Boomer Didn't DO II.

The notorious Jimmie Dooner, who
made himself famous in the Registers
Office three years ago, was arrested at
the Memphis and Charleston depot
yesterday evening, charged with
having swindIed T. M. Mccall, of
Wilmington, s. c., of $50 by means
ola bogus draft for $l7OO on the Bank
of Exchange, of New York.
boomers guilt could not be conclu-
sively proven, and he was dismissed.
Mccall was beatenbya couple Of sharp.
erS who played an old game. One Of them
learned his name and residence and
started to the depot with him, but was
overtaken on the way by a confederate
who demanded money for freight
bill. The first swindler borrowed $50
from Mccall, giving him bogus draft
to hold and then hied away on some
imaginary errand.
Dooner was arrested on suspicion
and wore look Of injured innocence
this morning that was peculiarly re-
freshing to those who are acquainted
with his rapid record. He changed
his location to st. Louis after he had
been a short while in the Registers
Office and was arrested there on a tele
gram, but released because the city
would not agree to pay $40 expenses
for bringing him back for trial.

An Injured Sweetheart.

A shot was heard on the corner Of
Beal and DeSoto streets last night,
and policeman, who saw two men in
consultation in the hallway of the
building from which the noise came,
arrested them as they entered the
room of Maria Cummings, who was
found lying across her bed in sense
less condition, her clothes torn, a
hruise on her shoulder, the quilt rent
by "a bullet and the bolt Of the dsor
broken. When the dusky Maria re
covered after several hours hard
work she was unable to give the name
Of her assailant, and in court to day
was unable to say who shot her. The
two prisoners, Albert Dunlap and
B. F. Petway, were friends and she
didn't think either one Of them shot
at her. On the outside il was heard
that one Of them, with whom she re
fused to promenade yesterday evening,
grew angry and shot her. The proof
before the court was not sufficient for
conviction.

About 100 ladies and gentlemen,
the ladies largely predOminAting,
Joined in practioing their voices, under
the tutorship Of Professor MOrses
Downs, at the Mozart Club hall, last
night, 1t was good meeting and the
effective work Of the accomplished
Professor was plainly apparent to the
casual observer. The choral numbers
from Mendelssohn's oratorio OF
Elijah" occupied attention during
the larger part of the evening.
The first was, "Baal We Cry
to Thee" after which BE Not
Afraid" underwent rehearsal. Both
we're cleverly executed, considering
the brief period they have been before
the club. The professor devoted the
closest attention to his pupils during
the two hours school he gave, and the
minutest details Of method, vocal in>
depreciation, pronunciation, etc, did
not escape his watchful eye and ear.
The latter part of the orchestral re,
hearsal was given to the chorus "Hal-
lelujah," from the Messiah" and is
to be presented to the public at
concert to be announced
sometime ahead. There are ten or
more choruses in Elijah" which the
Professor is to school his pupils in
between now and the first week in
May, when the oratorio is to be
given here under the leadership of
Theodore Thomas. The renowned
master, it is understood, will be ac>
companied by a company Of seventy
FIVE instrumental and four solo artists.
His business agent, Mr., Locke, now in
San Francisco. has been here and
expressed himself much pleased with
the material Prof. Downs has at hand,
as we'll as of the interest and enthu-
siasm manifested by the Mozart So
ciety in the work it has undertaken.
The exact date when the oratorio will
be given will be announced as soon as
Mr.. Locke fixes it. The Mozsrts are
determined to exert themselves to
render Elijah" in its entirety,
and their earnestness to become
thorough in their respective parts
was plainly apparent during last eve.
ning's practice. The best musical
talent in the city was present, and it
was rather novel sight to see the
most accomplished instructors we
have among us standing in line like so
many school children, their musical
sheets before their faces, their minds
closely absorbed, and all apparently
anxious to acquit themselves as their
trainer desired. The MOzarts
are numerous ard strong, but
the feminine voices SO out
number the other sex that a
few dozen young men would add
greatly to its harmonious execution,
and as it is a fine school for practice,
couple Of dozen gentlemen
could not occupy their spare evenings
in better way than by joining the
society. They should do it at once,
ard lend aid in the effective public
rendition of the great oratoriO of
Elijah"
