HOSTS DIE AT PLAYS.

No disaster ever occurred in an
American theater equaling In loss OF
life the Iroquois fire. and but two in
the history of the civilized world
would surpass 1t. In the destruction
OF the Ring theater in Vienna, twenty
two years ago. S75 persons perished.
and the burning of Lehman's play
house in st. Petersburg n half century
earlier caused the death of 800. But
the number OF holocausts in theaters
is large. and the grand total OF dead
aud manned H. wei up among the
thousands. The horrors we're gener-
ally OF the same nature. and the origin
of nearly all remarkably similar.
Humanity has paid an enormous
price in flesh and blood for Its amuse-
ments from the time when camelo-
pards and tigers bounded in Roman
ampitheatres to the present day, and
prophets of punishment In future
worlds paint no terrors worse than
those which have marked many as
semblages Of the pleasure-seeklng.
