I am an artist, and, though a woman.
have never feared to sketch la lonely
places. One spring morning 1 was In
the country seated before my easel lay
ing on the first light tints of spring
green when a young man, a few years
my senior, emerged from a wood near
by and came toward me. He was
dressed in a crossbar suit, a straw hat
with a brown ribbon and tan shoes. I
mention these details because they are
important to my story. His clothes
were rather the worse for wear, but
there was a refined look about him.
lie approached me, lifted his hat po
litely and asked permission to look
. over my work.
lie first made a few pleasant re
marks about what I had done, then bo

artists, schools, values in snort, sucu
matters as are usually known only to
, artists. I asked him if he were of the
profession, and he replied that he was
not, nor had he ever touched a brush,
rrora art ho began to talk sf literature,
and I was astonished at the variety
and scope of his reading. By this time
he had thrown himself on the grass,
lighted a cigarette (first asking my per

"You certainly can't be in business."
"Oh, no. I would be like a fish in air 1
In business." 1
"Then, will you kindly tell me what
you are':'
He smiled, and, turning on me a pair
rvf hnndsome eves in .which a twiukle
was set in melancholy, he replied:
"I am a pauper aristocrat."
"How would you like to make a
sketch of me?"' he. said abruptly. "I
mean take me for a model. If you will
lend me your shawl and a few bits of
your finery I will pose for you as an
Italian bandit. You may make a sketch
by which to turn an honest penny."
"I prefer you as yonr.stlf," I said, "in
that indolent position." , ;
I sketched for half an hour, then let
him change 'his position for rest, then
worked another half hour.
"Can you give me another sitting to
morrow V" I asked.
"Oh, yes," he replied; "my time is
cot valuable."
He gave me several sittings on differ
ent mornings, then one moniimr when
he had promised to come failed to do
so. This was the lat of him. Ho
passed away from me as though spirit

The portrait was unfinished, though
nearly complete, and I left it as it was.
When I returned to the city late In
the autumn I had not forgotten my
pauper aristocrat I do not approve or
people useless to the world and to
themselves, but this man was so frank,
so engaging, so utterly devoid of pre
tense. He had without leave walked
right into my heart and made himself
lit home.
One day during the winter while
scanning a newspaper I came upon a
personal:
" Information wanted of Reginald Wal
laca Chandler, who was last seen near
Liberty, Sullivan county, N. during
tha previous eprinsr. lie then wore a
crossbar suit, a straw hat with a blue
band and tan shoes. .
My heart stood still.' This wa3 my
pauper aristocrat For what could he
bo wanted? Was it for crime, for re
turn to confinement? I thought over
eVery possible contingency, dreading to
give information of him for fear of
injuring him. At last I took the pic
ture I had made of him and, going to
the address given In the advertisement,
told of my meeting with him.' I was
Informed that his uncle, worth many
millions, had gone down, with his
whole family, in a terrible marine dis
aster that had occurred during the past
summer and Iteginakl Wallace Chan
dler was sole heir at law to the prop-
prtv.
Since I could Tire no miormauuu
of him, a number of photographs were
made of my picture and sent to de
fective bureaus in different cities. The
picture Itself was placed in a window
oa Fifth avenue in w York, and the
dealer directed to send any one mak
ing inquiries about It to me. One
day I was told that a young man
desired to see me in the drawing room.
I went there and found my pauper
aristocrat He wore the suit he had
worn In the summer, though he had
procured a derby hat
"Fardcra me," he said, "for coming
here, and for leaving you so uncere
moniously. I felt that I was drifting
where I had no right to drift. When
I saw that picture in tho window yes

