A DELIGHTFUL CONCERT.
Given BY Tho knslssl Quartet In The Eloss Large
Audianc, Attended.

The first concert of the series OF three
to be given i'm Providence this season
by the Kneisel quartet, was given last
evening at the Eloise. and a large and
fashionable audience assembled 10
greet che distinguished musicians. The
playing of the quartet has always
been we'll nigh perfect. but 1t seems
to be even better than ever before this
stiasQp, which is mainly due tn the IN
PRODUCTION of a new player at the sec
ond violin desk. Mr.. Karl Ondricek, in
place of Mr.. Otto Roth.
The program was as follows: Quar-
tet I'm B-fiat major, Op. Is, No. o, bee
thoven. Allegro con brio, Adagio ma
non troppo. Scherzo (Allegro), La Ma
liconiu (Adagio-Alegretto quasi Ale
gro); Air for violin. Bach with
string accompanimen). Mr.. Franz
Kneisel: quartet in A-major, Borodine,
observation-disclosures. Andante con moto.
Scherzo (Prestissimo), Andante-Alle-
gro risoluto. Between the two concert
ed numbers Mr.. Franz Knsisel gave
fine rendering of the Wilhelmj arrange
ment OF the Bach air for violin with

PELICAN HEADQUARTERS.

Pelican Bend in the Missouri river
near st. Charles, Mo-, is the scene OF a
great annual gathering OF nelicans
There is a big fiat bar in the river there
which has endured far beyond the usu-
al span OF bars existence I'm the
treacherous, shifting current of the
Missouri. This bar is the seml-annual
stopping place OF vast focks OF peu
cans that migrate from south In north
in the spring am from north to south
in the fall, says the st. Louis Republi-
can.
Persons who have observed their
habits claim that they invariably ar
rive at Pelican send on September 4
and remain until cold weather sends
them souun.
The pelican is not an attractive bird
He offenus both the eye and the nose.
But he is Commentary regular i'm his
habits. The parent birds catch fish.
and, after eating their fill. deposit the
others In their pouches under their bills
and carry them 10 their young. These
pouches will hold from three 10 eight
pounds of fish. They are elastic. and
when distended TO their utmost nearly
touch the ground When empty the
pouch lies close up under the big bill
and is merely a mass Of wrinkles. IL
is this pouch that gives the pelican his
characteristic and disagreeable odor
caused by particles OF decaying fish.
The pelican legs are short and strong
and its feet have large webs. 1t is not
a fast swimmer nor rapid flyer. but
ii is practically tireless i'm both air and
water. on land IL is awkward and un-
wieldy. Its feathers are pure white,
except for a fluffy tuft Of brown plum
age that is seen on the top OF the head
for about six weeks i'm the early sum-
mep. This tuft disappears in August
and leaves a pimply bald pate that is
not pleasant TO view. AT first the skin
is red. then pink then a straw color.
BY November ! the skin on the head
hardens into a horny crest. which
grows as the winter progresses until by
the time the bird arrives at it's
breeding place i'm che northwest IL is SO
prominent that il is called the center
board" because OF its resemblance 10
the center-board Of a sailboat. When
properly cured the pelican skins and
plumage are largely used i'm women's
garments and hats.

AFTER MANY DAYS.
Inquest Into the Dsath Of Leonar.
dazzo Has Been Held.


Coroner Eugene III. Lincoln i'm a re-
port fiied today with the clerk OF the
common pleas division of the supreme
court on an inquest held by him on the
death OF Girardo Leonardazzio, who
d.ed at the Rhode Island Hospital, Sep
tember i. 1898. finds that Leonardazzio
came TO his death from perBtonitis re-
sulting from wounds in the intestines
caused by Knife in the hands of one
Michael Santomanzo. No other person
or persons Whatsoever is held respon-
sible for the death
Dr. Palmer one OF the medical ex-
aminers notified Mr.. Lincoln on Nov.
Z. 1899, to hold the inquest.
In his report Coroner Lincoln says,
some OF the facts i'm connection with
the case are peculiar. II will be observ-
ed that the notice for me whereby /
was enabled to hold the inquest was
not given me until about "a year subse-
quent TO the death, the man having
died on the first OF September 1888.
therefore many OF the witnesses had
left the cfty, and IL was with difficulty
that those | had could be obtained.
Again there seems to be some confu-
sion as TO the name of the deceased.
"On 2sth of Angus. 1898. just after
the deceased was stabbed, | took his
dying statement, which accompanies
this report and at that time the wound
ed man said his name was Girardo
Narduzzo. His name appears in the no
tee 10 me from the medical examiner as
Geraldo Leonardozzi. The witnesses
say the name is Girardo Leonardozzi
and think the identity is well estab-
lished by t-> testimony irress active of
an absolutely strict spelling Of the
name"
In the dying statement Of the victim
said he and seven or eight persons got
together in honor of the Italian holiday
and they agreed TO go To the house OF
Cipulla on Lilly street. IL was the in
tention 10 have a feast, but the victim
says row began on the street and he
was cut by man named Michael,
whost last name he did not know. In
trying 10 separate two men engaged
IN the row, one of whom was hickman
ed the Sausage" Leonardozzi say>|he
was cut with a knife.
