BERKELEY.

The non-appearance of Governor Budd
at the annual inspection of the university
military department yesterday afternoon
was the source of many expressions of re-
gret. AT least 5000 people gathered TO view
the various maneuvers of the cadets, and
to hear the remarks of the university's
most distinguished graduate at the recep-
ton which was to be held after the close of
the military exercises.
All recitations for the afternoon were
suspended and from 1:30 to 4:30 o'clock
the campus was crowded with brass but
toned college students and interested spec
tators.
The day could not have been more favor
able for the execution of three hours hard

which they carried out the orders of the
day.
The exercises were as follows:

Miles, Twentieth Infantry, acting Inspector
General Of the Department of California; re-
view in honor OF Lieutenant-Colonel Miles
battalion drill, followed by company drill;
concert by the band of University Cadets; ar
tillery and signal drill; extended order and
sham battle.
The sham battle, as matter of course,
was the IuOSl interesting ana exciting part
of the days exercises. Several of the
regents including J. H. Halliday, J.
West Martin and Washington Bartlett
were present, and in the company of Presi-
dent kellogg witnessed the inspection.

ART INSTITUTE CONCERT.
First of the Spring Thursday Musicales
Under Henry Heyman.

Il lrsI OF the spring thursday muSIcaleS
Under Henry Heyman.
The first Thursday concert OF the spring
exhibition was given yesterday evening at
the Mark Hopkins Institute OF Art
These musicales are always popular with
people who like pleasant promenade con-
cert, where they can enjoy pictures and
music at the same time, and one of their
chief charms is that they partake almost
more of the nature of private reception
in some fashionable house than of the kind
of entertainment usually called prom
enade concert. Last night there was a
large attendance, all the rooms as well as
the large hall being more or less filled with
a constantly moving stream of visitors.
Professor Henry Heyman, who is al
ways so successful in inducing clever local
talent to give their services, was again to
the front as musical director. His posi-
ton was no sinecure, for, in addition to
gathering together the talent, he was also
down for three violin solos, all of which he
faithfully rendered. These were an
'Adagio Pathetique" by GODDARD, "De-
vantson Image by Hubay, and "Canto
d'Amor" by Almagro.
The other performers were Emilio Cru
ellis, who played couple of organ selec-
tons: Charles L. Parent Jr., who sang
deep in the Mine" and the "Brigandi s
Love Song" and Miss Daisy Cehn, who
sang an aria from "Ernani," as we'll as
Stark's setting of the words Thou Art so
Like Flower" with violin obligato.

Volunteers, and served for four years I'M
der General Steele in the army of the Ten
nessee.
1t is Mr. Lambert's boast that he was in
twenty engagements without receiving q
scratch, although on several occasions his
clothing was riddled by bullets.
The aged couple have had eleven chill
dren, CT whom five sons and three daugh-
tiers survive. Mrs. Lambert was born on
August %, 1927, and is quite vigorous. She
is proud of the fact that she has thirty
eight grandchildren and one great-grand-
child Many of them are in California,
and they will enliven the golden wedding
by their presence.
The Lamberts are well known in Berke-
ley, and it is quite likely that the wedding
will be largely attended.

Music and Gymnastics.

The German branch of the Y. M. G. A,
gave musical and gymnastic entertain.
ment last night in the auditorium of their
new building. Although the audience was
not very numerous, the programme was
warmly received and encored by those
present.
The concert opened with trio for man
dolins and guitar, played by Miss K. But
Ter, G.. Lachman and Il. Roberts. The
Misses Weymouth played a Swedish song
as a violin and pianoforte duet, and Miss
Mary M. Brown, very youthful per-
former, played pianoforte solos. Miss
Rosa Fully showed herself to be quite an
artist on the cimbals, and John A. Gantner
was the elocutionist of the evening.
A most humorous caricature was given
by seven or eight players on brass instr u
ments. of the kind of German band that
sometimes pervades European watering
places. The performers were so fearfully
and awfully out of tune, and evidently in
tended to be so, that the audience reared
with laughter, particularly when the ka-
pellmeister told them about the great re-
nown of his soloists.
Some clever exhibitions of Roman mat
work were given by III. L. Dietz and Ernest
Schenk, and III. l.. Dietz also performed
with illuminated clubs.
