It seemed somehow almost a desecration. And It happened right on tho heels of tho announcement that Puccini had consented to permit one of his operas to be used for similar" purposes. What are we coming 'to musically amongst a certain class of since a popular composer lifted a melody, bodily from a great classical composition we have been troated to more frequent purlolnlngs of similar-character, until It has become too much' of a good thing. Tho craze for this sort of "adapting," as for the Greco-Roman stylo of modern dancing, Is Increasing rather than receding. Where It Is finally to end Is a matter of speculation.

Perhaps, when wo havo gotten tho world set more to rights, there will bo a return to a saner, a less wild mode of writing "popular" music and of dancing to It. This coming season will mark the thirtieth In the carocr of John Philip Sousa. of us remember him back In his younger days, when ho was as snappy as you please, down In Washington, and led the United States "Marine band In a way that brought him tho attention of persons of renown. Not a foreigner ambassadors and others of diplomatic corps who did not respond to the music led by Sauna. His erect figure, his well-trimmed beard, tho eyeglasses, and tho lmmaculntcncss which always distinguished Sousa wore ever In evidence.

Thoro Is boyishness und whimsicality about Thackeray's pilgrimages to us that puts us in a good humor even now.
