Sayarre Sana and 8churmnn Passed tha Hat In tha Streat The famous Spanish tenor. Gayarre, Was once at Barcelona in company with the Impresario Schunnann. They were strolling down the Ranibla and met two street mendicants, one of whom was singing while the other beg ged. Gayarre was pouched at their wretched appearance and suggested giving them a couple of louls, but changed his mind and said that he might do better stUL "I will sing and yon shall go round to collect the money. Nobody ' will ever have heard, me sing so cheaply, and the contributions will be a charity. Let us begin at once." No sooner said than done. The cele brated tenor asked the poor singer for his repertoire and then attacked the grand air of "La Traviata." Scarcely had the first notes been beard before a crowd began to assemble, and a whis per went round: "It is he! It la Gay arre." The applause was tremendous, and as an encore he sang "11 Barbiere dl Blvlglla," finishing up with a popular Spanish song. The enthusiasm then broke all bounds, and Schumann, hav ing filled bis own hat, had to borrow Gayarre's. The contents, amounting to a little over $185, were then poured into the hands of the astonished and grateful musicians, and the two im provised street performers had the greatest dlfliculty In forcing their way back to the hotel, where Gayarre re marked: - "Well, I hope yon are pleased with the takings. As for me, I have never sung with so much pleasure. It Is good to help others." MODELS OF BREVITY. Mini of Corratpondenoa In Whieh There Ware No Words Wasted.

The reply came in the form of a blank sheet, indicating that tbere was nothing at all to com municate. Actors seem to carry off the palm for brevity in letter writing. Quin had a misunderstanding with Rich,- the man ager of Covont Garden, which result ed In Quln's leaving in an unceremoni ous manner. He soon regretted the hasty action and wrote to the man ager.
