Christopher Was He Strummed a Mean Guitar "Neath the Moonlit Window ‘ of His Beauteous Lady Love in Old Seville er Columbus, who sailed beyond the blue rim of the world to discover the golden Americas, was something more than a great adventurer, He also was considerable of a she The grizzled old ne ator, painted for centuries asa dour man of gloom and shadows, in reality was a roman- tic stroller who twanged a gui under the sleepymoon of old Castile . of an old-fashioned novel. __ This new light on the old explorer is given by Professor Rudolph Schul- ler, European linguist and ethnologi- cal savant, who came to this coun- . try to examine early American data in the library of Tulane University. The romance of Columbus, hither- to known only to delvers in musty old libraries, is made public by Prof. Schuller, In Old Seville Columbus, burning -with the idea of a new route to the famed spice islands of Asia, was cooling his heels impatiently in old Seville, living on the bounty of King Ferdinand and waiting for Queen Isabella to make that famous call on the pawnbroker that would launch Columbus: on his voyage of discovery. It was Easter week, and Seville » was a city of pageantry, with street processions and flower-bedecked floats brilliant with all the color of the church’s brightest ‘ festival. Columbus mingled nightly in the gay throngs on the streets. One night he was strolling aim- lessly down a side street, dreaming of the strange, perilous journey that lay before him. Suddenly he jumped back, What ‘had been’ thrown at him? A dagger? No. There had been no clash of stecl on the pave- ment. He stooped. It was a rose. | Columbus looked up. A lace man- tilla floated in the dusk on the iron balcony of a house beside him. A woman, hidden in the shadows, laughed softly. She held a fan he- fore her face, Columbus fell in love without even seeing her face. Serenades by Moonlight More nights came—nights when Columbus, in true Spanish style, took guitar and strummed croon- ing love songs beneath the balcony of old Seville. And one night the fan was removed from before the face of the woman above him, and he saw the beautiful Dona Beatriz En- rique of Cordova, smiling down at him. . And then there came a night when the barred door below the balcony swung open. . ... A son was born to Dona Beatriz Enrique, proud lady of Castile, and Christopher Columbus, Italian ad- venturer seeking bis fortune in a strange land. And then Columbus went to Palos and sailed beyond the sunset to everlasting fame. Sometimes great men’s lost in the obscurity of histo: not so in this cise. The Fernando, can be traced to a posi- tion of note. As a youngster he ac- comp nied Columbus on one of his later to the New World—-the strange to tte d only an Then Fernando ec: hood. And finally we find him estab- lishing the world famous library Seville, for centuries one of the cen- ters of European learning. Made Other Discoveries That is the story that Professor Schuller reveals about Columbus. The professor has made other d coveries about the famous old e plorer, too, He has shown, for in- stance, that the schoo! histories are aken when they say that Colum- «i? ews were recruited from jails and almshouses——the offscourings of the water front. On the contrary, he says, they were the pick of Ss sons are Bat World that Columbus, is death, thought was were the crews cr Amundsen and Peary. In the library of Tulane Univer- sity, Prof. Schuller has discovered = facsimile illustration. of the signa- ture and handwriting of Columbus. He has shown that the cost of the first voyage of discovery was $5,000. But nothing that he has leirned sbout Columbus is of more interest than the sotry of the great dis- covergr’s ggeret romance. ls oO | Reasons For Using | | Dakota Maid Flour | —— ee > * WHY WE SHOULD.
