Domestic Troubles Probably the Cause,
But the Motive Has Not Yet
Been Ascertained.

Grand Forks, July S.-The direct
cause leading up ITO the Mccormick
tragedy will probably remain a mys-
terry; the remote cause on causes may,
however, be domestic trouble. 1t is
inferred from the general rumor that
there had been ONE differences Of a
domestic nature between MI and Mrs.
Mccormick, one of them being a con-
tentio1f about the. children.
Nh. Mccormick, it seems, had been
displeased as to his wife's leniency
with the children and objected strenu-
ously to a number Of his daughters
companions and playmates. However,
this is but a rumor, and 1T may have
no direct connection with the
1t is the opinion Of the attending
physician and others who viewed the
remains, that Mr.. Mccormick was the
first to succumb ito the poison, the sup
posed cause of death being aconite, all
symptoms halmonizing with the po-
tency of the drug. The body of Mr..
Mccormick was rigid at the time OF
the examination, a further evidence of
death previous to that of his wife, who
was warm and in state of compare
tive relaxation. W. .&#
A peculiar feature of the case is that
there is no evidence of there having
been a separate vessel by which the
poison was carried to the bath room.
No bottle, package o. other vessel has
been found up to the present time.
This leads to the theory that the poi
son may have been mixed with the jug
of beer found in the room. Portions
of the lungs, liver and the stomach en-
tire, and also the jug containing the
liquor, were sent in the custody of
Professor Babcock, of the state Uni
versity, to the laboratories of the uni
make the proper chemical analysis. A
%coroner's jury will be impaneled a
week from today, at which time Pro-
lessor Babcock's report will be sub
mitted and all other evidence bearing
upon the case will be sifted.
Another question being asked by the
authorities is, who telephoned Mrs.
Lei ormick with the request that her
son go on an errand? It is known that
Mrs. Mccormick answered the .tele-
phone after entering the bath room.
The property and money left by the
deceased is estimated to be in the sum
of $4,000, consisting of a valuable
farm in Cass county. $1,000; insurance
in the Northwestern. $1,000; in Great
Northern stock and other minor and
incidental values.
MI. Mccormick was popular among
railroad men and others who knew
him and was known to be rational and
evenly balanced in every particular.
He was one of the most trustworthy
employees of the Great Northern sys-
TEN.
Mrs. Mccormick was formerly a
Miss st. John, of Lakota, where she

met and married MI. Mccormick some
eighteen years ago. Both were we'll
and favorably known and leave a num-
.ber of relatives in this vicinity.
Mr.. Mccormick was a Mason and a
member of the Order of Railway Con-
ductors, but carried no fraternal in
surance. He was a man forty years
old and a former resident of Detroit,
Mich, the present home of his par
ents.
The bodies were taken to Lakota to-
day, where the interment will take
place according to the rites and cere-
monies of the Masonic, order.

Alice Fisher in "Mrs. Jack.

Among the list of new stars to be
launched during the early part OF the
approaching season is Miss Alice Fisher.
who was last seen in Washington in
'Unleavened Bread in which she gave
a very delightful comedy portrayal OF a
woman rights enthusiast.
Miss Fisher will appear in play by
Grace Furniss, entitled Mrs. Jack"
There has been a good deal of diffl-
Guilty regarding some changes desired by
the management-or else the press agent
has been getting in some of his fine
Italian handiwork-for the papers of late
have been quite full of the squabbles be-
tween Manager Harris and Miss Furniss.
Miss Fisher was called in and soon
brought the warning factions to a proper
understanding. and now it is announced
that Mrs. Jack" will be presented with
the desired alterations, September Is.
The company will include Louise
Thorndyke Boucicault, Edward Abeles,
James Carew. Thomas Evans. Alice
Leigh. Florence Lloyd. Jacques Kruger.
Myrtle Vinton, Charles NJ. Collins. Anne
Huntington, Helen Chester. George
Schaefer and George Fox.

The Lafauette's First Attraction.

The season at the Lafayette Square
Theater. under the management OF Stair
& Havlin, the new lessees, will be in
augurated early in September, with
Richard Carvel," z. E. Roses dramat-
ic version of Winston Churchill's novel,
as the attraction.
Andrew Robson. young actor of con-
siderable repute, will play the part or
iginated by John Drew two seasons ago.
Mr.. Robson played the role last sea-
son. and was so successful that his nan
ayers decided TO retain the play for an
other year.
The Lafayette will, during the season.
present . number of attractions that
have heretofore played in the higher
priced theaters.
The regular prices will be between
those charged at the Academy, and the
National and the Columbia
There is good deal Of speculation in
local theatrical circles as 10 whether
the policy adopted by the new managers
OF the Lafayette will prove paying
one, but as the shows that will appear
at the former home of the stock COM
pany are first class, and as the prices
will be within the reach of all who care
for theatrical entertainment, the chanc-
es are that the Lafayette will be a pay
ing enterprise.

