So: writes Dole in his blography of Franz Liszt, wonder REE HUNDRED starving men marched to the Town| Hall in Grimsby, @ fishing town in England, two nights ago and begged for food. Despatches yesterday said that Wanless something is done to end the coal strike quickly hunger marches will become a common sight all over the country. It is esti- -mated that besides the million miners on strike, nearly two million | @ther persons have been made idle. ® Before grim facts like these it behooves the workingman— all the intelligent American workingman—to sit down and ie grave counsel with himself. t Does the strike do its work well enough to make it worth the ? Is there no other way? Granted the men have wrongs. Granted that getting the coal of the earth whero the Lord packed it away is a hard and peril- job, and that those engaged in it should be treated decently | ~—s and fairly. Granted coal magnates are neither generous nor just. : Granted all these things—still, DOES A BIG STRIKE HIT THK RIGHT FELLOW? Who really suffers? Not the magnates. They have abundart pianist and composer and the greatest heart breaker of his day. | Six women—all of them famous artiste who were in love with Lisst—+ | entreated the celebrity t6 let them paint him sitting at his plants. He yawm> | ingly consented and took hfs seat at the instrament, while thesektet of fair artists set feverishly to work at the lovetask of painting him. But, bored | to death by their noisy adoration, Liszt spoiled the pose by falling asleep before any of the pictures were blocked in. | Four professional beauties had their portraits painted, depicting thems | selves as caryatides, grouped at the base of Liszt’s marble bust. Court lad! | used to steal his thrown-eway cigar butts and treasure them as sac | souvenirs. } | ‘When Lisst arrived at @t.

Prophecy. ~ Richard Wagner, when @ struggling young composer, | Came to him for aid and received it lavishly. Wagner wrote | at least « dozen letters to Lisst, appealing for financial help, | and Is said to have received money in reply to all of them. (He later married Lisst’s daughter, Cosima, who is still living.) At last old age began to affect the genius’s spare, hardy frame. When women entered his drawing room he was forced to remain seated. He excused thie seeming diecourtesy by saying: “I cannot arise. They are putting on my boots for the long journey.” He started on the “long journey” July 31, 188. The date is significant, for (whether in a spirit of prophecy or not) Wagner had written to Liszt, thirty yeare earlier: “Remember the Set of July! Farewell!” As he grew old hie musical fame burned but the brighter. He earned untold po | sums of money and he spent it like water in relieving distress and poverty and in WORK AND WORRY. helping ether musicians.
