A Tranedx La Writinn.

IlIegible handwriting, which has Civ,
en- rise to so many comedies, led to
a tragedy in the case of Bacher, a
musical enthusiast of the last century
who devoted several years to the COM
position Of a history of Viennese mu-
sic. His task finished, he submitted
the manuscript to the Austrian i'm
perial academy, which he had been led
to believe would defray the cost of it's
publication. After three months his
manuscript was returned. Despite
their best efforts the members had
been unable to decipher 1t. Bacher
then endeavored to have his work
copied, but every professional copyist
who undertook the task had to confess
himself bafiied. He %thereupon at
tempted debating the work, only to
find that even he could not decipher
it, and, beartbroken at the discovery
that his years of toll had proved fruit
less, he attempted suicide and finished
his days in a lunatic asylum.