Harru Corson Clarke Goes Starring.

TO conduct season of stock perform
5nces at the Columbia Theater last
spring, resulted somewhat disastrously

state town liked the star and the play

Mr.. Clarke's tour Will lead him into
the Far West, where he enjoys quite a
vogue.
Mr.. Clarke's first appearance in the
Capital was with the Frawley stock
company, when he became a great ia
yorite by <eason Of several excellent
character portrayals. Later. he was a
member OF the Lafayette Square stock
company. and although he was about
the highest -salaried player of the or
esniZation, he had no chance TO demon
strate his worth as comedian.
His Columbia stock company scheme
WAS launched in the hope that he would
haze an opportunity TO introduce one or
two new comedies, with view to Sc
curing a suitable vehicle for a starring
tour this fell.

Souvenirs for EARLY Entertainments

The souvenir habit has broken out
very early in the season with the
amusement caterers of Gotham. Already
the people who patronize Quincy
Adams Sawyer" the latest rural play
to make its appearance. have been pre-
sented with copies OF the book from
which the play was taken, and now a
bandmaster from small Pennsylvania
town-Economy-who has been enter
tanning Gothamites with some of his
own compositions during the summer.
advertises that all who come to hear
his musicians play on a certain night
will be presented with bottle of home
made Economy wine.
The competition among the theatrical
managers will soon be so keen that they
will guarantee a frst-class performance
instead OF the customary nickel-plated
bon-bon box or autographed photos of
the stars or miniature clocks that are
not supposed to run properly after the
conclusion of the performance at which
they are given away 10 every lady pur
chasing reserved seat.

"The Show Girl" to Start Early.

E. f. Rice's new musical piece. "The
Show Girl" which scored a real sue
cess at Wallack's Theater, New York. a
few months ago. when Broadway was
inundated with pieces of like charac-
ter. and which succeeded In winning the
honors from the opposing attractions,
will be about the first of the pretentious
musical organizations to take to the
road for the season.
The start will be made at the Grand
Opera House, and after nine PERFORM
ances in the metropolitan playhouse
"The Show Girl" will move on to Wash
ington, where 1t will open the season at
the National Theater. September g.
Manager Rice introduced q lot OF new
performers to the theater-g -goers of the
metropolis. which undoubtedly had not
little to do with the success Of 1.-The
Show Girl" especially as the chief
players in the other musical affairs that
we're presented in Gotham about the
same time had little to offer in the shape
of new faces.
The New York critics said many very
nice things OF THE Show Girl" and the
chances are that it will be equally as
well liked when it comes to the Ma
tional.

Sousd Fails to Attract.

John Phillip Sousa and his band have
been the chief attraction at one of the
piers at Atlantic City during the past
month or so. but up TO date "The March
King" has failed TO draw hardly cor
poral's guard to his concerts.
This in no way worries Sousa, as he
is playing at the seashore resort under
a contract that guarantees him 81 900 for
every day of his engagement, yet it wor-
ries him considerably to think that his
fame and the excellence of his organi-
zation are not appreciated as they should
be By the visitors to the resort
There have been times-plenty of
them-when the audience has not num-
bered hundred persons
To strengthen the Sousa band. the
management OF the pier has engaged the
original "Florodora'' company, with
Edna Wallace Hopper. Cyril Scott, and
the really truly sextet, to appear
nightly in conjunction with the Sousa
organization.
The band proper will give a concert
In the afternoon, and most of he mu-
sfcians will constitute the orchestra for
the "Florodora" show, which will not
be under the direction of Sousa. but

ducting during the "Florodora' engage
ment at the Columbia Theater. this city.
last spring, was revelation, and at
the same time q JOY to persons who
take notice OF this very important part
of theatrical entertainment.

Foxy Grdndpa's" Success.

One OF those successes that happen
in the theatrical world every once in a
while, and which even the most ex-
perienced and astute of critics cannot
explain is Foxy Grandpa which, it
will be recalled, was evolved from a
series Of supposedly funny pictures that
appeared in metropolitan Sunday
paper. The piece made lot OF money
for its owners on the road before going
into New York last winter, and when
the metropolis was finally reached the
cultured amusement patrons of Gotham
were simply delighted with the anti..;
of the two boys and the aged gentle
man who are the chief persons in the
play.
Foxy Grandpa remained in New
York for the better part of the season,
and this year two companies will pre-
sent the piece. the original one. headed
BY Joseph Hart and Carrie DeMar. play
ing in the large cities. while another
organization will visit the smaller towns
and the far West
Washingtonians will have a chance
to laugh at the pranks OF grandpa and
his two youthful companions during C.
A. r. encampment week, when the stage
of the Columbia Theater will be turned
over to Mr.. Hart's company.

