A very delightful musicale was given
at the Park Hotel on Thursday night.
Being an informal afiair it was all the
more enjoyable. Mr. F. N. Ball, of
Galveston, entertained those present
with renditions of the old masters, with
that thorough technique, correct inter-
pretation aud perfect time for which he
is so well known. Miss Maud Black-
mar’s performance can only be com-
pared to the harmonious chiming of
silvery bells. Mr. Geo. England filled
the room with his full round Dotes,
while Mrs. W. H. Cogswell filled the
ears of her hearers with such exquisite
tones of melody that the remembrance
will long dwell with them.
There is a dog at the Park Hotel be-
longing to Mrs. Holton, who whenever
he gets loose, trots off to the billiard
room and gives the bar-keeper no peace
until he bauds him a piece of ice.
Then the serious expression of counte-
nance of the dog, his bewildered air
when the ice slips from him and slides
across the floor and the suspicious look
with which he regards the standers by,
is ludicrous beyond expression.
ianslaugbter'
and their theory or line of argument
was that the killing was due to anger
excited by insulting language used to
the defendant’s wife and under no cir-
cumstances could it be held to be de-
liberate homicide. The jury seemed
to take the same view of the case aud
gave Bonner but two years in the pen-
itentiary.
