the Cosmos this week blends comedy and
pathos and is both dramatic and sensa-
tional. Yet full of quaint lines that keep
an audience laughing without losing the
sympathetic thread of his theme. Six
principals and several 'supes' handle
the roles effectively. Eddie Cain, the
old IriShman. whose native Wit Is more
than a match for the city sharks. is very
clever. Two special sets of scenery. rep

funny dialogue and grand opera bur.

united
The last two scenes, depicting a battle
between United States troops and the
Fltpinos. were particularly stirring. and
called forth no little enthusiasm. \ real

one OF tAe hest of the performance.
The plot Of the play is based on the

Columbia.

Those who saw 1.-THE Top o. tn
World" which ushered in the regular
season at the Columbia Theater last
night went home laughing, and many of
them were humming snatches of the
songs. That seems a good way to meas
ure the merit Of show.
1.-The Top o. tn World is a rollick-
ing mix-up of fun and music. In truth

scenes with generous hand. 1t has at
tractive scenery throughout. many dances
and multi-oOlored groupings of fantastic

There is no moment given over to an
planning what is coming next. All is full
of frivolity and life
The plot of the story has something to
do with handsome young fellow named
Shellman, an arctic explorer. and chap
named Morse who find themselves IN

Some one cuts the string, and thereafter
there is nothing but a succession of show
girls, soubrettes and comedy.
Fred Bailey and Ralph Austin. the

that delicious habit of breaking in on the
plot of the play at the most inopportune
moments. dressed in surprising costumes,
and singing songs which have endless
verses and marvellous possibilities. until
the audience is worked up to a pitch of
appreciation which ends in Mysteries.

Washington theatergoers. whos have had

trick it can be called, yesterday afternoon
and last evening at the Casino Theater

short time from ali sorts OF handouts

of an assassin during a gala performance

announced as 1912 pm. (3:12 p.m) New

alone was at his bedside.
Toward the end Stolypin suffered great

groaned necessarily and threw himself
about on the couch on which he lay.
Finally the heart action became weaker.
and as the body grew cold the premier
realized that death was overtaking him.

Relatives at Deathbed.

Half an hour before his death Stolypin
asked the doctors to turn him on his side.
He died peacefully, surrounded by several
of his relatives and state officials.
All hope for the premier's recovery was
abandoned yesterday morning. Saturday
night indications of peritonitis were not
ed. which became aggravated Sunday.
The bulletin issred by the attending ply
sicians early last evening declared that
the patients condition was hopeless. 1t
was signed by seven doctors. and read
Eight pm. NJ. StOlypin's condition
during the course Of the day became ag-
grayated. Toward evening the pulse was
imperceptable. Condition hopeless.
Premature reports of the premier's
death were current for hours before it
occurred. Several missions and EN-
bassies were misled by these reports, and
notified their governments. The author
tiles at first decided to conceal the news
of the premiers death until morning
fearing anti-Jewish outbreaks This was
found to be impossible, and, after the an
nouncement was made, all the attention
of the authorities was centered in the
protection of the Jews.
