Lugi's Lady
: In White. By LULU JOHNSON. : Copyrighted, 1908, by Associated 5 Literary Press. Lugi, it is true, was an organ grinder, but be it understood that the fraternity of street musicians, as well as Its lower and middle classes, has it3 aristocracy. Lugi was not one of those swarthy sons of Italy who laboriously drag a street piano over the hot asphalt of the city's byways. Much less did he belong to the lesser lights who, with a wheezy melodeon, huddle in corners and mechanically grind out "In the Sweet By and By" or the "Miserere" from "II Trovatore." The first Lugi scorned, the latter he despised, for was j he not the proprietor of a horse outi fit? Every morning except Sunday he drove into the suburbs, his wagon gay with red and gold, on -which was swung one of the largest and best of I the mechanical pianos. There was a i lad to turn the wheel, and all Lugi had to do was to lead the white mule and collect coins which showered upon the outfit. For Lugi's white teeth flashed beneath a mustache as black and flowing as any that ever graced the Hps of his brigand ancestors, and Lugi's smile made him many friends, even among the householders. As for the servants, many a rural policeman glowered upon him and envied his conquests, for Lugi, in his smart Neapolitan costume, was good to look upon. IIi9 red sash with its gilded stiletto, his ruffled shirt and rakish hat were all in keeping with the swarthy complexion and flashing eyes. To be sure, the stiletto was but a toy, a hilt and scabbard without a blade, In deference to the absurd prejudice of the police, who knew nothing of a more businesslike weapon sheathed in the collar of Lugi's velvet coat, and his clothing had been obtained from a theatrical costumer, but he cut a most romantic and picturesque figure. Sundays, when the law forbade his plying his trade, Lugi sought the Italian quarter in eminently correct American dress. His top hat and yellow gloves were the astonishment of the half naked "bambinos" playing on the dirty sidewalks. Their mothers turned mute in his august presence as he picked his way fastidiously toward the tenement owned by Gaetano Canera. Presently he would emerge, proudly escorting Paulina of the house of Canera, than whom there was no prettier girl in all Little Italy. For more than a year Lugi had wooed Paulina, but her father had insisted that his son-in-law should be a property owner. A year must elapse, figured the thrifty Canera, ere Lugi might hope to wed. And on his part Lugi did not tell them of the good luck that had be fallen him in the winter before, when a servant in one of the great houses offered him tips on the stock market that she had wheedled from the butler. Great coups had been planned over the dinner served by this particular butler, as the rich forget that their servants are human beings, and much valuable information had been dropped. Lugi profited by the tips, but he had not told the Caneras. It was pleasant to spend the Sunday afternoons with Paulina, but, then, too, there was the Lady In White, and because of her Lugi was silent. He told no one of the dreams that burned in his busy brain. None guessed the high hopes that he nursed. But Bince early spring he had hurried the piano cart along his route until he had come to the great house on the hill. Sometimes he found only the gardener spraying the lawn or clipping the plants; then Lugi led away the mule, silent and morose. Oftener there were golden days with a flash of white through the trees, and she came his Lady In White. Tall and fair she was, with eyes more sweetly blue than the summer skies of his beloved Italy and hair that shone like burnished gold. She leaned across the hedge and questioned him as to his life, and Lugi told her all and more, for to hold her interest he drew upon a vivid Imagination for a vendetta and an earlier career as a brigand. He loved to see her eyes grow round with wonder at his adventures, and, like a modern Othello, he wooed her with his tales. As the summer pro gressed he saw her more and more' often, and sometimes there was a whole hour during which little Pietro could rest his weary arms and the wheel of the piano moved not. Of course it would not do to let Paulina know of the Lady In White, for Canera had declared that when Lugi had made enough money they would go into business together. Italian fathers had their own ideas of honor too. Once married to Paulina, his piano sold. Lugi would no longer see the obliging serving maid, she of the tips. But if he could swell his fortune to such respectable proportions that he would" be no mean match even for the Lady In White, what might not hap pen? They would go to Italy, where with a few hundred lire he could purchase a patent of nobility and live happy ever after. So he spent his Sundays discreetly with Paulina and bewailed the hard luck that made the dollars so scarce. Never did he tell her ef the Lady In
