Society soon caught on after that as
play, and the next development was the
appearance OF the Countess Russell ana
her sister-in:law. Mrs. Dick Russell, at
a special amateur performance given at
the Royalty theater, LO don, for the
benefit Of the National Life Boat aSsocl-
ton. Both ladies were attired In black
and silver, with white wigs and clinging
drapery. Lady Russell wore her coro-
net on the front of her accordion pleat-
ed dress, and both were attended by the
Messrs. lambert. The performers
were recalled no less than ten times,
and when they finally retired they were
bombalded with huzZas and flowers.

inc a higher plane. The old accordion
Skin. with It's fanlike effect, is going
out even on the stage. The 'serpen-
tine. - with its wealth OF diaphanous
game. could hardly ever become pOpu-
lar in private circles. But a comolna-
ton OF the two is now attracting marx

nish a pretty spectacle in drawing
room. And this is what is now animal
ing many drawinR-rooms, both In Eng
land and on the continent. The popu-
larization OF the new dance In society
began with the children. Miss Eliza
beth Garratt, a pupil Of the great
TagliOni, aud herself teacher OF
dancing of great renown, set the
thing going among the little folks, and
pretty soon society got interested. AT
an 'at home" given some weeks ago at
Oueen's Gate Hall, London, which was
attended by the very best OF London So
cietv. Miss Garrett gave an exhibition
OF the talent OF her little pupils.
The crowd thickened and presently
the question was being asked all over
the hall: 'IS Miss Garrett going TO
dancer" That young lady being very
busy receiving her guests, there seemed
to be some anxious doubt about the mat
ter. But presently the music changed;
the small sylphs slipped away to talk
baby talk in a coy corner, to compare
the patterns Of lace Of their understands

behind the scenes. Then two
Young ladies stepped into the cir
Gle partitioneh of from the rest
of the room by pink silk ribbon and
there and then minuet was danced oy
Miss Garratt and her cousin Miss Mer-
Ger, with which the beaux and bellies OF
a hundred years ago would not have
been able to find fault. The dances OF
the end Of the nineteenth century, the
wild waltz aud the deteriOrated quad
rifle, are suggestive of nothing but reck-
Iessness in the one case and gaucherie
in the other. The revived dances OF
the end OF the eighteenth century are
the poetry OF motion; they are as full
as are "Mendelssohn's Songs
Without Words"

FREEDoM CONDUCTIVE TO BODILY
VIGoR-A writer in Hdrper'S Weekly
saws the Boston Globe, contributes some
very sensible observations on athletics
in various countries, as rejecting the
social and political condition OF the peo-
pie. The more elastic the institutions
of a country the more elastic are the
muscles Of It's people. The freer the
laws the freer the mind, and consequent
ly the freer and more active the body.
Hence athletics especially flourish In
republics and reach their minimum IN
the most despotic countries. Where
inertia is stamped upon the institu-
tions Of country it is reflected upon
the general physique. In years past
England led in athletics. She hardly
leads now. The athletic boom has
grown wonderfully in France since sne
became a republic. II we are the most
physically active nation In the
world it is because we are politically
and mentally so. The one country In
Europe where sports are almost IN
known and athletics despised is Russia.
The average subject Of the Car has al
most a horror for physical exercise, ana
physical inertia is stamped upon the
people everywhere. Germany has grown
but slowly in athletic enthusiasm. The
great surplus OF army athletics seem;
to have spoiled the appetite OF the
people for sports of all kinds so popular
| in England and in this country. The
| best soil for athletics is in countries
where everybody takes hand in gov
eminent, where heavy standing armies
are absent, and where personal dignity
is not crushed under the weight OF ira
ditioual social caste. A free mind In
free body in free nation is the oes
promise and potency of athletic life.

Men know this, and they do not dance
any more. Like their brethren OF the

for them, and those same oil orientaI
methods are slowly taking root IN the

1tories They Toll.

