these school a'ams, 1 am very positive.
On the stage with the male musicians
sat three fat girls, with those retreating
foreheads and projecting noses on a line
Herewith, which are said to mark the
lower class Turks. When the music has
reached the proper acme of horror each
girl rises in turn and sidles this way and
that along the stage, swinging her arms,
shaking her shoulders so as to make the
front of the body quiver and occasionally
kicking out one foot for six or eight inches.
Towards the last comes the so-called
"danse du ventre" which is nothing but
rapid shaking of the hips and quivering of
the abdomin: muscles. 1t is said to be
"yerv sugge- i've" Maybe it is, to some

In the Algerian theater the dancing was
more piquant and most so in the Persian,
but the latter has been suppressed and
the former reformed. 1t was charged IN
the session of the board of lady managers
that at these theaters there were perform
ances "for gentlemen only at which truly
dreadful things were done, but charges OF
all the dreadful sorts have been made In
that board, the quarrels of which have
made it the standing joke of the fair. The
names of the concessionaires on the plais-

are managed by men of European races,
and while one visit is enough, often more
than enough, to such theaters as those l

worthy Of prolonged study.
Chief among these is the Irish village

WORLDS FAIR, Aug. 10 Especial -
Before coming here | had heard SO much
OF the delicious wickedness of the Midway
plaisance that i felt it my duty to see and
describe it so that the young might take
warning. Like those good ladies who
raised the recent disturbance about it in
the board of lady managers was deter
mined to know if anything really bad was
going on there. So those ladies went any
how, and expressed themselves as dread
fully shocked. / am not so far along that
the top of my head is above the timber
line, as we used to say in Colorado, but
am old enough to qualify me for front
seat at the ballet and sedate enough TO
endure Persian dance.
Well, have come, ] have seen and am
not conquered, for there isn't much wick
edness on the Midway plaisance and what
there is isn't delicious. There is "A good
deal of fun, however, and some fakes
that for pure impudence have attained a
perfectly Himalayan attitude. First it is
to be noted that the lovely odalisques"
and all that sort who attend the fancy ba
zaars speak excellent English with fine
Chicago accent, though / must say that
the managers have shown excellent judg-
ment in selecting dark and muddy
brunettes. With their red caps, natty
jackets and semi-orientalskirtst they make
good imitation Algeriennes. As to the
men they are mixed. To the boss of one
bazaar l ventured French salutation and
promptly received the classical retort:
