The family of Sczechenyi is one of the oldest antl most prominent in Hungary, of Magyar stock, the owner of patriarchal estates and for generations the patrons of the arts. Those familiar with the lives of Haydn and Schubert will remember that they were employed at different times in the Esterhazy family, a similar house. The heads of these old noble families were like kings, and ruled in a royal way over an immense territory. The present family of Sczechenyi, however, has- been reduced in number and riches like-the royal families, they "die out." A grandson of the great Count Stephen Sczechenyi recently married Miss Glady Vanderbilt. Philip Fahrbach's fame is somewhat overshadowed by that of his father, a popular composer of dances and other light music. The family is of Vienna, the grandfather having been a flute virtuoso, composer and conductor in the early part of last century. 2. Qverture-"THE . FLYING DUTCHMAN." Rrcnano WlcNrn. While Wagner was still a young man, before he had made a repdtation as a musician, he went to Paris with the hope of bettering his fortunes. Paris was then the center of the world of art. Meyerbeer was at the height of popularity, and Wagner felt that if he could only have a hearing before a cultured and intelligent audience, his fortune would be made.

It is ,much to be feared that Leoncavallo has written his best, and like Mascagni, will have to depend on one opera to perpetuate his fame. . ENTR'ACTE. THE GREAT VIOLIN MAKER. . From Sandys & Foster's 'lHistory oi the Violin.r' Antoine Stradivarius was descended from an old family at Cremona, and was born there about the year 1644, as there is an instrument of his in existence having a ticket written by him with the date 1736, stating his age, ninety-two. He was a pupil of Nicolas Amati, and made after his model, until about the year r@ro. From the year r67q however, he placed his own in his instrument, having for the three previous years placed that of his master. "Luthomonographid' describes an instrument of the date of r58r, of a long form, with the back in two parts, made of fine wood, and the varnish brown, bordering on red. In the year r@ro he altered his style, and name. the proportions ofrhis instrument; his model was larger, and the fgrm of his arching somewhat flatter, the gra.dation of the thickness of the vibrating plates more strictly regulated, and the choice of wood .carefully attended to; but he still retained some similarity of the workmanship of his master. His best instruments were made from about rToo to t7?5, and these apprbached nearest to perfection. The wood united beauty with great capibility for con. CONTINUED ON PAGE 19 The SOHMER-CECILIAN .

Scotch and Irish imagination. For imagination and industry are the two prime requisites of genius. Tom Moore, the authoi: of Lalla Rookh, was one of this glorious company. Besides having the gift of verse, he was a man of wide education and exquisite taste and a musician of no mean ability. Oriental subiects have always had the fascination of mystery for us prosaic Westerners, and Nfoore's poem has been the inspiration of many composers. The Kroeger Suite is taken from that source, as well as Rubinsteinfs opera from which we are playing today some of the ballet music. I-ulla Rookh, thi diughter oi the Sultan of Delhi, has been betrothed to the Prince of Kashmir, and on attaining the proper age, sets out for the capital of her future husband, where the nuptials are to be celebrated. Her father, well advanced in years, feels unable to undertake the journey, but depntes his vizier to conduct the party in his stead. The immense cavalcade, to uphold the dignity of the greatest Prince in India, stretches for miles. Besides the soldiers sent to prevent attacks from hostile tribes, a special guard of soldiers of the palace attend. Hundreds of servants and animals aie provided, as well as maids of honor, dancing girlg acrobats and musicians. The one mistake, however, is the selection of Feramors, a handsome young poet, to beguile the tedious houri of the iourney with original tales and poems. He relates the stories of the Veiled Prophet of Khorassan, of Paradise an-d the Peri and such like, until Lalla Rookh wishbs the journey would never end.

No city had paid. such honors to composers of dance music as ry g' Vienna showered on Lanner, Strauss, Ziehrer, Fahrbach and Komzak. Johann Strauss wrote more than three hundred waltzes, many of which have genuine musical merit, as well as the indescribable quality which sets the feei going. gr" F F v , Do You Wear The Best Gloves Made? $r'.tsni';ir"liE ' .Sold c*clurively in St. Louis at N rne rretolsl@res +oio;' won \=$& -"--;E1-\|R the hlghest awards at ail ,t"""t *"rld'" "r The Trafousse glolcs are ', always ahsolately aorrect ln stvle. color. flt and finlsh MADE TO"MATCTI TfiE \.ft _-ak) Y YA \ I HANDSOMEST GARMENTS 2' I @, for Subscribers P Miss G.