A green young clergyman just Or
dained, was recently settled in small
Western town, and was requested few
days ago 10 make some remarks at the
funeral OF member OF his parish, a
butcher. 1t was painful ordeal for
him, for be was not a good extempor-
antious speaker, and public opinion pre-
vented him from using any notes. He
got along pretty well, however, with his
exordium on death as general neces-
sity, which he had memorized; but
when he began TO touch on the life OF
the deceased he gave indications OF In
creasing nervousness. He was evidently
losing control OF his nouns and verbs.
until at least he made the following
ludicrous break: "Friends and breth-
rem, our departed friend was good
man. We knew him from childhood,
that Is, mean, those who have lived
here did. He butchered In this town
for twenty years and, and, he never
harmed living thing" Only a scrupu-
lous regard for the proprieties kept
some OF the hearers from smiling at the
idea Of butcher who "never harmed a
living thing. "NeD York Tribune.

ONLY a REVIVAL.

Aiter,all it is but a revival Of the
dancing diversions OF the days of Louis
XVI In the heydey OF life at Versailles
and the Trianon that of similar form
of feminine dancing was the rage.
Miss Elizabeth CARAT, who is re-
ierred 10 above, said in a recent inter
view tbet the new dance will soon be-
come all the rage. Step dancing,
as we call it, is easily learned aud moth
ing is so graceful. Girls will soon
dance after dinner party as, formerly,
they gave song. YOu see, the style
of dress that is required for these
dances is almost Identical with the or
binary dinner dress. A dress Swith a
train does beautifully for a minuet, and
the umbrella shaped skirt of this season
is just the right thing for skirtdanc-
ing

tom, and It was announced that the put

ton, and II was announced that the pub
lie honor of funeral procession woul,
be accorded his body. When the pro
gramme for the reception OF the remains
was published, however, the United
States general commanding the district
issued an order prohibiting it. Tue
mayor OF Galveston appealed by tele-
graph to General Sheridan, but he als
refused to allow the programme to oe
carried out. The remains were acco d.
ingly transported through the city to he
depot without any public demonstration,
but not without being followed by a
large number OF sincere mourners. AT
Houston the order was not strictly m
forced, and the people turned oni en-
masse to honor the remains. The b dy
was received in the hall OF the Houst Of
Representatives at Austin by Cover or
Throckmorton, and remained there In
state for several days. The last cGre-
monies were attended with no paraie,
tolling of bells nor sound Of martial
music, but by a quiet procession and
simple sepulture.
The State cemetery covers the crest OF
one OF Austin's hills, that roll back Ike
waves in every direction and command
a full view of the city from the east side.
1t is fit resting place for the body OF
the modest hero here in the bosom OF
his adopted State, by the waters OF tne
Colorado, overlooking the grand Capitol
building and in sight OF the home for
disabled soldiers OF the cause for which
he gave his LIES blood.

thing yet attempted in England or
America. Accompanying it the French
artistic Introduces a new form Of skirt
dance, which is very fetching. At the
initial presentation Of this new Ta-ra-ra
the other night in Paris two Of the boxes
were occupied by his royal highness

Churchill, Sir George Wombwell, Sir
Henry James and General Bateson.
Whether the Countess Russell and her
ariStocratic set will ever quite initiate
this display of pink ankles and SHIN
mering sheen of lace time will tell. But
tie skirt dance within proper limits is
bound to become feature in the diver
S.onS OF fashionable society.

Needles.

Originally all the needles used In Eu-
rope must have come from the east; and
it seems passing strange that no record
has been kept of the time at which these
useful little instruments were first man
ufactured there, but it must have been
at very early period. They were made
in Nuremburg in great quantities in the
Fourteenth century. Their manufac-
ture was introduced in England under
Queen Elizabeth, and fiourished to such
an extent that the workmen soon con-
stituted guild, for we read in 1897 the
"Pinners and the Needlers" partitioned
the queen not to allow foreign pins and
needles to be imported.-WomGn's Work.

terrain Church of Columbia, in con-
neetion with Zion, Pulas and Fayette-
atteviLe churches, should become re-
spOnsible for the support of a foreign
missionary. The committee OF mis-
sions at Nash vile has appointed the
Rev. Arthur ROwbotham to take the
place of the late and lsmented Mr..
Lapsley in the Congo Free State, of
Africa, and proposed that the four
churches named undertake to support
him in his work. With this PROPOSE

and address the Missionary Society
of Zion Church next Sabbath after
noon, and tarry with both congrega-
tions during next week for the pur-
pose of becoming acquainted with as
many as possible.
1t is certainly very desirable and
neces airy that the members OF the
First Presbyterian Church avail them
selves of the opportunity TO hear and
meet Mr. RowbOtham during his
visit. Let all attend the services,

acquainted with him whom they are
