DANCING MASTERS CONDEMN
1.-THE National association Of dane
ing masters, which has Just been in ses-
sion in Chicago, naturally was more or
less interested in the exhibitions Of dane
ing given at the plaisance by the dane
ers of different nations, but they were by
no means favorably impressed with the
displays that they saw, which. they say,
are low and vulgar, and tend to bring
the art Of dancing into disrepute. Secre-
tary C. Woodwork Masters, of the as
ISOLATION. has therefore prepared let
ter to President Hginbotham and the
fair cor missioners. showing the position
taken by the masters and asking that
something be done TO remedy the fault
! they find. He says: 'yThe style Of
movements practioed by these so-e1lled
too Objectionable for people Of refined
taste to cOuntenAnce 1t Is depraved
and immoral exhibition. IL may well be
styled an outrage to allow such an ex-
hibition and rate II under the head Of
dancing. II Is no other than a slightly
modified version of the orgy practiced
and known In Spain as the 'Chica,' which
was carried into that country by the
Moors in the eleventh century, and which
was finally forbidden by royal edict to
we to understand that n thing decreed
to be too vicious to be allowed 10 live in
Spain In the eleventh century is good
enough for an exhibition In Americas
fair land fn this the nineteenth century 2"
