DID WHAYNE
SUICIDE
Collection of a Sl50,0O0 Life In
surance Policy Depends on
the Verdict

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller.)
LOUISVILLE, KY Nov. 30.-A suit
that may develop into a second Hill
mon insurance case came up for trial
today before Judge Gordon. The suit
is that of the Fidelity Trust COMPANY,
as executor of Robert c. Whayhe,
against the Proyident Life Assurance
society of New York, to enforce the
collection of a policy for $4,000 held
by Mr.. Whayne.
Mr.. Whayne was found dead near
his home in Beechmont shortly after
he had started out hunting. The in
surance company contends that he
committed suicide, while his executor
maintains that his death was acct
dental. The deceased carried an unus-
ually large insurance on his life. Fol-
lowing the present suit will come the
trial of the case brought by Mr..
Whayne's executors against the Equit-
able Life Assurance company to en-
force the collection of a 100000 policy.

VALUE OF BRONZE GRASS
TO THE FARMERS OF THE WEST
Some Call 1t a Mortgage Litter, the Most Valu-
able APurpOse Hay and Pasture !.
Plant in the Northwest

farmers claim to have cut four tons
from an acre of grass. The proper
way for planting is to use seed drills.
If they can not be obtained then it may
be sown in any of the usual ways.
When once set it forms complete turf
and protects it's rootstocks from drouth
and cold. and lasts for years.
Get the Best
Bronze grass seed is for sale by all
prominent dealers. The best should be
secured regardless of cost. 1t sells for
about 1925 per bushel. If new land Is
to be occupied the grower may get
enough seed for a small area and
grow what he wants for future use.
In this way he will avoid the foul weeds
and other grass seeds that come from
the older fields where seed is grown.
Bronze will give fair returns from any
soil, but like other grasses it yields
better with a fertile bed
The growing of bronze grass is no
longer an experiment. It's fields are
extensive in almost every northwest
ern state. 1t has been known in Eu-
rope for over 100 years. The creeping
rootstocks made the agriculturists
think 1t possessed no great value ex-
cept as soil binder. In the past few
years they have changed their minds
sally planted in all districts where the
rains are light or there is danger of
drouths.

COL. JOHN Z LANES SPEECH.
Bravery Carried Him From Corporal to the
Command of the Famous Regiment.

To the Editor: AS one of the few of
his command who is yet on this side of
the river, allow me to thank the News
and Observer for the publication of Col.
j. R. Lanes admirable address at Get
tysburg. 1t is a valuable paper, giving
as it does the best description of the bat
tie have seen in print. Much credit is
due Col. Lane for the accurate account
he gives OF the part his Regiment took in
that desperate struggle. The charge
across the field, crossing WiIloughbys
muddy run and the CHASTITY scenes oil
blood and death in McPherson's woods
could hardly have been photographed more
true to life than he describes. But this
has always been the way We have known
the Colonel to do things. From a corpor-
ais place in Company G, when it was
first organized, he went by personal merit
to the command of the Regiment. In
most of the hard fought battles in which
the command was engaged from New
Bern to Appomattox, he was true TO the
flag and found at the front May he yet
live long to honor and bless the Old North
State. Very respectfully.

RALEIGH WILL IMPROVE
Increased Capacity of the Academy of
Music Stage Means That Larger
Class of Scenic Shows Will
Appear in This City.

That Raleigh is to have some excellent
theatrical attractions this season is not
to be doubted.
The mere matter of charging the stage
at the Academy of Music means much, for
this insures the presence of companies car
r3ing scenery of special productions OF
sven size that the present arrangements
were simply out OF tine question when it
came to the work of properly staging
these plays.
This thing of small stage hurt mary
productions here last year. The compa-
MES would come with tile scenery. It
could not be put ON, and the stage man
ayers would pull out hair by the roots ard
gToan in anguish. Many productions went
on in q half and half style. but now
Manager Baker promises that he will have
stage that viii fit the big scenic plays
and win also put on some elaborate new
scenery for stock use.
While the circuit of theatres through
out the South are closed up. or at best
are having a light run of lighter yaude-
vile. New York is having its share of
foothght attractions. With twenty-five or
more attractions nightly the New Yorker
and his visiting friend manages to get
along. In the menu there are such things
as Prince of Pilsen," THE Telephone
Girl. - '"rhe Runaways.' "The Blonde in
Black" Wizard of o. Venice in New
York. 1.-The Earl of Pawtucket." Sultan
OF Sula" and an abundance of light opera.
A large poster in front of the American
Theatre, New York, which reads, THE
Evil Men Do has been attracting much
attention. As a matter of fact it is part
OF the advertising matter of the new
Theodore Kremer play that Sullivan, Har-
ris and Woods will put on for run early
in September, and it is carefully read by
every woman who passes along.
One day recently a miGdle-aged woman
stopped and read the placard very
thoughtfully. She then remarked to her
companion:
There is play that ought to have a
long rum
ssWhy is that" queried her friend
tWell, if that drama undertakes to show
all the evils that men do. it will take
from the first of September to the middle
OF next May for the play to run It's

Which goes to show that there is much
in a name, even if the late William
Shakespeare thought differently.
