His quick ear had caught the sound of mother’• voice, and, after a while, I, too, could hear a hope less moan, a dreadful, heart-broken sound. We found mother kneeling on the floor, her hand leaning on the empty crib, and moaning as one that could not be comforted. The baby was gone. How or where we could not tell—w# never knew.

But, at the age of 4, Mauricio asked his papa to tehoh him to play the violin. This his father did not feel inclined to do. He was himself a violin-player in the theater orchestra, and (eli the life of an ordinary musician an uncertain one and not deursble fur h* eon; but the child never gave up the idea of being a vio linist, and would leave his play at any his father and eagerly wntehbte At laot, in 1872, when the boy wm « eli hte tether emumed to rideo, where he played mmte te to have good with their worth *60,000 cam do I ■elf loved and whom he oomee te contact by the judi cious expenditure at 91,000 te charity than by giving the whole 160,000 after he is dead.
