WHY Ht LIKES ANNIE LAURIE.
A Tenor Who, When a Mttle I5oy, Sun:;
for General Sherman's Soldier.
"Why do I think so much of that heauti
fill old song, 'Annie Laurie'!'" said Albert
U. Tides, the tenor, to a reporter at a
gathering of musical people the other even
ing. "Well. I will tell you. Ever since I I
wits two years old I have loved that song, j
It was tho lirst one I ever learned, anil 1 j
was fully seven years old before I cared for j
mother. One day, soon alter 1 lenrncd it,
my lucthcr missed me from the house. She
made .1 diligent though fruitless search for
me in the neighborhood for several hours,
finally a policeman came along who said,
after listening to her story, 'Why, that
must be the little fellow with long yellow
curls that follows the Italian organ grinder
nearly every day and sings"Annie Laurie"
for him. I just left the pair at the corner
of street.'
"I often think what nn Interesting ap
pearance I must have presented on my lirst
concert tour. I had run away from the
hoitso in order to go barefooted, and had
followed the organ, singing when its owner
played my favorite tune. When I was
only six years old I had the honor to sing
'Annie Laurie' before General Sherman
nnd his staff
"I shall never forgot that day. It was in
ISl'4. The army hail just returned from
the south and was encamped on Hiker's
Island. One day my brother, who was an
aide-de-camp to the general, obtained per
mission for my mother and me to visit the
island. I was dressed in black velvet, with
n wide linen collar, and had a soft hat of
black felt stuck jauntily over my curls.
As I walked about the village of whitecau
vas, the officers nnd men would conic out
nnd hug and kiss me ns they thought of
their own dear ones at home whom they
should soon he permitted to see again. I
was the lirst child they had seen since their
arrival north.
"Some one, probably my brother, had
told them about my song and they inane
mw sing it. As I sang, the tears would
flow down the rugged clicks of the dear
old fellows as, with broken voices, they
joined in t he chorus. Their approval took
ft practical form. My pockets snrm began
to be heavy with coins of various kinds.
Many a man gave me the last cent he had
in the world. None of them had much
money at that time, I fancy.
"I received just 4T1 00 besides a bag of
crackers which a kind hearted soldier gave
me. Dad luck, however, attended me.
The tug which had brought us from this
city wont awnynnd left us. We had to
hire a fanner to take us in an ox cart to
the ot her side of tho island, where we took
a ferryboat.. The farmer charged us five
dollars, which about used up my first pro
fessional fee.
"My love for t he song is so well known
in the fnusienl profession that an American
woman violinist, in order, ns she said, to
keep peace in the family, has nicknamed
my wife 'Annie Laurie.' "New York Trib
une. Wnshlng Tret tt u Maniago Ceremony.
Washing tho feet seems to be intimately
connected with weddings. In the old Ro
man days the feet of the bride and bride
groom were washed after the ceremony
hud been performed. The custom of wash
ing the bride's feet does not seem to have
been so prevalent as that of washing the
bridegroom's. Wood, in his "Wedding
Day in All Ages," only gives one instance
of the former. Ho says, "Among the nn
cient Poles tho bride walked three times
round a fire, then sat down nnd washed
her feet." He refers more frequently to
washing the bridegroom feet.
In India the daughter of a Brahmin is
dressed by her father in a festive dress, and
washm the bridegroom's feet, the bride's
mother pouring out the water for that pur
pose. In Malabar the bridegroom's feet are
washed by a young relation; and in some
parts of Java the bride, ns a sign of her
subjection, kneels and washes tho feet of
the bridegroom when he enters the house.
Somewhat nnnlogous customs prevail
among the agricultural classes of the east
of Scotland. The actual ceremony is fall
ing somewhat into desuetude, though the
"feet washing" is still the name given to
an evening of hilarious enjoyment preced
ing the marriage by a day or two." The
practice is common in the norl h of Scot
land both in relation to bride and bride
groom, and so far as the latter is concerned
usually gives rise to some horse play.
