lawyer was making what an ex-
Senator would call a 'halcyon and

sitting next to Davis, turned as IL

his head, expecting to hear some
profound observation on the law in
the case. The venerable Grier

Baron James Rothschild, the
head of the Paris branch of the
great financial house, who died on
Tuesday, was great lover and lib
eral patron of the arts. 1t is relat.
ed of him that Eugene DelacroiX.
dining one day in Baron James de
Rothschild's hospitabIe home, fixed
his eyes repeatedly on his host in
30 searching q manner that the lat
ter could not help asking his guest,
when they. had left the dining
room, what it was that had to such
q degree riveted his attention. De-
lacrOix acknowledged that, having
for some time been vainly search
ing for q head such as he would like
to have for prominent beggar in
struck with what splendid model
the Crpsus would make who was
entertaining him at his table.
Would 1t be too great a favor to ask
the Baron to sit for beggar?
Rethschild, who was fond of art,
and not displeased to be reckoned
among its chief protectors, grace
fully assented to act q part prOba.
bly, never performed before by q
millionaire, and appeared next
morning in the celebrated painters
studio. Delacroix hung a tunic on
his shoulders, placed a tall staff in
his hand and assigned to him a
posture, as il he were resting on
the steps of an ancient Roman
temple.
In this attitude he was discov-
cred by young friend and pupil
Of the painters, who alone had the
privilege Of being admitted to the
studio at all times. Surprised by
the excellence of the model, he
congratulated his master on hav-
ing at last found exactly what he
wanted. Not for moment doubt
ing that the model had just been
begging at the porch Vf some
church or at the corner of bridge,
and much struck by his features,
the young man, espying moment
When the artists eyes were avert
ed, slipped twenty.franc piece
into the models hand. Rothschild
Kept the money, thanking the
giver by look, and the young man
went his way. He was, as the bank
er found out from Delacroix,
without fortune and Obliged to give
lessons in order to exc out his liv-
ing. Some time later the youth
