made next
summer If the returns this season
warrant.
In the first place the auditorium
direction of KEGS & Colburn the
posts under the entire floor were ex-
amined. In some cases there were re-
placed, or where only slight damage
was evident the tops were sawed off
and replaced with iron caps. The
floor is even stronger than when the
building was new, because extra
unaccountahle reason when the struc-
ture was built have been put in.
The contract has been let to make
the glass ceiling absolutely water
proof. The main exit has been
| widened to eighteen feet. The Ort-
! man street exit has been Widened to
| sixteen feet and made straight. Thus
two exits are provided, one on Bank
street and one on Ortman. From the
galleries are built four wide stair
ways to the main floor. +
Other changes will appeal to the
eye principally. The main entrance
will be made exquisite with burlap
and decorations. The main hall will
be all painted over, including the seat
risers and the wooden gallery. seats
The ceiling will be of decorated
canvas. Immense scaffoldings have
been erected for this work. A unique
plan has been evolved by which the
capacity can be reduced from 5000
to 2,700 for the Philharm on1c concerts
or for any occasion which requires It.
Canvas curtains decorated to appear
like panel walls may be dropped to
shut off the entire gallery and the
| side raised seats. -
For the present the old seats viii
be used, but McIvor has the contract
for reupholstering the box seats.
! Green rooms are being built be.
hind and under the stage with a large
lobby connecting all. Altho the cost
will be over. 50 900, Mr. Savage has
decided to remove the stage pillars
next summer. This will give the
largest clear stage outside Of New
York and~the Auditorium in Chicago
and may give the largest in the coun-
! try. 80

Children Used for Targets

Children Used Tor Targets.
Constantinople, Oct. 21.-The sultan
ordered the arrest of the wife of lei
sula Bey, general Of infantry, for
her husband in the field in Macedonia
makes the following statements:
The crueltieS and atrocities of
which our men are guilty make me
ashamed of the uniform I wear.
Friends tell me that 1 have aged ten
years-no wonder, the women and chill
dren murdered by our soldiers in
droves will not let me sleep at night.
My own corps 1 hold in subsection,
having threatened to shoot inStanter
every man guilty of violating or hurt
ing women and children, but the ma
jority Of generals and captains are not
SO considerate. They allow their men
to do murder and worse, waging war
chiefly on women and little ones, too
small to do harm even in their
thoughts. And nightly, as seek rest,
the bodies Of the murdered appear in
my dreams, crying for mercy and
cursing me for what our soldiers are
doing
The Bey's wife was carried to the
palace and incarcerated in the
dungeons Of the police building there.
Out Of this building very few return on
foot. More often their bodies are
found in the harbor, sewed up in
sacks Of coarse linen.
Atrocities Drive Bey Insane.-A
private letter received from Thessa-
loniki reports that Ze1su1a Bey has
gone mad on account Of the scenes of
slaughter he was forced to witness.
It appears that the general, after
suffering a slight defeat at the hands
of the Macedonians, retreated to the
village Of AruenCy, where the avaunt
guard Of his troops had arrived be-
fore him. The general was Mortified,
upon turning into the main street, to
see hundred or more children hang
ing on trees telegraph poles and bal
comics, his soldiers shooting at them
and offering prizes to those Kidding a
body with bullets without killing the
child for a certain number of minutes,
while the parents of the little ones,
bound and gagged, were forced to
witness this game Of war;"
Coming suddenly uopn this awful
scene, made such an impression on
the hey, that he became raving
maniac. Lashing his horse to a gal
1op, he tried to cut the ropes by
which the children were hung with
his sword, but finding that the chill
dren were beyond saving, he dashed
into the rows of soldiers and dealt
blows right and left. Before he
could be overpowered, he Drained six
men and wounded over fifty others.
