HAYDN AND THE LADIES.
Wonderful Susceptibility of the
Great Composer.


Great Composer.
When Haydn came to England. he
Succumbed, says the writer OF an arti-
Gle on Music and Matrimony' in the
Cornhll Magazine, to the charms of
certain Mrs. Shaw, who figures in his
diary as the most beautiful woman he
had ever met. AS a matter of fact,
Haydn was always meeting the most
beautiful woman.
"rhe loveliest woman l ever saw"
was at one time Il Mrs. Hodges, while
at another time the widow Of musi-
clan named Schroeder so fascinated
him that he kept her letters for many
years and declared that if it were not
for the existence of Anna Maria he
would have married her. Certainly
Mrs. Schroeter's letters were pleasant
enough. Every moment of your COM
pany." she wrote from Buckingham
Cate in 1892, is more and more pre-
cious to me now that your departure is
so near. feel for you the fondest and
tenderest affection the human heart is
capable of. ever am. with the most
most beloved Haydn, most faithfully
and most affectionately yours"
What would the absent Frau Doc
TORN Haydn have said had she known
of it? The composer also got. mixed up
in little affair with the beautiful Mrs.
Ellington. Sir Joshua Reynolds was
painting her portrait for him and had
represented her as st. Cecilia listen
ing to celestial music. "What do you
think Of the charming Billingtou's pic
ture?" said the artist to Haydn when
the work was finished. at is indeed
a beautiful picture" replied Haydn.
1T is just like her. but there is a
strange mistake. You have painted her
listening to the angels when you ought
to have painted the angels listening to
her.
II Haydn paid compliments like this
all round, we can easily understand
how he attained such fame as a Lon
don society man.

THE CAPTAINS STORY.
He Spins II Yarn About n Wonderful
Recovery on Shipboard

A little group had been spinning
yarns in the rotunda of the Walton for
an hour or more when a bronze
visaged, middle aged man Joined the
party. Several of the group recognized
him as the captain of one of the big
tramp steamers which ply between
Philadelphia and foreign ports, and q
place in the circle was at once made
for him.
"We've been killing time telling sto-
ries." some one explained Suppose
you turn in your contribution"
The captain thought moment and
then smiled.
81 was thinking of something that
happened on my last voyage" he final
ly said I'VE had on board as a cook
q big colored fellow, whose principal
companion was Il little yellow cur dog.
One day While the cook was preparing
some beef for dinner he let the heavy
cleaver with which he was doing the
chopping slip from his grasp.
ut fell to the floor with a thud, and
the cook emitted a howl of anguish
that was heard all over the ship. The
clcaver had struck one of his bare feet
and sliced the big toe off as neatly as
q surgeon could have done it. Here
was Il chance for the yellow dog. and
he seized it. Making a dive for the
severed toe, he swallowed it in one
gulp and then made a bee line for the
deck.
''This was more than the cook, GRAZ
ed with pain, could stand, and he hurl-
ed the cleaver at the dog. His aim
proved true, and his curship passed out
of existence then and there. At this
juncture the ships doctor came up to
find out what all the row was about.
When he learned the truth, he laughed.
"'I'll fix that for you,' he exclaimed
to the cook. wait till get my instru-
ment case
"Within five minutes he had held a
post mortem on the dog and recovered
| the lost toe. Washing it with antisep-
tics, he skillfully stitched it back in
place again, and the cook hobbled back
to his quarters minus his dog, but with
as many toes as he had ever had
