with Supplying effect. Then he
asked List to accompany him in
sWotan's Farewell" After roaring
this out he went on to Brunhilde's
song.
He capered and beloved and
roared out like lion the song of
the giants in "Rheingold-" The
pale, insignificant little man whom
we had seen a few days before
sitting on the edge of his chair
with an apologize air seemed
even to grow physically to super
human stature; he actually be-
came a giant.
1t was through the influence OF
Princess Metternich that Wagner's
music was first introduced to Paris.
Conforming to her promise. Pauline
spoke to the Emperor. He had never
heard of "Tannhauser" or Wagner,
but he acceded to the Prir.cess's re-
quest. In the winter of 1868 Wagner
arrived in Paris to superiutend the
rehearsals., But the performance
proved that Wagner had been right
in his doubts. 1t was then not q
matter of national prejudice, but
"Tannhauser" was a failure, and a
subscription had to be raised to pay
the composers debts.

Pauline found Franz List more
sympathetic than Wagne". List
was indeed vain-what great artist
is not ?-but he was so infinitely kind
hearted, so loyal in his friendships,
so magnanimous. that Que readily
overlooked his little vanities when
one came into closer contact with
him and got to know him thoroughly.
The Metternichs were responsible
for the first meeting of List and
Gounod, and maneuvred LISTS pres
entation at the Tuileries. The in
vitation went to Liszt and to the
Metternichs in the form of little
dinner party. After dinner the En-
peror asked List to play for him.
The musician complied with a rem
dering of 'Carita," then with a waltz
of Schubert's, and wound up with
the Preghiera from Rossini's Noise"
AT the end came series OF powerful
tremolos, and when it was over the
Emperor said to him: How well you
initiate thunder!" This praise acted
like douche Of cold water. The
chilling effect, however, was pleas
antly counteracted the rext day
when the Emperor. through Prince
Metternich, conferred upon the artist
the Legion of Honor.
List left Paris, and the Princess
did not meet him again u.stil years
after, in Venice in 1881. There she
was alone one evening, deep in a
book. when the doo- opened and

came from Weimar, where he had
organized a musical and poetic
celebration in behalf of Marie
Mouchanow
He went to the piano, opened It
and on that evening he played
more beautifully than / had ever
heard him play before. He must
have sat there for two hours, pour
ing forth the music of the spheres
In some strange way he seemed to
have assimilated all that was
characteristic of our dearly beloved
friend, for from time to time he
would say. half to himself: That's
how she used to play Chopin;
that's how she used to render that
phrase"
When he took his leave tears
stood in his eyes. and he said:

No woman of the Second Empire
was more discussed than Pauline
Metternich. The Empress, always at
tached to her, was wax in her hands.
1t was at her suggestion that the
ladies wore short skirts for the paper
chases at Cempiegne and Fontaine-
bleau. The more sedate members of
the court denounced the garb, but
Pauline laughed at their prudery.
She was simply the leader in a wild
set. "The women of the Second EN-

were more frank and much cheaper
