Berkeley schools.
Miss Nellie Trowbridge, daughter OF James
Trowbridge, died Monday afternoon after an
illness of three months.
Berkeley is suffering from the overflow of the
fakirs. Tuesday two young fellows went about
town with a letter purporting to be from DIR. +.
FL. Payne, one of the towns physicians, in
which the young men were recommended to
charitable people. 1t was found later that Dr.
Payne knew nothing of the letter. The fellows
secured a small amount OF money.

deem their good name, recently injured by their

QUAIL SHOOTING.
The Season in Marin County Will
Not Close Until March.

A few days ago THE CALL stated that the
quaIl.shoOttng season 10 Marin County would
terminate to-day, the 1st Of February. The
Supervisors OF Marin County passed local or.
dinance TO that effect at the opening OF the sea-
son at the request of the sportsmen. who were
OF the opinion that the game birds were being
exterminaied very rapidly. A month or so age
a committee from the Country Club waited upOn
the Supervisors OF Marin County and asked
them, as a special favor to amend the local law
so that quail can be shot In the county until
the 1st day of March. at which time the State
law protecting quail will come into effect.
Ii Is said by a prominent member of the
Country Club that the good fathers Of Marin
have compiled with the request and so ordained
that the season for quail shooting in Marin
County would not close until March / Of this
year. The news will. no doubt, be welcomed
by spoTtsmen who have not had many success
full shoots this season, owing. principally to the
inclemency of the weather. which was the rea-
son assigned by sportsmen for the wild and un.
settled nature of the birds.

WAGNER AND THE DRAMA.
The Highest Expression of .rhouRI
Which Lie Too Deep For Human Words

The Highest Expression of 'srhousIits
which Lie Too Deep For Human Words"
1t Is not essential to the trre disciple Of
the Wagner,an drama that he should
know the science, texture or structure OF
the music. No call Ia made upon him foi
this special knowledge, and it will not
enable him better to understand tho traq.
edy or passion presented to him, though IL
may add to his admiration for the genius
Of the author. At first the experienced
musician may even find himself at dis.
advantage at Baireuth, as his attention
may easily be too much occupied with the
form, and the first impression Of the
whole may be somewhat weakened by the
study Of the detail.
To some people, who look exclusively
for pleasure and recreation in music, the
mere mention Of Wagner's name calls up
simply recollections of clashing instru.
ments and loud sounding trumpets-use
less noise, as they are pleased to call It,
Nevertheless, from purely musical point
OF view, the beauties and perfcctions of
Wagners composition are thoroughly we'll
appreciated by the concert going public,
and IL Is unnecessary to dwell on these
qualities which havo been fully recognized
for some time past. But il is not vet SO

shines like beacon, leading the German
art student to truer apprehension Of ma
tional life and character and of the infiu-
ence which art should have In molding the
future destiny of the race
1t Is the new musical drama which
Wagner has created which Is to be the
highest expression Of Thoughts which lie
too deep for human words and which
shall show the light that never was on
sea or land" Those whose chief delight
lies in the ideal rendering of beautiful
music alone may perhaps be dissatisfied
by finding everything here subordinated
to the dramatic conception. The true in
depreciation of the drama must be sought
In the greatest possible perfection Of the
whole through the individual parts, and
slight failings in the scenic effects and
histrionic action or vocal and musical
shortcomings are scarcely perceived by any
one who is wholly absorbed In the reve-
lations made to them by performances of
such marvellous power.-Nineteenth Cen.

ANOTHER DEF AULTER
A New York Bank Clerk Con-
Izzs.4 fesses His Guilt.
STOLE THIRTYTHoUsAE ND DOLLARS

Edward n. Carter, Trsnsfer Clerk OF tho
National Bank Of Commdrce, HAD Been
I'm the Employ of the Institution for
Twsnty-nine Years.
NEW YoRK, Deo 27.-Edward r. Car
Ter, transfer and coupon clerk of the Ma
tionai Bank of Commerce. ut 30 Nassau
street, was arrested yesterday afternoon as
= defaulter. Carter is charged with ap-
proprlating $50, 900 of the banks money,
and, 1t is said, confessed his guilt. He is
"A years Of age, and lived with his wife and
two children, u daughter 2e years of ago
and son 10 years old, In Brooklyn. For
twenty mine years Carter hhd been in the
employ Of the bank. According to bhe
story he told to the police he began his
populations twenty years ago, at first only
taking small sums. He would say very
little about himself to the police, and
maintained silence as to what induced him
to take the money and as 10 what he did
with ID. With the bank officials he was
not 80 reticent, as q statement made by
w. w. Sherman, president of the bank,
shows This statement Is as follows:
"The National Bank of Commerce has
sustained defalcation by Its transfer and
coupon clerk, Edward R. Garter, amount
ing to $4,000. Carter was twenty nine
years in the bank, and began as q messon-
ger boy, being promoted from time to time
till he reached his present position. Among
his other duties he was required to receive
and pay coupons on maturing or called
bonds. On comparing balance yesterday
the officers discovered discrepancy of
some SIS, 900, which he accounted for by
claiming to have paid in error that amount
OF bonds before their maturity. When
asked to produce the bonds he was unable
10 do 80, and admitted his guilt.
1T is not learned that he speculated or
tndulged in any vices. He claimed to have
used the money in his living expenses.
The loss, of course, is not 4 serious one for
the bank, which has capital Of 81, 900 900
and surplus and undivided profit Of 49,
So0,000, but the defalcation is none the less
distressing, US Carter had the conf
denoe of all who came ia contact with
HIM"
Beyond this official statement no of
hcer of tho bank would say anything
about the matter.
