A Few stories About Musicians.

A Few stories About Musicians.
HAYDN liked to dine alone, and he was
such great eater that he was sometimes
called the ''greedy musician" 1t was
his custom to order dinner for five per-
sons at his favorite hotel, and at the
appointed hour to devour the whole BAN
4uet.
"Serve dinner" he ordered on one &C.
cssion to new waiter, who was not
aware of the musicians way of sustain
ing himself.
"The dinner ia ready" returned the
waiter, "but, sir, the company is not
come.
"De company" Haydn retorted con-
temptuously. "Poohl de company l
am de company"
The dinner for five was forthwith put
before ''de company" and not an eata'
BILE scrap of it found its way back to the
kitchen.
Beethoven, when thinking over one of
his sonatas, would walk for hours with a
companion without uttering q single
word. At other times he would sit and
play for hours at his piano, and was
very much incensed If anyone
happened to overhear him. But his
strangest habit was to walk about his
room in reverie, pouring pitchers OF
cold water over his hands alternately,
till the floor was completely drenched,
and people came running up stairs to
learn the cause of the deluge. The coun.
try people who knew him were careful
not to disturb him when the mood of
composition was upon him. Once troop
of charcoal burners met him in path,
and they all stepped to one side, though
laden with bushels of charcoal, to let
him pass, for fear of disturbing his medi-
tations.
Meyerbeer found his imagination most
lively during a thunderstorm, and the
reverberations are heard in his music.
Halevy liked to sit by his fire and
Listen to the singing of the kettle.
Auber received most of his ideas while
on horseback, and his music is light and
rapid.
Sacchini worked surrounded by his pet
eats.
Paesiello composed his best music
while lying in bed.
Sarti found that his imagination had
free vent in a dark room.
Adolphe Adam got his ideas while
buried under an eider-down quilt
Gluck composed best out of doors in a
meadow, with his piano and bottle of
champagne.
Paganini had his eccentricities. He
was surly when the glow of composition
was upon him, and worked with his coat
and vest off, the slipper of his right foot
kicked aside, and his left suspender
dangling down his back. This pleasing
anecdote is told of him: One day, when
at Florence, he jumped into cab and
gave orders to be driven to the theatre.
The distance was not great, but he was
late. and an enthusiastic audience was
waiting to hear him perform the famous
prayer of "Moise' on single string.
Chow much do owe your" he asked
Of the driver.
"For you." said the man, who had
recognized the great violinist, "the fare
is ten francs"
"Whst! Ten francs? You are surely
jestingb."
81 am speaking seriously. You charge
as much for seat at your concert"
Paganini was Silent for an instant;
then, with complacent glance at the
rather too witty driver, he zaid:
81 will pay you ten francs when you
drive me upon one Wheel."
He then rendered two francs, which
amount was acce pted.-[ From the Epoch.
