young ladies' went through a series of
most entertaining movements, a pleas
ing characteristic OF this dance being
the diversity of steps and the ever
changing time OF movement. This WAS
one OF the most spectacular numbers on
the programme. 1t was the very apoth-
esls OF graceful measured motion. The
dancers were: Mrs. Morris Horkheimer,
Snaperon; Misses Flora Morgan, Louise
Norton, Isabel Henry, Flora Stifel. Eva
j. Wilson, Lily Norton, MoIlie Schwert-
teger, Rose Lukens.
An always captivating dance is the
tlSher'S Hornpipe, aud as neatly enact
ea last evening by Frank Sweeney,
Joseph Speidel, VIM. Turner aud Ed
ward Waddell, all in sailor attire, it
evoked loud continued applause. H. c.
sweeney as Captain, effectively render
co bass solo upon the entree. Mrs. j.
r. Merrlman is chaperOne Of this dance.
Then came fancy dance by Fannie
Wheat and Eliza Speidel. Those two
beautiful little dancers bore off not a
lew OF the laurels OF the evening, and
they richly deserved every iota of the
overwhelming applause that was ac-
corded them. Their triumph, however,
was In the Highland Fling, later in the
evening. This is difficult, picturesque
measure OF romantic origin, which they
executed with conSummate grace and
skill. They were fetchingly gotten up
In Scotch kilt, cap, pladie and leggings,
ana were as arch and cOQuettish as ever
Scottish laSsieS dared TO be. Their
pretty feet fairly trinkled in the rapid
and Intricate motions which the dance
demanded. The chaperone of the two
pretty fairy dancers is Mrs. L. Z. Sands.
Next came the Irish dance. The rep
resentatiyeS of the Emerald Isle couldn't
satisfy the longingS OF the spectators
70 see them execute their merry reel,
and they were called and recalled. The
girls wore green dresses, trimmed In
yellow with puff sleeves. The boys were
attired in green coats, white Knicker-
boc6ers and plug hats. 1t was
the most rollicking dance on the pro-
gram, and the spectators laughed until
their sides ached at their new step to
the music Of the gentleman who went
70 the bottom of the sea.
The participants were Mrs. Oliver
T. Rhodes, Chaperon.
Mamie Grub, Miss Bessie Fogle, Miss
Mary Smythe, Miss Isabel Henry,
Miss Sara Mendel, Miss Maude Richards,
Mr.. Edward Waddell, Mr.. Bates But
Ter, Mr.. Robert Haase, Mr.. Robert
Simpson, Mr.. viii Shaffer, Mr.. Frank
Sweeney.
After an exquisitely rendered violin
solo by Miss Mamie Hamilton. of Wash
ington, Pa, came the grand march. 1t

airs did they render, making the dances
all the more spirited and enlivening.
Heralded as Queen Cleopatra, Miss Sara
Sweeney came upon the stage, attired
in rich and ieweled habilimentS, the en-
bodiment OF royal grace and dignity,
surrounded with the stored ceremonial
of courts, and sang the kermoiSe into
the sympathy Of the audience as the III
itial event of the programme. The ad-
vent of the Queen of the Kermoise was
impresSively beautiful, becoming In
PRODUCTION. The ChGrmingly attired at
tendants were Misses Louise Norton
and Lilly Norton, the pages being Mas
ters Jesse Speidel and Edgar Sweeney.
All the dancers appeared on the stage
In the opening, and the bewllderment
OF color was pleasing. Mrs. Jos. A.
Metcaf is ChaperOne Of this opening
feature.
After the opening tableau which dis
closed to a large and eager audience, all
the drUTnQtiS pCrSoRT Of the affair came
one of the most attractive features OF
the evening, the GayOtte by twenty par
Elephants.
Such a quaint array OF early English
DANES and cavaliers in miniature tread
ing the stately measure beloved oy
their remote ancestors, was simply
adorable. The miRniemen wore the
rich toilets, the brOcadeS, knee
buckles, and ruflled shirts Of the gal
lantS OF past ages, with powdered
peruQue. The quaint little damselS
aud danes, with powdered coitfures,
patches and paint and bizarre, Vatican
au Empire gowns, looked like dear
little creatures on Dresden china tea
cups. They danced the stately meas
Ure with demure, old-fRshioned grace,
cOurtesying and Swaying, posing ana
chazzaying with childhoOd's unstudled
grace. The effect was charming. Tue
dancers were Mrs. L. II. Dalzell, chap
eron; Sue Caldwell, Emily Pollock, Ma
ME Grub, Alice Pollock, Bessie klce,
Mabel Brown, Cora Matthews, Lyaia
Good, Mary Moffat, Alice Caldwell, and
Joseph Speidel, Malcolm Brice, William
Turner, George Norton, Walter Sweeney,
j. ID. Merriman, viii Brice, Lawrence
Wheat, Frank Sweeney, George Atkin-
son.
The next feature on the programme
came the always welcome humorlst,
Mr.. VIII Day, who executed conglom-
GRAFTON Of steps known as the kangaroo
Dance. II caught on, but stu not 10

and TO the point.

aesthetic soul with enthusiasm.
barbaric gorgeousness and splendor pre-
vailed, and in the infinite combinations
and arrangement Of colors introduced
oy the intricacies of the march, 1t seem
ed as though human kaleidoscope had
taken possession OF the stage. The
march was led by Prof. Speedy. This
feature was an artistic triumph, and
Mr. Speedy and his co-laborers are to be
congratulated.
The next number on the programme
was the beautiful Cachuca, under the
Guidance of Miss Sue q. Metcalf, the
dancer being Miss Florence Atkinson.
This was one of the most beautiful
solo effects OF the evening, and Miss
Atkinson was showered with applause.
Mrs. Charles l.. Hobbs and Prof.
Speedy next executed a song and dance,
which feature had been anXiously
awaited. As this was the only instance
of a song and dance throughout the
Kermoise, there was naturally consid-
cradle interest attachedtolt. The song
was fairly entertaining, but what
was lacking in song was made up
In the dance, and here was an excellent
oDportunity to observe the ease and
grace of Prof. Speedy's terpsichorean
movements. The Professors feet are
trained TO a nicely. Mrs. Hobbs ac-
omitted herself handsomely, and kept
excellent time to the movements OF the
professor. They were loudly recalled.
No feature of the programme excited
apd long continued
merrlment, than the Indian war Dance
coupled with the Indian Maiden Moon
Dance. TIL Indians were excruclatins-
w funny. They were highly colored
with war paint and gaily decked with
feathers. beads and wore the Choctaw
costume and were armed TO the muzzle.

The French Crisis.

PARIS, Dec. 22.-Today 1t is the
Bonnparte that are stepping to the
front to take advantage of the diff
culties of the republic. The activ-
ity of the royalists has aroused the
jealously of imperialist leaders and
at secret conclave they drafted a
manifesto addressed to the people of
France urging them to recall the
house of Bonaparte to the throne,
This manifesto has not yet been
issued, but awaits the approval OF
Prince Victor, the present recog-
n lied head Of the imperial family.
