THE PUPPET-SHOW.

reuident in

New York, and writing ttomewhut for the press, I w«« waited 011 ono evening lay a enHow. hollow-cheeked, dark-eyed, dark-haired roan, in a thread-bare garment, who glided out of the pennmorn of my dim room into the ftill rays of the cuiidie. like a midnight phantom. The figure bowed, and handed me a card on which ww printed, inewpitnl letters, "Zflionasek."

I glanced from the card to my visitor. His deop*Ml eye# were fliced upon me wintftilly. i| •••.••• "vVill ydft"lAke a seat Mr. "Enioncjsek.

I felt a cold, clammy hand grasp mine, and was led, with many a gentle caution, up a Bight of atena, through a doorway, and into a hall of tolerable ttix«, furnished witli benrh«^ aa 1 perceived by the dull, red,«l«e of ftn old cast-iron i»tove.

Everything»was in the same condition. as when I llrfct ihtrohiced it to the reader. The anthracite was burning in the glowing stove the" green curtain WOK down. The artist disappeared before the curtain went up, and the-perform-a nee went efff to the spplause of one spectator. The curtain fell. Some time afterwartl Zaioncxek appeared, gtoomy, but resolute, wltli^a large basket on.his artn. He then lifted the cover from his stove. *1 "Her^H siiid he, taking from the. mixed coutents of the ba&et a ntusi* cal box. "is my orchestra. -It will ntfver •nore play the overture to TSTorma.'"