General O. O. Howard of Bell coun
ty, Ivy., who has undertaken to put a
Stop to feuds in Kentucky and has
been riding on horseback through the
feud counties, accompanied by Fred
erick C. Chamberlain of Boston, ridi
cules the Idea of being shot by mis
take while on his tour of investiga
tion, says a special dispatch from Lex
ington to the New York Herald. He
says the feudist seldom makes a mis
take; that when he sights down the
barrel cf his rifle he usually knows
who the gun is pointed at
"There is no danger of any moun
tain man pointing a gun at "Cncle Oll-
of the feud problem, eliminating all
else, is education. Of course, this Is
impossible in many sections of the
state except with time and the ad
vancement of civilization."
General Howard and Mr. Chamber
lain started on their tour a few days
ago, leaving the railroad at Echutaw,
Lee county. It was in the Grant-Lee
Memorial hall of Lincoln Memorial
university, near Cumberland Gap,
Tenn., that General Howard was seen
while attending a meeting of the board
of trustees of that institution.
General Howard Is a firm friend of
the mountain people. He made possi
ble the Lincoln Memorial university,
and his wisdom has been proved by
the score of young men and women
who have been educated and have
gone out from the university into a
life of usefulness. ,
"The advancement, of civilization
and education," said General Howard,
"will, stamp out feuds, but such ad
vancement is, of course, slow to find
its way into the log cabins of the
mountains, and I am going to see if I
cannot help these people out of their
trouble by acting as an advance agent
to education.
"A feud is a sort of vigilance com
mittee such as is known to many sec
tions in the United States. The offi
cers of the law are Inactive and cow
ardly. If a man commits some crime
that deserves punishment they fail,
either from cowardice or laziness, to
bring the offender to justice, and the
persons who felt that they had been In
jured, finding that they have no safe
guard in tho law, resort to assassina
tion, or, taking the law Into their own
hands, they are seized with a desire
to mete out justice without the aid of
the law. j
"Yet there is nothing either north,
west, east or south that Is the parallel
of the Kentucky feuds. Wherever I ;
go I advocate to the people the neces
sity of good roads. The absence of not
only railroads, but of turnpikes, or
even good country roads, is one of the
chief barriers to the advancement of
education in these feud localities.
"While it is true that the recent
feud assassinations in Breathitt county
where 1 learned thirty-seven men
had been slain from ambush within
the last five years-have been most
furious in the town of Jackson, which
is entered by two railroads and situ
ated on a river navigable by small
boats, it is a fact nevertheless that
this feud originated in the most re
mote part of the county, long before
the mountains were traversed by a
railroad and when Jackson was
smaller than Ilandman or Hazard.
Tmvoiiiv throueh these sections of
the country, one is forced to go on
horseback, and fur myself I have al
wavs rode n mule, because he is the
more sure footed beast. By the build
ing of railroads and lnguwajs u
mvinte nre hvoncrht closer together and
the public school system Is made pos
sible." General Howard said he noticed that
the attitude of the people had changed
decidedly within the hi.-t few years,
and he never expected to witness in
Kentucky another feud like the
Freneh-Kvorsolo, the Strong-Amy, the
Hill-Evans or the Baker-Howard.
"The turnpikes, the railroads and
the country Fchool, three agents of
the advance of civilization," said the
general, "are now making' tiieir ap
pearance in all parts of the state. It
is true, the Baker-Howard feud occu
pied the center of the stage in public
notice only three years ago, but since
then ('lav county has been crossed by
several lines of telephone and the
schools have been greatly lmprovcd.-
Speculatnrs In oil and minerals have
planted their machinery on the hill
sides. "The Breathitt county feud is the
climax, readied after years of political
tlrife, and is unlike in character any
of the other feuds in the history of
Kentucky. The spirit of hatred caused
by the civil war between the Strongs
and the A.mya resulted in a long and
bitter feud between their families and
was handed down to the second gen
eration, but I do not believe the pros-
nerous town of Jackson
will know of
a feud save In history
after tin pros-
ent bitter strife ceases.
"I find In my travels unit, me peopu;
are anxious to have peace with theli
neighbors. They want Justice, and if
the courts will punish crime feuds wil'
disappear with the advance of civiliza
tion."
