Where ROssini Write Opera.

It was in this house that Rosslni
wrote his famous opera THE Barber of
Seville" He left shortly afterward TO
go to live at Passy, near the Ceinture
railroad. When somebody remarked
that he was very foolish IN taking up
his lodging so close 10 the railroad be-
cause Of the footing of the whistles OF
passing trains. he replied with q smile
that. having attended the premiere OF
The Barber of Seville" no amount Of
whistling could disturb him.
A curious example of history's little
irony has Just been destroyed. An old
house has just been demolished on the
Boulevard Arago in which Queen
Blanche of CASTLE lived for some time
and which was one Of the sights OF
Paris. as IN one Of its walls was relic
of the siege OF Paris. a Prussian shell
which had lodged there. For a very lonG
time there was on either side OF the
shell a marble tablet. one Of which
bore the inscription; In the year 122'
civilization began-Queen Blanche, Re
gent; st. Louis, King" The other bore
the inscription: In the year 1871 civil
ization reaches its apogee-Wiuiam ]
Emperor OF Germany!
