Mrs. Emma Reise of 1147 Point Lo
bos avenue committed suicide at her
residence yesterday afternoon while
laboring under J an attack of melan
cholia. During the temporary absence
of her nurse she turned on the gas
in a small room off the hair and was
dead when found.
Mrs. Reise had been an inmate of a
sanitarium at Llvermore for six
months, suffering from a nervous af
fection, and left there about a month
ago. Mrs. Catherine Dorn of 1201
Gough street was engaged as a nurse.
She told a deputy coroner that she
saw Mrs^ Reise lying asleep on • a
couch in a room and that shortly
thereafter Mrs. Reise disappeared.
Mrs. Dorn made a hurried search and
detected the odor of illuminating gas
proceeding from a small room off' the
hall. The door was forced open, but
too late. Mrs. Reise was a native of
Germany, .4 3 J years ; of age.

" -T IS BURNT WITH JOY
Bessie ' Tannehill, Caro Roma and
Dora de Filippe — there are sixteen ways
of spelling that " wrong, Where's the
programme!— are, respectively, the
Countess. Palmatica and her daughters
Laura and • Bronislava. They are very
funny as the shabby genteel . family,
with their' jewels' and one "mouchoir"
between them. There is, when one
comes to -think of it— the -"mouchoir".
reminds 1 — a serious objection to labeling
"The; Beggar Student" with DeKo
ven's or any other of the modern
names. Jt is* too funny. To return,
the Roma and Tannehill both bring a
lively sense of humor to the exposition
of their roles, and the music is. effec
tively exploited. Milloecker does not
excuse ¦ his "character" ¦ woman from
singing duty, and the. Laui'a is almost
as exacting as a Lucia., It is a little
over-lyrical for the Roma voice.
Miss de Filippe is the enfant terrible,
Bronislava; and is almost too ; much
"enfant." She is a sprightly little soul,
a dainty little figure in her Polish furs
and sinsrs- charmingly, and when she
has gained something »pf repose will
be even more effective than she now is.
She has \ her audience already, ; though.'
. Ferris Hartman is the general In . his
usual funny wise,' with some good and
medium gags and a rather 111-fltting
martial chest. Webb is comical as the
jailer, and Algernon Aspland, William
Schuster, Fogarty, Formes, Perron,
Miss King and' Miss Deglow are reck
lessly'flung over .the rest of the cast.
The 1 chorus should- be. mentioned. It
got several hands for itself alone.* -
Altogether,- you will . distinctly • miss
it If you do not hear "The v Beggar. Stu
dent." . . BLANCHE PARTINGTON.
Russo's mercurial genius is-expended
on the part of Symon, the beggar stu
dent, who -to. free himself from prison
consents to impersonate a prince. His
other duties . are to , woo and \ wed a
haughty countess, who , has rejected - the
general who bribes Symon. ' Russo glit
ters in ¦ the part. His tenor spreads
like cream over the . songs - and he
brings . a buoyancy, an earnestness, a
frolicsome • lightness > to the role that
give . one quite Its best. His partner
in sin, Mr. Brownlow, who is Jan, who
apes the . prince's se5retary. is almost
equally well suited. In particularly
good form ig Mr. Brownlow's barytone,
that is especially enjoyable in the
pretty duet with Bronislava in the sec
ond act. . . . •
The conditions would have dampened
anything but , a Tivoli cast In a Mil
loecker opera. But the combination is
impregnable. The singers and Ferris
Hartman sparkled, lilted and laughed
through a performance that is one of
the best in their record. If you want
fun,:. plenty of It, a good story and
some rattling, good singing, go to see it
for yourself. ,
Piece and production alike are ex
cellent. It takes singing does "The
Beggar Student," and they sing it at
the Tivoli— Russo, Roma, De Filippe,
Brownlow, Cunningham — and what a
pleasant, unforced note Bessie Tanne
hill's is! They act it well, too, and
the opera is staged and costumed
charmingly.
Tack on the De Koven label and
advertise "The Beggar Student" as the
latest New York success, and the Tivoli
would be crowded this week. It would
be more crowded next, as every auditor
would become its press agent. Unfor
tunately the crowd seems to be any
where else this week. Even the enthu
siast . could hardly, dub the house a
"fair" one last night. There were rows
on rows of empty seats echoing to
Roma's mellow note and Russo's love
ly lingo.

