Wars Influence on Music.

Hay" you noticed what a speeding up of music has come out of this war: There has been so much music in il. When the famous retreat from Mons was made, one set of soldiers Wa> t"pI awake and moving one night by the music of little toy fife and childS drum, which the commander of it bought in kind of desperation in a shop shortly before. The music acted like q charm on the men, who began to move more quickly and more easily as soon aS they heard It. A battalion marching without singing is unusual in this war, unless secrecy of movement is called for. There's a Long, Long Trail'' is favOrite song, but dear old "Tipperary" is not sung much now. Little French boys sing It well, though, and sing 1t great deal. "Mother Ma chlee' is sung still. because 1t has so much of the old home feeling in 1t. Whenever a wounded soldier in the hospital says he wants to hear a photograph, 1t is taken to mean that he is getting better. And the very sick soldiers, when they hear sweet music played in their wards in hos pitals, are soothed and calmed by 1t. -EXchange

Russian Workman Who Believed He Owned Part of the Street Car
 Track.

While walking along the Nevsky ProSpec! in Petrograd one morning we saw line of street cars thai had evidently been blocked in front of the foremost car was q crowd of people. says q writer in Russia. As we en- tered the crowd we saw man stand ing on the track and arguing with the motorman. The motorman was plead ing with him to get off the track SO that he could proceed with his car. and the man was maintaining that Russia was free country, that he had inst as much right on the track as the car had, and that he did not intend 10 move until he was person. ally inclined to do so.
 A number of soldiers looked on, but no enc attempted to remove the man from the track and neither the motor man nor ihe conductor, attempted to move th" car. but resorted solely to nnr:l sllaSion. The argument that finally induced the man to move was i" the effect that the motorman was q harlworlling man and had to get to the car barn; the longer he was held there the longer 1t would take him to get through his work, and would not his brother workman please g,t "ff tlir track so that he could get lhe ear |" the harn2 With that the free ritiz'l" politely bowed. folded his arms aud moved off the track. the crowd ,j~,. rSed and the cars went on their Way.
