L. NJ. Miller of Lincoln, Neb., Talks of
Independent Theater.

L. NJ. Miller, who is erecting an in
dependent theater in Lincoln, was in
Topeka comforting with Manager
Hagen of the Novelty tneater yester-
day. The latter has been negotiating
with G. F. Miller for a $4,000 theater
to be erected on West Eighth avenue
Topeka is a better show town than
Lincoln" said Mr.. Miller to a State
Journal reporter. you have the Sun
day shows and we have only six days
in the week For that reason Topeka
is better to play in than my town. 1
don't see why q new theater mere
should not be a great success.
1--WE are now building new play
house in Lincoln which will cost about
$4,000. It will seat about 1, coo people
and we will have a stage ample enough
to play all attractions. We have the
money all up and in the bank and We
are now clearing the ground for the
erection of the building. We are re-
ceiving the greatest sort of encourage
ment from the peoples of Lincoln who
are standing right back of us and who
have urged US from the start to put
I'D the new building. The conditions
in Lincoln have been similar to that
here in Topeka. If anything I should
consider the prospects of new play
house here in Topeka would bring to It
greater support and assurance OF sue
cess than those even which nave at
tended us. I believe that a stock com
pany would be the thing to introduce
in Topeka. A stock company to fill in
the dates not taken up by the attrac-
tons of -Belasco would catch
on well here. I am planning things
along that line for Lincoln; a stock
company for popular prices with these
greater attractions.
st think, judging from what we have
found out in consulting with architects,
that you would be able to put up a
very nice theater here, with a balcony
and a ground floor and a seating ca
pacity Of about 1900. for close to $685.

OF INCENDIARY ORIGIN.
Suspicion That a CherryvaIe Fire Did
Not Start by Accident.

Cherryvale. Kan, Dec 22.-At an
early hour this morning fire broke out
in the dry goods and clothing store of
NJ Grinspan, situated on the corner of
the best business block in town. For
time the entire business district was
threatened.
Prompt and hard work by hremen and
citizens, however, prevented t he spread
ing of the flames.
The loss of c. ". Dicks, owner Of the
building, is $500 which is fully covered
by insurance. The loss on the stock Of
goods is estimated at $1,000 also fully
insured.
The origin of the fire is complete
mystery but incendiarism is suspected.
Mr.. Grinspan is missing.

GAR ABSENT FROM PARADE
Grand Duke Represents Him at Spec
tacular Military Ceremony at
st. Petersburg.

St. Petersburg, April 8.-The annual
parade of the Horse guards, always
heretofore one of the most spectacular
military ceremonies as we'll as social
functions of the year, was chiefly nota-
BILE Friday by the absence of Emperor
Nicholas and the imperial family. The
Horse guards is the emperor's own
regiment and never before has he failed
to attend it's annual parade. With the
empress. dowager empress and the en-
tire court the emperor remained at
Tsarskoe-Selo. The only grand dukes
who ventured out of their palaces were
Nicholas, Boris and Alexander Michael
ovitch, the first named representing the
emperor. Even Grand Duke Vladimir.
commander of the military district, was
not present. the explanation being that
he was detained at the palace on ac-
count of sickness. The danger to the
imperial family was regarded as espe-
cially great, as it happened that this
was the festival OF the Immaculate
Conception, one OF the strictest religious
holidays.
All business was suspended. The en-
tire population was in the streets, and
the fear of an untOward incident in
view of the activity of the terrorists in
duced extraordinary precautions. The
police made number of arrests, but
the military display happily passed off
without disturbance.
