ROBINSON MAY
 HAVE BEEN POISONED.

Marion Robinson, who has for many years been the manager of the John w. Ferrill farm near Pickett lake, died very mysteriously Friday, hav- tug been taken suddenly sick that morning. The nature of his death pointed to the administering of poison and warranted an investigation.
 Coroner Harrison went down Satur- day morning with Dr. o. E. Jones, w.. 0. Wharton and others to hold an in- quest and determine the cause of death.
 Neighbors of the deceased claim that he was poisoned some time ago, but that the parties who planned his death failed to administer a sufficient dose and second attempt upon his life was thus made necessary.
 No further facts can be gwen until the finding of the post mortem exam ination and inquest are made, for while the story of the poisoning con meets with the crime the names of certain parties, these reports cannot yet be given authority.

Chase's-clOse of Opera Season.


With four more performances of the
Alice Nielsen comic opera, The Sing
ing Girl" the Chase season of polite
vaudeville and comic opera will be
brought TO close. In view of the fare
well period. the audiences this week
are more than usually demonstrative.
and the presentations have gone with a
degree Of applause and enthusiasm that
has stimulated the artists 10 their ut
most erdeavor.
It is the general opinion that Edna
Bronson IN the title role Is more than
charming. while the other members of
the supporting cast. particularly Mr..
Lett 5ir- Hirchberg, Mr.. Metcalf, and
Mr.. Tennery. give renditions OF their re.
spective parts in no way short OF the
original creators Of the different roles.
The sale OF seats for the last perform
ances has been very heavy and the last

the largest audience ever gathered with
in the walls Of the playhouse. The clos
ing scenes, with the friendly demonstra-
tiOns and farewells of the Chase patrons
TO the singers who have been the most
popular of the special casts submitted
during the season. will be worth view
ing. On the night OF the Fourth the per-
formance will not begin until O'Clock,
as the public is to be given the oppor-
tunity to witness the public fireworks

the part OF the members Of the company
20 have a rest
Mr.. Ormonde has had an especially
long season. Few players have attained
to the popularity which Mr.. Ormonde
claims During his long association with
local theatrical endoavors he has made
hundreds of friends and won many I'd
miTers who have followed his work With
an unnagging interest. Il is fitting chat

Ormonde should have a role so congenial

He has made perhaps the most favorable
impression OF his whole career In This
part and his Interpretation OF 1t is mark
ed By exceptional cleverness and lpprc-
citation.
One of the most pleasing features of
the Columbia season has been the ac-
quaintance made by the playgoers OF
Washington with Miss Aida Cortelyou.
Her earnest. intelligent playing ard her
attractive personality have combined TO
make her stay one of eminent satisfac-
tion. Miss Cortelyou's portrayal of Ca

praise of the Washington folk who have
