Minstrel Performance
And Band Concert to be Given
BY the Henderson Concert Band
Friday Night, December 10Th
Elaborate Program Arranged
for the Occasion.

Below we publish the program of
the band concert and minstrel enter
tainment tn be given at the Grand
Theatre. Friday night, December
10th, by the Henderson Concert
Band. This will no doubt be a cred
liable performance and the young
gentlemen who are getting it up de-
serve to have a full house. Some
good talent will be represented-all
our home boys-and we know what
Henderson can do when she tries.
The object for which they are trying
to raise money is one that ought to
appeal to all our people-for the bene-
fit of the band-to pay for their in
struments and uniforms and salary
of the instructor.
1t is creditable to these young men
that they are giving their time and
money toward providing a good
brass band for the town. Such an
organization is needed in every town
and our people generally ought to
feel lively interest in it and help to
support it. They can do this in a
measure by attending the perform
ance on the evening of the Goth.
Mr.. B. s. Aronson is coaching the
minstrel part of the entertainment
and Mr. C. E. Pope, instructor and
leader of the band, has charge OF the
music end of it.
Miss Norma Britt will be accom-
PIANIST.
The program is as follows:

A young woman of neat appearance,
and claiming to be the wife of Viii
liam H. Hill, in whose company she
was found, was arrested Sunday after
noon by Captain Wilde and Deputy
Johnson Hill was also arrested. The
couple is held at the police station
pending an investigation.
The cause of the arrest of the
couple, both of whom are strangers
here, was that the woman was mas
querading in mans attire, and with a
few exceptions was a good imitation
of an 18-yeaz-old boy. The couple
was seen late Sunday afternoon going
from the Bay hotel towards PalafOx
wharf. PartiesinOticed the strange ap-
pearance of the one who at first ap-
peared to be a boy, and notified Dep
uty Sheriff Johnson. The latter i'm
mediately staEted1 an Investigation, and
after seeing the couple, decided that
the boy was a woman in mans cloth
ing. He called in Captain Wilde and
the two were placed under arrest on
board the steamer TarpOn. on which
they had taken passage for Mobile.

quest of the telegraphers employed
by the Associated Press for Increased

given for reply, 1870 p. m. today,

At the police station the woman de-
MED her sex, and claimed she was the
son of William H. HILL The latter
also made the same claim, but when
they saw that the officers were de-

man had disguised herself by cutting
off her hair and DOMINIC a suit of

that her reasons for doing this were
that she had married Hill against the
wishes of the man who had reared
her, and she was afraid that if the
man. should overtake them he would
kill her They claimed to have come
to this city Sunday morning from Ay-
