Copyright, 2839, by Ervin Wardman. /AWvA/VV\J I believe that only one person has succeeded in fixing the real face of Paganini on paDer.' He is a deaf painter named Lyser, who, in his brilliant madness, drew the head of Paganini so well with a few strokes of his crayon that the beholder laughs and is fright ened at once at the resemblance. "The devil directed my hand," said the deaf painter to me, giggling mysteriously .and nodding with good natured irony, as.he was used to do when he indulged in his harmless jests. This painter . ever had been a curious creature. Despite his deafness he loved music en thusiastically, and it is said that if he was near enough to the orchestra he could read the music from the faces -of the musicians and that he could judge of the more or less successful execution by their finger motions. In deed, he wrot? the operatic criticisms for an important, newspaper of Hanir burg. After all, what is there wonder ful in this? The deaf painter could, see the tones In the visible signature of the music/ There are persons to whomx the tones themselves are only invisible signatures, in which they.hear j colors and forms. j I am .sorry that ' 1 own that little i ?drawing of Lyser's no longer. Only in glaring b?ack, hasty lines could there be seized those fablelike features. . which seemed to belong more to the j sulphurous shadow realm than to the ' sunny world v. * life. "Assuredly the devil guided my band." insisted the deaf - painter, as ? .we stood before the Alster pavilion in i Hamburg on the day when Paganini . ?T"v? his first concert there. "Yes, my ; friend," he continued, "it is trae what 1 the whole world is saying-that he has : sold himself to the devil, body 'nd soul, to become the bos': violin player, j to fiddle, millions into his pockets, and first to get away, from the slave gal- j ley. where he had suffered so many ; years. For see, friend, when he was orchestra leader in Lucca, he fell in love with a theater princess, became ! jealous of a priest, stabbed his faith- I less Amata in good Italian style, was ; sent to the galley in Genoa and, as 1 ! have said, sold himself to the devil to : get away, to become the best violin player and to lay each one of us under ; tribate tonight to the extent of $2. But j see you! All good spirits praise God! ; See, there he comes himself, with his j suspicious familiar." Indeed it waa Paganini himself. He ? wore a dark gray overcoat, which reached to his feet, making him look . very tail. The long, black hair fell to I his shoulders in torn curls and formed I a dark frame around the pale, corpse- j like face, on which sorrow, genius and ! iell had graved their imperishable \ signs. Beside him danced a short, . . comfortable figure, prosaically ornate, j rosy, wrinkled face, a little light gray ; coat, with steel buttons, saluting to all : sides with offensive friendliness, but always squinting upward full of wor ried timidity at the gloomy form which .stalked, grave and thoughtful, at his side, t _? imagined that he saw that picture of the place where Faust ls walking with Wagner before the thea ter in Leipsic. The deaf painter made comments on tl?e two shapes in his own fantastic way and called my at tention particularly to the measured, broad steps of Paganini. "Is it not so," asked be, "as If he carried the iron bar still between his ankles? He has ac quired for good the habit of walking 'that way. See, too, how contemptuous ly ironical is the glance which he sends down on his companion when he bur dens- him with his prosaic questions. But he cannot rid himself of that com panion. A bloody pact binds him to ;this servant, who is nobody else than satan. The ignorant public, lt Is true, thinks that this companion is Harris, the -writer of comedies and anecdotes, whom Paganini has taken along to manage the finances. The public does not know that the devil merely borrow ed his body from Mr. George Harris and that the poor soul of that poor creature 3s locked up in a chest in Han over with other rubbish to wait till the devil returns its flesh envelope. Prob ably he will accompany his master, j Paganini, in another form through the j ?world then-namely, as a black poo dle." If Paganini seemed fablelike and weird to me In the bright noonday, ; under the gre. a irees of Hamburg's ; Maiden lane, how did his frightfully j bizarre appearance amaze me in the '< evening at the concert! On the stage I there appeared a dark form that seem ed to have risen from the under world. ? That was Paganini in black gala dress, j the black coat and the black waistcoat of a dreadful cut, as perhaps hellish , etiquette prescribes at the court of i Proserpine, the black trousers tim- j idly fluttering around the thin legs, i The long arms seemed even lengthen ed as he held the violin in one hand and in the other the bow, and nearly touched the ground with them while he displayed his nameless bows before | the public. In the angular distortions of his body there was a dreadful wood enness, and also something grotesquely animallike, so that one had a strange desire to laugh; but h's face, which seemed still mop.? cadaverously white in the bright light of the stage, had something so beseeching, so stupidly humble,. that a horrible pity drove away the desire to laugh. Has he learned these motions from an au |>maton or from a dog? Is this beg ging look that of a dying man or lurks there behind it the saturnine humor of a sly