When near the mouth of Russian River

him and asked whether he had seen a
schooner lying uff shore. lie had not
seen schooner, but walked along with the
two men until he deserted in the distance
the outlines of small two-masted
schooner. The men bad little TO say. but
seemed much pleased at the sight of the
vessel.
He deseribedi one man as large, with
black mustache. The other was below
medium height and had a smooth face.
After being on shore a short lime small
boat came from the schooner The sailors
in the boat seemed to know the two men
on horseback waiting for them. On II
being learned that Adams was a seaman,
one of the men in the boat asked him to go
aboard and help him hoist anchor.
He Gid so and would have been willing
to ship with the vessel and the captain
would like to have had him, but the two
men objected. He asked the captain if he
was bound for San Francisco, but the for
mer said no. The name Of the schooner,
he thinks, is Ida May.
Adams knew nothing Of tie escapes at
the lime, though he is now certain the
men he saw were Bruggy and Espey.

The performers at the Mollenhauer concert
in Metropolitan Hall last evening were Bernard
Mollenbauer, assisted by three local singers

did hard evenings work, Notwithstanding,
both Of his selections being long and arduous.

Hubay, was fairly .eeming with difficulties, s,
which the violin virtuOS0 seemed to take a de-

An enthusiastic recall greeted the violinfst' @
retirement at The end of the fantasle, to which
Mr.. Mollenhauer responded by again ap-
ment that seemed to wbet the taste of his hear
ers for more. As nothing would satisfy the m
but third solo the vionist submitted and
gave another exhibition of wonderfully rapid
Dowing In weird but effective little compost
tion.
The last number on the programme was
"Fairy Tales" by Mollenhauer, which, in its
opening portion, seemed to be more execution
than music, but as IL advanced IL gained In
melody and eliminated In an air which wa s
both pathetic and pretty.
Signor Martinez, IN addition to playing the
Accomplishments, executed LisZt's "Rhapsodie
No. IL" and ballad by Schulhoff

.Valse des Nations" and as an encore Trotere's

loud and frequent. The programme opened
with selections from Gounod's Faust" given

moderate power. When she tried TO force loud
