Jacques Francois Fromental Ellie Halevy, originally
Levy, was born in Paris (France), May II, 1899,
and died in Nice, March II, 1862. He the
of Jewish parents In 18O9he entered the Paris Con
servatory and studied piano with Lambert, and har-
mony under Berton.. The succeeding year he
prize for soleggio and likewise prize for harmony
in 1911. With Cherubin whose favorite pupil he
became, he studied counterpont and composition.
Eventually having perfected himself in the theory of
music, in 1916 he competed for the prize of Rome,
gaining the second prize. The following year he
again obtained the second prize and in 1919 his
tata, !" Herminie," carried off the great prize.
Haevy therefore, left for Rome, where he studied
the works of the Italian sacred writ rs under Bain
After several years of study he returned to Paris but
to meet with the same failure that of Others in
trying to receive hearing; his several works that
had been submitted for approval being rejected.
However, his perseverance rewarded in 1927,
when his act piece "L'Artisan," produced
in Paris, and gained for him a writer of
comic opera. The same year he was appointed pro-
lessor of harmony in the conservatory. Having
gained prominence through "L'Artisan," he
commissioned by the Italian Grand Opera to write
"Clari," in which Madame Malibran, renowned
vocalist, took the leading role
Not until 1885 did Halevy show full proof of his
genius, when, within period of to months he pro-
duced his two greatest works, " La Juive grand
opera in FIVE acts presented with enormous success,
and Il Ecar, comic opera of distinctly different

In a small bedroom In the rear OF the

her two children met death while asleep.

There were two beds In the room. On

On the other the two children lay side !

That the murders and suicide were
premedltated was evident. Matthews

were asleep. Then ne stripped himself

States senator to succeed the Hon. Ar
thur Puc German. whose present term
expires In March. 1882 That Rcpubh-
can will be chosen Is reasonably certain,
as that party has q majority in both
branches OF the general assembly. but
who the lucky man will be Is a matter
OF the greatest possible uncertainty.
The leading candidates at this time are
Judge Louis E. McComas, OF Washing
ton county; Major Alexander Shaw, OF
Baltimore city; General Thomas ].
Shryock. OF Baltimore City. and ex- Con-
gressman John V. L. Ftndlay, OF .Balt.-

who Is supported by the state adninis-
tration, Including United States Senator
Wellington. undoubtedly has the most
numerous following, and II q caucus
could b.. ,sad, would probably carry 1t
with ease
The sudden death OF Representative
Wright, OF Queen Annc's, and the In:
ubility o. Representative Malcolm, OF
Baltimore county, to attend because of
illness, reduces the Democratic repre-
sentatlon In the house to forty. while In
the senate they can muster hut eight. All
OF these will vote for Senator German,
the Democratic caucus nominee. The
Republicans have forty-ninc in the
house and eighteen In the senate, but
eleven OF these are not in harmony with
their party and this fact more than any
other casts doubt upon the final outcome
OF the struggle. ~ u = u
