. THF EGG DANCE IN INDIA.

A much more pleasing performance,
and one which might perhaps better have
been mentioned in connection with the ex-
plots of the jugglers, is the "egg dance"
This is not, as one might expect from the
name given it, dance upon the fragile
objects. 1t is executed in this wise: The
dancer. dressed in corsage and very
short skirt, carries willow whee of mod
crate diameter fastened horizontally upon
the top of her head. Around this wheel
threads are fastened, equally distant from
each other, and at the end Of each of these
threads is slip moose, which is kept open
by glass bead. Thus equipped, the
young girl comes toward the spectators
with basket full of eggs, which she passes
around for inspection to prove that they
are real. and not limitations. The music
strikes up jerky, monotonous strain, and
the dancer begins to whrl around with
great rapidity. Then seizing an egg. she
puts it in one of the slip nooses, and, with
quick motion, throws it from her in such
a way as to draw the knot tight. The
trfugal force which stretches the thread
out straight like ray shooting from the
circumference of the circle. One after
"hOlhOi lIC CSoS arc tHiOW Out III tutSC
slip nooses until they make horizontal
aureole or halo about the dancers head.
Then the dance becomes still more rapid,
so rapid in fact that it is difficult to distin-
guish the features Of the girl; the mo-
ment is critical; the least false step, the
least irregularty in time, and the eggs
dash against each other. But how can
the dance be stopped? There is but one
way,-that is, to remove the eggs in the
way in which they have been put in place.
This operation is by far the more delicate
ofthe two. tits necessary that the dancer
by single motion. exact and unerring,
should take hold Of the egg. and remove
it from the moose. A single false motion
OF the hand, the least interference with
one of the threads, and the general ar
rangement is suddenly broken, and the
whole performance disastrously ended.
AT last all the eggs are successfully re-
moved; the dancer suddenly stops, and
without seeming in the least dizzied by
this dance of twenty-five or thirty minutes
she advances TO the spectators with firm
step. and presents them the eggs, which
are Immediately broken in fiat dish to
prove that there is no trick about the per-
tormance .-Scribner for November.

The Grasshopper Plague in Missouri.

ST. LOUIS, May IT,
PROF. RILEY, the State Entom ologist,
says that the ravages in Western Mis-
souri, are indeed alarming. He explains
that the young hoppers will not be ready
to take the wing until the 18th of June.
For a whole month the farmers OF Mis-
souri, will have to stand the scourge.
The only approximate relief that can be
gained is through the war of extermina-
ton, and farmers all over the State are
called on to fight them with rollers,
ditching, burning, drowning and con-
tinued plowing. The professor recon-
mends to the State authorities to offer re-
wards for the destruction of the grass
hoppers by the quantity. About the
route of the swarms after becoming full
winged there are the most contradictory
opinions. The most probable and popu-
lar belief is that they will move west
ward, northward, and, to some extent,
eastward from this State. - NJ
A large firm of Wholesale grocers to-
day received by express from the west
ern part of the State box, which, upon
being opened, was found to be complete
ly full of grasshoppers, Accompanying
the package was aletter from q heavy
debtor, who said unless the hoppers were
received in liquidation of his account he
saw no way Of ever paying his indebted
ness, % these were all there was left. OF
