The Salt Lake Herald-Republican Nr. 51 (Salt Lake City, Utah) bringt auf S. 14 (= S. 7 des Magazin-Teils) die Anekdote, die nach Bruckners Tod mehrfach veröffentlicht worden war (zwischen 31.10.1896 und 16.1.1897):

"     Anton Bruckner, the Austrian composer, was so enthusiastic over his work that once he commenced to play, it was difficult to stop him. He once competed for the post of court organist at Vienna, each candidate being allowed twenty-five minutes, and played for over an hour before the judges could stop him. Once in the Crystal Palace in London he played until he exhausted the organ blowers and the wind gave out.–Etude."
