LIVING PICTURES.
The Strftugo Manner in Which
People arc Tattooed.
A Professor of the Art of Deco
rating Human Bodies With
Curious Designs.
, June 13 ,
Stephen Leo is u rosy-cceeked ,
keen-eyed little ninn who bustles
about sailors' lodging-liousos along
the wharves and rjenur.illy leaves a
mark behind him in the form of a
bright-colored , tntoo on the brawny
arm or chest of some sea-faring man.
Sometimes Iheso ilesiKns arc KO clabor-
rate in thuir excctiliipii and the ( tea-
man's timu BO limilod tliat the tatoocr
works all through the night and fol
lows the man to his ship the next
day , putting on the finishing touches
when the vessel is drojpiiiK down the
river. His favorite lesort , however ,
is a little shop on Front street below
Christian , wliero Huamen , and me
chanics , and Knights Templar , and
now and then a woman go to bo
tattooed , while u rabbitif ( curious
spectators clamor at the door for a
sight of the operation.
"When did you welllo here * "
Press reporter asked yesterday.
"After the war. J began tattooing
twenty years ago and have done little
else ever since , Soldiers lying in the
hospital used to have the name and
date of the battle in which they were
wounded tattooed on thuir arm. A
woman whose husband was a zounvu
had the picture of /.on.ivo picked in
rod and blue on her shoulder and
then followed the army till the end of
the war. 1 have never done any
women since then , although they
sometimes come hero. If 1 tattooed
: them they would want it elF the next
day and I should have to tell them
that it never would como oil' . "
"There is then no way of removing
it ? "
"No. Some miy that human milk
will take it elf , but that is not truu. "
"Are most of your customers sea
men ? "
"Oh , No. A good many Knights
Templar have the Masonic sign of
their lodge put _ on their arm ; doctors
nnd mechanics come.too , but they sel
dom want anything on thuir bodies.
YOB , I do a good deal on some men.
There is onu common seamanaSwcdu ,
who has stayed hero every night ho
has been in port for moro than a year.
I have put twogoddesscs and coats-of-
arms on his chest , a mermaid on his
side , thrown in several birds here and
there , and when ho comes back with
"Tho Sailors' Return and the Flag of
Nations. "
( ! oiiissiw : you 81.
" 1 have made nearly u hundred
original designs ( hero thu tatlooorpull-
cd from his pocket several Icather-cov-
urcd books filled with drawings ) , and
the customer always chooses for him
self. Sailors take an anchor and rope-
coil where only ouu figure is desired ,
but mechanics usually ask for a god-
doss. I charge from § 1 to ! ? ! J for put
ting them on , and an ordinary design
taken about an hour's time. No , the
operation is not painful. T take a
Hinall stick , just like this , with a bunch
of sewing needles tied to the end.
There it is give mo your arm only
n pricking sensation , sometimes it
bleeds a little , and then I prick hard
er , HO ( the reporter's arm was hold by
the little man like a vice ) , because the
blood carries the ink away with it.
Hero are two colors in a saucur at my
elbow , nnd 1 dip the needle points in
from time to time and go on in this
way what's the matter ? it'won'tloavo
any mark on you now following with
the nedlo points the figure 1 have
drawn on the ilesh with a soft lead
pencil. Imported Temple super ink
and Chinese vermillion are the only
colors 1 use. The India jnk comes in
dark blue sticks as long as your linger
like licorice , and costs § 2.50.
"You have tattooed some mysteriom
characters , 1 presume ?
"Yes , a good many who have curi
ous things put on their bodies am
liavo very little to say about it. A
line gentleman came hero one 6ven
ing not long ago and asked in a few
words if 1 would tattoo him thai
night. 1 asked him what ho wnntur
put on , and ho said : 'I will show you
if your are ready to begin now.1 II
throw off hia coat , bared his arm ami
I tattooed there a broken cross ,
bleeding heart pierced with a knife ,
and unuur it HOIIIO writing was in ci
phor. IIu never spoke during tin
operation and I have never noon him
nince. IIu paid mo at the door ant
drove away. The body of a mai :
drowned in the Uulowaro about a yoai
was not at first indentifled. Surgean
Hayre Hunt for mo to look at a tattoi
on the dead man's arm. I at onci
recognized it as my work and happen
ud to remember the innn. His wifi
was sent for and at once indontifiud
the body. The tattoo was Faith
Hope and Charity. "
' 'Havo you any experience with cir
cua men ? "
THK AUHTUALUN TATTOOKD MAN.
