MORHLO'S SLAVE How He Turned His Talent to Account For His FatEer and Himsel£ as Ik • One beautiful summer morning, about >the year 1030, several youths of Seville • approached the dwelling of the cele- brated painter Murillo, at which the? arrived nearly at the same time. After ;the usual salutations they entered the studio. Murillo was not yet there, and _each of the pupils walked up quickly to [his easel to examine if the paint had dried or perhaps to admire his work ot the previous evening. \Pray gentlemen,\ exclaimed Istu- ritz angrily,, \which of you remained •behind in the studio last;night?\; r \What an absurd question!\ replied jGordova. \Don't you recollect that we all came away together?\ : ^-\Thls Ja a foolish jest^ gentlemen.\ answerea isturitz. \Last evening \I cleaned my palette with the greatest care, and now it is as dirty as if some one had used it all night.\ \Look!\ exclaimed Carlos. \Here is a small figure in the corner of my can- vas, and i t is not badly done. I should like to know who it i s that amuses him- self every morning with sketching fig- ures sometimes on my canvas, some- times on the walls. \There was one yes- terday on your easel, Ferdinand.\ \It must be Isturitz,\ said Ferdinand. . \Gentlemen replied Isturitz, \I pro- test\— \You need not protest,\ replied Car- los. \We all know you are not capable of sketching such a figure as that.\ \At least,\ answered Isturitz, \I have never made a sketch as bad as that of yours. One would think you had done it in jest.\ \And my pencils are quite wet,\ said Gonzalo in his turn. \Truly strange tilings go on here during the night.\ \Do you not think, like the negro, Gomez, that it i s the Zombi who comes and plays all these tricks?\ said Istu- ritz. - \Truly said Mendez, who had -not yet spoken, being absorbed in admira- tion of the various figures which were sketched with the hand of a master in different parts of the. studio, \if the Zombi of the negroes draws in this fftanner he would make a beautiful head of the Virgin in my 'Descent From the Cross.' \ f plth these words Mendez, with a eless air, approached bis easel, when an exclamation of astonishment escaped him, and he gazed in mute surprise on his canvas, on which was roughly sketched a most beautiful head of the Virgin. But the expression was so admirable, the lines Were so clear, the contour was so graceful, that, com- pared with the figures by which it was encircled, it seemed as if some heaven- ly visitant had descended among them. \An what is the matter?\ said a rough voice.: The pupils turned at the sound, and all made a respectful obei- sancgjfco the great master* \Look Senor MuMUo, look!\ exclaim^ ed the youths as they pointed to the easel of Mendez. \Who has painted this? Who has painted this head, gentlemen?\ asked Murillo eagerly. \Speak! Tell me! He who has sketched this Virgin will one day be the master of us all. Murillo wishes he had done it. What a touch! What delicacy! What skill! Mendez, »y dear pupil, was J t you?\ «No, senor,\ replied Mendez in a sor- rowful tone. \Was it you, then, Isturitz, or Ferdir nand.br Carlos?\ i$ut they all gave the same reply as Mendez. ^1t could not, however, come here without hands,\ said Murillo impatient- ly.' • \t think, sir/' said Cordova, the youn- gest of th6 pupils, \that these strange pictures are very alarming. Indeed this is not the first unaccountable event jRhlch: fc|as happened, in iBUxSindJo. To I telT the\ trutET such wonderfultfhings '• iiave happeneS here one scarcely knows .what to believe.\ 1' \What are they?\ asked Murillo, still • Ebsst in admiration of the head of the j Virgin by the unknown artist. \According to your orders, senor,\ answered Ferdinand, \we never leave the studio without- putting everything in order, cleaning our palettes, -washing our brushes and arranging our easels, but when we return in the morning\ not only is everything in confusion, ,our brushes filled with paint, palettes dirt- led, but here and there are sketches- beautiful sketches, to be sure, they are —sometimes of the head* of an angel, sometimes of a demon, then again the profile of a young girl or the figufe~of an old r^n, but all admirable, as you have seen for yourself, senor.\ \This is certainly a curious affair, gentlemen,\ observed Murillo, \but we shall soon learn who is this nightly vis- itant -.Sebastian,\ he continued, ad- dressing a little mulatto boy about 14 years old who appeared at his call, \did I not desire you t o sleep here every night?\ \Yes master,\ said the boy, with ti- midity. \And have you done so?\ \Yes master.\ \Speak then. Who was here last night and this morning before these gentlemen came? Speak, slave, or I shall make you acquainted with my dungeon,\ said Murillo angrily to the boy, who continued to twist the band pf his trousers without replying. \Ah you don't choose to answer?\ said Murillo, pulling his edr. \No one, master, no one,\ replied the trembling'Sebastian^with eagerness. \That is false!\ exclaimed Murillo. \No one but me, I swear to you mas- ter!