Mrs. Mehrten's Music Hall.

Delightful Recital at Prof. and
Mrs. Mehrten's Music Hall.
Despite the bad weather last night,
large audience greeted the pupils of Prof.
and Mrs Leo w. Mehrtens at their mu-
sicale at Mehrtens' hall. Those who at
tended were enthusiastic in it's praise.
The pupils were assisted in the pro-
gramme by Master Arthur Levy, who is
fast winning a reputation as a violnist
The programme commenced with a trio
of pianos, Drifting Clouds" each instru-
ment having three. performers. They were
Misses Conner Bell and Cunningham at
one; Misses Dent, Gutman and Dierks at
another; and Masters Lang Adams and
Lawton at the third.
The harmony produced by the instru-
ments in concert were very sweet, and
the similar performance on three pianos
by Misses Hazel Haas, Rita Gut
man and Estelle Gutman; Misses
Alma Lindsay, Cora Johnson and
Sarah Cunningham, and the same trio
Of boys, in the rendition of a grand march
was not less pleasing.
Miss Ruthie Ehrlich's "Valse'' on the
piano was charmingly played, as was the
Scotch Melody" by Master Alexander
Lawton, with the violin accompaniment of
Master Arthur Levy.
Miss Stella Levy played the Shepherds
Carol with great success, and Miss An
ma Dierks was the winner of her audi
ences applause in her playing of the
"Mazurka."
The Charge of the Hussars," played by
Master Levy, with Prof. Mehrtens full
rich and sonorous organ accompaniment
was adjudged one of the most successful
of the pieces played, but Master Levy's
violin in the Scene de Ballet" to the
splendid piano accompaniment of Mrs.
Mehrtens, divided the honors with the
violin in its organ accompaniment.
Miss Sarah Cunningham and Master
Wilder Adams, in a piano duet, rendered
I'll Trovatore," and Misses Eta Roth
schild and Marie Lippman in their duet,
'Triumphal March," were pronounced as
worthy of all praise.
The piano, with Prof. Mehrten's skilled
accompaniment on the organ, loaned a
sweet harmony to the Simple Confess
SION beneath the soft touch of Miss Ada
Ehrlich.
Master Robert Irwin played 1.-THE
Brook with its ripping sweetness of
note, and the Polka de la Refine" was
played by Miss Hortense Stern with great
beauty.
Miss May Palmer's success in her rendi-
ton of Listz's "Rhapsodie No r." was the
subject of much warm comment, the little
lady having so delightfully."- played the Sc
lection.
The only vocal solo of the evening was
sung by Master Hermann Lang, who is
heard with great pleasure when he sings.

Ex-Mayor McDOnough and Alderman
Reid ON the Docket.

The new road ordinance is being en-
forced by the police with a relentlessness
that is making some OF its advocates
mourn. Ex-Mayor j. j. McDonough and
Alderman W. f. Reid will face the re-
corder this morning on the charge Of drlv-
ing on the wrong side of Oglethorpe ave-
nue..
The alderman was driving comfortably
along the avenue yesterday when a police
man stopped him and reminded him that
he was on the wrong side Of the street.
1t was thoughtlessness on his part of
course. Mr.. McDonough was driving past
the police barracks the other day, going
west on the south roadway, when the
sallyport man reminded him that 1t was
not good judgment to violate the ordi-
nance Immediately in front of the bar
racks. Mr.. McDonough at once turned
back and went around the block to the
north side, but his name was placed on
the docket anyway.

Mutual Outlook.

Mr.. NJ. A. O'Byrne, one of the receivers
of the Southern Mutual Building and
bright view of the prospects of the invest
ors in that unlueky organization. AL
though the receivers have recovered the
$4,000 of securities pledged by the de-
faulting president. w. c. Hale, by repay
ing the amount advanced, $4,000, the as
sets of the concern are still much below
the liabilities. The $4,000 of securities
are supposed to be worth about $4,000.
The liabilities are about $500, 900, as against
assets of the face value of 5000 900.
The assets are not expected to realize
their face value by a good deal and the
shrinkage will, no doubt, be considerable.
