Honored by Beaaty Judges
in Three Big European Cities, and Restered by
Proposals in Consequence, Has Just Giuen Her
Hand to Rising Yomq Neu York Doctor.

New York.-The four grim gray
walls OF the city prison over on Black
wells Island have been just bursting
with the secret of q romantic engage
ment.. and there is a smile these days
on the faces of the forlorn creatures
forced to live therefor the fortunate
man is DR.. Philip B. Matz, assistant
physician to the prison and the friend
OF every unfortunate inmate of that
place. according to the Sunday World.
The heroine in the case is Miss Jo-
sephine Brown. who lives at No. 20i
West Ninety-fourth street. New York
1t was on a mission OF mercy to the
island that Miss Brown met Dr. Matz
but to begin at the beginning:
A little over IL years ago Chicago
was taking a very great interest in
deed in little seven-year-old girl who
could play the violin with the skill of
born artist. The little one was Jo-
sephine Brown. She had won her
honors at a series OF public concerts.
A year or two later she enm5 TO New
York with her mother. and added TO
her fame as a violinist was her repu-
tation for childish beauty. The almost
perfectly formed features OF her face.
the magnificent black eyes and long.
jet-black hair acclaimed her wherever
she appeared. Those who were
charmed with her then predicted that
as she grew older she would become
one Of the most beautiful women In
the world.
In New York Mrs. Brown secured
for her daughter the leading violin
teachers. and very soon musicians
and artists were attracted toward the
little western girl. Photographers.
artists in black and white and those
who painted in oil besieged the
mother TO allow Josephine to pose for
them. Mrs. Brown granted as many
OF these requests as possible. and the
Madonna-like face of the little girl
became well known In the artists
studios OF the city.

Became Girls Patron.
Her skill on the violin. even more
than her beauty. had attracted the at.
tention of the lawyer when she first
came to the city. Through friends Mr.
H1mmel was introduced to her and
ner mother. Eventually he became the
acknowledged patron of the little girl
He obtained the best teachers for her,
arranged concerts at which she played
and secured her introductions into the
homes of the socially prominent in
New York and Newport What sue
cess has come to Miss Brown she
owes largely to the kindly interest OF
Mr.. Hummel
And Miss Brown was grateful.
She was not content TO tell only OF
the many kindnesses he had done for
her and her mother. She did more.
The first day the convicted lawyer
sent word to the outside world from
his cell in prison that he would like
to see those of his old friends who
still cared to see him. Miss Brown was
one of the first TO hurry TO him with
flowers and fruit and some dainty
jelly that her mother had made with
her own hands. II was the sight of
his little friend that brought the first
smile TO the face OF the little lawyer
that any one had seen after his con
yiction.
