facts which had a significant bearing on WaG-
ncrs character but viii, lent il no lustrc. For
instance. The Tribune gave an account of Il
letter which was in the hands of staff cor
respondent in Bayreuth long ago 1891
which luminously instructive on Wagner's
method of wooinG. 1t was letter from the
young musician. then chapeImaster ut KGniSs
berg. to Wihelmine Planer. who in 1876 became
his wife The young and pretty actress had run
away from the theatre at Ki'niSSbcrl; in 4 pet,
having been refused the part of Juliet in Shake
speares tragedy and was seeking. or had found,
an engagement elsewhere. Wagner, deeply
smitten by her charms. wrote the letter in ques-
ton for the purpose of persuading her to return.
He argued the case. then made fiat proposal of
marriage. ending it with Il threat To the effect
that If she did not return and accept the hand
he offered he would abandon all work. give him
self up to drink and go to the devil as fast as
possible 1t seems scarcely probable that Herr
Glaseuapp was unaware of the existence of this
letter. for it was in the collection of autographs
owned by most devoted friend of Wagner's.

of Rienzi. and frantic eulogiums bv refIs-
ing to permit his part to be curtaied of a single
word note after the first performance. Yet
the story is significant. and we may be sure that
had the i'll starred Minna threatened kill her
self unless Wagner married her the fact would
have been set forthwith pretty emphasis.
But grant that Herr Glasenapp never saw
this letter; there is another, which he did see
which convcts him of ''suppressio veri." Some
two years ago this journal printed letter from
Wagner to his youthful friend the conductor
Schindelmeisser. asking his aid in the procure
mcnt of new engagement as chapeimaSter.
The letter written within Il year of mis-
marriage to Minna. and stated that he was
ready at any moment to leave KGnigsberg for

subject and help him to look like saint There
was little nothing of pOlemic in the biography
printed twenty-five years ago. and nothing at
all in the way of musical analysis criticism.
The volume is crammed with refutationS of
every petty anecdote that has found its way
into print and might haply cause somebody
to see feck of dust upon the masters moral
shirt front That must appear as immaculate as
his music is impecCable. Also it discourses
about youthful compositions which Wagner,
despite his Unsuitable passion for writing about
himself, never referred to- either because he had
forgotten all about them willing that
they should sink into oblivion But Herr
Glasenapp must needs drag them forth and find
in them germs of the masterpieces that We're to
come. This method of expansion has been pur-
sued so industriously that this first volume of
the third edition of the biography is almost as
voluminOus the two which comprised the en-
tire work in 1876. Not content with what the
author has done in this direction. Mr.. Ellis con-
tributes his quantum of padding we'll; yet
neither has seen fit to- mention multitude of

ficient in sclf-rcspect Moral obligations weighed
upon them, and when they owed money they
were silly enough to believe that they were not
gloriiiod thereby. but Inundated in the eyes Of
their creditors, and a world degraded by that
spirit of COmmercialism which rests upon
the honorable discharge of financial obliga-
tions. Saint Richard. Herr Glasenapp would
have believe. not of this sort. To
lend him money t,u.t him for house rent
or provisions was a duty 10 he accounted
pleasure; to expect a return of the money or
payment for the goods, a deplorable sign of
depravity; To ask it. proof conclusive Of deep
obliquity The world owed this saint whatever
he chose to ask or to take without the asking
even his friends wife. it also owes his fam
iy-so the family th.nks-a special dispensation
in the matter of copyright in order that the
Bayreuth show may be maintained monop-
oily for the enriching Of the court at Wahnfried
and the degradation of Waenerian ideals.
For twenty-five years Herr Glascnapp's biog
raphy of Richard Wagner has held It's place rs
the foremost book devoted to its subject, It's
first edition appeared in 1876, year memorable
in Wagncrian annals for the beginning of the
festivals ut Bayreuth. In 1SS2, known in those
annals "Parsifal' year, second edition APP
peared. with supplement. \ year later Wagner
died and gave the world reason To expect q
third edition, which should bring the poet-com-
poser's life history to a close But, says Mr.
Ellis Herr Glasendpp felt. and rightly. that no
further edition ought to be issued before time
research and meditation should have enriched
his work with ripper thought and far larger
body of material. He waited until 1871 and
then issued the first volume OF the third edition
which, in its English dress is now under re
view. 1t would be foolish to deny that Herr
Glasenapp's book has gained vastly in the re-
moulding so far its reliability is concerned
His original biography was a staid and sober
piece of writing it's color sombre brown without
the splotches of garish color which have now
been thrown the canvas in the obvious belief
that they would shine round the head of the

If one were fairly to take his honesty in
both hands," says Mr. Howells in the current
number of "Harpers Magazine, he would
probably be able to confess that the influence
of any powerful story on his mind stupe-
fying' If this is the with the normal
human being and where powerful" literature
is concerned, what must happen when the
scale is lowered both as to the reader and the
book: The effect, Mr.. Howells remarks, lis
not perhaps 50 bad as that of morphine but
it may be something like that of cocaine, and
far worse than that of cigarettes. In this
sense the habit of reading inferior fiction (for
out of a hundred readers ninety-nine read moth
ing clSc) is certainly a vice, without the pct-
uresqucncss of n craze" How is the vice to
be eradicated? Good books, would nat
the reform. Mr.. HowclS is not so sure. The
power to think must be developed before the
change is accomplished. and. as Mr.. HowellS
rather plainly hints the power of thinking is
not 50 widely ditfused as most of us like TO
believe. Talk may help 10 bring about the re-
form. The art of thinking is not likely to go
far unless it goes hand in hand with the art of
talking" Nevertheless if the good book gets
its proper chance wonders may enSuc. 1t is
no less an incentive to talk than the trash. and
it is bound to help people To think. Mr.. How
els speaks of beginning with the tender mind
of youth" Something may yet be done with
the mature man and woman, if only authors
and publishers will cease putting rubbish so
necessarily into their hands that they can think
Of nothing else.

The appropriate attitude for the perusal of this
book is that of alteration. The reader should be on
his knees, head thrown back hands clasped and
extended, eyes turned upward The countenance
should glow with the light of perfect faith re
vealing unquestoned and unquestioning re-
captivity and acceptance. 1t is not a biography
as other biographies are-life stories of mere
men of genius painters, poets. Sculptors, mu-
sicans. This is a chapter of hagiolatry; the
story of a saint. 1t must sooner or later go into
