AN EVENING OF MUSIC.
\ Delightful Entertainment at Ma
sonic Hall.

AOnAC
Musical Potpourri" under the auspices
Of the Choral Association, was rendered
last night at Masonic hal. with great sue
cess. The only drawback to the success
of the entertainment was in the small au-
dience, the rain having kept many away
who were anxious to attend.
The programme opened by the grand
overture Martha" By. Roehm's orchestra,
which throughout the entertainment rend-
cred delightful music.
Mr.. John ]. McDonough, Jr.. emphasized
the success he achieved on a former oc-
casioA by his singing Because I Love
Thee, Dear" THE Vacant Chair" with
brilliant variation, was repeated by request
with trombone and piano by Mr.. Waiter
Hughes and Miss Bessie Whatley.
Mr.. Albert King, with the success that
always attend. his efforts, sang Use
Gwine Back to Dixie" with monologues
IN the pure rice plantation vernacular.
Among the selections by the orchestra
were one from Carmen, Fairy Tales
and Chinatown
The splendid chorus of Zelena was again
heard in its whisper Words of Love"
and its whistlng hit.
Come Where the Lindens Bloom" vocal
solo. was greatly appreciated, Mr.. John
NJ. Black singing it with the usual har-
mony of his notes. The Highland fling
was rendered by Miss Fannie
Whatley, and the mandolin ana
piano duet of Messrs. Max
Brock and w. c. Roehm was particularly
enjoyed.
The success of the programme, aside
from the individual talent of all those TAX
ing part, was attributed largely to the eff
forts of the manager and stage director
Mr. Black, and the musical director, Mr.
Roehm. Mr.. William Quinan's imperson-
atoms were very fine, and a feature of
the evening.

Guilty with another citizen, N. II. Up-
shaw Nearly six months rolled by and
as Mr. Chandler had not answered the
court summons, the council made some
INQUIRIES and at last ascertained that 1t
was his intention to utterly ignore both
the mayor and council. AZ last, however,
some of his personal friends made an APP
peal to him in favor Of law and good
government and he consented to stand a
trial. Last Wednesday the trial took
place and 1t was quite an event in the

acted as recorder fined Mr.. Chandler s.

50. Mr.. Chandler said most emphatically
that he would not pay the fine. Then
you can appeal the case" said the mayor,
'sby giving a bond for twice the amount
So" II won't give any bond" replied
the defendant. And saying this he walk
ed out of court to his store. one of his
friends offered to sign the bond, but Mr..
Chandler would not permit him to do So
The mayor and council told the marshal,
a Mr.. Smith, that he would have to ar
rest Mr.. Chandler and lock him up In
the calaboose TO serve out his time for
failing to pay the fine. The marshal went
to the store and Mr.. Chandler got behind
a counter where the knives We're kept
and simply defed the officer to take hold
of him. The marshal appealed for aid
but none of the citizens went to his as
sistance Then the marshal resigned.
The council has talked the matter over
but can come to no decision about the
problem.

A VESSEL BOTTOM UP.
brunswick Pilots Discover a FIont-
ing Wreck at Sen.


Brunswick, Ga, July IA sea tragedy
may be wrapped up in a floating vessel
sighted by pilots on the Oracle, No. 5, of
Brunswick off the bar yesterday. About
o'clock yesterday morning the Oracle
stood off from st. simons sea buoy, about
eight miles. Pilot Charles Sullivan noticed
drifting to the southwark a vessel. drift
ing bottom-up. With eacn rise and fall
of the sweeping waves her stern and name
plate was plainly visible. A skiff was low
cred and Pilots Loback, Inglebrest and
Sullivan pulled for the wreck, and as the
waves raised her stern out of the water
the name Katie S" appeared. She had
a white hun, with black name board Her
name Is carved into the board, and the
letters gilded. AS this class of work only
appears on fine vessels and pleasure
yachts, it is plain that some one has sus-
tanned the loss of valuable property If
there are not some bodies locked in the
cabin underneath the waves. The vessel
Is from fifty TO seventy-five tons bur
then.
A search of the government records dis
closes the fact that there is only one yes
sci of the name given ahoat She is 7441
tons net 7S5 feet in length, schooner rig
ged, and halls from San Francisco, where
she was built. There are but two con-
illusions to be reached either some yacht
has been wrecked in recent heavy weather
off the coast or the vessel is the same as
reported recently by the British steamship
Suez, which arrived at Limerick on July
5 from Baltimore. She reported that on
June 9. latitude g. longitude 81, she pass
ed an abandoned schooner or sloop named
Katie" with masts and part of her
headsail standing, and hold and cabin
Quilted. AS this was $50 miles from this
port the vessel would have to have been
drifting about three-quarter per hour with
the current this way to make St. Simon's
bar at the time reported by Pilot Sullivan.
