choff admits shortage of $4,000 900.
While Bischoff, his mother and his
blind stepfathcr were on the witness
stand, aud few Of his creditors
watched silently from tho court
benches. nearly thousand unIettered
foreigners Of all ages and both sexes
stormed the Offices of "the BubbIy
Greek Ponzi" in the Marshall Square
Building in such force that a squad of
policemen was hastily summoned by a
riot call. Tho creditors said that
bischoff had asked them to call to- day
Tor their interest.
Mob Mcnaccs Youth
There were two exciting mob dom
onstrations during the day--onc at the
Federal Building ard one Mt the Bis
choh Offices at Twcnty-second Street
and Marshall Boulevard. The crowd at
the Federal Building, made up of the
more emboldened creditors, menaced
Blschoff and Mr. and Mrs. Frank O.
Davis, his stcpfather and mother.
The assets which the reccivership
hearing developed were promptly tied
up BY court order issued by Judge
Lands. Some were in the name Of
Mrs. Anna Davis. Bischof's mother,
and some in the name Of his stepfathcr,
Frank 0. Davis

Parent Teachers.

The entertainment given at the
High School auditorium last Friday
night by the Parent-Teachers Asso-
citation was in every respect worthy
effort and the patronage was fairly
good, tho few seats were vacant
that might have been taken by peo-
pie who are interested in the school.
We might as we'll admit, to begin
with, that schools and school ath-
letics are inseparable. None of us
is old enough to remember when
we had no athletics on the school
grounds. Some of us remember town
ball and bull pen, jumping-run-
ming, broad and half hammered
and very little playing unless it was
athletics. Growing children must
have exercise and big ones are no
account without it. So when we
advance to football and basket ball
it is but the natural course of at
fairs.
Therefore we congratulate the
Parent-Teachers Association in its
efforts for clean, healthy sports in
the school.
The entertainment was exception
ally fine. Among the singers were
Miss Ruth Marshall, Miss Minnie
Beck, Mrs. Ella Howse, Mrs. J. D.
Carlton; the reader, Miss Kathleen
Arnold. Mr. Holland, Of Greenfield,
visiting pianist, gave one or two
very fine numbers on the piano.
Mrs. Chas. Keiser made talk along
the lines of the work Of the evening
and she was, as usual, enlightening
and interesting.
Mrs. Sherman Sutherland was re-
quested to conduct spelling match,
but gave way for another evening.
