Skipped and Returned. Fred Berger, the eccentric photographer, until recently employed by W. H. Lyon, skipped out last week, taking a set of instruments valued at $100 together with about $30 in cash. Berger had been working for Mr. Lyon here, and lately at Gosport. He returned to the city on Saturday and gave his wife a baggage check, which she turned over to Mr. Lyon and he procured the instruments which had come in on a night train. Mr. Lyon, account of the large family of Berger, who are in destitute circumstances, has decided not to prosecute and will stand the loss of the cash. Berger is hunting another job. He is about 50 years of age.
