vate enterprise counts frontage too ex- pensive. so the single entrance plan has been adopted
 '.The theater proper occupies the in terior of plot. of ground. the street frontage being devoted to other pur- poses. with one or perhaps two passages reserved for entrances. New York boasts several theaters typical of this scheme. as do almost all our larger cities, but the significance of this state ment is that they constitute the newest and most costly of our buildings A writer has aptly described the decora- tive schemes of the New Amsterdam, the Empire and other New York play houses. But what of the material, the practical side of these theaters? Com pare the single entrance, the niggardly street frontage. with the majestic set ting, the splendid isolation, of a Euro pean opera house.

 There is an understanding between the Nashville and Memphis clubs that the latter is to join our forces as soon as Latonia's attitude is settled said MT. Vim recently.

 New York.

Farmers Return ThaMKS 70 Suhy OG
 New York,
 There was held at Showdown yester- day an enthusiastic and we'll attended meeting of the cotton planters of that community in response to the call made by the late convention at New Or leans.
 Dr. J. c. Mason was chosen as Pres ident and H. G. Lamar as Secretary of the meeting. There was perfect unity of feeling among all present as to the policy of reducing the acreage in cot ton and the curtailrient in the use of fertilizers for the coming crop.
 Strong and interesting speeches were made by Dr. Mason, Messrs. Stowers, J. B. Walters and Dan Carney. DE Mason and MT. Walters suggested that the heroic efforts of Daniel J. Sully of New York for the Southern cotton during 1903 and 1904 should never be forgotten, and that the meeting extend to him deep gratitude for the same. The following resolutions were unani- mously adopted:
 Resolved. That we, the farmers re- siding at Showdown, Montgomery Coun- ty, in convention assembled, do most heartily endorse the action of the late cotton convention at New Orleans. and that we hereby pledge ourselves to do all in our power to carry out the wishes of said convention by reducing our acreage in cotton and by the cur taiIment in the use of fertilizers in the coming crop. and that we will with hold all cotton now on hand from the market until a better price can be ob- tained.
 Resolved further. That we hereby express our thanks to Hon. Daniel J. Sully of New York for the splendid fight he made for the Southern cotton growers during the years of 1903 and 1904"
 The following gentlemen were select- ed as delegates to the county conven- tion to be held in Montgomery on Feb- ruary 21: H. c. Lamar, J. B. Walters and I H Callawnv
