MOONLIGHT IN MUSIC.
Story of How Beethoven Created His
Wonderful Sonata.

Story of How Beethoven Created His
Wonderful Sonata.
Beethoyens famous composition, the
Moonlight Sonata" is said to have
been composed under the following cir
cumstanceS:
One evening as Beethoven and &
friend were hurrying through the
streets of Bonn they heard the famil-
lar notes Of the Sonata In F." Some
thing in the musicians touch attracted
the attention Of Beethoven, and he
stopped and listened. Suddenly the
music stopped. and the despalring
words Of the musician came to them
through the open window, "Oh, If
could but hear some really good mu-
stefan play this wonderful piecew and
the words ended in n sob.
Let us go in" said Beethoven. They
entered and found the player young
girl, poor and blind. Beethoven sat
down at the old harpsicherd and play
ed as he had never played before. His
listeners were spellbound. Tell u.s."
they begged, "who are you?" For an
swer he played the opening bars in the
Sonata In F. '.It is Beethoven
they exclaimed In awe and admiration.
Suddenly the candle flickered and
went out. Beethoven ceased playing
and bowed his head upon his hand.
His friend threw open the shutters. A
flood of ~sful moonlight entered
the room. Its trs>sfi guring light touch
ed up the poor old instrument and rest
ed upon the noble figure bowed before
IT. The profound silence was broken
at last by the musician, who said: Lis
ten. l will improvise n sonata to the
moonlight" Then was created this Won
derful sonata, beginning in q sad, ten
der movement, the embodiment in
sound of the gentle moonlight transfig-
uring and clarifying the dark earth.
Suddenly the music ceased, and with
brief farewell Beethoven hurried
home to put upon paper this famous
composition.

Charles F. ToWIe Tells of Re-
cent Visit to Westport,
Decatur County.
IT HAS NATURAL BRIDGE.
IN PERFECTION OF FORM AND
SURROUNDING BEAUTY 1T NO
DOUBT EQUALS THE NATURAL
BRIDGE OF VIRGINIA.

While visiting friends a few days
ago in Westport, Decatur county, In
diana, had the pleasure of viewing
what is probably the widest and most
picturesque scenery in the state This
county is situated in the heart of the
limestone country, and along the banks
Of Sand Creek, which flows through
Che county, in many places high cliffs
of limestone may be seen.
= The country is very billy and Gov
cred by large forests, which are al
. most impenetrable owing to the under
growth and low hanging branches Of
The trees.
What was probably the most inter
Osting thing to me was the Natural
Fridge, which is situated in Jennings
county, aon the farm of J. B. Littell and
abput nine miles south of Westport.
although 1t can not compare with the
enormous natural bridge of Virginia as
lar as magnitude is concerned, it is
pkbbably the equal of the larger bridge
IA perfection of form and surround
GnS beauty. 1t is about fifteen feet in
Weight, about ten feet in width on the
hnsfde and is broad enough for the pas
mage of wagon on the top. A tiny
stream, fed by a spring, to the north of
4he bridge, wends its way over the
upchH to Sand Creek, which although
At-a.few yards distant from the bridge

pn the bank. Just inside the north
Entrance of the bridge is large cave
witch has been explored to a distance
6f about one hundred feet but which
beyund that point, is entirely unex-
Stored.
Another feature of the scenery in
mat vicinity which interested me a
great deal, was what is called the tun-
oeA It is a place where the river
makes an abrupt turn and doubles back
htil 1t reaches spot where there is
nut about seventy-five feet of solid
Grotfnd between the two banks. At
khis point many years ago tunnel was

Two banks and they were thus con-
hected, forming an outlet for small
stream which at one time furnished
power for a mill situated at that point

called of riding over some of the old
corduroy roads, of which our grand
fathers have told us so often. A trip
TO this country is indeed one which VIII

ture, as well as by the photographer.
for the place is full of beautiful pic
lures, which delight the eye.

Antiquity of Tennis.

Among all the popular games of to-
day none perhaps is of greater an
tiquity than tennis, for it is said to
have originated in the ball games of
the ancient Greeks and Romans. In
the first place the ball was struck by
the hand. later on heavy gloves were
worn or cords strapped round the palm.
and the racket was contrived during
the fifteenth century in France, where
the game was very popular. and thence
introduced into England.-London Cap
