PASSING OF THE DRUM

In regarded h>' some authorities as
having sealetl the fate or the drum. |

the occasional sound ol a bugle. The
drum was absolutely absent. AI rend)
It bad beep ulXilitihod from some Kit
ropenu armies; bill no great war had
before been fought without it.
Military men have been us a rule
great partisans of I lie ''spirit stirring
drum." , Marshal saxe, one of the
greatest Generals of the eighteenth
century, the conqueror of Kontenoy,
declared IliaL the measured sound
made by the drum and file was India
pensable lo make men march well. As
IUI Illustration of the effect ot music
in sustained physical movements, he
Bald:
"Almost everyone has seen people
dance all night, leaping ami swingin:'
couUttimlly. Bill let anyone try to
dance for two hours without music,
mill see how miserably lie will fall.
it Is thus with marching, it makes
no difference what air is played, pro?

Napoleon was an ardent defender of
the drum. As lung ago as bis lime it
was urged-by some military men Hint
it was a barbaric Instrument, which
dulled the most sensitive ear by list
monotonous sounds, and that It bail
not proper place in modern warfare.
"The drain," nnswercd the Corslchti,
"Imitaten the cannon, it is the best
musical Instrument In the world; for
It never gels out of tune."
It is a mistake to assume that the
drum is unmusical. All musical au?
thorities have agreed that when used
in the proper way it is thoroughly
musical, The common snare or side
drum Is freely used in musical com?
position. A Inrgo number of drum?

ALL HAVE STAGE FRSGHT
Experience is Not Confined
lo the Person Who is Be?
fore Public for First Time.
The nervousness known as Irema.
or singe fright, is not confined to the
tyro, but sometimes attacks export
onced artists, liven orators, nccus-i
tomod to "a soo of upturned faces,"
have been known to stand on tue plat
form with trembling knees. The ner?
vousness often stimulates the speak?
er. "Why. Canning," said a friend
to tho wit and orator, as he was about
lo speak on an important question be
fore the House of Commons, "your
hands are cold and clammy! You are
nervous!"
"Then I shall make a good speech!"
exclaimed Canning. And he did.
it lias been said that or all those
whose accomplishments are evidenced
upon Iho stage, musicians are the
ones who suffer most from trema, it
makes one artist tremble, another
perspire, the third have a headache,
the fourth a thirst. Its most fearful
manifestation, chiefly among the
strings. Is detected In the nervous
trembling of the bow in long, sustain?
ed tones.
There |s perhaps no great violinist
who does not suffer from trema. The
great Vsayo does protty often. Kube
lik lias II. not only in Iiis hands bill
also in his legs, bo that frequently
on the platform he has fell himself,
according to Iiis account, "pushed for?
ward by some visible power without
being able to chock It."
Clanlsts, singers, and Instrumental?
ists all suffer similarly. Some have
it In the fingers that run away with
themj others in the throat; still oth?
ers In tho lips.
At one time Pa'dercwskl suffered
greatly from this nervousness. It
went so far that when he once had
to play in n concert In New York he
vanished from the artists' room a
short time before the time set tor hU
appearance, and it was only arter con?
siderable search that he was found
and induced to proceed With his part
of Hie entertainment.
Rubinstein was another great snt
foror from trema, even in the /enitli
of Iiis powers, lie was known on
more than one occasion to have fore?
gone the profits of lucrative engage?
ments because or sudden attacks of
tins form of nervousness.
Albert ('.running, brilliant Vien?
nese pianist, on the days of his eon
certs used to make plans for his fu
Hire. He would decide to settle down
In some village in Austria, tench the
country youth the rirst principles of
piano playing, and devote the remain?
der of Iiis time tt> digging potatoes
and tat tentng ducks for the market
" Thus.'' ho declared, "1 shall lead a
quiet existence that cannot try my
nerves. I shall never play again |0

if Iho concert was unusually success?
ful, and there were no other engage?
ments f,,r the next few days. Criming
felt himself to be the most uni'nrtu
nnto <>f men.
Among great singers then- may be
cited as distinguished sufferers from
trema tin- do Rc.sxke brothers, Jean
ami Edouard. They were woni to de?
clare that at times only tho respective
encouragement they afforded each
other prevented the direst or failures.
One evening at the opera In Paris, it
was with the greatest difficulty that
Edouard induced his brother to go'Oil
at all. so nervous and despondent wan
the latter. Yet the critics averred
that on the evening in question, when
the tenor sang "Lohengrin" In French
for the first lime In his career, .lean
was absolutely perfect.

