BuRLlNGTON,S BARON.


A Young Musician the Heir to Baronial
Estates i'm England.
By the recent death of Baron Emanuel
Won Liebich, in London, Eng, late last
month, his eldest son, Rudolph Won
Liebich musician and composer, who
now lives in Burlington, succeeds to the
baronetcy.
Early in September young stranger
alighted from a south-bound train at the
railwa, station in Burlington and
registered at one of the best hotels.
Being in poor health. he later sought
lodgings in a quiet street, and soon it
became known to musicians who CHANGED
to pass the house that pianist of ability
was an occupant of the place. He was
soon sought out by the best people IN
the city and invited to their homes,
where for a consideration he entertained
many of the upper set OF Burlngton's
10Th Century Club.
Musicales were arranged for at public
halls, which brought the young
man to the front. and when 1t became
known last week that he was a sure
enough baron. the breasts of those who
had been honored by an intimate ac-
quaintance with his lOrdship swelled
with much pride.
81 las born in Brighton. Eng" said
he TO newspaper correspondent, "in
the latter COS. my pare"t- being Baron
Emanuel Won Llebich and Baroness Won
Schonhausen, cousin of the late Otto
Won Bismarck Schonhauseu. AZ the age
of three | was much attracted to the
keyboard, and i'm 1850 | was sent 70 the
conservatory at Stuttgart, in Germany,
where for three years | studied piano
and composition under Faisst. Lehert and
Carl Schiller, distinguished disciple of
Franz List, whom. in 1882. | met per-
sonallv in Weimar, List having become
interested in some of nv compositions.
At the close of 1852 | went to T.eipslc
and remained a year, having been of
fered the musical dictatorship of Neun-
helm college in Heidelberg. From there
periodical visits TO London made me ac-
quainted with John Davidson. who was
about that time being hailed by Scotland
as the second Samuel Brandram in
Shakespearean and other readings, and
with Rim toured Scotland, which ended
to direct a new play of his, being staged
at the Lyceum, aud myself to be APP
pointed first pianoforte professor at the
London conservatory of music, where
also gave private instructions to promi-
nent people
Baron Won T.iebch claims an intimate
acquaintance with nOtables i'm England,
scotland. Wales, France. Germany. IIol-
land. Switzerland, Denmark. Norway
and sweden In the early 9O's he won a
first prize for a musical composition
given by persons in Philadelphia, his
effort being lullaby dedicated to the
Duchess of Fife.
III health has made it necessary for
the baron to give up hard work for the
present, and thus 1t is that Burlington,
which he describes as ian ideal spot to
spend year of comparative rest" is so
fortunate as to number him among her
pres ent residents.
