HoNEsDALE. May 16.-The second
night of the kirmess again brought
forth large audience. numbering
nearly as many as on the first night.
The dances in every case were much
better, more freedom aud frolic being
shown. The May Pole and Gypsy
dances were received with the same
heartiness Of the preceding night,
The Spanish dance is "a light skip
ping step that takes the eye at once.
The young Spaniards with their long
spears and bright companians pre-.
sented most attractive appearance.
The dance is OF that lively, quick,
thrilling nature that is sure to take
we'll and the house applauded again
and again Miss Antoinotte D. Ball
dances favorite solo to the Spanish.
Her graceful bewitching movements
bring on loud applause,
The flower dance, by young ladies
alone, is Of much slower, stately
movement than the others. The figures
danced are pretty and gracefully exc
cuted.
The tarantelle is similar to the Span.
ish dance but in place Of the spears Of
the young men in the Spanish the
young ladies carry long scarfs, The
fine da ancing of the young people was
well received.
Probably no dance provokes more
laughter or is more heartily enjoyed
than the War and Moon lance OF the
Americans Indians. Dressed in exact
resemblance to the original American
Indian with war paint, tomahawk and
feathers, these braves and equaws
dance TO the time of tho rumbling
crashing music Of the war dance. In
the lead may be seen Sheriff Murphy,
in his mocCasiHs six feet five inches
tall and L. B, Clark Of nearly the same
height, followed by other giants Of six
foot statue. The war whoops ATE
blood Guiding, Tho tomahawk is
hourished with menace. At the sound
of the danger every Indian drops rs II
one person. Then comes part that
p!eas,s every on-l1aEer Miss Barbara
Weaver dances n solo IN the circle Of

pleHsing. Miss Weavers solois excel

aud long. They bowed their ackuowl-
cdgements, hut did not dance the sec
oui time The solo danceys wnr5 re-

Owing TO the Abandonment Of the
