suIIivan's Apprenticeship.

Sir Arthur Sullivan has always had a
capacity, not only for clever but for ex-
ceedingly rapid work When a very
young man he desired some training in
the composition of operate music, and
with characteristic energy determined to
learn something of the technique of the
stage. He thereupon obtained a position
as organist for the opera in Coveut Gar
den, where his musical facility at once
came into general request.
On one occasion he was admiring the
borders" which had been painted for a
woodland scene.
yes said the painter, they are very
well, and If you could support them by
something suggestive in the orchestra, we
could get pretty Effect
Mr.. Sullivan at once wrote into the score
some delicate arpeggio work for flutes and
clarinets, and every one was quite happy
Next day, perhaps, the machinst would
say:
"Mr. Sullivan, the iron doesn't run as
easily in the slot as / should like. We
must have a little more music to cover il.
1 should like something for the 'cellos.
Could you do it?''
Certainly, Mr.. Sloman," the composer
would reply, gravely you have opened
a new pain OF beauty IN demonstration"
He at once added sixteen bars for tie
cello alone. No sooner was this done than
a solo dance was required, at the last mo-
ment, for a danseuse who had just arriv-
ed.
what on earth am I to do?' asked
the poor musician of the manager. 81

Sixteen bars of that. Then rum-tum. rum
tum, heavy you know. 16 bars. Then FIN
ish UP with the overture to William Tell

The composer sat down to his hurried
task, and in less than quarter of an
hour the work was ready.
These were base uses, perhaps for ge-
Mus, put they constituted an apprentice
ship.

A Food Insnection Law.

The Secretary of Agriculture is anxious
that Congress shall pass a law requiring
that all food products for export shall be
inspected and passed only when stamped
by the official inspector The idea of the
secretary seems to be not to prohibit food
adulteration by law, but to prohibit mis-
representation. The theory is that if pur-
chasers were put into possession of exact
knowledge of what they were buying, it
would not be a great while before the
production of bogus articles would be
wiped out practically, since there would
soon be very little if any demand for
them, and INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers
and spectators Would find the business
of making spurious food articles and adel-
terating pure articles to be an Improbable
business. All authorizations of food. how
ever, are not harmful to health. In the
case Of wheat flour adulterated with corn
meal, the mixture is probably as health
full and as nutritious as the pure -four;
nevertheless to sell the mixture under tn.
name of Wheat flour is a fraud upon the
purchaser.
We have already had some experience
with Germany growing out of our lack
of inspection laws. The discovery of GER
tain meats not up to the standard led to
an embargo upon all American meats
thereby injuring the producers not only CT
inferior meat products, but the producers
of first-class articles as well. If only the
perpetrators of the frauds in the matter
of adulterated and bogus food suffered
when their deceptions were found out IL
would not be so bad: but when a foreign
consumer discovers that the cheese which
he has purchased for full cream" is in
reality filled cheese" and that the but
ter which he has bought as "gllt edge
creamery is really oleomargarine. the
impression is at once created that all
American cheese and butter are pretty
much the same sort of things. Now filed

The Merchant Marine and the Navy.

The value os a merchant marine TO the
country for. defensive purposes has been
clearly indicated during the current war
furry. The navy has been strengthened
by levies upon the merchant craft for i'm
provised cruisers. and sailors OF the mer-
chant fleet have been invited to enlist for
service in the navy. Unfortunately. our
merchant marine is not very extensive,
hence the government has not been able to
secure a great number of vessels which
may be transformed into effective cruisers;
and for the same reason the enlistment of
experienced, able seamen has not been al
togther satisfactory. Some good ships,
and some good men, however. have gone
to the naval from the merchant marine
service. Indeed some of the best craft
in the carrying trade have been turned
from their peaceful duties 60 those of war.
How many Of the ships will return TO
freight and passenger carrying when the
war. or war scare, is over? That question,
of course. depends upon circumstances.
Many of them will probably become mer-
chant ships again, others will in all prob
ability be sent TO the bottom Gin the event
of hostllities), and still others will be. so
much changed by the necessary alterations
that must be made in order to prepare
them to bear arms that they will hereafter
be useless as commerce carriers, even if
the government should indicate purpose
to dispose of them later 10 shipping men.
Under existing circumstances it is proba-
BILE that few calculations extend beyond
the anticipated war; we are preparing for
that emergency, and not for what shall
come afterwards.
Congress, however. should take into con-
sidefation the condition of the merchant
marine, as it is and as it is likely to be
afler the war clouds shall have disappear
ed from the horizon. How is the mer-
chant marine to be recouped for its losses,
and made greater than ever before? The
most feasible and common-sense answer
seems to be- Give the American people free
ships; permit them to buy vessels wherever
they can be secured cheapest, with the
privilege of sailing them under the Amer
lean flag. Our antiquated navigation
laws are to blame for the decay of the
American merchant marine and the lack
of experienced, able seamen at the ports
ready 10 volunteer for the defense of the
government. Had the country been given
free ships ten years ago, there is reason
for thinking we should have had larger
and better merchant fleet to draw upon
for auxiliary cruisers, and an army of
trained seamen to man such craft. Free
ships would not only aid in rehabilitatng
the merchant feet, but would be move
ment in the direction of conserving the ma
tional defenses.
