An affecting1 tale about the artistio dignity ofRichard Strauss is told Ina recent Issue of tho"Musikalisches Wochenblatt.

"The writer Is

protesting against the projected performance of"Parsifal" In Amsterdam, and making the cus-tomary plea against the drama being put intoa repertory in which it might chance to Anditself cheek by Jowl with "Fleder-

maus"

He then relates that at a meeting of aGerman Goethe society called for the purpose ofaiding In the scheme to preserve "Parsifal" forBeyruth beyond the legal period of copyright, amember, a oertaln councillor, cried out: "Why

should not 'Parsifal' be performed to-day and'Flederroaus' to-morrow? Let htm who wantsto see 'Parsifal' go to 'Parsifal' and him whowants to see 'Fledermaus' go to 'Fledermaus.'

"The writer continues: "He. too, did not thinkof how unwortby It would be Ifthe same chor-isters who waitz to-^ay at Prince Orloftsky'sshould take part in the solemn function of theHoly Grail to-morrow. Iwas too polite to askhim: 'My dear friend, do you know the storyof "The Dog of Aubry"?' A certain Goethe wasof the opinion that if the poodle was to comethe poet would have to go. If Goethe hadthought like you he would have said, simply,"Let him who wants to see "Iphigenle" See"Iphigenie" to-day, and him who wants to see"The Dog of Aubry" go to-morrow to "TheDog of Aubry"; neither play will disturb theother.' But Richard Strauss, who was presenton the occasion, was not as polite as I. Hearose and said: 'Gentlemen, Idid not Imaginethat In the distinguished company of a Goethesociety Ishould ever mee^t with such completeIgnorance of the loftiest achievement of Ger-man art"

—said It and left the presence of the

amazed coclety."

An affecting tale assuredly. But Is not thisthe same Richard Strausß who. in New-York.conducted his own music one day In Carnegie

Hall, and the next in a department store? Thesame Richard Strauss who said to a New-Yorkmusician of eminence that he would clean storesif thereby he might earn money? The samegreat composer who thinks that he can delineatethe color of a woman's hair musically, and com-pose a tablespoon? Who lets a h.^by squall Inhis latest symphony, and asks \u2666'.le world tolisten to a domestic controversy about thebaby's bath in a double fugue that seems de-signed to depict the crack of doom? Are hislofty notions of art kept only for home con-sumption?

Mr. Safonoff has already found en imitatorA conductor named Hammer, who halls fromLausanne, Switzerland, recently conducted aconcert for Henri Marteau at the 81ngakademle

In Berlin without baton. In the same article Inwhich Dr. Schmidt, critic of the "Tageblatt,"refuses to give, his approval to the Innovation,he records also the appearance of a female con-ductor, Margarete Heumann, who directed aperformance of the choir in the Hochschule.The child conductor having long ago appeared,there would seem to be nothing of a sensationalnature left in this department except experi-ments with Dr. yon Billow's plan of givingoon-certs without a conductor.

At the farewell concert of Josef Hofmann andFritz Kreisler. In Carnegie Hall next Tuesdayafternoon, the two artists will play CesarFranck's sonata and Beethoven's "Kreutser."Mr. Kreisler will play the Dvorak "Humor-enQue." which he has made so popular, and Mr.Hofmann Liszt's transcription of the overtureto "Tannhauser." These among other things.

MUSIQ NOTES.

uation arose between them, th© precise cause of1which is not known. Greene Is believed to havemade an uncomplimentary remark regarding Gay-

nor's somewhat checkered matrimonial career. Atsay rate, a coldness which came near ending inopen rupture grew up between them. Only theirmutual interests held them together.

Even more disturbing to their friends— tothemselves. If it be true—is the report that theirfinances are running low. One estimate Is thatneither ha« more than $150.«» left out of the con-siderable sum they possessed a. few years ago; oth-ers credit th*ni with having much less than thesum mentioned, saying that they are. practicallypoor men. Added to this Is a report that Qajmoris broken In health to such an extent that, evenshould extradition be escaped, he would have astruggle to recover.

Such is the situation of the two men who hadhoped a few years ago to spend th« remainder oftheir lives in comfort and happiness. Instead, they

have had to flee their country, and are now face to

face with the possibility of spending. <1t may be.the remainder of their live*Inprison. i.'",It confirms the view that honesty la the best

policy. At present they are conSned In a Mon-treal Jail, awaiting the outcome 'of the extraditionproceeding*. There, it may be assumed, they havefew amusements. Their meals are sent them dallyfrom the Place Viper Hotel,."jy^iere their wives arestaying. Mrs. G»vnor and Vxs. Greene hay» shownthe utmost devotion to thftlr husbands in theirrecent troubles. They visit them every day at theprison and are probabljv almost the one brightapot in the.lives of the ;wo refugees.

A fine example of wifely devotion and of tbiof presence r>f mind in times of dancer occurred onthe farm or Judge Delehanky, in Kilkenny Town-ship, in this county.

When the bucket was down about fifteen feetfrom the top O'Rourke allowed his haada ta

-the handle of the windlass. The handle left hisgrasp, whirled around om-e. struck him under t!:ochin, and knocked him senseless. The release ofthe windlass and its sudden stoppaga again whenthe handle struck O'Rourka caused the 1break and the bucket to fall to the botto—,..f thewell. Tingley saving himself for the mowhanging with his finger .era's in the creiKisa i>f Iba•tone wall.

But It could not be for long. The effort was teegreat, and a minute more would see Tingley follow-ing the bucket fo the bottom, down to certaindeath. At this moment Mrs. Tlngiey. bringing themen their luncheon, arrived on the scene. She anwthe motionless body of the assistant near the well,and, glancing down, perceived her husband clingingto the wall. She fully realized his peril.

A FEMALE "COWBOY."Miss Lucille Mulhall. an Intrepid horsewoman,

willbe at the Horse Fair at Madison Square Gar-

den from April 24 to 29. where she will show bowa girl can ride a bronco, perform cowboy tricks

in the saddle, throw a lasso and rope a steer. She

is said to be the woman champion of the South-

west at roping steers, and her prowess Is at-

tested by a gold medal which was awarded to her

at the last Fort Worth cattle convention. At thisconvention a tournament was held, which drew

the most expert cowboys and riders of the plainsfrom Texas. Indian Territory. Oklahoma. Arizona

and New-Mexico.The. steers were picked out by lot from an im-

mense herd. Misa Muihall got two tough ones atthe start. The first one. a fierce looking animal.tossed the rope from his horns as it fell swishing

over him. On the second trial Miss Mulhall wasmore successful, and the steer was bowled over in

the dust, securely held. Ittook this eighteen-year-

old girl just one minute and forty-five seconds torope and tie the steer. The next one she did inone minute and eleven seconds, while the thirdBhe caught and tied in forty seconds.

The veteran cowboys dtd*their best to beat herfeat but their best was several seconds poorerthan the girl's. The plainsmen, who were gath-ered in large numbers to witness the contest,

broke forth In tremendous applause when thechampionship gold medal was awarded to thelirht. pale-faced girl. Miss Muihall. however, has

beaten the time she made in the tournament by

several seconds. She lias frequently roped a steer

In from twenty-flve- to twenty-eight seconds.
