INTEMPERANCE.
Evil Effects of Strons Drink -A
Penitent Husband.
The curse of Intemperance has been
often shown In Its glaring hldeousness
but the examples that have been given
of that vice never appear to have much.
weight. Another Instance Is now added
to tho huge mass of evidence already
accumulated. A woman the wife of
one of our most respectable citizens and
who Is by no means addicted to the use
of stimulants on Saturday night quar-
reled with her husband because he
generally comes home on that day of
the Week Intoxicated and not a vestige
of his week's wages left tnonte and faro
generally sweeping bis earnings Into
their capacious maws. This has been
endured by tho wife for some time past
Until forbe'arnce had reached Its limits.
On Sunday night she borrowed $1
from n neighbor and with It
went to a barrel house and bought
whisky to that amount. She
then returned home nnd drank the
ardent and Inferior spirit giving some.
In her hysterical grief to the Baby at
her breast. The result of Imbibing this
large quantity may be easily lmoglneil
and when the husband came homo Sun-
day night be found his wife lying on the
Hour In a hclplens condition of Inebriety
while tho little baby wadn a comatnre
condition beside her. Frightened at the
appctrance of wife and child he rushed
fur mcdlral assistance and to the
already remorseful feelings that had
been engendered In his mind the
doctor Informed him his little son was
not likely to recover from an Injury to
the pine which the despairing mother
must have caused by dropping the poor
little fellow from her lap wiille under
tho Influence of whiskey; In nddltion to
this grief It was acutely augmented
when It was told hlnithst his wile will
In all probability die Irom alcoholic
poisoning. The now repentant hus-
band ndinlls that his wife told him she
would take such a course tho next tlmo
he came In on a Saturday night In a
state of drunkenness nnd empty pockets.
MISSION GARDEN.
First Appearance Of The German
nhcnlHh Band Last Evening
Last evening the Mlsilon Garden was
crowded with visitors who bad como to
hear the first concert to be given by tho
German lthenlth Mllllnry band the
conductor of which Is John Stroll an
able wlelder of the baton. The band
consists of 10 members and they wear
the uniform of tho Prussian Landwehr.
All the Instrumentalists seem to be
above usual executants nnd tho long
programme that was given last
night was thoroughly enjoyed. The
first Item was tho San Antonio March
composed bv J. Stross. This Is n brlcht
composition nnd tuneful but does not.
appear to aim at any great originality.
The Main Klaegno waltz by Porlow
was wcu rcceiveu uy iuo auuience as
also was the cornet solo of Albert Bode
which was excellently rendered and the
musician gave strong evidence of having
received a thorough training In the
German school and his playing was en-
thusiastically encored. The Potpourri
Muslkallschcr Scherz by Moskau con-
cluded the llrst part and dls-
satlslled Britisher had unction given
to their soul by hearing the familiar
strains of "God Save the tjuecn." This
was mogninceniiy piayeu ami inc auu-
ience were not slow in showing marks
of approval. The second portion of the
programme commenced with the Ameri-
can overture after which the quartette
and chorus from theNlbclungenltlngen
by Wagner. This was possibly more
appreciated byourGermnncltlzens than
our average American citizens. Heln-
rloh Stross' trombone solo was well exe-
cuted and evinced that the player was a
polished and nrtlstlo performer on that
Instrument. The well known and en-
trancing "Kuk Kuk" nnd "Nnchte-
gallen" was applauded lopturouily by
the audience and tho "Recollection of
War Songs" a medley by Ferdinand
Beyer was equally well received. In
tho third Dart the niece most recog
nized was undoubtedly tho "Krstc
Llebe." Garotte by Neckc. and when
the grand llnalo was given the audi
ence leu sorry mat iuo conclusion
of such a pleasant evening had oome.
The muslo lost nothing by association
for host Mabncke's Harden Is always one
that Is exceptionally lit for al fresco
concerts anu now it uas oecn materially
enlarged It Is more so; tho gas Jets
throuKhout the earden mlnirllne with
dark verdure of trees and shrubs while
tne iiCKiing oi liny iouniains incrcaseu
the fascinating influences that surround
one nt tho Mission garden. Never has
the Mission irarden had so larce and se
lect an audience and now that the success
of the Gerraanla band Is "fait accompli"
we cordially wish that LudwIgMahncko
may nave an mo success ins gcniauiy
anil enterprise deserve.
