- LudieFous Incident In the Life 81
! the Famous Painter.
John w. Preyer, the famous painter
OF still life, was a remarkably small
specimen Of the genus homo, iffering,
however. from ordinary dwarfs in the
symmetry and exact proportion Of all3
the parts Of his diminutiye Frame
When between twenty and thirty
years Of age his fresh, ruddy and
beardless face and the shrill and boy.
ish tone OF his voice caused people to
take him for a child Of about eight ut
the most. This Illusion was still fur
ther heightened by his dress, short
black velvet jacket with a large turn
down collar, over which his smoothly
parted hair hung in thick clusters.
When about this age Preyer paid a
visit to Munich in order to inspect the
art treasures in that city and also to
visit his old patron, Master Cornelius,
former president of the Dusseldorf
academy. When Preyer called at the
house Of the latter he had gone out
and the servant who had answered the
door ran to tell her mistress that a lit
tie boy was waiting outside to see the
master. The lady went to speak to the
visitor. s>!%
What is it you want, my child?' she
asked the painter, who at the approach
of the lady took off his velvet cap and
made deep bow, saying in a shrill
voice: ~. y
II wish to speak to Mr., Cornelius"
He is not at home at present, but il
you will step inside you can wait for
him. He will not be long"
So saying, she took the little fellow
into the parlor and offered him q stool
to sit on. In short time the fair
hostess became quite charmed with
her youthful visitor, and at last she
lifted him on her lap and listened with
intense delight to the innocent prattle
of the clever "child.'' Suddenly the
door opened, and Cornelius himself APP
peared. Taking in the situation at a
glance, he cried: .a>.<l
"Ah, good morning, Mr.. Preyer.
How on earth did you get here?''
"Mr. Preyerv' And with shrek
Mrs. Cornelius jumped up, tumbled
Preyer on the floor and fed into the
next room, while Cornelius and Preyer,
after the latter had picked himself up
again, laughed till the tears streamed
down their cheeks. The former had
some difficulty in getting his wife to
come back again. At last she muster
ed sufficient courage to allow herself
to be formally introduced to the
strange visitor, who was retained as a
guest to dinner, over which the anna
BILE hostess presently regained her for.

STOCKS ADVANCE
ON W ALL STREET.
PRICE MOVEMENTS GENERALLY
NARROW.
Small Railroads. Below the Fifties,
Show Most strength-This Has an
Unfayorable Effect on Sentiment
Some Leading Stocks Gain Two
Points-D etailss of the Days Doings.

New York, Jan. ll.-There was some
slight irregularity in the opening market
to-day but the important stocks advanced.
The gain reached II in Baltimore & Ohio,
lyn Transit. Tha dealings were on a fair
~ large scale and well distributed.
Representative stocks did not share
fully in. the general strength Of stocks Of
small railroads particularly those whose
market values We're below the SOS. The
demand for this class of stock was large
and comprehensive.
Included in the gains of 1 and 2 points
were Chicago & Alton stocks,S Chicago
Great Western and athe preferred b; 4Du-
luth, South Shore & Atlantic. Chicago
Terminal preferred, Cleveland, Cincinnati,
Chicago & ST. Louis, Peoria e Eastern, ST.
Joseph & Grand Island first. and second
preferred.
Among the better known stocks the re-
suit reached a point in Pennsylvania,
Baltimore & Ohio. Brooklyn Transit, Peo-
pies Gas and General Electric. Standard
stocks hung back after making an aver
age rise of 81 and by IL o'clock this i'm
provement was largely curtailed
The conspicuous movemen in low grade
stocks had an unfaVorable effect on senti-
ment and there was a marked decrease
in activity and a. sagging tendency in
prices. There were gains in Colorado
Southern of l and Pacific Mail ~, while
I1leCCIlC leil ZIG. Lie move
ment generally was narrow.
Bonds were firm at noon.
A few stocks made fitful rallies but the
general list was virtually unchanged from
the midday prices. Business was a lit
tie heavier in the active stocks but there
was not enough movement to cause any
general following.
Buying orders for large amounts of the
Wabash securities were executed stimuli
taneously late in the afternoon. The COM
mon rose 1, the preferred 2, and the de-
bentures "B' bonds 21s. Texas Pacific
gained 1ss, and. Pennsylvania crossed 100.
The general market hardened slightly.
Wheeling & Lake Erie moved up a point
and the second preferred 8, following the
Wabashes and Pennsylvania on the rumor
that the differences between those roads
had been harmonized. Realizing under
cover of these advances became obvious
and the whole market reacted. Wabash
preferred and Missouri Pacific lost a point
and Brooklyn Transit IL Amalgamated
Copper fell rs under Saturday, National
Railroad of Mexico preferred IL, North
Western IL, Ice preferred ~ and Keo-
kuk & Des Moines AZ. Advances every
where were largely reduced or gave place
to small losses. The market steadied, but
was unsettled again by a. drop Of III under
Saturday by Rock Island. The closing
was dull and easy.
