FIotow, the Dead Composcr.

The Baron Won Flotow who has just died
at Wiesbaden at the age of seventy, might per-
haps have been great musician If he had not
been baron. II was not q very eminent title,
but 1t was sufficient to entail u curse on his
life He wanted to be musician, and lis
father, the proud old baron of the story books.
insisted on his making good marriage and
did in fact, marry him TO a woman whom he
he did not love and who loved another man.
As result, Flotow ran away, which was
probably the best thing to do, and devoted
himself successfully TO his art The Duke of
Mecklenburg made him his chapelmaster,
and his operas, or some of them, were re-
ceived with favor. But when he married the
sister of his divorced wife he lost his place
and fell away from all descent associations,
and his genius was not large enough to save
him from the obscurity in which he
sank. When his blindness was spoken of in
the papers short time ago it doubtless sur
prised most readers to learn that he was still
alive. And yet the composer of "Stradella"
and of " Martha" deserves not to be forgotten,
IL is true that the former is largely due to
Niedermeyer and that the latter owes much
of its success to the use of an Irish melody,
but it is good music, all the same-melodious
and sincere and written with correct knowl-
edge and good taste No others of Flotow's
operas destrve to be named with these, though
" THE Wreck of the Medusa," "The Phan-
tom" and one or two others have furnished
some music TO the popular orchestral roper
tory, and even "Stradella" only survives in
the overture. But tho bright, happy, fluent
melody of Martha" will not easily die, and
the aurhor of work which has given so much
true enjoyment to SO many people all over the
world ought to be held in careful remcm-
branCe

ing on the urgency of the passage of the

in danger of financial ruin on account of the

that the banks are as much involved as tho
trade, He said that over S60,000,000 was now
loaned out on stock, and a crash would como
very soonif some day is not set for considera-
ton of the bill in order to relieve the trade
and banks from the doubts they now labor
under, as to whether or not anything will be
done by congress in the matter There was
no expression by the committee as to what it
will favor, but there is some talk of agreeing
to the holding Of night sessions for the pur-
pose of considering the bill urged by Mr..
Butterworth.
