The thestre going people OF Whining
ton are always ready to grant q welcome
to a new dramatic author. aud never fail
to show substantial fsvors when the
Offering proves worthy OF serious con
sldeFation; therefore, 1t is safe to
presume that there will be q representa-
tive gathering at the performance to be
given at the Grand Opera House for the
seoond time this season OF Russ Whytsls
singulsrly successful romantic play Of
southern intsrest-"For Fair Virgins"
will appeal for favors Mr.. aud Mrs.

cast Of unsqualled talent, and special
praise has bsen bestowed bpon the scenic
and artistic features. II will be
pleasantly remembered that "For Fair
Virginia" was seen here for the frst
time last November and scored one.ef
the most emphatic hits ever known.
therefore the return Of so excellent a
play is indeed welcome to those who

MADE MILLIONS LAUGH.
They Now Mourn the Demise Of Humoris
Bill Nye.

They Now Mourn the Demise OF Humcrisi
Bill Nye.
AsHEvmIE, n. c., Feb. 24--The death
Of Edgar W. Nye, known more widely as
Bill Nye, will be deplored by the millions
to whose enjoyment the huinorist had con.
trihuted, both as q writer and lecturer.
He passed away at his home, Buck Shoals
surrounded by his family, death resulting
from stroke Of paralysis, with which he
was afflicted ten days ago.
Bill Nye became known TO the public as
a humorist about 3 years ago through ex-
tracts copied from a newspaper called The
Boomerang, edited by him at Laramie,
Wy. His wit was Of the droll style pecul.
lar to the boundloss west.
1t did not take long for both the paper
and its editor to become famous through
out the country.
More than ten years ago Nye accepted a
position on a newspaper in New York
city, and for several years since has been
on the staff Of the American Press Asso-
citation. This last connection continued
up TO the time Of his death
He made a number of lecturing tours
through the country and wrote two plays.
one Of which, 1.-THE Cadi, =" was produced
by Thomas O. Seabrookc. The other play
was written In collaboration With Paul
NJ. Potter. Its title was "The Stag Par
ty' and was produced at the Garden thea
ter, New York, two months ago. 1t was
not a success.
Nye made his home on Staten Island
with his wife and four children-two sons
and two daughters-for a short time, but
some years ago bought a handsome estate
at Buck Shoals, n. c., where he has since
resided
Tho late Edgar W. Nyo win bo buried
at 10 a. IN. tomorrow in the Episcopal
churchyard at Fletcher's Station, on the
Asheville and Spartanburg railroad, 10
miles south Of Asheville ond three miles
from Buck shoals, the late home Of the
deceased. A child Of Mr.. Nye's IS buried
there. Mrs. Nye has received hundreds
Of kilograms Of coincidence from prominent
literary persons and friends Of Mr.. Nye
from all sections of the country.
