MUSICAL TREAT.
Excellent Piano and Song Recital at
Harmonic Hall.

Harmonic Hall.
One of the most enjoyable of the sea-
sons musical events took place last
evening at Harmonic hall The coca
sion was the piano and song recital
given by Alma Webst er-PoWell and
Eugenio de Pirani. Last evenings en-
tertainment was a continuance of the
series of recitals which have recently
been given by these two artists on the
continent and in England.
Bach-Litszts Prelude and Fugue in
A minor was most effective. Eugenio
de Pirani's technique is most admira-
BILE. His Interpretation of Chopin s
Scherzo in B minor was excellent in its
strength and sympathy of touch. In
the second part of the programme he
introduced several selections of his own
compositions of which the most worthy
were the Tarantella, Double Note
Etude and Tyrolienne.
Alma WebsterPoWell's voice is one
of singularIy refined quality. Her rem
dition of Delibe's Indian Bell Songs be-
tokened a degree of cultivation quite
beyond the usual prima donna. Her
range is phenomenal After her "aria''
from Mozarts Magic Flute" she was
presented with a magnificent bunch of
roses. Her personality is interesting,
pleasing and magnetic. She quite cap
tivated her audience in her love songs,
Her "Danses au Chateau" and waltz
song were exquisite in their rendering.
the accomplishments by de Pirani add
ing greatly to their effect.
Musical New Haven was extremely
well represented.

ris, negro porter on Pullman car
between Washington and Jacksonville,
was turned over to the police here last
night for being drunk and disorderly.

negro off the train he resisted, and
this charge was also preferred against
him. 1t seems that Harris tanked up
on mean whisky before his train pulled
out from Jacksonville yesterday even
ing. and he became unruly and very
abusive toward the conductor and 9TH
ers before the train arrived in Way
cross. Before Mayor Youmans this
morning Harris was fined $25 or 60
days. The fine was paid.
1t is now up to the Southern Bell
