 Neither side denies Mrs. Cleminson was poisoned. In fact, both sides confirm it. But while the police as sert that the poison was given by the woman's husband, C1enninson declares that she took it herself. Cleminson's S contradictory stories have injured his case. Up to date he has explained his wife's death in the following ways:
 Chloroformed by burglars; suicide, because she believed him unfaithful; !; suicide because he had accused her of unfaithfulness; died from poison given her by a third party or parties.
 The first story he has repudiated, ex- blaming that he told it to save the honor of his wife and children. To- day the police renewed their efforts to find one or both of C1eminson's al- legged '-affinities." In this, the doctor refused absolutely to help them.

A. folks and leading church men decided that President Taft might have been right when he walked out of the Washington theatre during the production of the new Charles Rich man comedy drama. So they called on the manager of the Hyperion thea tre to pluck out certain frisky dialogue and induce May Mckenzie to put less tobasco in her dance As it was the last night, the Richman manager could see no reason why he should make any changes. As to the Taft incident it is now said that the President and Secretary Knox had business else where other than the theatre and their new found roles of drama came about wholly involuntarily.

MAY BIG MONTH
 FOR AMBULANCE
Responded to 92 Calls, the Record for One Month, on 70 Gallons of GasOlene.

In May the ambulance broke all rec ords for the department by making 92 runs in the 31 days. For ten years there has not been a July which equal led this record, although the Glorious Fourth has always sweiled the July ambulance record. Seventy gallons of gasoline were used. The indications are that the citizens are putting con- fidence into the new vehicle and are sending for it because they know it will make good time.
 The ambulance is kept in a garage next door to the department headquar- ters and no time is lost in getting away. The strongest feature of the ambulance is that it is not tired after running two miles, and is ready to make another run at once.

 The latter play is a wonderful em- bodirnent of the cakes and ale spirit of Merrie England of Chaucer's time and in MT. MacKaye's comedy there live again the members of the immort- al company who wended their spritely way from London down to Canterbury so many years ago. There is the Wife of Bath, the gentle Prioress, Chaucer himself as the arch-wayferer of all and the mischievous F'riar Huberd who is never so happy as when he has suc- ceeded in getting someone else in hot water.
 MT. Charles Douville Coburn, the "Orlando" of "As You Like It. and the love-sick Duke of Twelfth Night creates the part of "Chaucer" and Miss Ivah Wills lays aside the hunting dress of .'Rosalind'' and the sword of '@Viola'' to don the white robes of the sweet-faced Prioress. Eva Vincent has scored a triumph everywhere as the Wife of Bath, and the finished per formance of Augustine Duncan as the Friar adds another to his notable char acter interpretations others being .'Touchstone' and ''Malvolio.'
