REFCRM IN DANCING.

 T.:rou-llcut the Country.
 At the recent meeting of the National Association of Dancing Masters increment has been started to establish . unifcra ect of dances for the entire co2,,trv, 50 that g dancer will appear to Gs much advantage in one city as another ard will not be embarrassed by tnc difference in tho style of steps OF by any sectional pcculiarities. It is somewhat remarkable, says the St. Louis Eczuls::c. that this idea has never before occu.rcd to the dancing mas tera, but now that t has been agitatcd it should Ec pushed forward until it is succcssfu:ly carried out. Americans arc recognized as far and away the best dancers in the world, partly be- carsc they gre naturally graceful and agile, and partly because tho national style of daacing, vbilc t differs in par ticulars, Is generally Of q nature to en- able reasonably graceful man to raalsc . good appcar2rcc on tho floor. But while man may be good dancer in New York he may make 9 sad mess Of it in Chicago CT New Orleans, and vice versa. Not that the general principles of dancing are not the same, but because in different localities ccr1ain apparently trilirg pcculiarities of step arc allowed to creep i1 which confuse a stranger and often throw him out of step completely until he has mastered tho local style. The St. Louis man finds that he has trouble in dancing with the Pittsburgh girl, and the Kansas City man confesses that it requires . good deal Of patience to master tho unaccrstcncd movement of thc young lady from Boston. All four parties ray be the nest graceful and accomplished of dancers. bat there is in each case that littlo distinguishing peculiarly, that bit Of ''local pride,'' as it might be called, which is annoy ing un5l the parties have danced with one another often enough to Gccomno- date their steps each to the other. This is onc of tho difficulties in tho art of round dcNcing which might be easily rcmcdicd by an agreement among the dancing masters to conform to the same steps and to popularize the same general styles Of dances.

wcRLD:3 GxPEN5IVE BRIDGES.

The Structure Uniting NOW York and
 D-ooi-.yn Heads t.lc List.
 The very latest official computation puts the total cost cf the Brooklyn bridge Gt ST. .45o, ,655. The bridGc when contracted for was to cost s10. 800, ,O30. At least, such was the original estimate of John A. RoabIiag, who in 1867 put the ccos of the brid.rc at S7.000. 001 and of the approaches to it S3.So3, ,O00. Ac- tually, the bridge cost S15, 5,0cO, ,03o, which was not much of an increase over the original figures when the diff faculties of the undertaking came into account. the bridge not being opened until six5ccn years after the original estimate was made. Subsequent ex- penditlres, which have brought the total cost up to the present figure, arc due to the acquisition of new ap- breaches and to improvements upon the structure which were no5 and could not have been calculated upon when it was opened twelve years ago.
 The Brooklyn bridge is the most ex- pcnsive work Of the kind in the world, exceeding in cost any other bridge of which authentic figures are available. The bridge over the Forth, in Scot land, cost S14,CCO,o0O, the Victoria bridge in Canada cost s12.00O,Oo0, the bridge across the Yolga at Caratov, in Russia, cost S4,CC0,0C0. The cost of London bridy yc was S1o. .0oO, 900, of Water loo bridge 35.530,o30, ard of the Vest munster bridge @, ,500, GOO.
 With the caornous increase of via duct work fer railroad purposes in tke United States tho profession of bridge builder" has become a very important one, steel and iron work having largely superseded r.asonry, since by improved processes in their manufacture struc- tural iron and steel have materially de- creased in cost.

4 Cor-a-cors Woman.

As an cxaraple of woman's courage a story of 9 brave school-tcachcr comes from India. Hiss Lucinda Gore, of Lackharabad, was standing in the schoolhousc one day, when, turning round. she saw in the open doorway the glaring eyes of tiger. She did. not scream or faint, but seized broom and drovc it full in the tigcr's face, brush foremost. Some of the bristlcs entered the tigers eyes and with a howl of pain he drew back to I-alic spring at her. Then shc slammed the door in his face. The supports of the door were but slender and would not resist the tigers attacks long, but, while he banged his head at it, she lowered one of the boys through tho window to alarm the neigh bors. Assistance soon arrived and the tirer was shot
