A NIGHT IN GAOL.
OHERNIAVSKY’S PLIGHT. LONDON, June 28. Mischel Cherniavsky, the cellist, was fined an amount equal to double the duty on several bottles of scent. He told the magistrates at Folkestone that he visited Boulogne to say good-bye to his sons before leaving for South Africa. Their nurse asked him to bring a bag to England, and did not describe the contents, which were bottles of scent. Cherniavsky, who was without a passport, spent a night in the colls. A policeman recognised him, and pleaded foi a ’cello solo. He brought a violin and Cherniavsky played it as if it were a ’cello the police applauding.
