CAPTURED THE NATION.
How the "MarseilIaise" Was Written
and Spread All Over France,

When the Marseilles battalion of
the army of the first French repub-
lie entered Paris on July 80, 1892,
they were singing a martial anthem
unlike anything that had been
heard before. When the soldiers
broke ranks they distributed among
the people leaflets upon which the
words had been printed. Soon all
Paris was singing the song; then it
made its way into the provinces,
and the entire nation sang it.
Questions were asked the soldiers
from Marseilles as to who had writ
ten the song, which they called the
"Chant des Marseillais." All they
knew was hat at a civic banquet
held on the eve Of their departure
for Paris a singer named Mireur
had sung it and that it had so i'm
pressed the major that he had caus-
ed the leaflets to be printed which
they had brought to Paris. Prob
ably, some said, Mireur had COM
posed "The Song of the Marseil-
laise."
They were mistaken, however.
The great national anthem OF
France had a different origin and
name, and when finally the truth
became known the poet and com
poser was properly acclaimed and
honored, and years afterward King
Louis Philippe conferred a pension
upon him, but the song always kept
the name it had received in the
southern city.
Three months before, in Strass-
burg, on the Rhine, Dietrich, the
mayor Of the city, had complained
that the volunteers who were about
to join Luckner's army had no pa
triotic song to sing as they marched
out. A young captain of engineers,
Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle,
heard him. He retired to his lodg-
ings and during the night, with the
aid of his violin, composed the mu-
sic and the words of the song which
was to render his name immortal.
He called it "The War Song of the
Army of the Rhine" and the night
on which he wrote it was April "a,
1892. 1t was first sung at Dietrich's
house on the following day, and
then Immediately arranged for the
band of the garde rationale, which
performed at a review on Sunday,
the goth, and a copy was sent by a
member of the band to his friend,
Mireur of Marseilles, who himself
sang it at the banquet on June 25.
On Aug. 10 the people of Paris sang
it as they stormed the Tuilleries.
In the course of time the music
has been slightly changed and STAN
zas added, and ositics have asserted
that Rouget de Lisle appropriated
his melody from a German hymn
and yet that German hymn has new
err been produced. Later he wrote
other songs, but nothing hat is re-
membered, and some plays. One,
entitled "Tom ct Lucy" has its
scene laid in America, but it is for
gotten. Only la Marseillaise" re-
mains. He died at Choisy, at the
age of seventy-six, in 1S36.-New
York Times.
