Quite a sensational photographic story comes from Madrid A Spanish photographer, having lately shade all the newestry arrangements for taking a smely young damsel, bad-plowed the dark slide in position, and was in the not of draw- ing it out, when, on finally glancing at his Matter," he was horrified to res that she was hold ing the meaxle of a smail revolver to her forehead. "Stop for Heaven's sake!" cried the artist, add- ing rather salihiy, "If you shoot yourself you will utterly ruin my business." La reply the young lady only laughed, and handing the re- volver to the photographer said, "Don't be alarmnd. It isn't loaded, fot. Rec. But I want you to take me holding it to my forehead, so that I can send thu carts to my lover, who ins deserted me, with a letter saying that if he doos not .coms back to me I will really fra off the revolver!" Asemring himself of the fact that the revolver was not loaded, the artist consented to so far aasiak his "sitter" in her proposed Tuto stratagem as to take the desired photograph. w. The sequel is perfectly satisfactory. Some time afterwards the photographic artist had the ples. Th. 3 sure of again taking the same young lady, but this time she was with a gentleman, her com- panion being her once fickle lover, who had re turned to his allegiance a short time after the tragical photograph had boen dispatched to him.
