Next Time

The next time that Tom Karl, the
famous tenor of "Bostonian" fame,
comes to Los Angeles he will carry
a bodyguard and will be better posted
on the laws than he was yesterday.
Thus he will save himself several bad
hours.
Mr.. Karl, who is now domiciled in
Southern California, came over from
Pasadena yesterday afternoon with a
friend, to call on some people in South
Flower street. AS they were leaving
the house, man stepped up to the
pair and rather roughly asked:
Your names, gentlemen"
"What business is it of yourS?" asked
Mr.. Karl, Indignantly.
The stranger flashed star and in
formed the two that they were thereat
and thereby drawn on the coroner's S
jury, to sit in the case of E. j. Pass
more, killed by a Los Angeles-Pacific
trolley car on the Sixteenth street right
of way.
But you can't take us, you know"
responded the singer, 1--WE don't live
here; we are from New York"
Same law everywhere" responded
the officer, imperturbably, bluffing his
way through. And off he bore the
two protesting men and for two hours
they were locked up in q small room
at Pierce Bros undertaking establish
ment viewing the remnants of the
man and exonerated the trolley COM
pany.
But I found out afterward," said
Mr.. Karl, that they couldn't take
me at all-only, they did! Next time,
I'll know"

The next time Alfred Reisenauer is

and not depend on careless hotel clerks
to keep him posted.
Reisenauer, who is here to play at

a dinner at Levy's, rendered last night
by the Gamut cuban organization of

some thirty-odd members were as

on the second floor of the Levy place,

came not.
The minutes sped, and still the guests
waited, and the members stood first on
one foot and then on the other, but
Reisenauer was conspicuous only by
his absence. And the dinner cooled.

the interior departments of the as

aging Fisurss..IO5 Patients Discharged.

The trustees of the New York
State Hospital for Incipient Pull
monary tuberculosis in the Adiron-
dacks have issued their completed
statistics for the first year, which is
as follows: There were admitted
2o7 patients, more than half of
whom were incipients. There were
no deaths. Of the los patients dis
charged, ffty-two were apparently
recovered. Twenty-six arrested cases
are reported. Sixteen improved,
while eleven left without any i'm
provement. The treatment consists
mainly of outdoor air, wholesome
food and rest. Patients have three
full meals and two or three lun-
cheons day, and 90 of the los
gained an average of 1857 pounds
each. This is certainly most en-
couraging and shows that incipient
consumptives at least can be cured.
There is another treatment perhaps
almost as good. Stay home. use
cold baths in the morning, get as
much outdoor exercise as possible,
a generous diet and the continuous
use of Scott's Emulsion will doubt
less check the progYss Of the dis
ease and may permanently cure. At
any rate it is easy to try it.

GERMAN RETURNS AND
DAUGHTER is HAPPY
STRANGER WHO DISAPPEARED
EXPLAINS
Loses His Way, Meets Friend and
Spends the Night With Him, but
Finally Reaches His Hotel In
Safety

Edward Snider, the elderly German
who became lost in the whirl of the
city Tuesday afternoon, was found ir
Central park yesterday morning about
IL o'clock by a former fellow passen-
ger on the steamship Santa Rosa.
After spending the afternoon search
ing for his hotel, Snider fell in with
a stranger, who took him to a room in
a lodging house on South Hill street
and provided for him for the night.
Yesterday morning, after securing his
breakfast, Snider strolled to Central
park and was recognized by a friend.
By communicating with the police,
Snider's daughter was located and he
was soon returned to his hotel. One
of the queer phases of the case was
that Snider was not more than three
blocks away from his hotel during the
twenty hours that friends were search
ing for him.
Daughter Seeks Aid of Detectives
Miss Emma Snider, his daughter,
called at the detectives headquarters
of the central station Tuesday even
ing. She told the officers that she and
her father arrived in Los Angeles Mon
day. They occupied rooms at lodging
house on Fifth street and late in the
day took rooms at the Colorado house.
612 1-2 South Broadway.
Late Tuesday morning the couple
went for a walk.
Again in the afternoon they went
out to see the city. Becoming tired,
Snider asked to be sent to his hotel
Miss Snider assisted her father to
board a south-bound Pico Heights car
at First street and Broadway.
Fearing that he would not know
when he reached Sixth street the young
woman asked the motorman to let her
father off at Sixth street. 1t is now
learned that Snider was put off the car
at Seventh street and Broadway. After
waiting nearly an hour for his daughter
the old man made his way to Central
park.
In the meantime Miss Snider was
searching the vicinity of Sixth and
Broadway Knowing that Snider was
grieving deeply over the recent death
of his wife Miss Snider thought it pos
sible that he might be temporarily de-
ranged.
After spending the night with kind
friends, Snider was returned to his
home.
Miss Snider and her father, who is
sixty eight years old, arrived recently
from Manitoba, Canada. They have
been making tour of the west.

