A Matinee at the Normal

Anton Schott gave a very successful pro-
gram of the songs of his fatherland before
a crowded audience in the assembly hall of
the normal school yesterday afternoon.
Over 500 pupils of the normal and train.
ing schools were present, as we'll as large
contingent from the high school and num-
ber of outsiders. The concert was thor
oughly enjoyed, and Schott's singing of va
rious national anthems, finishing with the
Star Spangled Banner. evoked much en-
thusiasm and several floral tributes. The
tenor's most successful selections were
Schubert's Serenade and Wolfram's Intro
duction from Tannhaeuser, including the

case of Martin 3. Foster to be reset for ex-
animation, and the prisoner was mean
while released on his own recognizance.
This was done in consideration of the facts
in the case. Foster is somewhat weak
minded and erratic, and had, just before
the time of the assault on his wife, been
drinking heavily of whisky and quinine
for the grip. No one saw the affray but
their two little children, and Mrs. Foster
refused to prosecute the case, saying that
her husband always provided for her and
she was convinced that he was not in his
right mind at the time he shot at her.
There being no other witnesses, and a con-
viction being impossible in the event, Fos-
ter was released. The charge will, how
ever, be held over his head as guarantee
of future good conduct.

Fell Into a Zanja

An old soldier named Patrick Walsh was
found yesterday morning wallowinR
around in the zanja at Ninth and Alameda
streets. He was drunk and incapable of
caring for himself, so was taken to police
headquarters and booked for medical
treatment. The old man is over 60 years
of age and had evidently been sadly ne
elected. His body was filthy and he was
covered with vermin. After his dripping
clothes had been removed and he had been
given good hot bath he was wrapped in a
blanket to recuperate. If he has any rela-
tives they will be looked up and some pro-
vision made for his future.
