Lady Baltimore by Wister, Owen Page 1 LADY BALTIMORE BY OWEN WISTER To S. Weir Mitchell With the Affection and Memories of All My Life To the Reader You know the great text in Burns, I am sure, where he wishes he could see himself as others see him. Well, here lies the hitch in many a work of art: if its makerpoet, painter, or novelistcould but have become its audience too, for a single day, before he launched it irrevocably upon the uncertain ocean of publicity, how much better his boat would often sail! How many little touches to the rigging he would give, how many little drops of oil to the engines here and there, the need of which he had never suspected, but for that trial trip! That's where the ship-builders and dramatists have the advantage over us others: they can dock their productions and tinker at them. Even to the musician comes this useful chance, and Schumann can reform the proclamation which opens his B-flat Symphony. Still, to publish a story in weekly numbers previously to its appearance as a book does sometimes give to the watchful author an opportunity to learn, before it is too late, where he has failed in clearness; and it brings him also, through the mails, some few questions that are pleasant and proper to answer when his story sets forth united upon its journey of adventure among gentle readers. How came my hero by his name?

Gary Cooper made the words famous, but legend has it that Owen Wister actually heard those words spoken by Medicine Bow, Wyoming's deputy sheriff (in response to another poker player who called him an "S.O.B."). In Wister's best known book, The Virginian, Horseman of the Plains , the lead-up is the same: The Virginian's pistol came out, and his hand lay on the table, holding it unaimed. And with a voice as gentle as ever, the voice that sounded almost like a caress, but drawling a very little more than usual, so that there was almost a space between each word, he issued his orders to the man Trampas: "When you call me that, smile!" And he looked at Trampas across the table. Yes, the voice was gentle. But in my ears it seemed as if somewhere the bell of death was ringing; and silence, like a stroke, fell on the large room.

Books There's more to author than 'The Virginian' Sunday, April 07, 2002 By Bob Hoover , Post-Gazette Book Editor One of the most popular Western novels was written by a Philadelphia aristocrat who numbered Henry James and Theodore Roosevelt among his friends. He was Owen Wister. His novel "The Virginian" marks its 100th birthday this month. The book spawned a Broadway play and five film versions. The first was a silent movie by Cecil B. DeMille; the most recent was a made-for-TV version directed by its star, Bill Pullman. "When you call me that, smile," said the taciturn title character after a nasty insult, uttering one of the classic lines of cowboy lore. The first sound version, shot in 1929, starred Gary Cooper as the Virginian, establishing Cooper as the strong, silent type he played in many films. But "The Virginian" isn't Wister's best work, says James Butler, the Wilkinsburg native who happened upon the manuscript of "Romney," Wister's unfinished novel of Philadelphia life.
