"Tho Infant Phenomenon. "

Ulttlo Max , who now appears about six
years old , has buen studying the piano only
two years nnd u half. " xVhen lie wo * only
two1 , ' says his father , "ho used to sing any
airs ho might have heard mo play , and later
oil ho sang them over aiul then composed and
sang variations to them ; but I would not let
him go to the piano until howasaltttlo
older , though ho plnndod hard to bo allowed
to play. Even now I don't ' allow him to com
pose at all. "
1'lie boy would , at a tlmo when most chil
dren think only of toys , bo a composer ot
note It it wore not for this parental interdic
tion. lie of tea says : "I bavo been hearing
music till iiiffht , and In my sleep I have
written it all down. May I not wrlto Itdo vn
now ! "
Some objections havobccn rnndoln Honilon
to allowing so small a child to perform in
public. Ills father says : "It would Injure-
the you off artist more to prevent him from
appearing than to allow him to apuear now
and then. j\j ho is aa artist , liu requires
that stimulant ; it helps him Instead ot hurt-
In u him. "

of play. Wlion he sits down at the piano ho
Is a man-ail artist , All at once ho begins to
iilny a p"aafio from a woll-lmown sonata in
his owil way , giving It aa interpretation
dllTerent from any other.
1 ( any ono says to him thntho Is wronpr , ho
looks up In nstnuiK'ovay und plays on , and
Ktijs af towards thit ; ho understands it us lie
plays it , and ho must play it In tlmt way and

Ho HCCS wbat ho plays , and he cnco told his
father while placing Beethoven's "Funeral

of her throat Dr , Mnckeuzio pronounced her
fears groundless nnd also gave It aq his opin
ion that the possessor of such strong and
beautiful vocal organs probably never would
lese her voice. The remarkable preservation

of singing' Is attributed to the natural use
which Madatno Patti has made of her voice.

what muttcri It is cut , -without rofercnco to

the great primn donna may bo the only fea

the matter Is attracting tlio attention of

"My vacation , " said Dr. Harslm to a BKE
roporUjr , "was spoilt at the seaside. The
watering places along the Atlantic coust
were more patronized this year , I was told ,
than they have buon for many years. Every
thing was full , and In some instances I know
of people walking about oil night , having no
place to sloop. The Sunday I was In Atlantic
City there wore 120,000 strangers there , nnd
moat of them \vcro In the water bathing nt
some time during tlio clay. The sea was lit

at Coney Island , Manhattan beach , Brighton
and Atlantic City. In tlicso places wo saw

and at Brighton u sort of Jovial mixture of
the two. Catholic priests hnvo a decided
penchant for Manhattan. I saw number * of

'lut ! alas , the most popular music nt the
scasldo this summer is neither by
Chopin , Mendelssohn , Gounod nor
Hath. "Annlo Koonoy" Is the goddess
before whom all classes of society
bow in vocal adoration. The Germans yc-ll
out tbo chorus over their beer , of course the
Irish slni ; of herns they mix their whisky ,
nnd the band Is always enthusiastically ap
plauded when the familiar strains urn struck
up. At Atlantic City on n Sunday afternoon
a cortrlnorchostrnwnsi kept playing thopleco
