A TURKISH HAREM DANCE.
Omene's Graceful Step and Curves
Before a Select Audience.

few newspaper men, some baldheaded
men and light sprinkling of the softer
sex witnessed the graceful curves and
gyrations of the Turkish harem dancer,
Omene, at Stockwell's Theater late last
night.
After the serpentine dance and the skirt
dance Omene is a relief and a Joy. She
wears far more clothes than the ballet
dancer. and her limbs. except below the
knee. are covered with Turkish trousers
that hang in profusi0n of s;lken folds.
There were no cOrSetS nor stays to Stiffan
the body and make its movements unnat-
ural. All is freedom and grace.
Omene's movements are undulations. not
cOnt0rtions. There was no high and
awkward steps, no violent gymnastics, no
sudden leapings to and fro. 1t is easier to
say what her dance is not than to tell Just
what it is.
1t Is new here and will be sure to catch
the bald heads. But it is disappointing to
some. Though of the clinging twning,
sensuous sort are the movements. they
lack the ensuality expressed in many of
the modern dances.
Omene is very prettv. blonde, with
dark. languorous eyes. Neither stout nor
slim. neither tail nor short. The dance
she gave last night after the performance
Is very. very charming. and chaste withal.
But it is peculiarly the Turkish dance.

are alleged to indulge in, only one would

THAT TAX LEvY.-Ever since reorgan-
iZation of Berkeley as city of the fifth
class was decided urOn, it has been a ques-
ton whether the law allowed a levy of
only 90 cents or of 25. or even more, for
school purposes. In answer to INQUIRIES
made, Second Deputy Acknowledgement
Oregon Sanders answers that an annual
tax not exceeding % cents on the 500
can be levied. and A. NJ. Kpnnistrn, a
member of the San Bernardino School
Board, says that % cents is there col
lected. but by the county. and then paid to
the city.
WAYLAID AND RoBBED.-F. Speesman.
a cigar-manufacturer, living on Bristol
street, West Berkeley, WAS waylaid Tnes-
day evening as he was crossing from Oak
land Point on the Oakland local line to Six
teenth- treet station, on the Berkeley
line. He was Knocked Senseless by blow
on the head, delivered from the rear. His
pockets were rifled. He was found in an
insensble condition by a policeman and
taken to DR.. WOolsey's hospital, where his
wound was dressed.
ONLY Two DAYS LEFT.-Berkeley cit-
Zens whose name do not appear on the
great register have only two days left in
which to register so as TO vote in the city
election on the Goth inst. For the benefit
of Berkeley. deputy registration officer
has been appointed, who can be found this
