Modern Dancing.

The New York Jouraat Of Fduca-
ton, purely secular paper, not long
ago said:
"A great deal can he said about
dancing: for instance, the Chief of
Police of New York City says that
three. fourths of the abandoned girls in
this city were ruined by dancing.
Young ladies allow gentlemen priv.
leges which, taken under any other
circumstances, would be considered
improper. 1t requires neither brains
nor good morals TO be good dancer
AS the love of the one increases the
love of the other decreases. How
many of the best men and women are
skillful dancers? In ancient times
the sexes danced separately. Alcohol
is the spirit of beverages, so sex is the
spirit of the dance: take it away and
let the sexes dance separately, and
dancing would go out of fashion very
soon. Parlor dancing is dangerous
Tipping leads 10 drunkenness, and
parloi dancing leads to ungodly balls.
Tipping and parlor dancing SOW to
the wind and both reapth whirlwind.
Put dancing in the crucible, apply the
acids, weigh it, and the verdict Of
reason, morality and religion is
weighed in the balance and found
wanting"

they could drink faster and longer
than Charley could set them up and,
although they were known as indus.
trious and attentive drinkers, Charley
took them up. One was stationed at
the end of the bar and the other two
at separate tables. The floor was
cleared and calling for the drinks
began. AT the first round dispute
arose as to the size of the drinks,
Charley insisting that heel taps were
not fair. The boys argued the point,
but they soon saw that their opponent
was regaining breath during the talk
and concluded to drink fairly. The
experiment of calling for mixed drinks
was tried, but that gave him breathing
time and was abandoned. When they
called for cocktail, Charley would
respond: :s. II
You bet the bumons on your ugly
feet, I'll get it for you"
Numerous devices were tried to tire
him out, but he held 10 the work man
fully, his only fear seeming to be that
the barrel might run dry. aAt'last the
man at the window had recourse to a
trick which, being initiated by tn,
others, won the game and sent Charley
to bed utterly exhausted. When the
bottle was set up for him he said:
"Oh! want gin this time"
After this each would name the tip
pie and then, when served, change the
order, thus making double trir
necessary. The game was thrown up
but had it been fairly played no one
doubts that the active Deacon woult
have been able to hand around thu

The Hawthorne boys have had no
snow with which to pelt Cinnamon,
Indians and other helpless passers.by.
This at first might seem to be one
thing wanting in our natural advan-
tages, but even in this u substitute is
provided, and the boys have a good
time. The numerous straw and rush
coverings of bottles, when filled with
sand make very effective missiles in
the hands of enthusiastic boys, and
many an Indian game of guess is
broken up by shower of sand and
punches of straw. Pitched battles
ensue in which the indians usually
come oft victorious, but all hands have
IL good time and the noble braves seem
to regard the excitement of the contest
as fair equivalent for the anxiety of
gaming, while their ladies look on in
admiration or derision corresponding

Tender or the Track.

On Saturday the tender of one of
the engines which had been used
fighting snow ran off the track about
a mile south of the Summit. The
accident was caused by ice on one of
the rails, and would have amounted to
nothing but for'the fact that curve
began near the place where the rails
were climbed, and in turning this
curve the tender was. thrown on its
side. Several men who were riding on
the tank were thrown into the snow
and all were more or less scratched and
brhized by the wood which went over
with them, but none received any
serious injuries except Spaniard
named Jesus Rivas, who suffered q
dislocation of the collar bone. He
was brought to Hawthorne and placed
under the care of Doctor Moore and