"White nor of the maid to whom he had to make eloquent love in order that he might coax from her the tips that were to win the wife of his dreams. Summer was well advanced when Lugi's devotion to the girl bore fruit At a dinner party a raid was planned on certain stocks, and as usual the move was discussed with perfect freedom before the butler, Lugi got the news, and a few days later his fortune had doubled Itself. Delirio'us with 305', Lugi led the mule over the accustomed route, but to his dismay the Lady In White did not come flitting through the trces to listen to the tales of adventure when he had gleaned from an old Italian romance after the work of the day was
done. Though Pietro played the cylinder through twice, she did not heed the call, and at last Lugi went on his way, a great new idea surging through his active brain. The day was Saturday. On the morrow he would dress himself In his best and make a call upon the object of his affections. It was a daring plan, but she was worth the venture, so noon found Lugi In the waiting room of the railroad station, shaven and perfumed and in his frock coat and glossy hat looking very unlike the Lugi of the brigand dress. So It happened that the Lady In White passed him without recognition, though she looked straight into his face with the incurious, impersonal glance of her caste. Lugi half started up in his seat to speak, then thought better of it and sank back until she had passed. Then he rose and followed her and her escort to the concourse. They were standing by one of the pillars which supported the huge roof, and Lugi managed to conceal himself behind the other side of the pillar without appearing to do so. From their talk it was evident that the man was the brother of one of her friends and that they had all been on an automobile trip the day before. Now he was escorting her to her bome. "It was a delightful trip." the girl declared "quite pleasant enough to repay me for missing my Italian." "Tour Italian?" repeated the man In puzzled tones. "Didn't Grace tell you?" was the careless response. "He Is an organ grinder but very different from the rest of those sort of people; He dresses like a brigand. He comes almost every day and. It is such fun to hear him talk. I fancy he must have lived a thousand years to have performed all the deeds of valor he recounts. It is perfectly fascinating to listen to him. "It is like a book talking to you, but no book was ever as picturesque as he is In what I suppose you might call his stage clothes, since they are a part of the show. I suppose at home he Is as dirty as the rest and has a wife and a host of children, but he has been such a blessing this summer. I mean to put him in my new book. I really feel ashamed when I realize that I cannot offer him money. ELe won't accept it, so I have to pay him In smiles." "Worth a thousand times as much as any coin in the country," declared the escort gallantly. "I can see that I shall have to purchase a street piano and develop my Imagination." "And be like him!" The scorn in the girl's tones cut like a knife. For a moment Lugi fingered his never absent stiletto. Then he shrugged his shoulders and made his way to the street. That afternoon he took Paulina for a walk, and they stopped at one of the cafes for an ice. Lugi caught up the little brown hand that lay on the table. "I shall have to measure this for a wedding ring," he declared. "This week I made the last of what your father demands. We must be mar ried soon." "And I thought that perhaps you had fallen in love with some American girl," cried Faulina. "You have been so cold lately." "American girls!" echoed Lugi. "Bah! They are as cold as ice. as hard as marble. I love an American I girl never!" Lugi laughed loudly at the thought The sting of disillusionment had done its worlc well. Once more Lugi loved Paulina as he had before he became a dreamer of dreams. Promising Pupil. - Some years ago a well known American pianist gave a concert at which he played a duet for two pianos with a pupil. The pupil, a young man of great talent, had come from a small town, and one of the well to do na tives of the town went to the city for the sole purpose of attending the con cert. On his return he was asked what he thought of the young man's musical achievements. "He's doing as well as anvbody could wish, and he'll do better yet," replied the prosperous townsman, with de cision. "lie played a piece with his teacher that was twenty pages long. He gave the teacher the start by five minutes, and then he clipped in, and they came out at the end nip and tuck, if you'll believe me. Well, sir, when I heard that I made up my mind we needn't worry another mite about how George would succeed. "His teacher's considered the best piano player in this part of the country, and if George could do what he did at that concert It won't be many years before hell beat blm out and out, you can Just rely on that 'Td be willing to bet. If I was a bet ting man. that in two years' time that teacher won't dare to undertake one of those two piano pieces with George unless George gives him a good ten minutes start of him.''
