of the composers and per-
formers of the last few years have shown
themselves to be possessed of a keen sense of
humor or genuine wit.
Though Anton Rubinstein. the eminent
pianist and composer was usually too serious
for play of the lighter fancies, he once said a
clever thing. When travelling in Germany, he
was obliged by delay of trains to take lunch
con at a small country hotel. where the only
other guests in the dining room were some
Lutheran ministers their way to a con-
ference. An acquaintance asked RublnSteln
afterward how he felt in such a company.

Again. Rubinstein was told that Won Bulow,
who was famous both a conductor and
pianist when conducting the Hamburg
symphony concerts and seeing the Ocean
symphony of Rubinstein on the program, had
contemptuously exclaimed:

long hair like its composer. | have not.
Whereupon Rubinstein wrote to Won Bulow.

seeking to obtain lock of his hair, he tore
wad of hair out of mattress and sent it to her,
saying. " If it is hair that you desire here is
plenty"
When Paderewski was dining out one night,
he met young society man who had won for
himself reputation for his skill at polo. Being
praised by the pianist for his clever playing,
he said it was different indeed from Paderew
skis performances.
oh replied Paderewski. the difference
between us is perfectly clear You are a dear
soul who plays polo, while l am poor Pole