"Oh , yea ; thu Australian ( at too oil
man , who has been traveling with the
Foropaugh show , was tiiiUhud in this
hop. Ilia name in Harry Do Cursoy ,
nnd ho was ajuweler's clerk , My part-
ney , Ilildorbrandt of New York , found
him , and wo were pushed to have him
. done in time for the opening of the
circus Buason. I worked four months
on hia body and logs. The Washiug.
ton monument in Italtimoro in tattoo-
ud on his breast , besides several flags
and cannon , u roaring lion , and a
broken dagger. Vines creek up from
under bin arms , while on bin back
there ia a frigate in action , two rising
minx , three goddesses , and the Bailor's
return. Dancing ballet girls ornament
his logs , Thu work took four months
und coat him about 8100 , but ho
makeu § 10 per wouk its u showman ,
beaidca expenses , and us a clerk he
Kot $10 or ? lfi , DoCursoy first exhibited -
hibitod in this city last April. Hu.vorul
howmen wanted him , and onu of
them came running to mo on Sunday
night to know how much it would
cost to tattoo another man in thu
BUIIIO wuv The arrangements wen
i'liia second man was Fret !
Taylor , a brass finisher , l > ut I Imvi
not yet iiniohed him. "
' ' 1)0 ) you believe , then , that Bar
I mini's Captain Costontenus is i
fraud ? " .
"Costentonuij.rei > llpd { ho tattoooi
Lrukly , "is an Italian. One of Bar
nnm'fl agents got him years ago , and
ho was sent t < > Itanium at the show
man's expense. The Burmese tattooed
him. 1 know bi-causo 1 know their
work ; but it was not done as a pun
ishtneiit , and CosttMiteniis is as much
n ( Jreek as you aro. 1 remember ono
day a sallow-faced California ! ! found
mo in the Sailors' Home at Ixunbard
and Front streets. Mo carried the
worst piece of tattooing 1 ever saw
and told a qiicor story about it. Ho
had been running , ho said , on the
Klamath river and Upper California.
Onu day ho fell in with a band of Kla
math Indians , who gave him .lames-
town weeds to smoke. This brought
on a heavy sleep and when ho woke
he found himself alone in the moim
tains , like Uip Van Winkle , and tat
toocd wjth two half moons , which
curled outward from the corners of his
mouth and covered his cheeks , the
points of the ellipses mooting on the
bridge of his nose. "
"Doyou believe the story ? "
"No. Most likely the California ! ! ,
who called himself I'owull , had stood
before thu glass and tattooed himself.
Such cases are common and are usual
ly very badly done 1 finished the
moons for him and put on four or livu
stars in vennillion on his chin nnd
forehead , then ho went back to Cali
fornia. "
"Your business must bo | iiito pro
fitable.
"Well , 1 don't make as much as I
might , not ( [ into as much , in fact , as
the tattooer to the uinporor of China ,
who guts S700 for every purformancu.
but 1 have made 8-10 in onu day , and
the business is good enough for me. "

Miss Baiton related an interview
film had recently had with Secretary
Line In. " 1 wished to uee him bo-
causu ho was Abraham Lincoln's son , "
uho said , slowly and softly , "mid 1
went U ) liia ollicu dusk , handing him
my caul us I approached him. ' 1 havu
no favor to ask of you , Mr. Secretary,1
I said , whun ho had risen and thu con
versation had opened , 'except that
you will take from mo a litlu { burden
1 luivo carried about with mo fornmnj
years. 1 knew President Lincoln
well. Ho was good and kind
fill to mo in whatever I tried
to do for niir soldiers. Ho recognized
and cared for the little- things I have
succeeded in doing ; and when there
came nno great undertaking ( referring
to her making a record of the miss
ing ) , so great as to appall n woman
with its nccming impossibility , yet
which thconlroatiosof many survivors
forced me to attempt ; when other
nflicials said , ' It cannot bo done , ' he ,
the head and heart of it all , said , ' 1
will help you. ' And he smoothed my
way , and made it nil possible and
plain. When the task was ended ,
and I came back to Washington fuel
ing deeply the obligation I owed to
him , ho was not hero to receive my
grateful thanks. Ho had gene be
yond all that. It was a Had little
bunion to carry around with me unuttered -
uttered and unshared , but 1 have
carried it. At homo and beyond the
wen , wherever 1 have been , it has gone
with mo ; and I have come to-day to
ask you , as his repivsontativu , to
accept that burden of thanks for him.
