AN ORGANISMS FALL.
Two Charges of ENLIGHTENMENT Made
Against II. I. Chambers

Harry I. Chambers. young and hand
some scion of an old English family, lies
in the City Prison charged with embezzle-
ment. There is nothing novel In the story
Of his downfall. 1t is the old narrative of
drink, folly and crime.
Several years ago Chambers was the
organ!st Of fashionable church at Knights
bridge, suburb Of London. Three years ago
he was employed as organist by the Advent
Church in East Oakland. While in the
Athens Of the Pacific he became dissolute
lost his position, and came over the bay to
make his living as piano-tuner and saloon
musician.
A few months ago he went tc Stockton
and sold watch, valued at S45, that had
been entrusted to him. for S4 He was ar
rested for this offense late yesterday after
noon and would have been sent to the
Slough City for trial had not the police
learned that he had been guilty Of numer-
Gus misdemeanors in this city.
They ascertained that some time ago he
took piano valued at SIS from Mr.. Moons
house on Langton street, promising to tune
ana return 1t in a few days. When the
owner of the instrument became weary of
waiting for its return he searched for
Chambers, but found him not. He found
the piano in secondhand store on Mission
street, where it had been sold by the enter
prising tuner for $40.

The entire epic is a really clever bit of
