-
md from the evidence that that was part
OF the necessary duty of the architect of
the building to file q contract OF this kind
Tor record. There is absolutely no evil
dence upon the latter point in this Case
no evidence or any testimony tending to
prove any such duty as being necessarily
incumbent upon the architect by virtue
OF his calling. It is not sufficient for
this purpose to prove merely that it was
the custom or the habit of the plaintiff
70 file such contracts when they were
left with him, unless you further find
from the evidence that he had commu.
nicated knowledge of that custom and
habit to the defendant in such q wav as
to induce the defendant to rely upon his
doing it, and by such reliance being pre-
vented from doing it himself.
Now, the ground of the second cause of
action IN the cross complaint is not only
that plaintiff promised to file this instru.
ment for record, but that he failed 20 file
1t for record, and that in consequence of
his failure to 20 file it, these liens were
perfected against the property in such a
way as to render it liable bevond the
amount agreed to be paid in the con-
tract. Some explanation is due to the
tract of this kind is not filed for record
1t becomes void as between the original
contractor and the owner of the building
and material.men-thst is, men furnish
ing the material for the building and
laborers and sub-contractors performing
work on the building. The contract
should be fled for record before the
building is commenced or it is void. If
this contract is not fled for record, the
laborers and material-men and the sub
contractors may treat the owner precisely
~ though they had contracted originally
with him, and hold the property
liable to them for the whole amount
Of material furnished and the labor

Xmas Presents.

There has not been Xmas yet but what
we disposed of number of SteiIGlUdy and
GabLer Pianos We received new stock
last week, and the sales already commenced
so favorably that we telegraphed for more
TO be here this week. Now one word to any
purchaser of first-class Pianos. When ex-
aiming an upright. the favorite styles
nowadays have the front DO 1rd removed,
which gives you a view of the inside. In
quire particularly that the frame in which
the tuning pins are is of steel, not of iron.
Everybody knows that steel is more dura-
BILE than iron. That is one reason why
railroads use steel rails nowadays in prefer
ence to iron, as they never spread. Next
examine the hammers which strike the
strings, see that they are of gray color with
white tips, and let them be guaranteed to
be moth and water proof. Next examine
the hammer rail on which the hammers
rest when not in action, see that it is made
of steel, not of iron, or generally wood,
which warps with the change of the tenn
perature. This hammer rail is operated
with the foot on the soft pedal, and moves
forward and backward. Ask to be shown
next the steel agraffes, not piecs of brass
or framed iron. All this applies to Square
and Grand Pianos We delivered Piano
last week to a purchaser VINO had been
bothered and pestered by drummers run
ming to his house until he got so tired that
he hurried up to buy Steinl0dy. They
now will keep away, when they see I got
one. had made up my mind to get a
StsinacGy and nothing else. A friend of
mine told me if you want anything good go
to Schreiner's, he said. Yes, good instru-
ments are our pride. We never heard that
any of our first-class jewellers run around
with diamonds in their pockets and worry
ing people to buy them. We don't do this
either with our Pianos. We do not put
them in peoples houses to try them a month
or two, neither do jewelers. let people wear
their diamonds month or two on trial.
We know Of a gentleman who had two
different Pianos in his parlor on trial, and
wanted one of ours to compare. We
laughed at the idea, and now the other two
got out and Steintoay took their place.
This sort of sewing machine business style
don't suit us, and never will. The reputa-
ton of our instruments and our guarantee
must be sufficient

hours it returned verdict of guilty of
shooting not in his own defense, with a
recommendation to the extreme mercy of
the court Judge Fallgant, in view of the
recommendation, imposed sentence of
two months imprisonment in Jail or fine
of $3.50.
The readers of the MORNING News will re-
call the details of the difficulty between
Sampson and Ward. as given at the time
Sampson, who Is an old man of 20, felt
aggrieved at Ward because the former be-
lieved that he had unduly exerted himself
to keep Sampson from getting employment
as Waterman on a vessel in port.
Meeting Ward in front of the cot
ton exchange, they had some swords,
and Ward pushed or threw Sampson down,
and Sampson drew his revolver and fired
at him.
The defendant was represented by Thomas
5. Morgan, Jr., and William Pc Use, ESQ.

AT THE THEATER.
Beautiful Evangeline" Returns Again
to Savannah


to Savannah.
Beautiful Evangeline" will be at the
theater tonight. Everybody who has seen
and heard "Evangeline" is naturally anxious
to sec and hear it again. Those who have
not seen and heard it are anxious to do so,
while the admirers of Longfellow are
anxious to compare the text with the poets
lines just to see what can be done in
America in the way of burlesquing a pa
thetic aud touching poem.
There is nothing new to be said about the
play, except perhaps to mention the fact
that the prima donna Of the company is
Miss Yolande Wallace, former society
belle at the national capital, who made her
debut about three years ago. An en-
thusiastic critic writes of her as follows:
"A possessor of rare soprano voice, and
the personi6ed type of blonde loveliness,
Yolande Wallace is q credit by birth, educa-
tlon and position to- her CHOSEN profession.
As 'Evangeline' in that famous burlesuue.
she is as sweet and dainty, as the most
captiouS critic or refined connoisseur could
desire. 1t is by such additions as her to the
cast that 'Evangeline' retains much of its
great charm"

Premier Mills and his free trade allies have
evidently lost their grip upon the Democratic
members of the House. Had Cleveland been
elected ON their platform they would have
ere this assumed full charge of the Demo-
cratic party. and the Hon. Samuel ]. Ran
dali and his protection followers would have
been sent into political exile. But their fail
ure to do what they promised has somewhat
shaken the confidence of the party in their
leadership, and there is now less disposition
to hlindly follow them. This dissatisfaction
and weakening Of confidence cropped out
the other day in manner that left no room
for doubt that good many of the Dem O.
cratic members Of the House had got thor
oughly tired of Mills. For two years or
more Democrats from tobacco growing
States have been trying to get the tobacco
tax repealed. but the free traders have re-
sisted, for that would reduce the surplus and
abridge the opportunity for smashing the
protective tariff. To be sure the ways and
means committee had prepared bill taking
off the tax in part, but they held it back, de-
termined not to let it appear in the House
until the tariff was fixed to suit them. But
theother day Representative Cowles of North
Carolina concluded that 1t was about time to
put stop to this game. and SO without no.
tlce moved that the bill to repeal the tobacco
tax be referred to the appropriations commit
tee, at the head of which is the Hon. Samuel
j. Randall. 1t was passed, and very effec-
tual snub administered to the puffed-up
premier from Texas If Mills does not with
in reasonable time report the bill. Mr.
Randalls committee will take 1t up and re-
port it. Hereafter perhaps Chairman Mills
will be little more modest, and cease to try
to run the country to the extent he has been
doing
