a president OF the Royal Academy, which
20 Americans may seem to be out OF

man. for instance. are not Of so mucn
iuportance as his standing at court. IL
he should happen to merit the disappro-
bation OF the Queen or Of any OF her

AN OPEN QUESTION.
There was not the excitement over the
rev presidency when leighton died that
there is to-day. as il was then generally
accepted on all sides that Millais was
entitled 10 the place. But now 1t Is quite
a different matter. There are at least
half a dozen artists Of the frst rank
who are regarded by themselves anu
their respective followers as candidates
for the high honor. But the objections
against one and al OF them are numer-
Dus.
In, the first place the president must
not only be a commanding figure In art
circles and favorite with the Queen
but he must be a social power. lie must
be familiar with the intricacies OF the
hest society. to gracefully dispense tho
hospltaliues OF the Academiclans. More
over. he must be a man OF wealth and
able TO entertain on an elaborate scale.
He must be conservative in his artistic
feelings. and jealousy guard against the
admission OF radical innovations. Eccen-
trio characters like Whistler, no matter
how great their merit must be frowned
upon. otherwise IT would be regarded as
1eopardizing the whole august structure
OF the academy.

Charles Dickens. His pictures show con-

artists regard him with much favor. al