\ cried the mulatto, throwing him- self on his knees in the middle of the studio and holding out hia little hajids In supplication before his master. \Listen to me,\ pursued Murillo. \I wish to know, who has sketched this head of the Virgin and all the figures which my pupils rind every morning here on coming to the studio. This night in place of going to bed you shall keep watch, and if by tomorrow you do not discover who the culprit is you shall have 23 strokes from the lash. You hear; I have said it. Now g o and, grind the colors, and, you, gentlemen, to work.\ From the commencement till the termination of the hour of instruction Murillo was too much absorbed with his pencil to allow a word to be spoken but what regarded their occupation, but the moment he disappeared the pupils made ample amends for this re- straint, and as the unknown painter occupied all their thoughts the conver- sation naturally turned to that subject. \Beware Sebastian, of the lash,\ said Mendez, \and watch for the cul- prit, but give me the Naples yellow.\ \You do not need it, Senor Mendez. You have made it yello'w enough al- ready. And as to the culprit, I have already told you that it is the Zombi.\ \Are these negroes fools or asses with their Zombi?\ said Gonzalo, laughing. \Pray what is a Zombi?\ \Oh arf imaginary being, of course! igpt-JLaJia, care, Seno& Gonzalq,\ . coa-. \*\ ued Sebastian, wit^-lTTSrs'chiev-ous-; rnce at Ms easel, \for it must be the mbi who has stretched the left arm ot\ your St. John to such a length that if the right resembles it he will be able to untie his shoestrings without stoop- ing.\ \Do ^you know, gentlemen,\ said Is- turitz as ho glanced at the painting, \that the remarks of Sebastian are ex- tremely just and much to the point?\ \Oh they say that negroes.have the face of an ape and the tongue of a par- rot,\ rejoined Gonzalo in a tone of in- difference. \With this distinction,\ observed Ferdinand, \that the parrot repeats by rote, while Sebastian has^judgment in his remarks.\ \Like the parrot, by chance,\ return- ed Gonzalo. \Who knows,\ said Mendez, who had not digested the Naples yellow, \that from grinding the colors he may one day astonish us by showing he knows one from another?\ \To know one color from another and to know how to use them are two very different things,\ replied Sebas- tian, whom the liberty of the studio allowed to join in the conversation of the pupils. And the tri^th obliges us to confess that his taste was so ex- quisite, his eye so correct, that many of them did not disdain to follow the advice he frequently gave them re- specting their paintings. Although they sometimes amused themselves by teas- ing the little mulatto, he was a great favorite with them all, and this even- ing on quitting the studio each, giving him a friendly tap on the shoulder, counseled him to keep a strict watch and catch the Zombi for 7 fear of the lash. It was night, and the studio of Mu- rillo, the most celebrated painter in Se-_ ville—this studio, which during the day was so cheerful and animated—was- now silent as the grave. A single lamp burned upon a marble table, and a young boy, whose sable hue har- monized with the surrounding dark- ness, but whose eyes sparkled like dia- monds at midnight, leaned against an easeL Immovable and still, he was s o deeply absorbed in his meditations that the door of the studio was opened by one who several times called him by name and who, on receiving no answer, approached and touched him. Sebas- tian raised his eyes, which rested on a tall and handsome negro. \Why do you come here, father?\ said he in a melancholy tone. •'To keep you company, Sebastian.\ \Thefe is no need, father. I can watch alone.\ \But what if the Zombi should come?\ *% do not fear him,\ replied the tooy, with a pensive smile. \He may carry yon away, my son, and then the poor negro Gomez will have no one to console him to his slav- ery.\ \Oh. how sad—how dreadful-it is to be a slave!\ exclaimed the boy, weep- ing bitterly. \It is the will of God.\ replied the ne- gro, with an air of resignation. ^ . - \God!\ ejaculated Sebastian as he raised his eyes to the dome of the stu- dio, through which the stars glittered, \God! I pray constantly to him, my father—and he will one day listen to me—that we may no longer be slaves. But go to bed, father; go, go, and I shall go t o mine there to that comer, and I shall soon fall asleep. Good night, father; good night.\ *<Are you really not afraid of the Zombi, Sebastian?\ \My father, that Js a superstition or our country. Father Eugenio has as- sured me thaS.God does not permit su> pernatural beings to appear OH earth,\ \Why then, when the pupils asked you who sketched the figures they find here every morning did you say i t was the Zombi?\ ^ \To amuse myself, fatber^jMid to or; . v .---*.' .'.Murillo kept his word, and Sebastian Gomez, better known under the ; name of the Mulatto of Murillo, beeanie one of the most celebrated painters in Spain. There may yet be seen in the churches* of Seville the celebrated pic- ture which he had been found painting by bis master; also & Si Anne, admira- bly done* a holy Joseph which is ex- tremely beautiful and others of the highest merit JMneate Your BoweU With CMeant* C»ndy Catortic.

