dancing. The wrigglings and swayinss aud
the turningS, the bending backward aud the
bending forward, which were taught to
large classes at Newport this summer. are
not to be lost when it comes to the winters
dances. In the minuet particularly the Del,
sarte system of graceful movement is called
into play. Having taken course OF Del
sarte lessons, and having succeeded In 1ree-

motion. young woman can turn ner heau
in one direction, her shoulders IN anotheT,
her hips in the third and, finging her arms
and her feet to the four winds OF heaVen'
can execute as graceful a fandanSo or as
pretty fling as one would care TO see.
So great is the popularity of this KIND OF
dancing at present that at one OF the most
fashionable academies at Washington the
young women were required to execute
skirt dances upon their last commencement
day.
There were few essays read, just to give
proper tone to the affair. but the real feat
ure of the graduation lay in the pretty
dancing which took place after the monotony
of the regular school programme had been
gone through with.
Eighteen young women prettily gowned,
in white futtering ribbons and gauzy drap-
cries, stood up side by side, aud lifting their
skirts little at the side, began to bend ana
to sway and kick to the music OF popular
band which was stationed behind some
shrubbery. There were darby dances In
troduced, besides combinations OF the dlf-
ferent ones mentioned. And last, but very
far from least the young women gave the
GROWING stroke to the afternoon entertain
ment, and completed their education, oy
treating the audience to real pigeon wing.
Everybody has heard of cutting pigeon
wing, but very few have seen 1T done: Inc
girls had practiced for months on 1t, and

PREVALENCE OF GAMBLING.

A Bold Gambler, 1t Is Said, IL a Great
Man Who Has Gone Wrong.
The article on "The Prevalence of GAM
bling" which is published in the October
number of The Forum. Is one of the clearest
and best explanations of the almost univer-
sal prevalence of gambling that has ap-
peared for many years. 1t is written by Mr..
w. 3. Curtis, editor of the Spirit of the
Times.
1T is safe to say" writes MIR. Curtis,
that there never was time in the history
of the world when gambling was so rife
among all classes of people as at present.
In fact, many legitimate branches If bust
ness arc tinged with the hue of speculation;
those persons who do not bet on horse-TaceS
or In stocks crafty their speculative ten
denciea by dabbling in rural town lots, in
mining shares, and in various other sO-called
business enterprises, the methods of which
are really variations of the methods OF
gambling by the roulette wheel, with twenty
eagle birds instead OF one. The same class
of men who, in the last century, wagered
thousands and hundreds of thousands on
the turn OF card or on the emptying Of
dice-boX, now speculate In the stock, prod
uce or the cotton exchange, and on horse
racing, which is at present the greatest of
all gambling games"
Mr.. Curtis, after citing figures to show the
vast scale on which betting is carried at
horse-races and in lotteries, presents some
interesting views on the moral effect OF this
vice upon those who indulge in 1t persist

How 100000 MAKE A LIVING.
Railway Statistics Which Tell an Interesting
Story.

There are just about $4,000 locomotives In
the United States. One-half Of these are
used in hauling freight trains. 1t is pretty
accurate to sag that tn locomotives in the
United States cost $3.50 900. There are
10000 cars of all kinds. Of which $4,000
are passenger cars, aud the remainder
freight or road-seryice cars.
The passenger-caTs cost about S2J0,000,-
COO, and the freight and other cars about
$500, 100000 so, you see, We have approx
imately 1000, 000,Q00 as the cost of the roll
ing stock of cur railways, sum great
enough to pay the national debt and more.
Now, suppose all these locomotives were
coupled together, and started across the
country in one solid train, how long do you
think it would be asks the stati5tician of
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Three hundred miles. Yes, 300 miles of
locomotives; power enough to pull Jupiter
down to the earth could we only hitch 10
him.
Then add the passenger-cars and we should
have 300 miles more; and if we wanted
huge mixed train, and were to put in all the
box, fat and every other king of freight
cars, our train would be more than 1000
miles long.
The passenge r-cars could carry more than
100000 of people, and upon the freight
cars could be loaded the weight of all the
pyramids OF Egypt and all the State capitois
in the United States.
TO every five miles of railroad in the
United States there is a locomotive. To
every mile of road there are six freight-cars.
| To every five and Il half miles there is
passenger car. Each year a freight engine
hauls 3d. 600 tons Of load; each year pas
senger engine pulls $1,000 passengers.
The railways of the United States employ
1850 persons. nearly all men. 1t is eSti-
mated that the railway interest provides
living for 100000 persons in this country,
or nearly one-twentieth of the whole popu-
lation'n
In thinking Of hallway employees and the
expense Of railway maintenance and opera
ton, one naturally thinks first Of the con-
ductJrs, engineers and brakemen. You will
probably be surprised to learn that the care
Of track requires a greater number of en-
ployes on every railroad than any other de-
partment.
TO every 100 miles OF railway line in this
country there are 460 employees; 112 of
| them are section foremrn and other ira ok
men. Repairs Of rolling stock and renew al
of bridges and buildings are next in num-
Der of employees SO.
Running trains require 81, as follows
Engine drivers, 20; firemen, 81; conductors,
IA :; other trainmen, SO. OF flagmen, switch
men and watchmen there are 81 telegraph
operators and dispatchers, IL; station
agents, 16; other statiOnmen, 3S; general
officers, g. Office clerks, %; and all other
employees, 20. So you see, the men who re-
pair the tracks bridges and rolling stock
comprise nearly one-half of the employees
