The way Gounod earned the FIRST
money by his compositions is related by
the Freres Lionnet in their Memoirs"
They met him at the house of Escudier
In 1865. At that date he had already
produced his "Sappho," but at his own
expense. He asked tho Hornets, who
were then in vogue in the Paris salons,
to sing some Of his melodies. To en-
courage them he sat down to the piano
and sang a fow of them himself. They
admired them greatly, "Yes," he said,
everybody admires them, everybody
compliments mo on them, but no pub
Usher will bring them out. They are
said to be too difficult for the public. BY
the way, 1 have just composed song TO
the words Of Beranger entitled Mon
habit consider it one of my best
compositions, and think it would suit
you we'll" Thereupon he sang it.
Anatole Lionnet promised to sing it
the next evening and did so. He then
spoke to the publisher about it, but the
same objection was made. "Yes, ii is
charming, no doubt, said the publisher,
"but it will not sell. However, If NJ.
Lionnet will undertake to sing it for u
few nights will consent to publish it
and give Gounod 100 francs for IT. :"
Gounod joyfully accepted the modest

Said one of q group of turfmen in tho
cafe Of the Brewer House a night or two
ago: II shut up an old chap who was
railing against the wickedness Of racing
horses yesterday, and he was shut up so
tight that he stayed shut as long as
was about. 1t was ON the ferry cross
ing to go to the track, and he was hold
ing forth at a great rate to three young
men who sat near him and who had been
discussing the days card. They didn't
appear TO mind his lecture-in fact, they
seemed to rather enjoy it-but neverthe-
less thought I'd chip in and make a
bluff at shutting off his steam.

wins Guide, and said as solemnly as
could, Sir, you must be In error about
the utter wickedness of the turf, because
this little book shows that many racing
men select sanity names for their horses,
as, for instance, St. Anthony, St. Au-
gustine, st. Croix, st. Cyr, st. Elmo, st.
Hubert, st. John, st. Leona, st. Lucas,
st. Luke, St. Maxim, st. Mark, st.

Music the Kernel OF welsh Nature.

Music is the very soul and kernel Of
the Welsh nature. A musical ear is the
national birthright. Every Welsh preach
er who migrRtes to an English church
finds the greatest difficulty in abstaining
from that weird, peculiar intonation Of
his sermon which is known as the hwyl,
and which is often strange and objection.
able to English ears.
A remarkable and subtle fact which
will be interesting TO English readers
and at the same time significant of the
sensitiveness Of the Welsh musical car
is that 1t is positive discord to many
among the Welsh congregations If the
minister, in "giving out" the first verse
of the hymn, does not 80 pitch his voice
that 1t shall be in harmony with the key
In which the tune has preliminarily been
played by the instrumentalist.- West.
