SAVANNAH, April %, 1sy

SAVANNAH, April %, 1898.
Profs. Mehrtens and Hubner desire to state
that the account of the unpleasantness be
tween themselves and the mayor in the ex-
change a few days since, as it appeared in the
Looking Glass Of April 90 is incorrect, and
desire that the public shall have true &C
count of the matter as it actually occurred.
Immediately before the O'Byrne- McDon-
ough wedding a choir was being arranged to
render the music at the marriage ceremony.
During this time the mayor called at the pro
fessor's house and left the following message:
That the members of the regular choir could
not sing with Mr.. Rebarer, and were only
good enough to sing over a corpse; that he
would pay them the usual fee if necessary;
but he would have his way, and
If Prof. Mehrtens did not desire
to play he could let him know
and he would get some one else. Prof. Mehr-
tens mother was present and heard the mes
sage when it was delivered.
Prof. Hubner, in company with Prof, Mehr-
tens, called at the exchange on Thursday last
and asked the mayor about the message. He
strenuously denied that he had said it, and
when Prof. Mehrtens stated that his
mother was present and heard him say it
the mayor then denounced it as a lie
and ordered the gentlemen from his office
When they reached the Office door the mayor
addressed them by an epithet that cannot
well appear in print, and Prof. Mehrtens told
him he considered the source and returned
the compliment The mayor then made an
assault upon him and he succeeded in getting
the mayor down and was in the act of meet
ing out to him the punishment he deserved,
when he was taken off, and the mayor made
another assault on him; they clinched and the
professor administered several blows in the
face. When they we're again separated the
two gentlemen then started downstairs and
the mayor kicked Prof. Hubner's hat after
them. This was the only kicking done, and
the statement that the mayor kicked the pro.
lessor out of the exchange is untrue.
Both professors deny that they said or did
anything to cause the assault, and while they
deeply deplore the matter, they think the
public should have the facts
Prof. Mehrtens desires to state that the or
gan was not broken, but is an old instrument,
and the unfamiharity of the party who played
it caused the trouble.

CONSULTING OPTICIANS.
A STARTLING FACT.
That very few persons have perfect eyes 1t
must be evident that it requires both knowl-
edge and skill to know what the eyes need
and to nit them properly with glasses Those
who trust this work to uninstructed dealers
are criminally careless of the most valuable
OF all the senses, their sight. In addition to
graduating in Germany and my thirty years
practical experience | have taken course
and graduated in a school of optics in New
York and learned the latest and best methods
of ascertaining the different defects of the
eyes and their proper correction so that I
can fit you properly with glasses that will
strengthen and improve your eyeSight instead
OF rapidly running 1t, as poorly fitted glasses
will always do. No charge for examination.
