Irascible Von Bulow,
During Hans von Hulow's lender
hip of the orchestra at Itnnovcr a
tenor of fame was engnged to play n
star role In "Lohengrin," and whlln
the singer was rehearsing his part Hu
low was forced to go over tho same
bars a number of Mines without the
now actor beginning to slug. Tired of
his wnslcd efforts, the lender stopped
the orchestra and angrily turned to
tho singer.
"I know that a tenor Is proverbially
stupid," be said, "but you seem to
make an extensive use of this unwrit
ten law."
At another time, while one of his
grand Intermezzos was being played
with great feeling by tils musicians, a
peculiar noise, hardly perceptible by
untrained ears, annoyed the leader for
some little time. At first ho thought
it resembled the flutter of wings, but
soon he discovered nn elegant Indy
fanning herself In ono of the boxes
closo by. Itulow kept on with his ges
tures, fixing his eyes on the offender
In n mnnncr which meant reproof. The
Indy, not heeding this, was suddenly
surprised by the lender dropping his
stick nnd turning toward her.
"Madam," ho cried, "If fan you mint,
