Struggling Artist From Latin
Quarter Arrives in
New York.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-When the New
York of the American line, arrived here
yesterday the romance of a struggling
artist in the Latin Quarter of Paris was
revealed and a young couple were re-
united after being separated four years.
Josef Fachko, the artist. lived with his
parents in a small village near Paris
until Ave years ago, when he went to
Paris to develop a talent for painting.
The following year his parents left the
village and came to live in this country.
Every effort was made to induce the
young man to accompany them. but he
turned a deaf ear to their pleadings.
The next month Yvonne Roster, a
pretty little French girl, seventeen years
old, who lived in the same village with
Fachko, and who had been his play
mate and sweetheart since childhood;
also left for this country, accompanied
BY her parents. A second plea was

you and with my parents" said the
student, Il cannot now arord TO give

not be long and you must promise to
wait"
Miss Roster did wait and was with
Fachko's mother at the pier Yesterday
when the steamship arrived. Both the
mother and the young woman took re-
peated turns in embracing the artist. he
was dressed in the rakish attire pecu-
liar to the Latin quarter and attracted
no end OF attention on the pier Anyone
could tell he was an artist.
See, 1t IL all so grand that we did
wait" he said, crying with JOY. I have