' • \Twenty-five lashes tomorrow if I do . not tell who sketched these figures and perhaps more if I do. Oh, my GVd. come to my aid!\ And the little mulat- to threw himself upon the mat which, served him for a bed, where he soon fell fast asleep. Sebastian awoke \at daybreak. It was only 3 o'clock. Any other boy would' probably have gone to sleep again. Not s o Sebastian, who had'but three hours he could call Ms own. \Courage courage, Sebastian!\ he exclaimed as he shook himself awake. \Three hours are thine—only three hours! Then profit by them. The Test belong to thy master, slave. Let me at least be my own ma'ster for threeT- short hours. To begin these, figures must be effaced^ _ And seizing a brush he approached the Virgin, which, view- ed by the soft light of the' MofrBn^ dawn, appeared more beautiful than ever. ' *- \Efface this!\ he exclaimed. \Bffaee this! No; I will die first! Efface this! They dare not. Neither dare I. No— that head—she breathes—she speaks— it seems as if her blood WjOuld flow if I should offer to efface it and that I should be her murderer. No, no, no; rather let me finish it.\ *\ Scarcely had he uttered these words when, seizing a palette, he seated him- self at the easel and was soon totally absorbed at his occupation. Hour aft- er hour passed unheeded by Sebastian, who was too nfbch engrossed by the beautiful creation of his pencil, which seemed bursting into life, to mark the flight of time. \Another touch!\ he exclaimed. \A soft shade here; now the mouth. Yes, there! It opens those eyes. They pierce me through. What a forehead! What delicacy! Oh, my beautiful\^- And Sebastian forgot the hour, forgot he was a slave, forgot his dreaded pun- ishment--all, all was obliterated from' the soul of the youthful artist, who thought of nothing, saw nothing, but his beautiful picture. But who can describe the horror and consternation of the unhappy slave when, on suddenly turning round, he beheld all the pupils, with his master at their head, standing beside him. Sebastian never once dreamed of jus- tifying himself, and, with his palette in one hand and his brushes in the other, he hung down his head, awaiting in si- lence the punishment -he believed he justly merited. For some moments a dead silence prevailed, for if Sebastian was confounded at being, caught in*the commission of such a flagrant crime Murillo and his pupils.were not less astonished at the discovery they had made. Murillo, having with a gesture of the hand imposed silence on his'pupils, who could hardly restrain themselves from g'iving way to their admiration, ap- proached Sebastian and, concealing his emotion, said in a cold and severe tone, while he looked alternately from the beautiful head of the Virgin to the ter- »Mfl^LsJajsaft»aShftaiftaiJlike»«>»i fore him: \Who is your master, Sebastian?\ \You v replied the boy in a voice scarcely audible. \I mean your drawing master?\ said Murillo.\ \You senor,\ again replied the trem- bling slave. \It cannot be. I never gave you les- sons,\ said the astonished painter. \But you gave them to others, and I listened to them,\ rejoined the boy, em- boldened by the kindness of his master. ,l-\And you ha\fe. done better than lis- ten. You have profited by them!\ ex- claimed Murillo, unable longer to con- ceal his admiration. \Gentlemen does this boy merit punishment or reward?\ At the word \punishment\ Sebas- tian's heart beat quick. The word \re- ward\ gave him a little courage; but, fearing that his ears deceived him, h e looked with timid and imploring eyes toward mis master. \A reward, senori\ cried the pupils in a breath. \That is welL But what shall it be?\ Sebastian began to breathe. \Ten ducats at least,\ said Mendez. \Fifteen!\ cried Ferdinand. \No said Gonzalo; \a beautiful new Sress for the next holiday.