Charles Scribner's Sons.
In the Book of Genesis we read that
Jubal was the father Of fddlcrs and
pipers." Mr.. Flood disapproves Of the
| later translations of the passage, which
make it harp and organ" though it
really does not matter much, since the
! organ was at first but ma. liied bag
pipe. Again, in the Third Book Of Daniel
! there is reference to the instrument as
| forming part Of Nebuchadnezzars band.
! Once more Mr.. Flood objects to the re
yiscd versions, which render the Hebrew
word symphonic" as "dulcimer" There
! is I'm existence a Hittite slab, dating
! from circa 1900 y. c., on which bag
| pipe player is represented. According to
! Chinese traditions il is the Oldest instru-
ment in the empire. Assyria had its
! form Of hagpipe, and it is certain that it
was used in early Christian worship.
/ The shepherds at the crib in Bethlehem
played it joyfully, according to medic
val legends.
Mr.. Flood further informs us that the
ancient Irish taught the Romans the use
Of the bagpipe. and not rice rcrSd, as is
generally assumed. They also taught
the English-and the Scotch,-not TO for
get the medieval burghers of Vienna,
where Henry Of Austria established the
famous Schlotten monastery with the
direction that it should be governed and
inhabited solely by Irishmen. And
there is not a shadow of doubt that the
Welsh bardic system and the Eistedfodd
are Of Irish origin"
The bagpipe was in high favor on the
Continent during the Middle Ages, under
the name of "Sackpfeiffe" and "Dudel-
sack among the Germans, as "musette"
in France, and as the "pifa" in Italy. In
the 'Docamerone' Boccaccio tells us
that Pndaro attended to the bagpipe.
Spain Russia, Servia and Bulgaria have
their variants of the instrument. When
we reach Elizabethan England Mr..
! Flood has this to say:
There We're two classes of Irish bagplpes
| the 'piObmOr' and the "I'illeann" pipes
the latter of which came into vogue about
the year 1898 Readers OF Shakespeare-in
| common with commemorative been
puzzled over the term ''woollcn" pipes i'm
The Merchant of Venice" tACt ", Sc D.
/ but the most natural explanation is TO
/ eGuate ''woollcn" with "Uillcann." or elbow
/ pipes. Curlously enough the Irish name
! of the domestic Irish pipes has I'm more re-
cent times been corrupted to union" and
/ thus we find the name as "Uilleann," ,"
"woollen" and union" This explanation
Is far more satisfactory than amy other |
| have seen.
| Under Louis XIV the bagpipe was In
| high favor with the ladies OF the court
as we'll as at concerts Lully employed
1t in his ballet music. Bach in his Eng
lish suites, Handel in the sixth of his
ocncertos. BoIeldieu used it, as a mat

take as the air is undoubtedly Irish. "

THE MAN IN THE BROWN DERBY. BY

If the author of a story Of crime and
its detection, or, in this case, its frustra-
ton, can keep his reader interested in
"how it is going TO end" he has
achieved his purpose, and may be said
to have won success as well. Mr.. Hast
ings succeeds in Turing his reader from
page 10 page in making him keep step
with the action, which in places moves
very rapidly. A mysterious advertise
ment in New York paper, a young col
lege man at the end Of his resources, a
marriage for a financial consideration,
and with certain strange conditions, ana
we are off. The strange couple have hard
ly begun TO become acquainted with each
other when the man with the brown
derby makes his appearance, leaving the
hat behind him in his fight, also torn
collar, whose laundry mark is the only
tangible clew, since the derby dsap-
pears. Still its occasional mention helps
in the pursuit, for brown derbies are rare
nowadays, a fact which the chief villain
should have considered, perhaps. The
hero is impetuous, to say the least; no
wonder that he is sapdbagged in Cen
tral Park Here. however. enters the
rural landlady with the picturesque tenn
perament, who is so tired of keeping
boarders, and joins the hunt for the

of her own concerning the tracking Of
criminals, and they are good. Also
there is not too much Of her. The
comic relief" she furnishes does not
break out at disturbing moments. In
stead, she is really efficient. The reader
must discover for himself how II all

a little point bearing upon the criti-
Cism of Chaucer is worth setting down
here, both on account of its inherent in
terest and because II occurs in Mr..
Ernest A. Savage's "Old English Lii
braries," book that does not lie in the
highway Of an ordinary literary stu
dents reading. 1t relates to a question
raised by Professor Lounsbury.
In that elaborate examination OF
the learning Of Chaucer I'm which he
shows that the poets reading was at
once singularly wide, yet often super
fetal and inaccurate, and which fills so
large n chapter i'm the second volume of
his Studies in Chaucer" Professor
LOunsbUry notes that Chauccr'S quota
tions are generally from the beginnings
of books. 'It must be confessed" he
says that Chaucer's quotations from
writer's exhibit II familiarity with pro-
lOgucs and first books and early chapters
which contrasts ominously with the
comparative infreHucncy with which he
makes citations from the middle and
latter parts Of most of the works he
mentions" and suspicious arise in con-
sequence.
Professor Lounsbury returns To the
point and SAYS again that ut is n sug-
gestive fact that a very large proportion
of the poets undoubted references come
from the beginning of works and not
from the middle or end" The con-
cusion to be drawn from this fact Is
nowhere formulated in the Studies" but
evidently the suggestion Is that Chaucer
was a reader of the sort who having
taken up book, presently wearios of II