"J felt my le.-frs flowing before I
had finished , und was ashamed that 1
had failed lo control them , but when
1 glanced up nt the secretary 1 aw ho
was weeping too. Ho leached out
hm hand , and said : T do accept your
tribute of thanks for my father ; '
and thun I came auuy. "
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT.
How A Farmer's DnujjMor About
to Return to Falhorlaml WIIN
Suddenly Induced to Remain
in a HnnbmitTu Land ,
*
Nett York Hmvlil , JIUIP . ! .
Ixn'o at first m'ght M such a larity
that when with
now-a-days one muotn
a genuine case of "get up and git"
with Cupid on the box scat , and
Hymen in the harness , it is worth re
cording. Catharine PfoilFor was on
Friday last thu bride in a hasty mar
riage , which , contrary to the general
rule in such unions , was thu result of
an honorable , old fashioned lovu in
which the traditional tiny smiter of
hearts , with accustomed impuduncc ,
walked right through the portal of a
young inan'a affections without uvor
waiting to knock. Catharine is the
daughter of a German farmer. She
possesses that kind of bounty which
only accompanies robust health ; tall ,
graceful , with robust cheeks , soft oyua
and a smiling mouth. Thu girl's man
ners are simple and in accordnnco with
her rustic education , and there is a
charming absence of all'uction about
her winuli is also a mark of her nativ
ity. For nearly a year shu has lived
at Peoria , 111. , and thui , becoming
tired of life in Hiich a dreary city , de
termined to go to her home in Bavaria.
She bought an order for a passage
across the ocean from the agwit of the
Hamburg line and thun came to New
York city to await the sailing of the
steamer on Thursday. In the fore
noon of that day the girl visited thu
oflicu of thu Hamburg line at No.
01 Broadway , to change her passage
order for a regular ticket. As slio
utood among a throng of frowsy emi
grants , her fresh , girlish beauty was
especially made remarkable by con
trast. While Catherine waited , Mr.
John Kouhler , a German tanner from
Norwich , Conn. , entered the office ,
and , presenting a lettur of introduction
from a prominunt business housu in
that city , began to transact some
banking business. Koublur is a linotype
typo of stalwart Gorman manhood ,
clear eytss , bronzed face , firm tread
and body as straight as an arrow. At
this time ho was a bachelor. Sud
denly his oyus alightud on Catherine.
It was justat a moment when she was
drawing a lock of hair through her
dainty fingers , and looked especially
bewitching.
H1IK LOOKUP AM ) CO.VQUr.ltKI > .
While ho looked their eyes mot nnd
a mutual confusion followed. The
bachelor was caught. Without wait
ing for any intt'odiu-.tion thu pair ad
vanced toward each other and com
menced a conversation to the aston
ishment of thu clerk at thu counter.
Whun the tanner told Catharinu that
her mnilo was so sweet that she must
lave a little angel imprisoned in her
icart ahu coyly blushed and cast bur
lyes down. A moment later and the
mr clerks employed in the ollico were
coring from a convenient screen at
pair , who were now seated cosily
she dumuru and modest und ho urg-
his suit with commundablu ardor
Suddenly the couplu discovered that
hey were being watched , and started
o luavu the room. The clerk 'in
Charge , fearing that some emigrant
windlo was about to bo perpetrated ,
ailed Mr. Koohlor back and iwkeil
him what bubiiu-sn ho had to take
way a young girl who was evidently
atranger to him. " Oh ,
hat's all right , " iiaid vhu
. .inner , laughing until ho showed t
ow of pearly tooth , "Ciitlmrinu and 1
ire going to bo marriud right itwuy. 1
ovu her and she loves mo. Yet
now who I am and that I would not
lo anything wrong. 1 w uld invilt
fou to the woddiug , but wu want _ ti
levotu all our timu to gutting acquain
ed , and guests would bo decidedly it
ho way. " It waa a clear case o
two'a company and three's a crowd.1
The clerk withdrew his objection am
congratulated the pair , who inarchec
ill' arm in arm. On Friday they ro
nrnod to the ollicu. Catharino'n
bird ! im < or was adorned with a heavj
jold wedding ring , of which she
loomed vury pioud. The dork wan
ntroducnd to Mrs Koohler by hei
uisband , who handed back bin wifuV
, icket , Haying , "Shu will not nei'il
his. America is good enough for hoi
low. Whun you gut ready to refund
the money you can addrt'ss it to Mr.
