V ? - * A HOWLING SUCCESS. Sjy Th? Pi?? Quidf That Wat Uniqut la Cv."*- Coaxing an Echo. Mr. Howells in his story of early v.. travels In Italy describes an interyrbnng experience and a "unique" > ?uide, both of which he encounPisa. The baptistery stands ' bai 4.?tep from the Campo Santo, ?V. and the guide ushered the party in ^ with the air of one who has held his stroke in reserve until now. I waited until they had looked at I some comparatively trifling sculp tores before he raised his voice and I uttered a melodious species of Im ^owl I . * While we stood in amazement , xae conscious IU C U1 tuc iiv/suv ||augl^i--thrioimd and prolonged it 3reth a variety and sweetness of } ? ;which I could not have dreamed, f? The man poured out in quick succession his musical wails and then ceased, and a choir of heavenly echoes burst forth in response. There was a supernatural beauty in these harmonies of which I despair of giving any true idea. They were of such tender and exalted i rapture that we might well have J l thought them the voices of young ' eyed cherubim singing as they i passed through paradise. They | aeemed a celestial compassion that stooped and soothed and rose again Hfc in*lofty acclaim. ||S We were long silent and then broke forth with cries of admirawhich the marvelous echo 1 made eloquence. W "Did you ever hear such music as J that ?' asked the guide. 'The papal choir does not equal ? it," we answered with one voice. The cicerone was not to be silenced even with such a tribute. K - WW- X BT ne went on: I! _ "Pefhaps, as Americans, yon I; know Moshu Feelmore, the presil> dent? No? Ah, what a fine man! K Well, one day he said to me here, *, 'We have the finest echo in the ^4* world in the hall of congress.' I If. *id nothing, but for answer I | merely howled a little ? thus! f Moahu Fillmore was convinced. I v Said he, .There is no other echo in v the world.' I - "I am unique," pursued the ciceLrone, "for making this echo. But," he added, with a sigh, "it has been my ruin. The English have put me ?in all the guidebooks, and some^J^mes I have to howl twenty times < "vwb^l' fhit -Victor Emmanuel came here I showed him the church, the tower and the Campo Santo. Said the king: Tfuf"?here the f- cicerone gave that sweeping outward motion with both hands by which Italians dismiss a trifling subject. "*Make me the echo!' "I was forced," concluded the cicerone, with a strong sense of in1 jury in his tone, "to howl half an \ hour without ceasing." 11 Legal Notices ?