\ *Speak, Sebastian,\ said Murillo, looking at his slave, whom none of these rewards seemed to move. \Are these things not to your taste? Tell me what you wish for. I am s o much pleased with your beautiful composi- tion that I will grant any request you may make. Speak\ then. Do not be afraid.\ \Oh master, if I dared\— And Se- bastian, clasping his hands, fell at the feet of his master., It was easy to read in the half open- ed lips of thesfboy and his sparkling eyes some devouring thought within which timidity prevented him from ut- tering. With the view of encouraging him each of the pupils suggested some fa- vor for him to demand. \Ask gold, Sebastian.\ \Ask rich dresses, Sebastian.\ \Ask to.be received as pupil, Sebas- tian,\ A faint smite passed over the counte- nance of the slave at the last words, but he hung down his head and re- mained silent. \Ask for the best place in the stur JUoV' said.^onWo, who from being lhe~ last conie pupil had the worst, light for his easeL % \Come take courage,\ said Murillo sayly- \The master is so kind today,\ said Ferdinand half aloud, 'T Would risk something. Ask your freedom, Sebas- tian.\ , * *•\' At these words Sebastian uttered a ;ry of anguish, and, raising his eyes to. his master* he exclaimed to a voice choked with sobs: j \The freedom of my father—the fre&- tiomof my father!\ \And thine also-,\ said Murillo, who, TTO longer able to-conceal his-emotion, \threw his arms around Sebastian and pressed him to his breast. \Your pencil,\ he continued, /'shows that you have talent; your request proves that you have a heart; the artist is complete. From this day consider yourself not only as my pupil, but as my son. Happy Murillo!

There are t o be seen crea- tures, not singly, but in teas of thou- sands, whose every appearance, do*vn to the minutest spot and wrinkle, is an affront to truth, whose e\. cry attitude is a pose for a purpose and whose life is a sustained he. Before these mas- terpieces of- deception the most in- genious of human impositions are vul- gar and transparent. Fraud is not, only the great rule of iiie in a tropical forest, but the oue condition of it.\ •Drummond's statements are perhaps a little misleading without some quali- fication, for animals are not impostors in the ordinary sense of the term, since they are, of course, perfectly Unaware of appearing under a - deceptive dis- guise. Moreover, what is true of ani- mal life in the tropics is also in great measure true of animal life in other re- gions of the globe. In the development of deceptive dis- guises—disguises which affect the form, attitude and color, but largely the color, of animals—nature appears to have proceeded along two different paths, one of which is direct and relatively easy, the other circuitous and much more .difficult. The easy path, which may be considered first, is that of pro- tective resemblance pure and simple— i. e., an approach in the animal's form, color and attitude to some object in the surroundings. Such an> approximation can hardly fail to b e of the greatest ad- vantage, since the animal thereby merges so completely with its environ- ment as t o pass unobserved by its ene- mies or by its prey. This alternative has led i n two directions—to a defen- sive and an aggressive form of resem- blance. Every sportsman has been deceived by the close resemblance of birds and other animals to the soil and vegeta- tion. It would be easy, moreover, to shpw„ that many of..the. lower animals Siugle copies of TEO£ Copies tnj&y be \qbtaitied from*ttiis office or fro© \ all newsdealers. .Adveriisiiig\ rjites -wilt* be; made iaiotra on ap- plication. ** Marriagfe afltlf death, announcements free. is-thenew treatment for dyspepsia, indigestion and all stomach troubles, now largely used by the medical pro- fession^ **\ The secret of the success of these famous tablets (for Baconia is pre- pared in th£ tablet form), is that' they first cleanse the stomach, and then reit it and aid in the work of digestion.