ROYALTY AND RELIGION.
Members of Reiunlng Families Who
Have Withdrawn from ihe World.
The latest member of a reigning
family to embrace a religious life is
the Prince of Locwonsteln-Wcdthelm,
who has just gone into a monastery,
lie is well known through his long
activity ln opposition to duelling. I Ii?
is now 71. ami when one considers
liow powerful an attraction monastic
life has had for his family, It does
not appear surprising that he took the
top His only sister and two of his
daughters took up conventional life
long ago. Hip sister, Princess Adel
held Locwenstoln; is the widow of in?
fante Miguel, once a pretender to the
throne of Portugal. Ills son, the Duke
of Drnganza, lias Just announced that
he will also make a claim to the
throne of that disturbed country.
Among fit her religious members of
nlgnlng families Is Prince Mnx. of
Saxony, brother of tho reigning King,
who Ik professor of canonical law and
liturgy at the University of Freiburg.
With tho exception of those named
only side branches of tho reigning
families arc to be found in religious
life. Tho consistnrlal counsel of tho
Cathedral of st. Stephen in Vienna l?
Count Arnold zur Lippe, u cousin of
tho rolgnliig branch of that dynasty.
Among the members of tho famous,
although politically unimportant,
wamlly of Llcbenstetn in Viennn, who
have gone Into the Church, are Prince
George, who, ns Father Idleson. has
become a member of the Uenedictino
Oriler at Pr?mie, und Princess lien
riefte Llchensteln, who under tho
came of Adclgundls, has gone Into the
Uenedictino Convent at Smlchow In
Bohemia.
Among the so-called mediatized
families there nre many more exam?
ples, although they nre always Catho?
lics. One must search In vain for a
Protestant dignitary who has gone In?
to the religious life. Prince Frederic
do Croy, who was not long ago a very
lively young officer of the guard at
Potsdam, Is now u priest In tin- ser?
vice of the Pope. Two members or
tho Hohenlohe-Schllllngsfuerst?both
princes?have recently become
priests. One. Philip, who formerly
held a high political post. Is now a
Benedictine father, and Prince Karl
Egon, who Is barely out of his teens,
has become a secular priest In the di?
ocese of Siebenb?rgen. There Is. of
course, i long list of young women
who have taken tin1 veil ami among
the most recent Is the beautiful Ma?
rie Schwnrtzcnberg, daughter of the
Prince, who has become u llonedlotlne
nun . Sister Maria Wolslawa, the
daughter of Prince Lohowltr., has Just
entered n convent, and so have three
sisters of Prince Isenburg-Blrsteln,
Whose mother was tho Archduchess
Atlstrla-Toecann.
No Two Ships of Same Name.
NB\V YORK, August S.?An edict
just issued by the English board of
trade bids fair to cause nil kinds
of confusion temporarily among Brit?
ish shipping. The board, which
speaks with authority on the BUbject.
has decreed that hen-after no two
British vessels shall be registered un?
der the same or similar names. The
new rule Is to take effect at once.
There nre lew ports In the world
where the change will bo more notice?
able than In Now York, where craft
of British registry predominate, and
"liest guesses" as to the future names
of two of three Virginians, eleven
Vests, six Normans, four Occanlcs,
two Cedrles, six Majesties, five Mai
las, two Mallards, two Malagas, elev?
en Rescues, six Resolutes, three sr.
Lawrences, two St. Ixitiis, etc., are in
order. As yet plans for the change
have not been completed formulated,
but it is expeeled that among vessels
of any one name the vessel of the
heaviest tonnage will be permitted to
retain its present designation.
