Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, May 16. Emil Fritz refuses to support his wife and children because his spouse cannot reach the stratum of high social position in which he has been moving for several | months. At least that is the story which Mre. Fritz related when she secured a warrant for her husband’s arrest for ne- glect to provide” for his daughters, aged 6 and 12 years respectively. Fritz was arrested at Sixth and Clay streets by Policeman Woods. The hus- band did not seem to be much inconveni- enced by the affair, for he speedily pro- duced $4#0 in gold as bail and displayed a gold watch and more coin at the police station. The Fritzes, husband and wife, appear to have very different ideas concerning the responsibility of a parent to care for his offspring. The complaining wife insists that she has been compelled to take in washing to keep the wolf from the door, while Mr. Fritz in his capacity as butier in a wealthy family has gained some peculiar ideas about the place his family should occupy. ' Mrs. Fritz told Prosecuting Attorney Leach that last March her husband noti- fied her that he would no longer support his children. He was in close touch with the upper crust and he had discovered that his family’s staticn in life not in harmony with his new field. He demanded that Mrs. Fritz should start the children toward a_higher sphere, but Mrs. Fritz rejoined that she could not move in that airection upon their limited resources, “] admit that my husband does mingle as = servant in the upper ten’s circle,” saic Mrs. Fritz, “but that ought not to excuse him from failing to care for his children.” The family had some money on deposit in a savings bank, but Mrs. Fritz could not get hold of the coin. Fritz came to town from Siskiyou County a few days ago, according to his wife, to draw that mcrey and depart again. His case will be heard to-morrow in the police court.

Its originator is Fritz Boehmer, a pioneer citizen, who has just celebrated his seventieth birthday. He circulated a petition and soon got forty-nine other old men to sign it, the limit of membership being fifty. The minimum age limit is 70 years, but men over 100 are eligible to join.

In his opening statement the president sald the soclety had two great objects in view. Onme is to give a concert for char- ity as soon as the weather-beaten voices get in tune again, the other is to resur- rect some good old songs that have passed into the beyond. ““The decadence of the musical art is deplorable,” said Mr. Boehmer. “It is a blot on the present day. Nowadays we never hear such divine music as we did the ear. Let's get back to ‘Old Hundred’ and ‘The Old Oaken Bucket’ and ‘Auld Lang Syne' and ‘Annie Laurie’ and ‘Ben Bolt” And I think we will confer an everlasting benefaction on the publie if we have a law passed against such late so-called songs as ‘Ah Got Chhl;ken on th' Brain,” ‘Jest Because She ade Them Goo-goo Eyes’ and ‘I Like My Pork Chops Greasy.” ” Although the president and his song- sters have passed the spring-chicken stage they think they can still sing and they hope to make their first concert ham, J.

Maloney, Superin- tendent of Streets of Berkeley, was found hanging to. a rafter in his barn late to- right. Mr. Maloney was with the family at dinner time and appeared cheerful. He had been sick for about a week but he did not complain. After dinner he said that he would go out for a little while. When he did not return by bedtime, knowing that he was not well and that he was at an advanced age, the family went out to search for him. As he had not been seen in the neighborhood they deciced to look in the barn. There he was found hanging to a rafter, dead. He hadytaken a piece of rope, swung it over a Leam and after tying the other end around his neck had jumped off a box. Maloney was 70 years of age. While he was able to go about freely and was very streng for nis advanced age, his years hac been telling on him of late, e caugh! cold about a week ago and that depressed him considerably. His suicide is attrib- uted to temporary insanity, caused by ill | health. The family is one of the oldest and best known in Berkeley. They have lived at the corner of Eighth street and Bancroft way for many years. C. D. Maloney, a son, has been a leading factor in Berkeley politics for several years. He was form- erly Deputy County Recorder, then Town Trustee of Berkeley, and now Superin- tendent of Streets of the town, Impose a License on Signs.
