J .» - Iw PICTORES IN qDEER PLACED : The recent discovery of a valuable Correggio In the mountain home of a Moroccan bandit furnishes the latest example of the romatic vicissitudes oi - Old Masters, many of which arc at * least as strange as fiction. ' If pictures had tongues what curi ous stories of wandering and adven tures some of them couid tell! Take for instance that magnificent picture )of Titian, a canvas 16 feet long and 7 feet high, representing the entomb ment of Christ, which was lost for iventures only to come to light in a ;church in the heart of Mexico;- or ,£hat portrait of Nell Gwynn, by Sir Peter Lely, which was discovered not 'long ago by a doctor in a Birmingham, slum. in' Take, too Raphael's famous "Mas : sacre of the Innocent," which was found, after generations of disappear iance, in the cottage of a poor widow at Como, Italy. Piece by piece it was possible, with much difficulty, to re construct some of tjie history of this treasure of art, and a strange story it is. At one time it belonged to the t celebrated Cardinal Yppolito d'Este, Ariosto's patron, from whose hands eit passed into those of another Cardi nal, Luigi d'Este. At his death a priest of Reggio became its owner for the *" ridiculous sum of a sovereign; and • he, afer refusing thrice this sum for ?it, presented it to the Duke Alfonzo nd'Este, who in 1 turn gave it to the Prin cess Margherita Gonzaga, his niece. «- When the Princess died, the picture passed to the Duke of Urbino, and from that stage of its history nothing more was heard of it until 1658, when the Duke d'Eute employed a Francis can monk to find it at any cost. For five years the monk sought everywhere in vain, and at the end of the time ;he reported to the Duke that, "after having traveled all over Italy on his "Quest and employing every means both spiritual and materrial, he was ' forced to abandon the hopeless task." And now, two and a half centuries later, the long-lost picture has come |hus strangely to light. A few years ago one of Albert Durer's masterpieces was discovered, dust smothered and despised among 4 the lumber in a granary near Cour trai, France. The farmer —a woman — took it into her head one day to clear the granary of its "rubbish," and for a few coppers she was glad to get the son of the local coach painter to re pove it all including the "dirty piece of, painted wood." The painting was cleaned and submitted to an expert, who recognized it as a Durer which had been stolen from the National Museum of Munich many years earlier. i Among some old canvases which were knocked down for the 'equival ent of a few shillings at an auction sale at Rome to Herr Uuntecspergh,! a Tyrolese restorer of old pictures, was a very inferior picture of flowers which was practically worthless. The canvas, however, attracted the attention of an art connoisseur, who suspected that there might be another painting beneath the surface present ment of flowers, and by skillfully re moving the layers of paint he revealed an exquisite work of Correggio, which he later sold to Lord Bridal'for $7,500.' On the walls of Mr. D. Harris Smith's cottage in Salem, N. J., a valuable Remney, representing the two daughters of William Pitt weeping at their mother's tomb, was discovered quite recently, Mr. Smith had bougnt the canvas (which is valued at $50,000) thirty years ago at the sale of the effects of one John Robotham, an Englishman who was then living at Salem. This Robotham, so the story runs, was the son of a Sussex inn keeper who counted George Romney among his thirsty customers, and who had taken the picture from the great artist in settlement of a twelve months ! drinking bill. t Lord Crewe has among his art treas ures a valuable canvas, of which the following romantic story is told: | Many years ago one of his ancestors had a picture painted of his son and daughter; the former, who was very young, being presented as a Cupid. In later years, when the son had grown to manhood, he quarreled with his father, and, byway of revenge, cut the Cupid out of the canvas. For a fentury nothing was seen- of the por lon of the picture thus removed, when It fell into the hands of a dealer, who restored it to the then head of the house. I A similar mutilation was practiced on a valuable painting, "The Field of the Cloth of Gold," the property of Charles I. When Cromwell negotiat ed with a Continental dealer for the sale of the royal pictures it was found that the head of Henry VIII. was miss ing from this canvas, which thus escap ed the fate of its fellows. When the second Charles came to the throne the missing part was restored byta great nobleman who had adopted this in genious method of preventing the pic ture from going out of the country. i Sitting Bull, Jr., an Umpire.

' Greensnoro, Aug. 24.—An interest r ing and important item of news cur - icnt here this morning was that Congressman Blackburn would de mand a joint discussion with Senator 3 Joe Bailey, of Texas, when he made 5 his speech at . Statesville. In . reply to the suggestion on that _ Fince Mr. Blackburn would not meet ! his opponent Hackett in joint debate, ; was ridiculous to suppose that he I v/ould seek to meet a United States . Senator of Mr. Bailey's ability, a ; Blackburn employe here said that it wasn't at all. The truth was, Hackett was not in Mr. Blackburn's t "class" at all not being a Congress -1 man, and there were certain un i written laws among officials, called r . "ethics," which made it all right for Blackburn to meet his senatorial col [ league, and ignore as beneath his . r.ignity getting on the stump with » jr.st an ordinary opponent for his po -1 sition. "It's not business/' was also volunteered.

It i had never been even submitted for , its consideration. That possibly Mr. Charles Cowles, of. Wilkesboro, chair man of the executive committee of the Eighth District and Mr. Black burn's manager there could give the p «esired information.

It has been jdiscovered that the trou ble 116s in the fact that the servant has been sent to another place by the good darkey friend, who has had his dollar or fifty cents tip, and accom modatingly earned It, and makes five or six dollars a week out of the shrewd negro. knowledge of white' folk's, ways. A gentleman here x who spent six! dollars In as many weeks In such tips for servants to one of his trusted" "old timey negro men friends,"- says that he finally caught on to the racket by losing a cook to a neighbor across the street, ,who had ' tipped the same fellow five times in less than two months.
