HOLDING THE CELLO.
An Ansedote Of DuPort and the EN-
peror Napoleon.

An Ansedots Of Duport and the EN-
peror Napoleon.
Napoleon, in way, was fond Of
music. 1t is admitted that the mu-
steal tastes Of 'the Corsican ogre
were not elevated. But for all that he
loved singing SO much that many a
time after a concert he ordered the
vocalists to come to the palace and
sing before him and the Empress Jo-
sephine.
A curious anecdote is told Of his
brusQue manner of dealing with art
lists. One night at concert at the
Tuileries. while Duport, the famous
violoncellist, was performing solo,
the emperor suddenly entered His
majesty nodded his head approvingly
and when the piece was finished said
to Duport:
How the deuce do you manage to
keep that instrument so motionless?"
And, taking up the cello. he tried to
jam 1t between his spurred boots.
Poor Duport nearly tainted when he
saw his treasure treated like a war
horse. For several minutes he looked
on, trembling from head to foot. At
last, however, he darted forward and
called out "Sire" in such pathetic
tones that the emperor handed him
back the instrument. ,r-
Duport thereupon showed how the
instrument was held. but every time
his imperial master extended his hand
to attempt to do it himself Duport
threw himself back In alarm till final.
ly Josephine whispered something to
her husband who burst out laughing
and put an end to the cello lesson
