In the Circuit Court.

n the circuit court yesterday the
time was consumed in arguing instruc-
tons to the jury in the case OF Adams,
Clements & Go. versus the Norfolk and
Western railroad. The arguments will
be made before the jury to-day upon
these instructions and the evidence.
After the reading of the orders Mar
shall Mccormick, on behalf of the re-
ceiver of the Berryville Land and I'm
provement Company, made motion for
continuance in the case against ID. p.
Strouse on the ground that Ed. Richard
son, secretary of said defunct com pany,
had taken unto himself wife and de-
parted for the Worlds Fair, taking
with him the keys of tho safe, which
contained the stock books, ledgers and
other papers of the company necessary
in this suit. The motion was contested
by Messrs. kirkpatrick and Phlegar for
the defense. The court granted the
continuance when it was shown that
Mr.. Richardson had been duly sum
moned. The court on motion directed
execut ton for costs in favor of the de-
Tense and on motion of the plaintiffs
rule was issued against Mr.. Richardson
to show cause why he should not be
fined for non attendance.

ROCHESTER, Oct. 5.-Some newspaper
reporters were talking over their ex-
perience here the other day when the
group was joined by man who has re-
tired from the work of gathering news
and gone into business.
II have never been snubbed or turned
down. one of the reporters was saying,
"by really important man in my life.
My rebutfs have invariably been at the
hands of the small fry"
'1our experience" chiincd in the
newcomer, is that of almost every cor
respondent and reporter everywherc-a at
least in the United States. To be sure,
there are times when the person ques-
toned must decline to give the informa-
ton asked for, but successful men a.
most always decline III such n WAY as
to give no offense to the newspaper n.e,,,
and thereby show the possession of thai
tact which is one of the greatest helps in

must know something about dancing.
The more they know about symmetrical
figures being equal the nearer they can
get to the front row.
"Of course" said Mr.. Cline, the man.
ager l have before alluded to, in talking
about the dancing women of his theater.
I'VE do not assume to especially guard
or look into the morals of our Young
ladies when they are absent from the
theater, but we keep pretty close
watch on them here, can assure YOU.
and so does the management of every
house where there are chorus girls or
ballet dancers. The girls must look
pleasant to be sure, but they are not
allowed to direct their smiles to any
particular individual nor to have visit
ors. male or female, behind the scenes.
and if any of them should make herself
conspicuous about town we should have
to discharge her.
DO they save money? Well, not Of
ten, you may be sure of that, but there
are plenty of them who support their
mothers, and their sisters, and their hus-
bands. Dancing girls are often unfor-
tunate In their marriages and get sham
dudes for life partners, who are quite
willing to have their clothes and food
and cigarettes bought with the money
that comes from the poses and the MIN
bic feet of their wives.
Process of Selection.
"How are the girls selected? Well, the
manager who has advertised for young
ladies first surveys the crowd of appli-
- al ...1e
those whose faces are sufficiently pleas
ing and are OF tho required height are
told to stand in row. and the manager
passes along Ia 'front.' of them, examining
the palms e.; she hands of each. 1t has
been founS that IL plump, well shaped
hand is m almost infallible indication
that the girl possessing it is of good fig
ure. So unerring an exponent, in fact is
a pretty hand of symmetrical limbs and
torso that i'll nine cases in ten no other
examination is made"
The favor of the public that loves
dancing rs spectacle is tickle. For Il
long time the rcigning premiere was as
truly sovereign III certain circles in New
York as was ever woman who wore
coronct, but of late years women whose

in the acrobatic line, like Carinencita's
poses and stampings, or combinations of
colored lights and swirling draperies,
like those invented by LA Loie" and
initiated by the other serpentine dancers,
have been the popular idols.
Not all of these have served the long
and severe apprenticeship necessary to
pre-cminence i'll the ballet. Before Miss
Fuller discovered, quite accidentally, the
possibilities in convolutions of clinging
silk stutfs, gracefully guided by skillful
hands, assisted by Il supple, beautiful
torso, she had not given much study to
the art of dancing.
What about the moral character of
the dancing women? 1t is as impossible
to speak accurately of them Ell bloc as
of any other class of human beings.
Some are good, and some are-wcll, live
ly, to say the least. But no one can be-
come proficient in anything even if that
anything be dancing without continuous
persistent work. And hard work is the
enemy of bad morals.

These ladies, I was gravely informed
by Eddie Collyer today, are not dancers

says. "They are not legitimate They
simply infringe on the rights of real
dancers. Their performances are moth

staged spectacle awhile ago and ad-
vertised for 100 extras declared the
day after he had examined those who
applied that it was his belief that there
are in New York at least 10000 women
who thAas they can dance well enough
to nsrfc pay for appearing on the
stage, put then he had been overwhelmed
BY The number of applicants and doubt

In European cities they go into the bal
let while still children, and in this way
they learn great deal. In New York
they are prevented from doing so before
they are 16 by the Gerry society, and
this is a great drawback which theatrical
people hope to be able to do away with
before many years. There are many rea-
sons why American girls do not often
rise to the rank of premieres. Perhaps
the Gerry society's restrictions have as
much to do with it as anything else.
Women of the Latin races are more
often eminent dancers than any others.
Dancing with them is a lifelong occupa-
ton, to which everything else Is subor-
| dinated. Fame because Of graceful pos
turing and technically correct steps is
dearer than all else in the world to them,
and so long as a premiere remains upon
the stage she practices hours each day
alike while at work and during vacation
in order to retain the necessary supple
ness of joints and perfect physical con-
dition. The premiere danseuse has little
time for those outside diversions which
are affected by some women who dance,