miser? Is this a living man who is dying, and who ls to amuse the pub lic In the arena of art like, a dying gmcrmtur, witn ms spasnio?ia ii ments, or is it a dead man, who climbed out of the grave, a vam with the violin, who sucks, if not blood out of our hearts, at all ev the money out of our pockets? Such questions crossed themselv? my head while the master cut his J clous compliments. But all i thoughts had to hush when the i derful master put his violin to his and began to play. With the first, stroke of his bow scenery around and behind him changed. Suddenly, he stood with music stand in a. cheerful room, d rated in merry disorder with twh furniture In the taste of Pompad? everywhere small mirrors, gilded . orettes, Chinese porcelain, a most lightful chaos of ribbons, garla: white gloves, false pearls, diadem.' gilt, such as-one linds in the studi< a prima donna. Paganini's app< ance, too, had changed, and to greatest advantage. He wore si knee breeches of lilac satin, a si] broidered white waistcoat, a coat light blue velvet, with gold butte and the bair, carefully dressed in li curls, plajwd around his face, wh was all young and rosy, and sh with tenderness when he cast glances at the pretty damsel who sb by his side while he played. Truly, at his side I saw. a pre young thing, dressed in the old st: the while satin swelling below hips, the waist charmingly tiny, powdered hair dressed high, the pre round face looking out freely w flashing eyes, finely painted chee beauty plasters and an impertine sweet little nose. In her hand she h a white paper roll, and the motion her lips, as well as the coquett swinging to and fro of her shoulde made it appear that she was singh But no tone was audible, and 01 from the violin play -with which you Paginini accompanied the charm! child could I ascertain wThat she sa and what he himself felt in his st during her singing. Oh, these wt melodies like those fluted forth by t nightingale in the evening dusk, wh the rose's odor makes her expecta spring heart drunken with desire! C that was a melting, sensually dy ir blessedness! These were tones th kissed each other, then fled petulant] then again embraced with laughtc became one and died in drunken unit Yes. the tones indulged in a mer: play, like butterflies when the OJ teasingly avoids the other, hides b hind a flower, is caught at last ai then, light heartedly happy, flutters u ward in the golden sunlight But a spider, a spider sometimes ea bring to such lovesick butterflies sudden bitter fate. Did the your heart forbode such a thing? A me ancholy sighing tone, like a premon tion of a disaster stealthily approacl ing,- glided softly through the most ei trancing melodies that glowed out ( Paginini's violin. His eyes becam moist. Adoring, he vkneels before hi Amata. Alas! As he bends to kiss bc feet, he sees under the bed a littl priest! I know uot what he had again? the poor fellow, but the Genoan bc came pale as death. He seizes the li' tie one with furious hands, boxes Iii ears and kicks him, throws him out c the door, then pulls a long stiletto ou of his pocket and thrusts it into th breast of the young beauty But in this moment there soundei "Bravo! Bravo!" from all sides. Ham burg's enthusiastic men and womel gave their best applause to the grea artist who had just ended the first par of his concert and who was bowing with even more angles and contortion: than before. In his face, it seemed t< me, there whined a humility still mon beseeching than before. In his eye? stared a fearful terror, like that of ? poor sinner. As Paganini began to play anew, i became somber before my eyes. Th( tones did not transform themselves Into bright dolors and shapes. Th( form of the master rather draped itsell in gloomy shadows, from the dark ness of which bis uiusic wailed with most stabbing tones of lament Only sometimes, when a small lamjj that hung above him threw its dim light on bim, could I see his pallid face, in which, however, youth iiad not yet been extinguished. Strange was his costume, split into two colors, of- which, the one was yellow and the other red. On his ankles there weighed heavy chains. Behind him there moved a face whose physiognomy hinted mer rily at that of a goat and long, hairy hands, which, as it seemed, belonged to the face, occasionally reached helping ly into the strings of the violin which Paganini was playing. Sometimes, too, they guided the hand which held the bow, and,a bleating laugh then accom panied the tones that welled ever more painfully and bleeding from the violin. Those were tones like the song of fall en angels who had 'reveled with daugh ters of earth and, bowed with shame, are descending into the underworld. Those were tones in whose abysmal depth neither comfort nor hope glim mered. When the holy ones in heaven hear such tones, then the praise of God dies on their paling lips, and, weeping, they cover their gentle heads. Some times when that goat laugh bleated into the tortures of this playing I could see in the background a horde of little women, who nodded in evil merriment with their ugly heads. "Prom the violin then there rushed sounds of fear and a pitiable moaning and a sobbing as has not been heard on earth before and as never may be heard on earth again unless it be in the valley of Jehosha phat when the colossal trumpets of tho judgment aro wound and the naked corpses crawl from their graves and await their fate Had a string really broken? I