whistler and Lady Eden.s picture.

PARIS, Dec. FLAMES Mcneil Whistler,
the painter has been sustained in his appeal
from a judicial decision ordering him to re-
turn to Sir William Eden portrait:of Lady
Eden which he had painted, and to pay
Sir William $1,000 damages.
The portrait of Lady Eden in dispute was
painted in 1894 and was exhibited in the
salon of the Champs de Mars. In payment
for the picture Sir William sent the painter
check for a sum which the latter thought
was far below the value of his work. In
pique Whistler not only refused to deliver
the portrait, but painted in another head
in place of that of Lady Eden. Sir William
brought suit for damages and to compel the
delivery of the work. His lawyer produced
III court a letter from Whistler, apparently
accepting $500 or $3.50 for the picture but the
plaintiff contended that the letter was
merely an ironical protest against the al
legged attempt of Sir William to beat down
the original price of 81 700.

Sloan viii Not Ride for the Prince.

LONDON, Dec. 2.--Gaines, the manager
of Tod Sloan, the American jockey, says
there is no truth in the statement made
by the st. James Gazette yesterday after
noon, that Sloan has contracted to ride
for the Prince of Wales and Mr. Pierre
Lorillard. The manager said: 'Sloan has
not received an offer from the Prince of
Wales, nor has he even met the Prince. He
highly appreciated the compliment the
Prince of Wales paid him in allowing him
to ride one of his horses, which was an I'M
usual one considering that he was an un-
known American when he came to England
and without backing. 1t is not probable
that Sloan will ride in England in 1898 ow-
ing TO his American engagements"
These American engagements, continued
Manager Gaines, bound Sloan to ride four
times weekly on the metropolitan tracks
from May to Nov. g. Sloan, Mr.. Gaines
continued, has had one very fine offer to
ride in England and he would be glad to
ride here If he could arrange to do so.
