1t is hoped that every lover of good
music will take advantage of the OPP
portunity to hear Mrs. Fannie Bloom
field Zeisler on March H. Savannah is
to be congratulated upon it's success in
having her here. In Chicago, her home
and where her popularity is unques-
toned, she seldom consents to appear
on the stage more than once a year.
She is without doubt the most distin-
guished American pianiste and too
much can not be said in her praise.
1t was my happy privilege only few
weeks ago to hear her on two differ
ent occasions in Chicago. Once at the
Auditorium, where she was paid the
compliment by her townspeople of at
tracing the largest audience at any
public concert of the Chicago Orchestra
in the last three years, and again at
her annual piano recital in Music
Hall, where every seat was taken. She
Is a musician of rare ability, and her
delightful interpretations of Schu-
mann, List, Chopin and other grand
composers can not be excelled
one number of her programme, "En
Forme d Etude" (Arabesque op As. No.
-, by Leschetizky was dedicated to
Mrs. Zeisler. She has just returned
to Chicago from a triumphal tour of
the principal cities of Continental Eu-
rope. She owns three pianos and for
public recitals always uses her Stein
way concert grand
Mrs. Zeisler is accustomed to the
applause of large audience, and it is
to be hoped that Savannah will not be
backward in paying her this tribute
of admiration. j. M. G.

The Baby Interviewed.
A Western representative in Con-

little matter of a claim through the

not altogether satisfactory to the per-
sons most interested in the claim. The
head Of the family-who is a woman

lobbying and as an initial step she ar
ranged Il dinner party in honor of the
Western congressman and his wife.
The invitation was accepted and
promptly upon the day and hour
named there arrived for the dinner
the Representative and his wife and
also their eight-months-old offspring.
The baby could not be separated from
its mother, so 1t had to come to the
dinner and 1t had to come to the table,

Very naturally, 1t steered the dinner

merely the willy method of the West

charge from a feminine constituent.

AN UNUSUAL SITUATION.

Negro Woman Says 1t Is Against
Public Policy for Her White Hus-
band to Prosecute Her.
Declaring that Charles Tutty is her
husband, and has been for many years,
Rosa o. Tutty, through her attorney,
w. NJ. Hayward, filed a demurrer to
the proceedings in trover instituted
against her by him, in the Superior
Court yesterday. The woman is a
negress, and the man white. The
grounds of the demurrer are that ii is
against public policy for her husband
to prosecute her.
The proceedings are familiar to read
ers of the Morning News. The suit
was instituted for the purpose of OBJ
tanning several thousand dollars worth
of bonds which, the husband alleges,
his wife holds from him. She declares
that the bonds were lost by her while
in an unconscious state in hospital.
The argument on the demurrer will no
doubt prove interesting.
