From the CaUeman'S Pencil
GARRETT +. SERVIsS.

A good definition OF man would be
the picture-mslting animal Just as
the school child usually begins TO draw
ruds figures OF men and women. dogs,
cats and horses, as soon as It gets COM
mand of a slate and a pencil so in the
childhood OF our race the pictorial genius
Of humanity showed itself by rude draw
ings ami rough paintings made on the
walls OF the caverns which were mems
first permanent homes
Within a few years past great num-
Der Of prehistoric cave pictures have
been brought to light, especially in the
lower slopes Of the Pyronees mountains,
on both the French and the spanish
sides, and in the mountains OF southern
Spain. The reader can Judge from what
he sees on this page Of the surprising
nature of these pictures made by Neou-
thic man centuries before what we call
history began in Europe.
Colonel Willoughby Werner is one of
the latest discoveries OF cave pictures
in Spain, and photograph Of them hero
! reproduced is due to him.
The pictures are not mere curiosities,
I but they throw light upon the char
! acter Of those ancient representatives OF
| man and upon the appearance of the
/ world at time so remote that even the
| use OF iron, bronze or copper had not yet
| been dreamed Of To come upon them
| in the gloomy recesses of caverns which
are often situated In places not easily
reached, Is like getting an unexpected
view behind a curtain that has not been
| lifted for many ages.
| The outlines OF the drawings are so
! like the rude sketches made by children
that one can at first hardly persuade
himself that they are the work of men
doing their best to picture the scenes
around them, while on the other hand
the drawings are so perfectly preserved
| in many cases that 1t is equally difficult
to realize their enormous age.
In the caves examined and photo
graphed by Colonel Werner the drawings
are usually made with red or yellow
pigments on the light-colored sandstone
of the walls. Sometimes there are two
or three sets of drawings which have
been made one over the other with diff
ferent colored pigments. The animals
represented include stays, kinds, ibexes,
oxen, horses. wolves. dogs, fishes. birds,
ETC., as well as men and women.
A very interesting circumstance Is that
some of the men are represented as
carrying bows. Colonel Werner thinks
that the pictures in one Of the Anda
lusian caves were intended to repre-
sent hunting scenes. This is extremely
interesting, because the same motive is
found in many OF the drawings of a much
higher artistic character that were made
by the ancies,t inhabitants of Greece and
of Crete.
