great popular demonstration in Char

Charles Braalaugh 20 seat IN the

reelected from North Hampton in
March last. Delegates from the Lon

FASHIONS IN DANCING.
The New Capers INDUCED in by New YORK
soeiety.--The Racke, Suppressed

Fashions in dancing, writes a New
York correspondent, present no strik-
ing change since last season. The
American Society of Professors of
Dancing. which had its headquarters
i'm this city, held its annual meeting
last week. and decided To recognize no
new dances. They voted to discard
the racket from their lessons, and
to forbid ii altogether in their acade-
nies. Notwithstanding this action, ]
have seen il INDUCED in at every ball
which | have attended. Its name is a
slang one for the better known redo wa
gallon step, and originated in the fact
that the music in which il was first
used for it was 'The Racquele Waltz
1t is called in various sections the
"Rockaway.r Ii is regarded as too
snowy for modest girls to fling them
selves into and this is why the pro-
fessors have undertaken TO place it UNI
der taboo. The round dances which
strict propriety permits this year are
the plain waltz and the redowa. The
latter may be varied by what is called
the polka Bohemia, a toe-andheel step
that is not theatrical If quietly and
gracefully done. The close hugging,
sometimes zone III ltcI winter Dy coup
les who ought TO have known better, is
now visably relaxed, and altogether /
think that dancing is rather freer from
abuses than before. The square dances
in use at the public halls are the plain
quadrille and the plain Saratoga lam
GERS. In the latter the couples form
parallel lines and dance together, the
figures and movements remaining
similar to those of the ordinary lam
GERS. TheGerman is danced still in
private assemblages, but never at large
balls. A new round dance in some
vogue in parlors is called the Russo,
and partakes of the character of the
galop and mazurka combined. There
is also square dance called the Ma
tional Guard, composed of squares and
circles of a somewhat military charac-
ter. The polo quadrille, with its rapid
all-hands-round, proved too much of II
circus to please women, and has gone
pretty nearly out of fashion. Varita
tons of the polka are frequently seem
and the old fashioned Virginia reel is
extensively revived,

She Kissed Them All.

The Cincinnati Enquirer tells story
OF a young lady receiving n surprise
party. The girls entered first and she
kissed them all but some young men
followed and the hostess, all smiles
and bushes, in the dim, reIip-
ious light, made n mistake. The first
young man that stepped in to surprise
was himself surprised by u warm hug
and n most decided oscilatory salute
square in the middle of his mouth.
With courage bordering on the sub
lime, she did not faint. She saw that
she had made n NATURALIZATION that
was simply awful. Nothing remained
To her but TO rest ever after under the
suspicion of pariiality. or to treat all
the boys alike. She chose the latter
course. II is alleged that the young
men bringing up the rear. rs they saw
how matters We're progressing in front,
hraced themselves up and moved for
ward with an air no painter can ever
do Justice to.

the previous announcement that Gen

A FEARLESS BABY.

Portland (Me.) Argus.
Bessie Colby, living in Fryebnrg daughter
OF Albert Colby, formerly of Portland, will
be three years old on August 9. She is one
of the largest and most fearless children in
the neighborhood weighing over forty
pounds. On Wednesday, June 81, she was
alone. about quarter OF a mile from home,
with her doll and baby carriage, when she
encountered a poisonous adder, four
feet long. Bessie is not as tall as
that herself by considerable; but
she seized the snake and carried it alive to
the house, where her step-mother killed it,
though so frightened that she nearly tainted,
and was iii Tor two days afterward. Several
persons in that vicinity are said to have died
from the bite of this species OF serpent, and
why this mammoth specimen did not bite
the child is a mystery. Bessie says when the
adder tried to bite her she stuck stick down
its throat She is lineal descendant of Isa-
bel, sister of Gen. John Stark, of the Revolu-
ton, and possibly inherits the daring of that

A Child of the Battlefield.

Wheeling Intelligeneer.
Almost every family and individual here
in Martinsburg has some bit of romance
in connection with the late war To- day, at
a musicale to which / was kindly invited, |
met a lady whose talents as q musician and
whose remarkable beauty had attracted my
attention. She possessed that rare type of
prettiness that is wholly Southern. Great
deep blue eyes, the face perfect in every fea-
ture hair rich in its abundance and wonder
full in its tint. This is her story: Twenty
years ago, when the tide OF battle in long
bloody waves swept over the terrible field OF
Manassas, a baby girl was left an orphan on
the battle ground. During the changes OF
the fateful day the home of the blue-eyed
girl was at one time directly between the fire
OF both armies. AS the first shots whistled
above the house the parents started to flee for
a place of refuge. A dozen yards from the
door both were shot down, and the baby, an
orphan without sister or brother, was alone
in the world The battle ragged on, dead and
dying were everywhere, but the baby was I'M

smoke, sadly kissed the earth good night,

watched it through its infantile years, .giving
it an education and world of love, and now

THE DELIGHTFUL CACTUS.
Some Use to Which the Arizona Indians
Put tho Plant.

Put the Plant.
Arizona Correspondence Boston Transcript.
All of the varieties of cacti bear fruit,
which is valued by the Indians for food
They also cook the fieshy leaves of the prickly
pear when Young, which are said to resemble
string beans in flavor The Indians also use
the head of the lnaguey, or century plant, for
food 1t is found everywhere in the Terri
tory and is cultivated for revenue In Mexico.
1t contains q large amount of saccharine mat
ter. The century hypothesis in regard to its
blooming is myth. however, long since ex-
ploded. Instead of requiring hundred
years TO attain maturity and blossom the
plant blossoms in seven years from making
its first appearance.
1t then dies, its mission ended. The leaves,
which are Heshy and stif, with thin edges
covered with thorffs, branch from the root in
long lances, growing to the height of three
or four feet. The center of the plant con-
sists OF large head, something like cab
bage. From this springs a pole, eight to
twelve feet high, which branches near the
top bearing a yellow flower. The Indians
prepare the head for food by roasting in an
oven made of stones sunk in the ground.
We had an opportunity to taste piece of the
maguey SO prepared, and found it delicious,
sweet and nutritious, tasting very much like
old-fashioned homemade molssses candy. If
that was a specimen morsel, the Indians de-
serve no sympathy on the score of their diet
as 1t was really luxury.
The juice of the plant is also converted into
syrup and fermented drink, called Irwin
by the Indians, and the Mexicans disti it,
making an Intoxicating liquor called mescal.
We also tested this liquor burnt, ON an ONE
let, and found it as good as brandy for that
purpose. In its natural state, unburnt, it has
a strong. smoky taste, resembling Scotch
whisky. Many useful articles are made from
the fibre of the maguey, ropes and even pa
per having been manufactured from it.
