of a new era of irospertty and uappl

everything our m o way. but unfortu
nately we bad o way for a time.
Boon we were pr loners of the regular
troops. They pre, Kitted to first Impris
on us, then take us out In droves and
shoot us. I was expecting to fro out
stand with my face to the wall with
the rest and lie shot, when a fellow ,
prisoner told me that the French army
was short of musicians and one of our
number bad been pardoned and enlist
ed to play the trombone.
A drowning man will catch at a
straw, and. securing a bit of paper, I
wrote on It that I was an accomplished
musician and would like to enlist as
such in the army. The paper 1 gave to
the oflleer who had us In charge. The
Dext morning- a roll was called of those
who were to be shot my name among
them. Rut after calling It the sergeant
paused, blinked bis stupid eyes at the
paper, then said:
"No, Jacques llenrotin. you are to go
to be examined for the band lieing re
organized for the Infantry."
Well, (his w8 like reprieving a man

on. I had no knowledge of music and
did not know one instrument from an
other. I could only think of some plan
for delay Our prison was cold, and
that ultjlit I poured water over my
clothes mid slit in tliem In order to
catch cold. Port mutely I succeeded,
and the next day when I was marched
to the bandmaster of the bifantry
I was coughing and aneezing, my wlnd
pipe being pretty nearly stopped.
What instrument do you piny?" In
quired the bandmaster.
I had puriKisely made inquiry about
Instruments and replied that 1 played
tho cornet. Wlier-upou the band mas
ter called for n cornet and told me to
lay something.
"Great heavens.'" I exclaimed. "Do
you exiect a man to use his lungs
while they nre not even fitted for
breathing."
Take blm back and cross his name
off the list of applicants."

I promise you that 1 will niake -music

"Very well, I'll give you a week."
"I have caught cold In prison. Can't
you have me put where I may recover
and where I can practice a little? I've
not played for some time.'
"IPin, let me so! I might put you
with the baud."
lie directed the corporal to take me
to the quarters of the band and have
me locked In a r om by myself. He
also gave orders t iat I waa to be pro
vided with a con et. This waa done.
I succeeded In In.'iicing the man who
broilgbt the ooruei to give me Instruc

the mouth 1 learned to play a tuue
which my Instructor told me was a
great favorite with the bandmaster.
When I waa called upon to show my
