THE DAINTY MINUET.
IT, is Once Again Becoming the
Dance of Fashionable Society.

A writer in the Berli7eT Borsen-
Courier says that the minuet which
Strauss is about to introduce to the
partial exclusion of his own waltz,
was the first ball dance which had q
really worldwide popularity. 1t is a
slow, digniied dance, an appropriate
product of the time and place of its
birth. 1t is very old. When Don
Juan d'Austria went incognito from
Brussels to Paris, nothing he saw
during his famous trip excited his adj
miration half so much as the grace
with which the beautiful Margaret of
Burgundy danced the minuet. Other
beaux and titled handles OF the same
period also put in writing fiattering
illusions to the beauties of this dance.
Nevertheless, it is exceedingly doubt
full that the minuet of those times
was the original model of the minuet
of today.
The minuet, which very recently
has appeared in the Paris salons, vas
invented by the French ballet master,
Gardel, or rather was evolved by him
from a much older dance, for the
celebration of the marriage of King
Louis XVI. "Minuet of the Queen"
is the title which the gallant Gardel
gave to the new dance in honor of
Marie Antoinette. The figures of a
dance of the time of Louis XIV. were
utilized by Gardel as the basis of his
new minuet. The old dance, with
which every court ball of Louis XIV.
was opened, consisted mostly therein
that the gentleman and the lady
faced each other, moved a few steps
forward and backward in time with
dignified and sonorous music, bowed
deeply and then returned to their
places. This dance was called the
'sBraule.n 1t was succeeded by the
gavotte, in which .'the gentlemen
kissed the bouquet of flowers, and
with a deep bow handed 1t to his
partner From this gavotte Gardel
derived the minuet. The famous
dancing master, Pecourt, introduced
an important innovation by changing
the s figure into the q figure, which is
still danced. The minuet is the only
dance which preserves the courtly
dignity of the old regime, and there
fore has ever been regarded as the
most aristocratic of dances. The most
popular of minuet music is from the
first final of Mozart's Don Juan"
This music is the model of all other
music to which the minuet has been
danced of late wears,

Mayor Cleveland to Worklngmen.
Mayor Clsveland's address to the
workingmen OF Paterson last evening
was in line with the principles which
he has preached for many years.
He advocated Improvement in
the condition of the labor
ing section of the community
through affording its members
opportunity for self culture and self
advancement. He told how, when he
was a young man, workers were re-
belling against fourteen hours daily
toll. Later he witnessed the fight for
a reduction of labor from twelve to
ten hours.
In both these struggles MI. Cleve
land took a war interest and an
active part, just as he is taking a
warm interest and an active part in
the effort now in progress to make
eight hours q full days work. He
speaks in his address of possible
criticism Of his attitude on this ques-
ton. He need not fear it. He is on
the right side, and he will not only
have the workingmen with him but
also those who take any sort of broad
guage views Of the questions Of the
day.
BY being no longer overworked, the
working man will be able to develop
his physical and mental being to its
highest possibilities. He will be a
better workman, a faster and better
producer. He will turn out more pro-
ducts OF labor, and what he turns out
will be Of a higher grade. Thus he
will not be the sole gamer by the
change in his condition. His en-
ployer also will profit.
Mayor Cleveland in his long ex-
perience has seen this principal illus
trated. Though his sympathies are
with the workers, it is very certain
that his good sense satisfies him that
no other portion of the community
will lose through their gain.
There are always a few obstructives
whom it takes an age to convince of
the propriety of any change. What
these may say we do not know and
Mr.. Cleveland need not care. He has
the thinking people with him, and in
these days that means nine-tenths OF
all the people.

1t Was Only a Mistake, but 1t Stirred
Up the Hudson Men.
Special to the JERSEY City Netcs.
TRENTON, April 2, 1S90.-A mistake
upon the part Of Senator Martin, chair
man of the Senate Committee on Munich
pal Corporations, caused no small excite
ment among the Hudson county members
yesterday morning. The committee
handed in q report adverse to MI. Nc
Donald's bill increasing the salary of
Deputy City Collector Miles MeCartin 10
81 $500, and that of the chief clerk to 81, 800.
When this became known everyone inter
ested picked up his ears.
1t was known that the bill had passed
the Senate and gone over to the House,
where it had been 9mended SO that 1t
read:-'That the salary of the deputy
city collector in cities of the first class
shall not exceed twenty-five hundred dol
lars per annum, and the salary of the
chief clerk co the city collector in such
cities shall not exceed eighteen hundred
dollars per annum, subject to approval by
concurrence of a majority of the board
having charge and control of tine finances
of and in such cities" 1t had thus passed
a second reading.
about to see what the difficulty was. 1t
seemed very odd, to say the least, that
the committee should report adversely a
bill which the Senate had once passed.
The explanation was soon found. The
original bill contained a clause which
provided that the increase should be pro
vided for by temporary loan bonds. This
was stricken out and the bill SO amended
that it was resolved to have q reprint. 1t
was the reprint which was passed and
sent over to the House. Senator Martin
came across an old copy of the original
bill and that is what vas reported adj
versely.
The same committee, however, re-
which there was no mistake. It was the
bill which authorized the Board of FL
nance to appoint clerks and assistant
clerks at such salaries as the Board may
agree upOn.
