FREDERIC EMERSON FARRAR,

MRS. MARY WEBER FARRAR,
°"
RS. MARY WEBER FARRAR was born at Frankfort-am-Main, in Germany, and came to this country with her father when she was seven years old. She began the study of piano at the age of four. She was a pupil of the celebrated Dr. Knabe, instructor in the royal family at Frankfort-am-Main; of Prof. Henri Weber, her father, so long and favorably known in Nashville and Tennessee; of Mr. B. J. Lang, Dr. Louis Maas, and Mr. Ernest Perabo, all of Boston. Her ~reputation in Nashville and the South is second to none as a teacher of the best and ost advanced ideas of modern piano playing, and her pupils occupy prominent posit.in many schools and cities.
1 It was when Paderewski, a poor, 'utterly PADEREWSKI'S ROMANCE.-The ru-, unknown pianist, was touring through Russia, Siberia, Servia and Roumania that Rosa I mors of Ignace Jan Paderewski's marriage tassal came into his life. The pianist was this spring-the rumor named first one fair not making much success, his audiences lady and then another-have revived that were small and entered by low rates of ad-~ tender, pathetic story of his wedded life, mission, and most of his hearers listened but dully, only a few catching the note of. a brief period of bliss that was blighted by genius in his playing.

First, it was said lo-0k of such sympathy and understanding, that she was lovely because of that look. that in December Padorewski had married ' She was blessed with the divine gift of Gorski, the widow of the violinist, and then 1 sympathy.

When Paderewski and again to mind that tender, pathetic chapter ] his wife were not traveling, for she always in the pianist's life, and brought forth that Paderewski is still in love with his girl, went with him, they lived in .a small cottage in his native village of Padolia.

He cannot forget those young days of nearly twenty years ago, nothing without the light of her star-like eyes to guide him. And so the days went when his idolized and idolizing young wife Jay cold and silent, her eyes no longer the on, days of poverty but of utmost happiness. 'Ah, Ignace!' she would exclaim. "You light of his life and his inspiration, lay before him still in death, leaving to his care shall be rich and famous. But what shall the tiny crippled boy that has since been his I do then?

Beethoven, again, certainly had desires toward matrimony. "Oh, God," he exclaims, "Jet me at last find her who is destined to be mine, and who shall strengthen me in virtue." But Beethoven had none of the arts and graces of the lover, and to the end he remained wedded only to his artwhich was perhaps just as well both for the art and the woman. Gluck, the founder of the modern opera, had also to contend with the Philistine father, in this case a rich banker and merchant who had no very high opinion of the financial resources of musicians. Fortunately for Gluck, however, the banker died while the composer's love was still fresh, and consequently there was a Mme. Gluck left to mourn him when he said farewell to the world. Chopin's "sentimental amenities" with George Sand have been the- subject of more speculation than the love affairs of any other musician who has ever lived. It was a heartless business altoget~er on the side of the lady, who not only left the composer to his cough and his piano after winning all the affection he had to give, "but represented him to the world as a· consumptive and exasperating nuisance.-Cornhill.