It is also well known that s6m^o1r SE rm-sig^r*a^! tures, like the chameleons, many tree frogs, cuttlefishes and shrimps, can actually change their colors' to make them harmonize with the exac\ tints of the vegetation or soil, on which they are livingl. But no animal can compare with the insects and spiders in ithe detailed perfection of their protective disguises or in the frequency of adopting, this method of eluding enemies or of stealthily approaching prey. This is true notwithstanding the fact that ac- tive color changes like those of the chameleon are scarcely known to occur among bisects: Many of the most striking example's of protective resemblance among in- sects are the result of the very inti- mate association of these animals with the. flora of bur planet Especially is this true of insects which live expos- ed on the vegetation. There is really no portion of the plant excepting its roots and fruits which is not copied by some insect, often with the most as- tonishing faithfulness to details. Hosts of moths copy the rough lichen mot- tled bark of trees, the walking sticks and ldbping caterpillars copy the twigs, the green leaves are imitated by the katydids and the marvelous leaf in- sects (phyllium) of the East Indies, while the dead leaves are portrayed by many moths and butterflies, a form of resemblance culminating in the famous kallima^ butterflies of* southern Asia. Striking resemblances, to thorns and knots are to be faund among spiders and leaf hoppers.

There used to be a bartender in a Clark street sa- loon who had a glass eye, arid it was a regular thing for him to come here ince a month and pledge the artificial tptic. 'He used to call it his 'bum lamp.' He left Chicago some time ago and is now tending bar in a small town near Milwaukee, where there is no pawn- shop. Last week we received a box b y mail from him, and it contained the artificial eye! He was in hard luck, he wrote, and he wanted a loan of $3 o n the eye. We sent him the money by re- turn mail. If he lives, he will redeem the optic, because it is worth five times the amount of the loan, although it is worthless to us if he should fail to take it out. I venture to say that he has pawned the eye 20 times in -the last three years. He is tone of our best .cus- tomers. \Some years ago we had a restaurant man for a customer who would .put his cork leg in pawn every time he got into straits. It was a high grade artificial limb, and he could get $25 on i t at any _ pawnshop* in. the city. The last time we took it as a pledge, the owner went out to South Chicago to see a friend, and while returning home he was killed by a locomotive. His widow refused.to an- swer our letters, in which we offered her the limb at her own price. \A year ago last holiday time a young woman came into the store one after- noon carrying a box. She was em- ployed at a museum as a snake charm- er, and in the box she had a collection of reptiles, which, she said, was the' finest in the country. Her mother had died that day i n Boston, and she had been notified by telegraph.

The necessity of taking food in sdclal fashion is an inherent; racial sort of thing, and those who.go against it for years usually have to pay for it with some of the ills of indigestion.

I charged her 20 per cent a week for the loan, because we had t o care for the snakes during Mer absence. That wasn't much, was it? j \In' all my experience the strangest thing ever given to me in pawn was a set of false teeth. A man came into the place one night just as we were closing. He lived in Laporte, Ind., and was robbed of his pooketbook on a street car. He knew nobody, to go to for a loan, and i t was imperative that he catch a train for Laporte that night. I believe his wife or daughter was. very sick, and he had come to Chicago to make arrangements with a hospital to bring the sick person here. He had no jewelry whatever—not even a ring- to pledge for the $2 that he needed to buy a raik-oad ticket. I sized him up at once as an honest man, and he had papers to show that he was a resident of Laporte. While he was talking he took the false teeth out of.his mouth and begged me to loan him $2 on the set. I did so, and a day or two later, when he called to redeem the teeth, he was the most thankf u i man I ever met in this business. And yet some people say that the pawnbroker, is a heartless man.\—Chicago Inter- Ocean. Fishes f hat Carry Batteries. The \torpedo or \cramp fish,\ has two complete electric batteries on ei- ther side of its head, constructed after the most approved scientific principles. Each .of them consists of about 470 eellsi in the shape of six\ sided tubes placed sfde by side. The walls of these cells are lined with nerve, tissue, and eaeh one i s filled with'a dear, trem- bling jelly. Precisely how many volts this duplex galvanic apparatus,-is ca r pable of administering has never been determined,, but frequent experience has shown the power to be -sufficient -to\ knoek down and temporarily par- alyze a man. ' Natives in Central America are said to make a practice of driving wild horses Into ^water where cramp-fish are in order that the- latter may stun the frightened quadrupeds affd make thpm easy to capture. So that a shook shall be administered, the object' must be brought Info contact at two points with the torpedo,.thus completing the elec- 'tr|c ehJcnit.' : &elenfinc men regard this as one of the most interesting -of natural phe-r nomeni.
