The announcement Tint j. McNeii
Whistler is about to revisit this coun ry, his
native land, calls attention anew to this
erratic artist He has long been probably
the most talked Of man in London, attempts
ing as he does to set the fashion in art as
Oscar Wilde did in dress, He is the original
of Bunthorne in Patience. His makeup
and surroundings and utfectations and ego
tism have formed the subject OF more than one
letter written to American newspapers by
London correspondents His suit against
Mr.. Ruskin, who hotly charged HIM with
"hinging pot of paint in the face of the
public is among his recent felicities, and
he wears on his chain the halfpenny awarded
him on that occasion by way of dc images to
his reputation and feelings Pe comes to
America to repeat his Ten o Clocks" His
"Ten O'Clocks" are lectures, and he goes on
the platform to deliver them at 10 Q c ocli ut
night, for eccentricitys sake presumably.
If Whistler comes here let it be hoped that
his 1O o'clock will be changed TO s. We sit
up too late as it is He is original, and his
affectations are the outcome of his original
ity, and if he comes to America people will
make much Of him. especially rs he returns
to his native country with the English trade
mark on him.
