WHISTLER TALES.
Some Amusing Peculiarities of the
Eccentric Artist.
There was a steady stream of credi
tors at the King street studio in those
days, says a writer in the Century.
Whistler made no effort to conceal the
fact that he was deeply in debt. One
day as we were busily and silently
working there came a loud business
like rap at the door. Whistler listened
attentively.
“Psst!” said he. “That’s one and
ten.”
Within half an hour there was an
other rap, not quite so loud.
“Two ard six,” said Whistler.
“Psst!”
“What on earth do you mean?” I
asked after a time.
“One pound ten shilling; two
pounds six shillings. Vulgar trades
men with their bills, colonel. They
want payment. Ah, well!” he sighed
with an exaggerated air of sadness
and returned to his canvas.
Then came another knock, a most
gentle, insinuating rap.
“Dear me,” said Whistler, “that must
be all of twenty! Poor fellow, I really
must do something for him! So sorry
I’m not in.”
I could not take the situation so
placidly and seized eagerly the first
opportunity of financial aid that pre
sented itself. A rich American, so
journing in London, asked me what
he could purchase and take back with
him in the way of art.
“By all means get a set of Whistler’s
etchings. Unquestionably he will
make for you a selection. I’ll speak to
him.” I told him, and hurried back
with the good-news.
Whistler was delighted, and for a
day worked busily, overhauling and
sorting his proofs. The selection was
a splendid one and called for a sub
stantial payment. It was arranged
that Whistler should meet the pur
chaser at a bank in Queen street the
following morning and receive his
check.
Most men under the circumstances
would have thought of little else, but
by the next morning Whistler had
wholly forgotten his engagement. He
had begun a new canvas, and was
completely absorbed in it. For a while
I expostulated in vain.
“Come, Whistler,” I said finally, “you
have been away from America so long
that you don’t appreciate the value of
time to the traveler, particularly the
American traveler. You must not keep
the man waiting.”
“Very well,” said he, laying down his
brush, with a sigh. “Now we’ll go.”
“Why we?” I replied. “I don’t want
to go,” I protested firmly. To tell the
truth, I was looking forward with a
great deal of comfort to a morning all
to myself.
“Oh, but you must,” he said calmly,
bringing my coat and hat, and present
ly we stood in front of the house sig
naling a cab.
One came up readily enough, but,
after one scrutinizing look upon the
cabby’s part, drove swiftly by; an
other went through the same strange
proceedings. I looked questioningly at
Whistler —this odd circumstance had
happened before we were together—
