The news of the death of Eugene Weth-
Grill, the husband Of Savanneh'5 favorite
prima donna, Emma Abbott, was an
nounced in the MORNING. NEWS last
week. AS is well known, Miss Abbott
is under engagement to sing here dur
ing the month OF February, and the
news of her husbands death, aside from
the regret it caused, gave rise to the inn
preston that IL would lead to a cancellation
Of Miss Abbott's engagement. The follow
ing dispatch from the New York Sun Of the
S,h, from Kansas City, No, seems to iudi-
cate, however, that the diva will nos give
up her Savannah engagement, despite her
severe affection The dispatch says: "Ata
meeting Of the company held here to-day IL
was agreed to accept Mr.. Pratt's offer Of
half pay tor the two weeks during which
Miss Abbott will ROMAN off the stage.

The article is a political falsehood, with
but two exception. They are; first, that
no money was asked for John Scawarz;
and second, that the men would act aud

number one, there appear t. be but few If
any OF tn employees sufficiently interested
in the geutlemau's candidacy to even ask a
