The Apology for the Can-Can.

The can-can question came up in court yes
terday, il a suit brought against the proprie
tor cf the Metropolitan Theater, and the vi
dence takea and the charge Of Recorder
Ha"kett to The Jury are published in or col
nmns There Is question, in our opinion, as
to the character OF the can-caD. 1t is neces-
salily indecent and without indecent ex-
posure could not exist. The ordinary costume
OF the ballet which is intended to display
beauty o. form and grace Of motion is dis
carried II this notorious dance, in which the
! dress submits to the modesty Of society only
to outrage 1t the more effectively
1t WAS invented by a people unriyaled in
the retincments OF vice and has been vulgar
lzei 10y American coarseness We saw that
there is no question about its indecency be
cause 1t Is matter of common knowledge
that the can-ca owes all its unhappy popu.
lar.y to its lascivious gestures, and that 4
decent car-cln if that were possible would
be the tamest and dullest exhibition on the
stage To attempt to Justify it by the s.Black
Crook is Impossible. The ballet known by
that title is liberal in its display of the female
person, but for that precise reason is desti-
tute Of the opportunitis for those lewd reve-
latl ms in which the can can delights
There is nothing obscene in nature OBJ
tcenlty EXISTS in the vague, indefnable realm
between the simplicity Of nature and the Gus
'ollS oi aftihcla1 society, and this is the realm
III which the can-can rules the debatable
ground between the purity of the Venus of
Milo and the silks and rouge of splendid
strumpet. II the apologists for the can-can
desired a respectable precedent or excuse,
they should rather have sought it in the opera
bo"fe, IN which obscenity has been raised to
the dignity OF line art and music has been
degraded to the service of the reyclrv of
ComuS
Recorder Hacket, in his charge 20 the
jury, folcibly made the distinction. which
shows that intrinsically unobiecsionable acts |
may be made odous by their improper dis |
play and there is no stronger Illustration Of
ms argument than the cln-can itself-an en- |
hlbitlon which has been only introduced re- |
Gently to our stage, but has in its brief career
done more to corrupt the standard Of music |
halls tlan any other innovation.
lie warned the Jury that its verdict night |
be regarded a the prevailing sentiment OF our !
community on the subject, and the result OF |
the trial Is important to public morals 1t is
not required however, that the particular
performance in question should be criticised |
Il order to decide the merits of the general |
question. We have only to say that if this
lance was not indecent, DISCUS ing lewd and
that then it was not the can-can.
Dn the o.her hand if it was the can-can, then
he lewdness, indocency immortality and il
egali'y are proved without the necessity Of
ang further argument. v I. HrdlL

Electric Whistles for Loc0motiye>.

The plan has been satisfactorily adopted on
some Of the French railways of having a
stationary electric battery blow the whistles OF
an approaching locomotive, in case the road
Is not clear, without the engineer having to
give any attention to it that is, the obstruc
ton at the depot Starts the steam whistle on
every approaching locomotive, when tie train
is still fsr enough away to slacken speed and
stop.
This system, it appears. has now been ia
successful operation for a year, on one of the
principal railways in France, faithfully in
forming the engineer whether the way is clear
or not. The signal tender turns disk. and
sends an electric current in the direction of
the coming train to bar that is placed be-
tween the rails; when the engine reaches the
spot, metal brush, placed between tie
wheels, sweeps the bar-the current passes to
the engine and, by means of an electric mag

steam whistle, thus making it blow auto matt
