hybrids. Among its varieties for.
sythia prinulina is especially worthy
OF note because Of the clear pale
yellow of its flowers, beautiful prim.

the golden yellow OF the type, but
without a tinge of green. One plant
with these light yellow flowers in a
mass planting of golden yellow will
create q distinct color note. adding
tremendously to the interest of the

Forsythia viridissima. the green
Stoned forSythia, is the last to bloom,
coming into flower sometimes week

flowers OF slightly greeniSh hue are
not as effective as those of the other

Detective Was Waiting in Next Room
When Regina Flory Committed Suicide

was nothing available at the time,
asked Sir Alfred's advice about an
offer she said she had received from
the Shuberts to play in America for
81 800 weekly.
Sir Alfred replied that he thought
the role she described would suit her
admirably
Sir Alfred. describing the scene on
the stand today, said there was lull
at this point in the conversation. He
had been watching her finger her
handbag, and was somewhat nervous
with the thoughts of the report con-
corning her carrying pistol. Then,
without warning, she suddenly pulled
out the weapon and shot herself
Previously, Max Viterbo. director of
the Cigae Theater, Paris, testified
that she was neurasthenic and for a
long time used drugs, but had de-
creased the doses in an effort to break
herself of the habit. She had told
him the last time he saw her that she
intended to take her life.
He had heard she had a love affair
in Paris recently with a dramatic au-
thor-a married man. She had not
had any dispute with this friend but
they had both found it difficult to
break off the affair. The author fol-
lowed her to London when she came
here recently.
There was nothing in the testimony
to indicate that this affair was con-
sidered to have had an unbalancing
effect upon the actress.

EMERGENCY EXISTS
Health Department Funds, Nearly
Depleted, Ordered Bolstered
Up at Once.

With the Health Departments fund
for the prevention of the spread Of
disease almost exhausted. due to an
alarming increase in the number of
contagious diseases, the District Com
missioners declared today that an
emergency existed, and authorized the
department to use $500 of the emer-
gency funds appropriation.
Health Officer William G. Fowler
submitted statistical report to the
Commissioners showing that there
had been 1890 cases of contagious
Diseases in the District between July
/, 1925, and June Is this year, and
compared with 1884 cases in the cor
responding period OF the preceding
year. The largest increases were
shown in measles. pneumonia, whoop-
ing cough and diphtheria.
According to DR.. Fowler's report,
there remained in the contagious dis
ease fund of the Health Department
$1,137.1S. which is not sufficient to pay
basic salaries of the employees for a
half month. The department also, he
said, is confronted with unpaid gas,
electric light. ice. laundry and horse
shoeing bills.

LONDON, June %. - When Mile.
Regina Flory. beautiful French act
ress and dancer, shot herself while
talking with Director Sir Alfred Butt
in his Office in the Drury Lane The
alter last Thursday night, French
detective who had followed her from
Paris was waiting In the next room
to guard against just such a tragedy.
This was brought out today at the
coroner's inquest, which. after SEN
sational disclosures regarding the
dead star, resulted in a verdict of
suicide while of unsound mind.
Mile Flory. who is said to have
been neurasthenic and at one time
addicted to morphine, had some time
before her death threatened suicide,
and a detective, Francois Semaine,
had been detailed to watch her. She
had no trouble with Sir Alfred during
their interview. and the fatal shot
came without warning.
Semaine rushed into the room just
in time to catch the actress as she
fell. Sir Alfred, the detective testi-
fed. sat in his chair, looking stupe-
fed and unable to realize what had
happened.
Mile. Flory, who had gone to see
the director to ask him for an en-
gagement in England. was beautiful
ly gowned and bejeweled when she
took her life.
The detective said he had informed
Sir Alfred that Mile. Flory had a
pistol when she left Paris and that
she had threatened suicide. How
ever. as the customs officials found
no weapon upon her on her arrival
in England, the theatrical manager
thought little of the report.
Nevertheless the detective arranged
with Sir Alfred to be in the next room
during the interview. When Mile.
Flory entered the directors office Sc
maine took UP position behind the
door of the adjoining room, prepared
to rush In II she became excited.
