PAINTER HERE

Mr.. and Mrs. j. Henry Sharp are
guests at the Alvarado for a few days,
Mr.. Sharp is the most famous OF the
present day artists, especially skilled
in reproducing the red man and his
environments on canvas. This after
noon Mr.. Sharp sat on the veranda of
the hotel, holding in his hand a card
bearing a drawing of the front en-
trance of the Alvarado.
I'VE have hut at Taos, where we
intend to spend about six months a
year in the future" said the artist to
the reporter. Our hut is not COM
pleted as to the front and think that
we, can get something out OF this that
will help us some in the architecture.
| expect to spend more time with the
southern Indians in the future than In
the past, and we are fixing up our
house on the Taos reservation TO live
in. The northern Indians are disap-
pearing faster than the southern In
dians and we have been getting as
much of them as we could before they
are gone. The southern Indians will
be with us for a long time, so lone
that there will be plenty of time for a
generation of painters to work upon
them"
This is not Mr. Sharp's first visit to
Albuquerque. He painted Isleta il
1892. He is now en- route to Laguns
and Acimo, and expects to return here
later, going TO Washington in the fal
TO make an annual display of hi:
