attracted to man hurrying along 18th
street in the direction of Florida avenue

had been any trouble. 1t was the Cfficer's
idea that the man was moving fast be-
cause of the cold weather. But a few Sec
onds afterward several colored men APP
peared, who We're in pursuit of the man
ahead. The blowing of the distress whis-
tie was soon followed by an increase in
the number of pursuers. but the man
whom 1t was claimed had fired the shot
esCap ped.
An investigation of the shooting was

voice easily filling the hall with its pleas
ing melody. Prof. Schubert's violin num-
hers prove him master of his instrument
and thorough musician. Mrs. Schubert's
technique, shading and almost masculine
touch left nothing to be desired In her
piano Eumber. The concerted pieces, the
opening quartet, as well as the selections
by the Ideal Mandolin Club, produced an
excellent impression. Mrs. Stetson's reel
tation was pleasing contrast to the must
cal part Of the program. The hall was
beautifully decorated by the ladies of the
Church. who assisted Mr.. Schubert, and q
moderately large audience rewarded the
performers efforts with well-merited, fire.
