It has, with his numerous other compositions, made him a for tune, in striking contrast with such writers as poor Stephen Foster and John Howard Payne, whose best works served only to enrich the pub- fishers who were so fortunate as to obtain their entire control.
 Probably no American song has a more curious history than the favorite college melody, "It Was My Last Cigar" The words were written some forty years ago by a student at Yale college named CoDdit, and handed to James M. Hubbard-now an important government mail off, cial, but at that time professor of music at Yale-for him to set to music This MT. Hubbard did at 6 single sitting, and the Ms. was sent to New York for publication. A copy right was then secured by filing in the office of the probate court in each county. Hubbard took . proof sheet of the song, and handed it with the fees to . Mr. Cleveland, who was . clerk in the office of Probate Judge BlackmaD, and gave no more thought to the matter for some time. The song spread from college to college, and after . year or two the author found that it was being published all over the country without either credit or pecuniary benefit to him. self.
 On hastening to claim his royalties, Mir. Hubbard was defied and told that

To readers fond of literary topics few subjects are of greater interest than the circumstances attending the composition ot their favorite poems and ballads. But while this informa- tion as regards poetry is quite plenty, our knowledge of song writers and their methods is comparatively mea- gre. Almost the only exception to the usual obscurity of song writers is John Howard Payne, of whom more has probably been written and printed than of all others combined. Never theless, as much that has appeared in relation to his famous song, "Home, Sweet Home," has been purely imag- mary, we may perhaps be pardoned if we introduce here the true story of the composition of this far famed melody.
 It was in Italy that Payne first heard the air for which his song was written. AS he was strolling one morning along quiet country road he was struck by the sweet voice of a peasant girl, who was carrying to the city basket laden with flowers and fruit. The plaintive air which she drilled with so much sweetness and simplicity at once caught his fancy. He accosted her, and after few mo- ments' conversation asked the name of the song, which she was unable to give. However, using his knowledge of music to good purpose, he requested her to repeat the air, while he pro- ceeded to write down the notes. He soon afterwards composed the words, and with the aid of musician named Bishop, welded them to the Italian air, incorporating the song into his opera of "Clari," which soon gave it world wide fame.
 It is unnecessary here to rehearse the subsequent history of this song or its author. It is sufficient to say that the song made the fortune of every one connected with. it except its com poser, who not only lost the payment he should have had for the copyright, but was not even complimented with a copy of the music by the publisher, who made over 1000 guineas by the immense number of copies that he printed and sold.
 The popular impression that the author of "Home, Sweet Home" was without home or friends-that he wandered friendless and forsaken through the streets of foreign cities, hearing his song sung in happy homes while he himself was homeless and un- known-is very affecting, but has little foundation in fact. Payne was cosmo- politan from choice, and had many friends among the leading authors and actors of his day, who loved him for his kindness of heart and his many personal attractions. 1t is true that he experienced more than his share of the pecuniary misfortunes 90 common to his profession while abroad, but his early life in America was more than ordinarily pleasant and prosperous.
 The only rival to Home, Sweet Home" is s. c. Fosters ssOld Folks at Home" As musical critic has just said, had he not made the words of the song local by introducing the Suwanee river, 1t might we'll have equaled the former as the home song of the world.
 Stephen Collins Foster was . strangely retiring and difident author, and some of his most beautiful songs were composed under the most incon- gruous conditions. A writer who met him in New York in 1852 says that his favorite haunt was in . tumble down

Songs and Song Writers.

BY CHARLES F. ADAMS.
, 1888-09-28

Recently there was a gathering Of
young married couples in Louisville, and
the conversation turned on the name in
which the wives had secured their hus-
bands. One had paved the way to the
altar by making a face at the fated one
because she thought he had stared at her
impudently. He admired her mettle, and
sought an introduction. Another made
the acquaintance of the man who is now
her husband by accidentally sousing him
with a pan of dishwater, which she tossed
out of the kitchen window into an alley
just in time to catch him as he was pass
ing. The one that was, however, voted
to be the most novel was the experience
of a young man connected with the mu-
nicipal government. The latter was in
the habit of passing. on his way home,
the residence of the young lady who is
now his better half, and one evening, out
of a spirit of mischief, she accidentally
on purpose" turned the hose on him. He
faced about, blushed violently, and stam-
mered a thank you" in response to her
roguish smile, and from that moment he
knew he was fated.-Chicago Herald.