The DoWninqs Have Drifted Apart.

The fact that Robert Downing claims
to have won under pull in his race
for divorce against his former wife,
Eugenie Blair. and she puts In a counter
claim, alleging that she finished the
distance a good length in the van, will
be interesting news to the many friends
of this interesting couple.
William Raymond sill, in the New
York Telegraph" writes that Mr. Down
ing obtained divorce from Mrs. Down
ing in San Francisco, alleging desertion.
while Mrs. Downing was granted marital
freedom by an obliging judge in another
State at the same time. Both claim to
have captured the stakes and to be en-
titled to first money, and Just what the
result will be is puzzllng to their
friends. all of whom appear to have
taken sides. some for the lady, others
for the man.
A dozen years ago there was not, ac-
cording to all visible evidence, hap
pier married couple on the stage than
the big tragedisn and his Titan haired
and beautiful wife. AS Virginius, he
used to stab her to the heart with a
delicacy and tenderness that won him
the respect of all the communities In
which they played.
Their house parties at the very ex-
tensive Downing estate. near George
town. d. c., were models Of hospitality,
and the deep bass laughter OF Robert,
mingled with the girlish treble merrt
ment of Eugene. as they strolled among
the daisies, made many world-weary
man believe there was no such thing
as failure in matrimony.
But that was, ah. so long ago, and
now all is changed. He is in San
Francisco. running a dramatic school
and betrothed to another. while she is
going to play Camille and a few other
characters this coming season.

which will inaugurate the regular sea
son at the Columbia Theater, is in re-
hearsal in New York city, under the
supervision of the author and Robert
MeWade, the veteran actor. who will
also play one of the principal roles-a
sufficient guarantee that at least one
part Will be adequately interpreted.
Mr.. McWade staged Julia Arthur's
original production OF "a Lady OF Quail

of stage pictures that has ever been
shown in this country.

days considered itself unusually lucky
IL it succeeded in getting from town TO
town without an accompanying hotel
keeper or deputy sheriff. and as io-
salary, the players never dreamed Of
such a thing as regular pay day.
Kendall in those days was just as clever
a laugh creator as he is now, only he
had not been discovered" and his tai
ents we're wasted on the good people OF
the smaller cities of the country. for
"a Pair OF Kids" seldom ventured from
the beaten paths of the one-night
stands.
Now, however, the former vaudeville
monologist will be surrounded by cap
able company, under experienced man
agement, and with everything the most
exacting star might desire, and there is
very little doubt that THE Vinegar
Buyer" and its chief player will be one
of the successes of the coming season.

"The Strollers" Will Stroll Again.

THE Strollers,' which was seen in
Washington last year. with Francis
Wilson in the principal role, will tour
the country this year with Marguerite
Sylvia as the star.
'The Strollers" enjoyed a peculiar
distinction last year, as after Mr.. VIII
son left the organization to appear in
THE Toreador' he was succeeded by
John C. Henshaw. and the piece made
more money after Mr.. Wilson's defec-
tion than while he was at the head of
the company
1t did not appeal very strongly to the
theater patrons of the Capital city, but
in the West 1t was regarded as the
best thing in the musical line that had
come out of the East for many day
and was patronized accordingly.
Miss Sylvia will be recalled as the very
talented young Belgian who was seen
here in The Princess Chic" which or
ganization she deserted during the mid
die of the last theatrical year TO join
the Miss Bob White" company.
She will play the part done here by
Miss Irene Bentley, and George Boni-
face, jr., last season in vaudeville at
Chase's with Bertha Walizinger, will
play the part originated by Francis
Wilson.

through Mr.. Dalys brother-in-law, j. C..
Duff, formerly a well-known manager Of
comic opera enterprises.
Mr. Norris went to London to witness
the original production. not that he will
fashion his performance after that of
the English model. but to get an idea OF
the possibilities of the part, for Mr.
Norris has the very happy faculty Of
being able to discover laughs from lines
that would be passed unheeded by the
average comedian.
1t is expected that 1.-THE Country Girl"
will be seen in Washington and Balti-

the production at Dalys Theater.

Local Young Woman's Good Start.

Miss Eva Whitford, young WASH
ingtonian who appeared on several oc-
casions with the Bellows stock COM
pany last season, and invariably with
not a little success, has been entrusted
with a rather important part in the
musical comedy When Reuben Comes
to Town." which Morris and Hall will
send to the larger cities this season.
Miss Whitford is the possessor Of a
good voice. and as she has an attractive
personality and considerable dramatic
ability, everything is in her favor, and
she will undoubtedly please her local
friends and acquaintances by giving a
GOOD account OF herself in her first
effort with a musical entertainment.
