There are very few editors who will

HAYDN'S H WIFE.
Married Her Instead os Rsr sister
Merely to Obiixe His Fa-
ther-in-LAw.

Haydn married. not the girl he W.
in love with, but her sister. Haydn.
you should take my oldest daughter"
said Father Keller, the barber, and,
as Keller hal done a good deal for
Haydn, the composer felt that he must
sacrifice his affection on the altar Of
duty and oblige the old man. Al the
time OF the marriage, in i76O, Haydn
was 30, while his Anna Maria WA ~.
There does not appear TO have been
much love on either side to start with,
but Haydn declared that he had really
begun 10 like" his wife, and would
have come to entertain u stronger feel
ing for her II she had behaved In a
reasonable way. Unfortunately, Anna
Maria had neither rhyme nor reason in
her composition. The entertaining
Maryille says that the majority OF la
dies married TO men OF genius are 80
vain of the abilities of their husbands
that they are frequently insufferable.
But Frau Haydn was not n lady of that
kind. The world had emphatically
proclaimed her husband a genius, but
to Maria 1t was quite immaterial wheth-
er he were a cobbler or an artist. Nay,
she even committed the incredible
crime Of using the composers manu-
script scores for curling paper, as un.
derlays for pastry, and similar thingsl
She was gay enough with 1t all. too.
When Haydn went from home she
would send him the most cheerful little
notes. "Should you die to-day or to-
morrow" ran one Of these missives,
there is not enough money left Ia the
house to bury you" At another Lne,
when Haydn was in London. he re-
ceived a letter in which maria wrote
that she had just seen a neat little
house which she liked very muca. and
that he might do himself the pleasure
to send her 1000 gulden with which 10
buy II, so as TO have In future n "wid-
ow's home" Pleasant reading this
for the genial composer! In the first
ease he wrote, without q trace of anger:
should this be so. take my manu-.
scripts to the music publisher. I guar.
antee you that they will be worth
money enough to defray my funeral ex.
penses." In the matter Of the widows
home" he thought II would be best 10
arrange things himself. Ultimately he
bouht the house, and in spite Of Maria's
frequent suggestions Of his coming dis
solution, he lived in il for nine years
after she had been dead. Frau Haydn
saw out her 20 years, bu, some time be-
fore that the pair had agreed TO live
apart as the best way Of ending a union
which had proven utterly unbearabls
to the eomposer.-Cornhill Magazine.

BIG GALAPAGOS TURrLRa


From the Galapagos islands the
schooner Julia Whalen has brought ten
OF the immense turtles for which the
islands are noted. The biggest shell.
back OF them all weighs 600 pounds and
10 seid TO be the largest ever brought
from the islands. Unfortunately, the
monster reptile was accidentally killed
two weeks out from the islands. A
sharp piece OF timber fell on the deck
and pierced the animals lungs. The
turtle coughed blood for awhile, and
an attempt wal made to plaster up the
hole, but the injured tortoise died In q
fortnight. As scientists estimate the
average life Of these turtles at 200 years,
death within two weeks Of an injury
Is practically instantaneous-for
turtle. IL is said in the islands that no
memory Of the oldest inhabitant, Dur
ing the two centuries that scientists
have allotted IL TO live some accident
generally befalls the turtle. Many have
met their deaths by falling over prsei-
pices, and a number have been over
taken by the lava flows Of these vol
cnnic islands. In fact, the turtle
brought back dead by the whalsn
shows marks on his shell OF having been
caught in ,oms nsry fow. There ara
scars on his shell, showing that the lava
moved more quickly than he. A ton
Of cactus leaves was brought on the
schooner as food for the turtles.
II. L. Snodgrass, an instructor In
zoology at Stanford university. and L.
Heller. a geological student there, went
on the Whalen for the purpose Of max
ing scientific observations. One OF the
giant tortolses belonged TO them, and
they have in addition $50 varieties of
fish. SiNty-two varieties Of fish were
already known on these islands, which
are remarkably rich zoologically. OF
the fish brought back 10 Stanford, 90
specimens are new to science. The col
legians bring also a most complete col
lection of insects, mnnv of them unclas-
sifled. and a fine collection OF birds md
reptiles. They have a specimen OF n
marine iguana, or sea lizard, six feet
long.
The college men report that the tur-
ties, though still numerous on Abe.
marie, have disappeared from the other
islands, except on Duncan island. where
n species of the testudo family still
exists. There are three species on Al
bemarle, but on the other islands, each
Of which had once it's separate species,
the turtles are extinct. The inhsb-
itants OF the islands kill the turtles for
their oil, and the supply is steadily
growing less. The turtles brought back
on the Whalen are worth from 5000 to
$500 apiece. There were ten, some OF
them bound for museums, some for
geological gardens and more for the
soup kettle.-San Francisco Chronicle.
