In stock at the Academy, beginning
Monday, May t;. it had been planned
to begin the ensau -incut next Monday,
but owing to previous bookings the
Academy could ivt be secured until de?
lator date.
However. Miss La Verne, who is bj
no means a stranger tu Richmond, u
no idler, and rather than wait even
?or n minute, Blic determined to put oi?
lier opening iierformnnco at tho Bijou
next Monday night. For the- first w:ek
Miss LaVi rn< lias chosen a play of bet
own making. "Anne- Boyd," in which
rlie has scored a distinct suecesi; ur.de:

Standing on the stage of th.? Acad- j
on;y yesterday afternoon, snrro.?r.d?d j
by her company, in the iirst throes oi
rehearsal, Miss LaVerne told something
of her plans. "You ses," she said. "I |
just had to come bnck to Richmond.!
One never knows wliat it Is that at-;
tracts one or holds one to a certain
place. On the road the impressions one;
gets are- so kaleidoscopic, the changOS'
so rapid, the opportunities for studying]
the people and local conditions so few,I
that the average actor rarely knowB
?what city he is in unless something
out of the ordinary happens to biiiig,

"To me Richmond his meant so much.,

very dear people here, have- met with so;
much succ;ss here and have had my

When I was here with Larry Giften ? I
you know Mr. Giften, of course?l llrsi I
began to know all of tluse delightful I
P< ople, and I have never spent a inor? I
3>lea?ant summer anywhere. It was j
then that I made up my mind that if 1 j
ever got the chanc? I was coming back!
with a company of mi" own.
When Mr. Wells suggested a stock

took my breath away. Here was glvis

something toward which I had been |
striving, oh, for a number of years
Without undue- haste?I didn't want!

by, of Urlstol, counsel foi Frlel Allan.
As all the cases arc necessarily large-]
ly similar, thesd lawyers are colluii-.
orating;, und all, to some extent, win'
represent each prisoner.
The defense is here ready for trial,
it will be distinctly disclaimed, says
Mr. Willis, that Flojd Allen killed any
one. The contention will be that he
urose to hl? feet in tin. courtroom to
exhibit some papers bearing upon the
application just made by his attorn, ys
for a new trial. Then, he will syear, j
come one shot him and he fell to Hie
door.
Arising, lie dre-w a revolver and
tiled several times. Bach shot, ac?
cording 10 his attorneys, will be ac?
counted for, since It wilt be said that
Floyd remained perfectly cool, and
knew Jubt what he was doing
throughout the trouble. For Ylcior
Allen, Hie plea of not guilty will be
made. It will be claimed that be la
entirely Innocent, was unarmed, and
deplored the shooting. Claude Swan?
sea Allen admits that In; shot at
Clerk Dexter Goad. Asked why he
tired, he said, "1 saw them shooting
ul pap." In his cod c Hits reason
seemed all-sufficient.
Excitement ami the elan-feeling
will be the defense in Frlel Allen's
OSSe, and It will also be asserted that
he did not succeed In killing any one.
B'.dna Kd wards Is to set for'h the
plea that he did not fire, while Bird
Marion will say he was not .armed.
So it Is that If all the prisoners are to
be believed, no ono of Ilium Is re- i
Bponstble for a lite. This would put
ull the live murders on the two men,
who are not Just at present in posi?
tion to come into court and deny also j
that their shots were fatal.
A venire for the- trial Jury has been
drawn nnd summoned to be- present
to-morrow. Two men were drawn
from the Fancy Cap district. In the
Allen country, but were among the
four stricken off, according to law, by
Acting -Sheriff Edwards. None Is
