Miss Thursby's Nightingale.

A very pretty story is told of night.
ingale owned by Miss Thursby, and which
accompanied her on her travels, as fol-
lows:
She had given 4 concert at Prague be-
fore an aristocrstic audience, in which
each person We'd with his neighbor in
doing her honor. Plaudits and presents
were showered upon her, and people Won
dered how it was that the noted
melOmaniac and conncisseur. Prince
Wittgcnstein, should have given no prac-
.;cal token Of the admiration which he ex-
pressed. Next day tho prince called at
her hotel, accompanied by servant
carrying bird cage. Mademoiselle." I"
lie said, (" 1 am at loss to express fifty
my rapture at your singing consider
that there is not ON earth one other voice
like yours. Let me beg You to accept this
pair Of nishtingaies as souvenir :: I
own nothing more precious. Pray teach
them how to sing" All of this might
have passed for neatly turned
compliment if the nishtingales had been
ordinary nightingales, but they were 4
good deal more than ordinary birds, they
we're historical birds, and the red cross
mark upon their breasts indicated them
to be the lineal descendants of couple Of
warbiers brought from Palestine by a
crusading ancestor of the prince, who.
taken prisoner at the siege of
Jerusalem, had been solaced always
during his long captivity by their
visits to his dungeon window. When
the knights ransom had been paid he
asked that his feathered friends might be
given to him. The Soldan consented, and
from that time there has always been one
couple and no more red cross nightin-
ga'es in the family of Wittgenstein, from
which they passed into the possession of
Miss Thursby and, as one Of the birds
has died without heirs, the race will be.
come extinct tho survivor is as lively as
cricket, but it disdains any mate of less
exalted parentage, and thus ends the
legend of the Bohemian nightingale, from
whose notes the prima donna has learned
her " Chanson d'Oisseau.''
