Low AND sCHoTT.

II had always been pet ambition
with that greatest OF all pianists,
Franz Listz. to bring BerlioE into the
kindly graces OF the Germans. Liszt
was leader OF the Grand Opera at Vi
emma. which for while was Goethe's
home. and had made repeated unsuc-
cessful attempts TO forward this aim,
In 1854 he entered upon the last de-
termlned struggle TO produce Berlloz's
Opera Benvenuto Celllni on the stage
there. But at the very outset he was
balked; the tenor, who was to take
the title role, declined absolutely. In
spite OF contract. 20 accept such q
difficult part. or Course Liszt was de-
termined on his side, and took the mat
ter TO court. The question pended
two years, and then in 1854 was finally
decided unreservedly in favor OF the
tenor Schott heard a good deal about
the matter from both LisEt and Hans
Won Bulow and became fired with the
determination to be victor in this un-
I'll yet, unconquered field. He put
himself to the task and reaped noble
reward. When the offending role was
mastered the first production Of Ben
venuto Celllni took place at the Court
Theater at Hanover, and introduced to
the world one Of the greatest works
ever written.
This event, so important In the
musical world was in the year 1879
At last Lis1t had been satisfied after
% years of waiting. But on the first
night the doomed finger seemed to be
pointing at them. All proceeded beau
tifully until they came to the most
trying scene, schott (Benvenuto) was
just declaring his love to Theresa, in
that celebrated trio. when sudden
upward glance revealed the whole
space overhead bursting into flames.
Without a perceptible vince the song
went stolcally on until the soprano
caught sight of burning rag falling
and quite forgetting the burning heart
of her lover she fell fainting into an
armchair, The baritone rival await
ing his call, could easily steal away
and schott was left to brave 1t alone.
Conscious Of his peril, but knowing
that the first sign Of alarm would set
the whole vast assemblage in panic,
he stood firm. even when the people
became uneasy through some starry

Captain Chas. d. Stuart, OF the
Candy light house station, is in the
city to remain until the regatta festiv-

friend of Captain stuart tells story
concerning him, which not only is OF
recent origin, but indicates the ohlv-

According to the narrator, on July
cath last, the captain and his men
were exploring on Clatsop Spit, when
one of them dlscerned in the distance
a fishing boat plunging in the blllows
and flying signals of distress. The
ocean at the time was lashed by a
furious tempest, and the breakers were
