arranged and conducted by Mrs. Helen ].
Hough Of Los Angeles. The procession
formed at the residences Of Mrs. Hough
on Croker avenue, marching in line from
thence to the s. P. depot, where thay
boarded the a. m. train. Arriving at tie
home station they were met by an escort
Of soldiers and the home band and con-
Quoted to the new library. while the veter-
ans In blue fell in line on the parade
grounds. Opening ranks, the Los Angeles
procession passed between, vending its
way to the cemetery on the hillside, while
the band, with muffied drums, played that
saddest Of strains, 1.-THE Dead March"

the veterans, concluding with the volley of
musketry, the following exercises were

'Abenlied' was a dream of pianoism. His
over 'appassionata' proved a graceful, i'm
pressive thought, much in the style of
Bizet, full of warmth and feeling. 1t was
cordially appreciated. Guirauds 'Rondo
Caprice was SO bewtchng that to the ap-
plause Ysaye granted Sarasate's 'Gypses'
as an encore, for which he got a big
bouquet.
1.-THE titantic skill of Ysaye is we'll known
and he seemed at his very best, but the
wonder of the evening was the superb, al
most supernatural perfection Of the young
stranger, Gerardy's, playing, upon the
cello. 1t called forth no end of enthusi-
astic admiration, not to say amazement.
Though so very young, he scarcely seems to
have any Improvement to achieve.
"He played De Swerts cello concerto in
G major, a very difficult composition, in
which staccato passages and double stops
were abundant but surmounted with skill
almost superhuman. No flaw or slip could
be detected. His other numbers were an
aria by Bach, usually played by violinists
upon the G string. He gave it with MASTER
y dignity and impressiveness. 1t was fol-
lowed by Peppers 'Tarantelle,' a marvel
Of deicacy and dignity. After many recalls
he played Chopin's E-fiat Nocturne with
infinite grace and feeling"
Gerardy made very distinct hit, and
we'll deserves to be styled, even at this
early stage of his career, the "Paganini of
the cello" We surely have never heard his
equal. He plays his noble instrument with
all the agility of a violinist, and it being a
Stradivarius, its tones are as pure and soul
searching as instrumental music possibly
can be. Too great praise cannot be given
him. Mr.. Lachaume's exquisite accom-
paniments also deserve acknowledgment.
A second concert occurs tonight.

Turin is proud of its new organ, which
local papers claim to be the finest in Italy,
IL not in the world. 1t Is certainly gigan-
tic, taking up 1888 square metres, with
front of nearly forty yards. There are 1853
pipes, and the motive power is supplied
by sixteen bellows worked by gas. The
organ was built in Turin, and before being

rance of the average critic) to notice the
persistence with which the notion ID upheld
that Lisztism in music means merely TECH
nique. Liszt was, indeed, the greatest mas
ter Of technique that ever lived, but he also
was the greatest master Of expression. His
motto, In fact, was that technical perfec-

Herr Zumpe, who will probably be Anton

Krantz in Trouble

Frederick Krantz. believed by the police,
to be a deserter from the Seventh regiment,
California volunteers, Is held at the Oak
land city prison on a charge of robbery. In
company with Noble Davis. Krantz was
taken into custody at Seventh and Broad
way on Thursday night. Krantz was
dressed in the uniform of a National
guardsman. Both men were identified by
a peddler named Jones as the men who, un-
der the guise of officers, held him up on San
Pablo avenue early in the evening and re-
iieved him of his spare cash. They ac-
cused Jones of being a dealer in lottery
tickets, and threatened to arrest him If coin
was not forthcoming. Krantz Is about
thirty years old. He admitted to Detective
Hodgkins that he came north as member
of Company L, Seventh regiment, but
claims that he decided not to go to the front
when enrolment time came. From San
Francisco he started for his home in South
ern California, but got no further than this
city.

were wanted, including two cooks, caused
quite an excitement in National Guard cir
cles. The full significance of the order is
that each company of the regiment In
San Francisco is to be made up to its full
strength of 1903 men in place Of the 81 which
were taken from here when the regiment
was mustered into service. The captains
of the various companies are disposed to
give present members of the regiment the
preference, which will make room for
about 300 recruits from this section. 1t is
a matter which the officers here have moth
ing to do with further than recommends
tory power.
Yesterday Captain Langworthy Of Com
pany c telegraphed to the same effect say
ing that twenty-five men could be sent at
once. 1t is expected that there will be no
difficulty about supplying the full quota
from this city, as most of the recruits in
the regiment are only too eager to have u
chance to summer in the Philippines and
pot Spaniards.

Bosworth in the San Francisco Examiner
says of Ysaye, Gerardy and Lachaume at
their recent appearance in that city:
ut was a gathering of the musical elite
that greeted Ysaye, Gerardy and Lach-
aume when they stepped out upon the Bald
win stage last night. The greeting was
|correspondingly hearty before they began
Schumann's beautiful trio in f major, the
animated allegro of which served to show
what masters of their respective instru-
ments were before us. But when 'andante'
was reached the exquisite purity of sone
and eloquence of phraslng was instantly
evident; for the violin and cello answered
each other with an individuality that per-
mitted deliberate contrast, and the latter
showed how the rare genius of young
Gerardy could master and completely elm
mate every flaw from the tone of the larger
viol. Hearty recognition of this perfect
playing burst forth at Its close.
1.-THE succeeding scherzando was short
and sweet, but very unique and original.
1.-THE great Belgian next appeared playing
Vieuxtemps' Fourth Concerto in d minor.
Standing like statue of Beethoven during
the long, graceful introduction he began by
drawing a long, slender ray of tone from
his e string as clear and 1nsinuating as a
sunbeam. The cadenza which ends the first
movement was an astonishing tour-de-
force.
1.-THE 'adagio religioso' which followed
was celestial as an angels prayer. The
listener was carried to the very zenith upon
its last expiring sigh. The finale was
full of great difficulty, octaves and tenths.
Much original and creative genius was
shown in its Interpretation. Many recalls
followed.

ONLY MANsLAUaHTER
Mary Garcia Is More Fortunat Than
Her Indian Paramour

The jury in the case of Mary Garcia yes
terday morning about 10 o'clock, after hav-
ing been out seventeen hours, brought in a
verdict finding her guilty of manslaughter.
Judge Allen set next Thursday as the
day for sentence. This verdict was again
a compromise one, and shows once more
that woman may do her worst and es-
cape the full punishment which she de-
serves. There was not the first element
Of manslaughter In the crime for which
Pedro was properly sent up for life and
Mary let off with verdict which entails
at the most ten years in the penitentiary
less credits for good conduct while felon.
On the contrary, the evidence which was
piled UP against the female prisoner would
have insured capital punishment anywhere
else. Judge Smith will undoubtedly give
her the full benefit Of the law, and Mary
Garcia will make good her promise to
Pete that If he went to the penitentiary
she, too, would go there.

tered by the fire department Superintend-
ent Mulholland of the Water company ex-
plains that he is of the opinion that there
was no real shortage; that any apparent
dimlnution of supply must have come from
bursting hose. There is an eight-inch
main on Los Angeles street, fed by mains
of the same size coming down each inter-
secting street from the 22-inch pipe on Main
street, thus giving plenty of water. Be-
sides, the pressure on the mains during the
fire did not vary two pounds, indicating a
constant and plentiful supply.
