Who Composed
 Natl Anthems

NEW YORK, Jan. 2l.-From data just gathered by the Metropolitan Opera Company these facts are learned about patriotic songs familiar to nearly everyone:
 The national song of the French, the "Marseillaise," was composed by Rouget de Lisle, a captain of en- gineers quartered at Strasburg when the volunteers of the Bas Rhin re- ceived orders to join Luckner's army. They had no music, but at the sug- gcstion of Dietrich, the mayor of Strasburg, De Lisle composed this song on the night of April 24, 1792. It was subsequently, sung in Marseil- les with immense success, hence its name. The song as it stands is the greatest revolutionary hymn in the world The French government re- gently transferred the body of Rouget de Lisle (who suffered Imprisonment for his revolutionary opinions during his lifetime) to the Palace des In- valides with great pomp and cere- mony.
 The music of Deutschland uber alIes" was written by Hayden in 1797 The present words were not written until lS4I, by Hoffman von Fallers- .eben. At that time Germany was not united into an empire as it is to- day.
 The "Wacht am Rhein" was written by Max Scheckenberger, an obscure ! Swabian merchant, and the music was by Carl Wilhelm. The song became popular during the Franco-Geman war.
 The national hymn of Austria was composed by Hayden and is known as the 'EmperOr's Hymn"
 The words of the "Star-Spangled Banner" were written by Francis Scott Key, an American prisoner on ] a British man-o'-war during the bonn bardment of Fort McHenry in 1874. The melody is an old English drink ing song.
 The words of Yankee Doodle" were probably written by a Dr. Shuck- burgh, a surgeon in the French and Indian wars. Halliday, the antiquar- ! ian, asserts the melody is derived from a chant used in the Italian churches of the twelfth century. It is we'll known that the song was a vintage song in France and Spain and a song of the reapers in Holland ! It is also said to be founded on a jig of l745. known as kitty Fishers Jig" The Cavaliers are said to have used it in ridicule of Cromwell just as the British used it against the Ameri- cans.
 The origin of "America"-the tune of "God Save The King" in England and "Heil dir i'm Sieges Kranz" in Ger many-is in doubt, though it is ofter

 The Russian national anthem, "God Protect the Czar," is one of the most majestic of hymns. It was composed by Colonel Alexis, an officer in the Russian army, in 1882, to words by the poet Jonkowslsy. It is probably the only inspired national song ever written to order"
