A DISASTROUS ENDING
TO An ATTEMPT To Make Display Of Musical
Talent.

| a harmless but ludicrous joke was
recently played on an Augusta man of
musical propensities that is too good
| to cover with the veil of silence. 1t is
| hoped that the victim viii suffer no
| annoyance therefrom.
He is musical TO the backbone. That
fact is undenable, and it was nothing
| out of the common when he dropped
| in on Water street business man.
| also of musical inclination, and pro-
posed that he accompany him TO a
| certain hall, while he tried a few pieces
| of his own composition on the ORGAN
! The other was perfectly agreeable and
made an appointment for an hour
| later.
1t 50 happened that three other gen
tlemen. also musicians (there are many
of them in Augusta happened in on
the business man. and he told them of
his engagement. Three heads We're put
together, and the result is this nara
ton.
Promptly at the hour agreed upon
the two betook themselves TO the
hall, and the gentleman who had ex-
tended the invitation seated himself al
the organ with very classical piece
in which he took much pride. as he
had composed it by the exertion Of his
own musical talent. He began and the
strains filed the hall. Notice this
place particularly he said. 1T is very
harmonious" Che is a great man for
harmony. and he pressed on the keys
with the artists earnestness to bring
out the full beauty of the chord. 4

and minors so interminglcd that the
great Beethoven must have turned in
his grave, far across the sea.
Why. what's the NATTER" asked the
business man.
Il can't imagine" was the reply. II
will try it again"
Another trial was made but the re-
suit was worse than before and the
business man put his fingers in his
ears to keep out the awful discord.
The organ is bewitched," exclaimed
the musician. his face as red as the
rose in June. II won't play any more"
The words were no sooner out of his
mouth than the sound of the "Cripple's
March" came from the small organ on
the other side of the room. He had
turned in that direction when the big
organ began to sound the notes of the
piece he had just been trying to play.
Turning quickly he saw young man
sitting in the place just vacated by
him. playing the music with VIII.
Realizing that he was the victim of a
practical joke. he seized the music and
rushed from the hall and the building,
followed by roars of laughter.
One of the three plotters had con-
cealed himself inside the big organ
and when our composer put forth all
his ability to bring out softness ana
harmony. the joker had manipulated
the inside mechanism with the above
result. The music from the small or
gan came from another of the three
who had concealed himself behind the
curtains. Although the conspirators
were cruel enough to prevent grand
DISPLAY of original talent, they were
heartIess enough to relate the incident
50 that it came to the ears of a Jour
nal man.
