The cotillon or the german Is abso.
lately necessary to the success Of .
dance. and new figures are hailed with
delight. Probably the secret Of Its sue.
cess Is its possibility of endless variety.
Each season sees the introduction of new
figures. and this winter there have been
introduced number Of novelties, one
Of the prettiest of which, according to
the New York Commercial Advertiser. is
the fencing figure. In this two men are
supposed to fight for the privilege Of
dancing with certain girl. Foils ars
given them, tipped on the ends with
powder puffs literally busted with pow
der. The one who makes the first white
mark over vital spot is the victor and
dances with the cause of the duel.
Another novelty is dancing through
paper doors. For this figure frames GOV.
sred with tissue paper are set up. and
the couples dance through them. The
scarf figure is pretty and is danced by
almost dozen couples. who wear light
oolored silken scarfa
Flower figures are particularly pretty.
Long stemmed roses are tied with rib
bons A certain number Of blossoms are
given to each man, who kneels and offers
them to q lady. II she refuses, she
waves him away; il she accepts. she de-
taches q small boutonniere from the
others and pins it upon the coat Of the
favored one.
Many Of the japanese novelties are
used for favors. Paper caps. aprons,
flowers, ETC.. are presented and must be
worn through the figure. The little rib
bon wound hoops used for rattles make
attractive favors; also the bell trimmed
tambourines
The success of . german depends
upon the leader, as he must start all the
figures, and the man who is most ready
with novel features is in the greatest
demand as a cotillon leader.
The 1.-TWO STEP Is the favorite dance
Just now and can be danced to almost
any music .,nd he as slow or as fast as
one chooses to make it.
One Of the newest dances this season
IL the Brunswick caprice" 1t some
what resembles the Oxford minuet and
IL compose of several different steps,
including the polka, varsouvienne and
the mazourka, and is remarkable for the
variety of its steps and poses. The quad
rille and iancers are always danced,
for nothing seems to take the place Of
these dances in the public favor.
