by the mountains. is heard summoning
the huntsmen; and the ftlfare. heard
first in the distance, then drawing
nearer. indicates their apps ach. Sig
nal for the hunt to commerce. Dur
ing the rustic scene which follows,
the horns are heard both near and in
the distance Song OF the country
folk. (Solo with refrain and dance).
During the dance a storm approaches.
wind rises, and the peasants dance
becomes more animated. A peal of
thunder stops the dance; the peasants
rush shrieking away TO seek shelter
The lightning flashes--the storm
grows in intensity. At last il bursts
forth in full fury-ihe rain falls in
torrents-thunder crashes.
The Margrave, who has been over
taken by the storm, Is heard crying
for help-in vain-the noise of the
storm browns his appeal. Overcome
by wesriness, he falls to the ground
Suddenly he hears the monastery bell
and the chant of the monks Follow
ing The sound, he finds the Fremers-
berg. The storm ceases, and the re-
tainers, who have been seeking the
Margrave, find him in the monastery.
All Join 3oyfully in the TIE Deum.

England has known a few serious
earthquake shocks. In the days of
William Rufus one was felt through
out the country. and in 1874 an Eng
fish earthquake destroyed Glastonbury
among its other damage. while part OF
st. Paul's cathedral fell in as the re
suit of an earthquake in the sixteenth
century. Perhaps the most recent
serious shock was that which inflicted
much damage in the eastern counties
in 1884; a Mansion house fund was
opened for the sufferers