do not know. I noticed* only the transfiguration of tho tones, and with them Paganini and his surroundings seemed totally changed again. I could scarcely recog nize him iu the brown monk's habit, wbicli hid him rather than clothed him. Thc wild face, half secreted in the hood, a rope around his hips, barefoot ed, a solitary, d?liant shape. Paganini stood on a rocky promontory by the sea aud played the violin. It was thc time of dusk, the red evening Hooded the wide Hoods of the ocean, wbicli be came ever more ruddy and roared ever more solemnly, in mysterious accord with the strains of the violin. But the I morA-juddy the sea became the more patna became the heaven, and when at last he swelling billows looked all like scar .et blood, the sky above became ghastly pale, corpse white, and great ana mreatening mere came out mc stars, and these stars were black black, like shinging coals. But the tones of the Tiolln became ever more stormy and daring. In the eyes of the dreadful player man gleamed such a mocking lust for destruction, and his thin lips moved so frightfully fast that it seemed as if he were muttering ac cursed words of enchantment of a long dead time, with which one calls the storm and looses the wicked spirits that lie fettered in the chasms of the sea. Sometimes, when he, thrusting his naked arm, gaunt, far out of the flow ing monk's sleeve, swept the air madly with his bow, then he seemed indeed a magician who rules the elements with his wand, and then it howled like mad in the sea depth, and the fear stricken blood waves then sprang so mightily Into the air that they almost flecked the pale canopy of heaven and the black stars with their red foam. It howled, it shrieked, it cracked, as if the world were about to break into ruins, and ever more stubbornly did the monk scrape his violin. He meant, with the might of his raving will, to break the seven seals with which Solo mon had closed the iron pots after be had Imprisoned the conquered demons in them. Those pots had been sunk in the sea by the wise king, and they were the voices of the pent spirits that I heard while Paganini's violin growl ed its angriest bass tones. But at last I thought to hear exultations of libera tion, and from the red blood waves there rose the heads of the unfettered demons-monsters of fabled ugliness, crocodiles with bats' wings, snakes with antlers, sea dogs with patriarchal long beards, green camel heads, all star ing with cold, sagacious eyes and reaching with long fins at the fiddling monk. In his madness his hood had fallen from his face, and the curling hair, blown wildly by the wind, twined, around his head like black serpents. The appearance ..as so crazing that I closed my eyes. Then the whole en chantment vanished, and when I look ed up again I saw the poor Genoan in his customary shape, making bis cus tomary bows, while the public applaud ed without end. Quietly Paganini brought his violin to his chin again, and with the first motion of the bow- the wonderful trans figuration of the tones began once more. But they were not so glaring in color or so decided in outline. The tones unfolded themselves calmly, ma jestically, surging and swelling, like those of an organ in a cathedral, and all the surroundings had expanded wide and high to a space colossal, such as not thc bodily eye, but only the eye of the spirit, can grasp. In the middle of the space floated a flaming sphere, where there stood, gigantic and proud, a man who played the violin. This sphere-was it the sun? I do not know. ? But in the features of the man I recog nized Paganini, ideally beautified, ce lestially purified, lovingly smiling> nis body bloomed in strongest manliness, j a light blue garment inclosed the enno bled limbs, around his shoulder billow ed in shining curls the black hair, j and as bc stood there, firm and sure, 1 an uplifted image of God and played the violiu, it was as though the whole creation barkened to his tones. , He was the mau planet, around whom the universe moved with meas ured solemnity and sounded in celes tial rhythm. Those large lights, which floated around him in such peaceful splendor, were they the stars of heav en? And that sounding harmony that rose from their motions, was it the song of the spheres, of which poets and seers have told such delightful things? Sometimes, wl?cn I strained my sight into the dawning distance, I thought to see all flowing white gar ments, wherein were hidden colossal pilgrims, with white staves in their hands, and, curious, the golden buttons of the staves were the great lights .vhich I had thought were stars. These pilgrims moved in wide circles around the player, ever more shining did thc golden burtons of the staves become from thc tones of his violin, and the choral songs that came from their lips and those I had thought wore the songs of the spheres were really only the dying echoes of that violin. An uu namable holy fervor dwelled in these strains, which sometimes trembled, hardly audible, like secret whispering on the water, again swelled, sweet thrilling, like the hunting horn in the moonlight, and then at last roared on with unbridled delight, as if a thou sand bards were striking the strings of their harps and raising their voices to a song 0/ triumph. These were strains such as the ear never hears, but only the heart can dream when it lies- at j night on the bosom of the beloved.- j New York Press. Lang-nagres Useful to Travelers.

