Dined the Audience.

An. article in an Italian review con-
tains an interesting story of List and
Rubin, the great tenor. They were
touring together and visited a town
where from the prelminaries which had
been arranged, great things were ex-
pected. But they were disappointed
for when they entered the hall they found
only fifty persons present
Rubin was furious and said that he
would not sing, but List Gained him.
You must sing. he said. This small
audience is evidently COMPOSED of mus
ical connoisseurs of the town. so we
should treat them with respect" List
set the example with grand overture,
and Rubini sang to perfection. List
gave another piece and then he ad-
dressed the audience.
List as an orator was as tactful as he
had been in the role of pacificator. Ad-
dressing his audience of fifty. he said:
Ladies and gentlemen"-there was
only one lady PRESENT. think that you
have had enough music. Allow me 10
ask you to take little supper with US. :"
After few seconds the invitation was
accepted. and List and Rubini enter-
tanned the audience to supper at their
hotel, which cost them I,2oo francs.
When the guests separated the hosts
thought that the affair had been Joke.
about which nothing more would be
heard, but they decided to give their
concert as advertised on the following
night. To their establishment the hall
was packed. There was no standing
ROOM The whole town had turned out
on the of chance of an invitation to
supper.
