An Incident During Concert Week in
Montreal, Canada.

Carl Faelten of the New England Con-
servatory of Music, Boston, chose Knabe
Concert Grand for his use at Queens Hall
and one for the Windsor hotel. The piano
expressmen unfortunately dropped the
piano in the hall, the instrument falling
several feet; the weight of the heavy iron
plate, nearly ton, smashed the magnifi-
cent case in several places, splintering up
the finely built and seasoned natural rose
wood. The piano was afterward placed on
the platform and used at both concerts,
Halloween and Valda, without even
further tuning The same piano was, Sat
urday. expressed to Kingston, for the Valda
concert there, and will be used at all con
certs in Canada without further tuning be-
fore it finally is returned for repair of the
case. The fact is a Knate Piano can
scarcely ever be destroyed or grow old
Those who were fortunate enough to b.
present at the marvellous musical rendi-
tions by the Chevalier do Kontski at the
Valda concert, can testify to the SUCCESS Of
the instrument. Does the public realize
that all the Knabe Pianos are built as per-
fectly as the ground, and that they are,
therefore, all things considered, the cheap
est piano in the end to buy. The price of a
Knabe piano should be no obstacle in the
way, if durability, tone and touch, are to
count for anything, and yet the price is
reasonable. MONTREAL WITNESS.

A WITNESS SENT TO JAIL.
Jennie Harris Compelled to Abandc
Her Proposed Trim to Neu Yorh

Jennie Harris Compelled to Abandon
Her Proposed Trip to New York.
Jennie A. Harris, one Of the colored
women who claims that the registered letter
was not received by her, and who was
witness against exMail Carrier McEvoy at
the preliminary examination before United
States Commissioner Lamar, was COM
United to Jail yesterday, in default of $500
bond. 1t was learned that she intended
leaving for New York to join her husband
there, and this coming to the notice Of the
authorities, she was required to give
Tecognizance for her appearance in the
United States court, which convenes
here next month. A deputy United
States marshal accompanied her yesterday
afternoon in quest of a surety, but she
could not secure one. The woman was
visiting her mother at No. q Indian street
lane, and the registered letter sent her by
her husband, she says, contained IS. She
denies having received it, and says she
never lived at the place where the mail car
rier claims 70 have delivered it, as he says it
was near West Broad street, while Jennie's
mother lives several doors west of Farm
street.
Commissioner Lamar regretted that he
had to commit her TO jail, but she admitted
that she was going TO New York, and under
the circumstances he had no other alternat-
i've, as he gave her every opportunity to
procure bond. 1t is understood that her
friends will try and give bond for her to-
morrow

THE WEEKS SHOWS.
Around the World in Eighty Days
the Opening Attraction.

Around the World in Eighty Days"
the Opening Attraction.
The attraction of the week at the theater
will be "Around the World in Eighty
Days" tomorrow and Tuesday nights. The
sale of seats began yesterday with a rush.
The piece Is spectacular. 1t is based upon
"a Tour of the World in Eighty Days"
which is perhaps one of the most unique of
the many unique novels that have emanated
from the unique pen of that most unique of
French novelistS, Jules Verne. Its dramati-
cation in spectacular shape is pronounced
great success. It's first presentation in
Charleston took place Thursday night, not
outstanding the fact that it is ten years or
more since the spectacle burst with all its
gorgeous paraphernala upon the American
public, under the direction of the Kiralfy
Brothers, on the stage of the Academy of
Music in New York, and the Charlestonians
were delighted. The thread of the story,
the Net0s and Courier says, is faithfully
followed; much more faithfully, in fact,
than most dramatizations of standard nov
els. The audience had a pretty fair pauo-
rama of Mr.. Fogg's strange journey, taking
in London, the SueZ canal, interior India,
Calcutta, San Francisco, the wild West,
New York, the Atlantic ocean, and finally
the return to London But aside from the
dramatic features of the play are the scenic
and spectacular effects. which play a very
important part in this romantic drama.
Tho scenery is all new, fresh and striking.
There is a large corps de ballet, and the
eastern scenes are put upon the stage with
gorgeous effect. The wild western scenes
are also very realistic, and the explosion of
the steamship GU the ocean is one of the most
realistic scenes, perhaps, that has ever been
produced in Charleston. All in al, "A
Tour of the World, is a splendid spectacle

TO HOLD A FAIR.
What the Ladies' Auxiliary Port
Society is Doing.

The ladies of the Auxiliary Port Society
are arranging to give a fair of all
nations" the first week in December for the
purpose of raising funds to further the
objects of the society, and are seeking con-
tributi ons from the business men and the
community at large.
The Port Society during the past year,
has accomplished more than it has ever
accomplished before in the interests of the
seamen. It's rooms are crowded every day,
aud at all of the religious
services. The managers want to
establish Sailors Home. To do this they
need aid. The ladies Of Savannah recently
organized the ladies' auxiliary and are
doing an effective work. The societys
present rooms have been neatly furnished
ana musical entertainments are given every
two weeks for the seamen.
Chaplain Gilmore is an energetic and
popular man, and his popularity among the
seamen and those with whom he is con-
nected in the work, have had much to do
with its success.