It is planned. to enforce the rule when j
applications are first made for taking >
teachers' - examinations, one of which '
will be held*- in /June, j Heretofore ap- I
plications have came from teachers in i
remote . places ; in ..the State. Some of
the successful ones have been elected
by formal resolution, but a number of;
them would ask for an extension of
time before assuming the positions, and
this caused much inconvenience ta.the
Scnool Board.: The new rule would ;
o"bvir.te the inconvenience, as selections .
would in future be made from bona fide
residents of this city.
The rules governing the Oakland and
Alameda schools provide that teachers
employed there must be actual resi- !
dents. The rules go even further and •
impose- fees on, all non-resident pupils
who attend the schools. The fee for
the primary schools is $10 per term;
for grammar schools, $15 per term, and
for high schools, $20 per term. The
local board does notintend at present
to adopt a rule, militating against non
resident, pupils, although President-
Roncovieri expressed an opinion that
it is a good rule. There are few.non- i
resident ..pupils attending schools of
this city.' ¦ . • /
' The, Board! of Education's intention J
to incorporate in the revised rules one
prohibiting teachers^ in 'the local school
department' from residing in outside
towns caused -consternation among the
forty teachers who do not reside in I
this city and who Would be affected
by the new regulation.
The telephone lines leading into the
office of the -Board of Education were
kept busy . yesterday by the teachers
who desired to know, whether the board
would riot • recede from its position.
They were j informed that the board is
of the opinion that the rule is a good j
one and would be incorporated in the |
regulations, but 'that a proviso might i
be inserted- exempting the teachers at
present in the department who live in
suburban towns from its provisions.
March 7 he again phoned and we went over
to gee him. He asked how much was coming
to him, and on learning the amount said
that he would first consult his attorneys. We
told "him that it was immaterial to us whether
he accepted the money. We did not believe
that Soeder was entitled to any money from
the policies he took out on Blaise's life, so
thought H best to return the amounts paid.
We felt that in view of the fact that Soeder
lied as to his business and his brother-in
law's occupation, as well as in other particu
lars during the making out of the applica
tions, that we were safe as far as being held
for the payment of the policies was con
cerned. Soeder also changed or caused to bo
changed the name of Blaise's wife on one
of the policies and had his own name inserted
In Us place. This was done without the
knowledge of the home office at the time.. .-
On the morning of April fi we again heard
from Soeder. We went to the Jail and paid
him the $107 60 and he signed over the poli T
cles to us. The policies are still in the keep
ing of the Dollee and I do not know whether
we can now be held liable for them— that Js
a legal question to be decided by the courts.
Included In the $107 »iO was $5 which was
paid on the premium of the policy fhken out
on Bender's life. That policy is now void.
Soeder failed to make the last payment when
it was due; so we are no longer responsible
to him lor any policy on his life.
Of course we know that Blaise paid some
of the money on one of the policies himself,
but have good cause to believe. In the light
of th« police findings, that the money was
riven to him by Soeder.
POLICE ACCUMULATE EVIDENCE
' The police are elated at the accu
mulation of evidence against Soeder
and are confident that they will T con
vict him when the case comes up for
trial April 18. They argue that his
acceptance of the money from the in
surance pe6ple is as good as an admis
sion that the life insurance policies
were obtained illegally and *by mis
representation.
Attorney Salomon. Soeder s attor
ney, denied any knowledge of Soeder's
acceptance of the premium money
from the Mutual Life Company. De
tective Gibson believes that Soeder
realized that he would be convicted
and "double crossed" his lawyer by
getting hold of the $107 60.
The police have a valuable piece of
evidence in the Blaise murder case,
which, they claim, is a practical ad
mission on the part of Soeder that he
is gruilty of the murder of his brother
in-law, Joseph Blaise. Detective
Gibson has been informed by the of
ficials of the Pacific Mutual Life In
surance Company that Soeder had ac-.
cepted from them every cent of money
that he or Blaise paid on the policies
issued in their company. The deal
which the insurance people have been
trying to put through with the ac
cused rmurderer was consummated on
April 6.
Shortly after Soeder was charged
with murder the insurance people in
whose company the prisoner held
policies attempted to get him to take
back the money that he had paid
them. Soeder. then confident of his
ultimate acauittal, scorned the offer.
Soon afUr the close of the prelimin
ary hearing, at which the police piled
up sufficient evidence to have Soeder
bound over to the Superior Court for
trial before a Jury, the accused man
began overtures to regain the money
once refused.
Attorney Roscoe S. Gray of the law
firm of Fox & Gray, attorneys for
the Mutual Life, stated yesterday
that Soeder had been 'paid $107 60,
every cent that he paid the company.
He said: "On March 3 Soeder phoned
from Jthe Broadway Jail for some
member of the company to come and
see him. We sent a representative to
him with the money. Soeder wanted
to knowif the previous offer that we
had made him still held good. He
was informed that it did. Then he
told the representative of the company
that he would think it over."

HUSBAND IN .7 AID.
Clarke was followed by Charles Ma
loon and D. J. Denahy, watchmen on
duty at the Oakland City Hall the
night of the marriage. They both tes
tified that Clarke was verv, drunk the
night he came there with a woman and
a friend to get a license, and. acted as
if he imagined the proceeding was a
Joke. The next witness was C. H.
Shaw, the hackman who took Clarke
and the woman, from the Webber
House in Oakland to the City Hall,
and from there to the home of Wil
liam Van de Mark, the minister who
performed the ceremony. He said that
Clarke was so drfink that Miss Bower
and her companion had to walk on
each side of him and help him along.
The trial closed with the testimony of
Captain C. G. Lyman and Clarke's
brother-in-law and A. J. Rich. They
testified that they started a still, hunt
for Clarke when they heard of his
marriage an.d found him at the Lick
House, considerably undeF the influ
ence of liquor and very sick. They
took him from the hostelry to Dr.
Terrill and placed him under treat
ment.
.WATCHMEN TESTIFY.
The "Sweet Pea Girl" is once more a
spinster. Judge Seawell found yester
day that: Edward K. Clarke, the cap
italist, was drunk and incapable of
knowing what he was doing when,
after a prolonged debauch, 1 he went to
Oakland and. made her his wife. The
Judge accordingly granted Clarke's pe
tition for a decree annulling thermar
riage. ; Mrs. Clarke, or as she is to
be known, Rosalind Bower, did not ap
pear to contest the suit, which gave
rise to the rumor that some of the
capitalist's money had found its way
to the purse of the young lady, and
caused her to reconsider her intention
to fight Clarke's suit. A settlement
of some sort was , made, but the at
torneys in the case will not make the
terms public.
Clarke was his own chief witness.
He told how he arrived here on a Fri
day night last December, met the
woman, got gloriously drunk and came
to his senses a married man. ¦• He said
there were only a few of the incidents
connected with his wedding that he
could recollect He remembered taking
many drinks, and that was about all.