Travelings and Troubles of a Citizen of the Great Metropolis In His At - tempt to Mail a Little Package For Delivery In Nevr York. In this greatest of all cities, London, there is a place called St. Martin's ie Grand, and in St. Martin's le Grand there is an institution which fills Doth sides of the street and. in which every man, woman and child of these blessed islands has more or less of a peculiar interest. It is called the general post office and is presided over by the latest of a long line of illustrious dukes and is really a very great concern indeed. Well, I went there the other day. I did not go on some extraordinary er rand. I did not wish to worry the duke or to disconcert the officials with ques tions as to the rules and regulations. As a matter of fact, I went to post a packet of photographs. Now, it is a remarkable fact that al though I have lived in Loudon for a good many years I had never previous ly posted anything at the general post office. I should not have done so on this occasion but for the tact that the clerk at my local office had got a more than usually acute attack of asininity and could not tell me for the life of him what to do to get my modest pack et of photographs off by that evening's mail to New York. It wanted just five minutes to the closing time for the American mail when I arrived, hot and breathless with my rapid walk, in St. Martin's le Grand. I wanted three things, my par cel weighed, the necessary stamps and information as to where to post iL Now, at most postofiices when you re quire stamps you make your way to a door in the immediate vicinity of the posting slots, where you find the room devoted to their sale. Not so at the London general post office. I approached the nearest door. A red braided official sitting on a sack asked what I wanted. "Stamps." I said. "You'll get them in the building across the street," he answered. Dodging across the street, therefore, at the usual risk of life which attends such a performance in this greatest of all cities, 1 ran into a room and up to a long counter, and. seeing close at hand a notice bearing the legend. "Late fee. foreign parcels." I made for it and ask ed the clerk to kindly "tell me how mucli that would take." He told me to apply half way down the counter. I did so, and, after weighing my packet, another clerk told me it would take a two penny halfpen ny stamp. "And the late fee?" I queried. "Oh. do you want it to go by this mail? Oh, all right. Another halfpen ny." "Where must I post it?" 1 asked. "Outside, across, tho street." he re plied. Glancing at the clock. 1 rushed out and. diving across the thoroughfare, began a careful study of the various posting slots to discover which particu lar oue was for the reception of late fee packets for the foreign mail. I studied in vain, and. catching sight of another red braided official in a corner, I asked him to direct me. After a look at my packet ho said: "Hand it over the counter across the street" With a remark not loud, but deep, I once moje dodged the traffic, charged up tho steps, upsetting two men and a boy on the way, and thrust my parcel over that brass railing which the au thorities with much prudence and fore sight have instituted in these establish ments obviously to protect tho so call ed officials from the righteous fury of au outraged public. "What is it?" asked tho clerk. "I assure you," I replied, "that this is a packet of photographs, tied round with string and directed to New York." "Well, you must post it across the street." he said. Steeling myself to a frightful calm ness, I explained to him that I had al ready been three times across the street over that same packet, but that nevertheless 1 would cheerfully cross it a dozen times if thc regulations of her majesty's service so directed. He seemed hurt a little at my remarks, but finally asked to have a closer look at the packet. At last: "Take it to the other end of the coun ter," he directed, "and ask the man there." 1 did so, and, after answering one or two further assiuine queries as well as my trembling sanity would allow, it was accepted, and so at last 1 succeed ed in posting a packet of photographs to New York.

One long string may be used instead of three by leaving it loose at the top and knotting it where it tightens above and below the waist line, then tying more loosely at the bottom.
