PAINTED THE HOLY PLACES
How Resourceful Pasha Aided Artist
to Get Pictures in. Pales
*. .tine. ...
Few painters have had more re
markable experiences than Carl Haag,
the veteran water color artist, who has
Just celebrated his ninetieth birth
day. Making orinetal subjects his
Bpecial "line," he has traveled all over
the east in pursuit of local color and
raw material, sometimes running no
inconsiderable risk In doing so.
This was particularly the case dur
ing his travels In Palestine, when
even the firman which he possessed,
from the sultan, permitting him to
make sketches ol the holy places,
hardly availed to protect him at times
from native superstition and fanati
cism.
Mr. Haag even penetrated into the
temple area at Jerusalem, where a
Christian usually^,
ventures only at the
peril of his life. The pasha In charge
of Mr. Haag was, however, a man of
resource, and secured hls° protection
by giving it out that he had been,
ordered by the sultan to make draw
ings of the mosque, and, further, that
those' who did not wish to be Included^
In the picture must keep out of sight,
with the result that Mr. Haag was left
quite unmolested by the superstitious
Moslems.

"What pawt have you-aw-werserved:

"Why, really, Mr. Sapleigh," she re

you, and all the parts have been as
signed. O, by the way, there is still

think that would about fit you."
"The pawt 1b weally of little-aw-con
sequence, doncher know. Just so I'm
one of .the-aw-actahs," said Sapleigh.
"What ant, I-aw-supposed to do In the
pawtr1!
"Well," answered the fair manager,,
"as the heroine is supposed to be an
orphan, It will, be up to you to remain.