GERMAN PIANIST TALKS
OF STUDY WITH LISzT
DESCRIBES CHARACTERISTICS OF
MASTER
Alfred Reisenauer, Who VIII Be Heard
In a Piano Recital This Evening,
Becomes Reminiscent at Thought
of Boyhood Days

The years which Alfred Reisenauer
spent as pupil of Liszt form a period
of which the famous pianist never tires
| of talking. 1t Is doubtful If any
pupil ever got closer to the great
master than did Reinsenauer, and nc
one occupied a warmer place in his
affections.
II began with the Meister when ]
was twelve years DID," said Reinsen-
auer, in an interview yesterday. 1.-THE
lessons were given twice a week. from
three until six o'clock. We We're Won
derfully taught, having to play be-
fore each other, and hearing criticisms
not only on our work but on that of
all the class.
"It was great fun unless ones
work was Ill prepared, and then-ach!
how the Meister would rave! His
temper, when aroused, was like a
great storm, impulsive and violent.
But these, were rare occasions. We
all wanted to work well, especially
since not only Liszt, but also Won
Buelow, Rubinstein, D'Albert, Taussig
and others were among the visiting
element of the circle. Do you think
we wanted to play badly before them
After the school course was finished,
came two winters in Rome Staven-
hagen, Lilotti, Friedheim, Ansologe
I, Il,
who became my intimate friend-all of
us were in Liszt's class in Rome.
THE. Meister did not talk much dur
ing the lessons. He illustrated on the
piano. Sometimes he would become
sarcastic. and he could make very sat-
irical jokes. AS rule he was kind
and considerate. Attention and earn
estness were the traits that he valued,
and If pupil but displayed these he
had little to fear"
Tonight's Recital
Tonight at Simpson auditorium, AL
fred Reisenauer will be heard in one
recital. So much does the New York
season offer for what is excellent that
it is not often that a single musical
event calls for such extreme indorse-
ment as was aroused last year by Alfred
Reinsenauer, the great German pianist.
Reinsenauer in three concerts won San
Francisco, and undoubtedly tonight he
will please the large audience which
will assemble at Simpson auditorium
to hear him. The program numbers
are as follows:
Theme with variations, e major,
Haendel CThe Harmonious Black

DR.. HART, WHO MURDERED TEN
YEAR-OLD CHILD, is SEN.
FENCED.

Chicago, Dec. 81. - DR.. Oliver B.
Hart, son of a wealthy resident of St.
Louis, who, two weeks ago, pleaded
guilty to the murder of Irene Klokow,
ten years old, in his residence in
Rogers Park last October, was sem
fenced yesterday by Judge Barnes in
the criminal court to forty-five years
in the p~enitentiary. The child was
left alone in the house with Hart,
who, it was charged at the trial,
drugged her with morphine and then
maltreated her. The morphine re-
suited in the child's death, and when
neighbors broke into the house a few
hours later they found Hart in a
semi-conscious condition from the eff
fects Of some drug, he having made
an attempt to commit suicide. A num-
Der of physicians who testified at the
trial agreed that he was not mental
ly responsible and hat he had the
mind of a boy of about twelve years
of age.
