"A VERY ANCIENT TUNE. !
It Is Also Probably the Most Popular
On In tha World.
Perhaps the most, tinuly established
popular song In the world Is the air fa
miliar to American as "We Won't Go
Home Till Morning " The origin of the
tune Is ubwuru. hut Louis Elson be
lieves 'that tbe iiiuhIc was composed
as a love song in the tenth century or
earlier by one of tbe troubadours, tbe
wandering minstrels of soutberu
France. Chateaubriand, the French
writer, beard It mtug by the A nibs, and
be suggested that It might .have been
carried to tbe orlefat by tbe French cru
saders. It was certainly sung by the Prerch
soldiers during the war liv whlcb tbe
8 rut Duke of Marlborough ' won bis
fume. It was the lullaby of the baby
son of Maiie Antoinette. It became one
of the most, popular songs of tbe
French revolution. Napoleon whistled
and sang it throughout his life. Beetho
ven used it as obe of the themes W bis
"Battle Symphony."
It bas been for more tban a century
one of the most popular street songs In
Europe. And there is probably not a
ten-year-old boy or girl In America who
does not know the tune.
Tbe French words, beginning "Mai
brook s'en vn-t-en guerre." were invent-,
ed by some forgotten French soldier
during tbe war of the Spanish succes
sion. They describe the supposed death
and funeral of tbe btike of Marlbor
ough, which death. In the words of
Father front "did not then take place,
by some mintage." since "the subject or
the pnthotlf pIpst wnx nt the MiiHMrf It

by ihe red republicans Tor Incendiary,

Several sets of words have been sung
to the tune in the course of its history,
and it has itself undergone some modi
fications. But Its Identity is clear
through all the.cbangea. Probably it is
familiar to a greater number of people
at the present time tban any other tune
In the world. Sooth's Companion.
WON THE JURY.
A Couple of Shrewd Queries and the
Railroad Lost Its Cat.
A number of years ago Benjamin F.
Butler was a guest or friends in Brook
lyn. During bis visit be noted the rule
of the street railway companies com
pelling conductors to register .fares as
soon as passengers entered the . cars
and before the fares were actually col
lected. Two or three years afterward
be represented tbe plaintiff In a dutnage'
suit for $15,000 in which a Brooklyn
street railway company was the de
fendant. The principal witness for
the company was the conductor of tbe
car on which the accident occurred,
and his testimony was so. strong as to
make things look bud for Butler's cli
ent. But Butler recalled the, unusual
rule be bad remarked years before, and
on cross examination be said:
"Your company requires you to ring
up fares as soon as passengers enter
the car, doesn't It?" ( .' 1 ,'
"Yes." ' '. '
' "Suppose a passenger boards your-
car and then tin da be Is on tbe wrong
line. Do you state tbat fact to your
superiors, and do they make allowance
on your returns for that fare?"
"No. ' 1 lone the nickel."
"Do you mean to say the company
won't take your word for 5 cents?"
"No. they won't"
"Yet," suld tbe shrewd veteran, turn
ing to the Jury, "the company asks you
to take this conductor's word for $18.
000." - ' ' , .'
Butler's client received a verdict
Brooklyn Eagle. ' , .
"Spanish Mutton." . .
Dog meat we learn from the Frank
furter Zeitung. is largely sold In Ger
many, 'and more especially in Saxony,
but rarely under Its own name. Trad
ers describe It as Spanish mutton, and
their customers are less cbary of ask
ing for It
Catfish In England Is treated In tbe
same euphemistic way. There was a
lime ffhen this fish was never seen in
the KhopH1 Tben some tisbmongeiing
geniiiB invented tbe name of "rock
snlniori." and bestowed it ppon the
despised cattish, wblcb Dpw bas an es

Seven In the Bible.
Tbe numt-er seven plays promlneat
part In e vents in tbe Bible. The crea
tion took six- days, and on tbe Beventb
there was rest. .On tbe seventh day of
the seventh month a holy observance
was ordained, and the Israelites feast- .
ed seven days and rested seven days.
Noah bad seven days' warning of the
flood, and tbe seven years of plenty
were foretold in Pharaoh's dream by
seven fat beasts, as were the seven lean
years by seven lean beasts. We speak
of the seven beavens, and the seventh
son was supposed to be endowed with
pre-eminent wisdom. In short there is
no other number which enters into the
Bible so often as seven. No doubt tbe
wide popularity of the number and tbe
superstitions which are connected with
it came from Its wide use In tbe Bible.
