An Exciting Scene.
Between eight and nine last evening the in-
habitants of Kingsbury street were alarmed by
the loud screaming of a female apparently in
distress. On rushing out they were in time
to see a man rushing madly down the street
chased by a female. Mr. Rosenberg the gar-
dener rushed across his garden hoping to in-
tercept the man and a friend who was staying
with Mr. Gilbert rode after him but from
what we can leam the parties were not found
and no explanation is given of the attain
—Visitors to the Volksfest will have the
rare opportunity of seeing the performance of
Mein Leopold at Turner Hall next Sunday
evening. Aside from the fact that it will be a
suitable finale of the Volksfest it is also ap-
propriate as its scenes and incidents of family
life are both interesting and charming and
Mr. Schmidt the gentleman who labored so
hard to bring the piece to a successful issue
deserves the thanks of the community.
San Antouio Mechanlcs' and Workingmen’s
Union.
The weekly meeting of the union was held
in Struve’s hall last night President Theron
Vail occupying the chair.
After the minutes of last meeting were read
and adopted the secretary reported that a
member Mr. Horn had been injured by gravel
bank falling on him. It was unanimously re-
solved that all assistance necessary should be
immediately furnished to Mr. Horn in tne way
of food medicine nursing and medical atten-
dance. And in order that this might be the
better done a committee consisting of Vice-
President Ryder-Taylor Mr. Nocker and Mr.
Wenze were appointed to confer with the St.
Josephia society of which Mr. Horn is also a
member as to the best means of aiding Mr.
Horn ami payment of the expenses. It was
stated that Mr. Horn was doing very well but
he had suffered severe internal injuries and
having regard to his age there was danger of a
fatal issue to the case.
The society then proceeded to make definite
arrangements are far as possible for the Volks-
fest.
Owing to the lateness of the hour the con-
sideration of the secretary’s buying bill was
deferred until next week.
It was resolved that a special meeting of the
society be held in Struve’s hall on Wednesday
night next to make final arrangements for the
Volks-fest business.
Madame Trio’s Concert.
As will be seen by our advertisement col-
umns Madame Ealo will give a complimenta-
ry concert in Turner hall to-morrow night.
Madame Ealo is spoken of very highly as a
vocalist and musician has won considerable
fame in New Orleans. Mrs. Katzenberger
Miss Mollie Bennett Miss Marie Lacoste
Professor Katzenberger and the band of the
22nd infantry will support an excellent pro-
gramme and we trust that Madame Ealo will
receive that measure of support which the ex-
ellence of her concert deserves.
