A Disturber at a Rehearsal.

julius Eichberg writes; cat the occa-
sion Of musical festival in Dusseldorf
l witnessed a scene that produced gen
eral and not unjustifiable excitement
among those present. 1t was at the last
rehearsal of Beethoven's ninth or choral
symphony, and the great hall was filed
with people from near and far anxious
to hear the then but little known work.
While the orchestra played the first
movement we noticed a dark bearded,
spectacled, middle aged man in the au-
dience, who had a score before him and
was gesticulating wildly, being evident
ly very much dissatisfied with the per-
formance. Suddenly he arose, advanced
toward the orchestra and began to shout:
This is all wrong. 1t was not thus
that my immortal friend, Beethoven,
wanted his masterpiece to be played
You ought to play it much slower. and
in this way He began to beat time Wig
orously to the astonished musicians, en-
tirely ignoring Mendelssohn, who con-
Quoted the symphony. AT this moment
several people forcibly elected the dis
turber from the hall. The man was the
well known Professor Anton SCHNEIDER,
Beethoven's constant friend during the
last years of his life and the author of a
Biography of the Master. '"-Boston

Those who robbed the people by the
tarif found It SO profitable that they
schemed and tricked and deceived to rob
the workingmen also Getting higher
prices for their goods by law they de
termined that It would enhance their
profits TO pay less for labor by a eompeti
tion Of laborers. They imported ali
sorts aud conditions Of Continental pau
pers to compete with the American work
ingmen. Those paupers came with diff
ferent and Indifferent religions, but
chiefly with no religion at all. They
have no respect for Sunday and less re
spect for the "blue laws" which prohibit
them from desecrating Sunday.
