OBEDIENCE: TO, THE. DEATH.

A Detachable Anecdote@ of Napoleon, the
Gar, and the Prussian King. -.
The editor of Gil Bias vouches for the
truth of this story: Napoleon was en-
tertaining the Car Alexander and the
Prussian king at breakfast in Tlsit,
when the conversation turned on loyalty.
'My soldiers obey me blindly," said
the car.
'.And mine are anxious to die FOR me, :"
added Napoleon.
At the suggestion Of the Prussian king
test Of devotion was agreed upon. The
royal party were breakfasting in the
fifth story of building that faced
paved street. Each member was to call
in one Of his soldiers and command him
to jump from the window. Napoleon
made the first test.
"Call the Gardiste Marcua," he COM
manded, and Marcau appeared.
'sWill you obey any order I give your"
asked Napoleon.

"Blindly, whatever it is?"
"Blindly, sire"
''Then Jump out Of that window"
'1But have wife and two children,
sire"
81 will care for them. Forwardl'
And the Gardiste Marcau, with mill
tary salute, walked to the window and
leaped out.
''Call private Of the body guard"
ordered the czar, whose turn came next.
The soldier came.

man, and he did it.
Command the bravest Of my soldiers
to come here" said the Prussian king to
his servant. A six foot uhlan, with O
row Of orders across his breast and a
scar on his forehead, entered.
"My friend" explained the king, ''to
show their loyalty a French and Rus
sian guardsman have jumped at COM
mand from that window. Have you the
pluck to do"the sameY'
SIS it for the fatherlandY'

"Then l refuse to do it."
Gil Bias thinks this anecdote contains
fine lesson for German army officers
of the present.

The rehearsal now began, and in much

vanished; the other actors were reas-

You suggest IN vague sort of way your
capability of ultimately grasping this
idea when you say you miss Senator In
gals plaid pants. Now, to the real ar
fist, it doesn' Z make bit of difference
whether in fact he wears plaid pants or
not; IL plaid pants match his character
better than those he actually wears, the
artist must dress him as BELTS him. So
with regard to attitudes. / don't know
whether Senator Ingalls,, for example,
ever took hand in q genteel prize fight
or posed as an elegant tough, but when
the artist looks at him he must see him
IN the attitudes that fit him. At this
point Senator ingalls, got up and walked
back into the smoking room, and every
time he passed up and down before the
open door the artist brought his instan-
taneous pencil to bear on him with such
effect that the pictures he made were
more like ingalls, than Ingalls, is like
himself. WILLIS B. HAWKINS.

rwhat fine old tree he must have
been when he was on earth before!''
"Why tree?"
"Don' t you notice how much his mind
is like a tree; how his mental sap starts
up the trunk of Il subject and turns off
into every branch, every twig, every
stem and every vein of every leaf?''
"Xes; and results in shutting off the
light from every shrub and herb beneath
it,"
This conversation was waxing so super
poetic that l shut it of by calling Mr..
Mast IS attention to Senator Eyarts face
in repose. At once his pencil began to
jiggle through series of odd gyrations.
But his mind was not wholly on the pic
ture he was making. His injured soul
seemed TO be grating its teeth over the
ignominious manner in which he was
hustled from the gallery last week.
"But executive sessions are secret, -
/ said.
"What of that?' he answered, tartly.
"I'n bet 7 can keep secret as well as
any senator here.
''But you know the senators are sworn
to secrecy, while you are not -
''Then there S all the more likelihood
that ] wouldn t blab. When you swear
a man to keep secret he has two .incen-
tives for telling 1.-THE desire to let
somebody else Into it and the desire to
violate his oath. What did they do at
that secret session? Have you heard?''

confirmed few foreign appointments. -

Mr.. Mast. t'He could have got even
with Bismarck for obieoting to the
American hog

''Why, of course if he had gone over
there no would have taken his pen with
him. But then perhaps it is just as well,
since he has now transported it to

strange lines meant until he added a
reposeful-looking nose to them. 1 re-
called what Napoleon said about noses,
and fancied / could see the Emperor
looking in admiration at this picture
and declaring his willingness to abb
dictate in favor of the owner and pos
SCISSOR of that nose.
Just then Senator ingalls, came in and
looked over the senate with searching
eye. Seeing nothing else that he wanted
to take, he took his seat.
''There; do you think you can draw
him?'' asked.
"Who? The great small man from
Kansas?''

therein completed-fer anybody ought
to have known whose feet and shins
those were that were published last
week-but as an evidence of Mr.. Mast s
good faith in the matter and as an in
dication that had he been permitted to
remain in the gallery during the secret
session he would have made some very
readable pictures.
f'Of course you know who that Sen
ator is, - said, as 1 entered the gal
lery and found Mr.. Mast busily engaged
upon the remaining half of the picture.

pied by his colleague
"But 1t seems to be vacant most of the
time"
Exactly! That is what say; it is
occupied by the other senator from New
York.
Mr.. Mast seemed to be very much
drawn TO Senator Eyarts; and when q
man draws Mr.. Mast, Mr.. Mast always
returns the compliment by drawing him.

say he looks it. And as for this picture

had been drawn through knot hole -

"What's the matter with itl''
''Why it looks as if the senator were
conscious that his picture was being
taken and had struck an attitude for the
purpose. Now that sort of thing is what
one may expect of theatrical actors, but
1t is hardly up TO the dignity of United
does Senator ingalls, great injustice in
this respect, Mr.. Mast. -
81 suppose, then you want something
of the conventional sort. Very we'll;
how does this life-size portrait suit yon?''
s'That is much better, though it seems
really too bad to sacrifice the senator's
dreamy looking plaid pants. Don t you
yourself. Mr.. Mast, think this is better
style Of picture of a United States sem
ater than one in which he seems to be
posing consciously"
''No, don't, and may as well tell
you right now that what you don I know
about the art of picture making would
cut up into strips and reach from here to
nowhere. Sir, you must get character
in picture. 1t Is not enough to make
something that looks like the man; it
must be the very man himself on paper.
