TRICKY ART DEALERS.
Astute Partisan Scheme For Booming
\ "New Master"

Astuts Partisan Scheme For Booming
"Nsw Master"
For the booming Of new artist an
astute dealer is necessary. He catches
his artist as young as possible. prefer
ably rs an exhibitor of crazy canvases
Mt the autumn salon of the independ-
ents' exhibition. and commissions MIN
to paint 100 pictures year.
One by one. occasionally In twos ana
threes, at judicious intervals the deal
er sends the pictures to the Hotel
Drouot for sale by public auction
There he has confederates. who raise
the price at each sale. and he buys
them In himself.
After q few months the young ar
lists canvases have certain market
value, and the next step Is taken 10
turn their painter into modern mas
ter. The critics are attacked. One Of
them IS asked to look at some dauD.
and when he cries out with horror the
dealer says:
"What? You don't like it? Take 1t
home with you as favor to me, live
with II six months and them
In due course an art amateur calls
upon the critic and cannot contain his
admiration for the new artists pic
| ture.
"What a masterpiece! The most
modern thing in art have seen Tor a
| long timer he exclaims.
| Doubt begins to invade the critics
| mind. and when one or two more en-
thusiastic amateurs have visited him
he is worked up to writing a column
of panegyric on the new master. The
amateurs are. Of course. sent by the
dealer.
One or two articles and the boom Is
in full swing. Wealthy and simple
minded collectors, remembering how
other painters have been decried in
their early days and how their works
later have commanded fancy prices
rush In.
The new master makes about 10 pei
cent Of the profit and the dealer tho
other 90 per cent. The new master Is
at the mercy Of the dealer. If he
grumbies the dealer floods the auction
rooms with a hundred or so OF ri:
masterpieces and orders his agents no
to bid, the result being that the can
vases sell at rubbish prices. and TIL
boom Is burst.-Gil Bias.

LONDON THEATERS.

pence For . Bill Of the Play.
At the London theaters when the
young woman shows you to seat she
asks If you wish program. If you
do you pay sixpence in the orchestra
or dress circle for program hand
somely printed on fine paper. The
price ranges down through .'thrip
pence" and 'tuppence" as the CALLER
les ascend to penny in the cockloft
The quality Of paper and the general
artistic merit of the program decline
with the price. but exactly the same
information is conveyed for penny
as for sixpence. The fastidious thea
ter goer might prefer to pay a dime for
q neat and simple program rather than
to have q bulky bunch of advertise
ments gratis. as in New York. but
these London programs. although not
so thick as those Of New York. are mol
devoid Of advertisements, This gives
the purchaser the feeling that be is be
ing worked at both ends. A lady re
minds me. however. that Il program in
a New York theater costs her 10 cents.
as the smeary printing rubs off on her
white gloves. the cleaning Of which
costs dime.
The quality of the performance at
the better London theaters certainly
averages no higher than that at SINH
lar theaters in New York. The music
halls are the resort of the great mid
die class. These are great auditori
ums with tier on tier Of galleries. the

The Roman Tribune.

The tribunes in ancient Rome repre-
sented the people in much the same
way that the house of commons does
in England and the house of repre-
sentatives in this country. For long
time the patricians or aristocrats of
Rome had everything their own way.
But when the .plebeians tor as we
would say, the "plain people''D got their
tribune the reckless tyranny of the
patricians ceased. The tribune had
great power. He could veto almost
any act and nullify almost any law
passed by the Romans Liberty among
the Romans dates from the time they
first secured their tribunes.-New York
