SCORES THE CHARITY BALL.
Local Minister Rakes SOciety's An
nuaI Over the Goals

Rev. S. G. Smith, Of the PEOPLES s
church, took for the subject of his dis
course last evening the Dance of An
cient and Modern Times" In the course
of his remarks he said:
People incapable of music were also
incapable of dancing. 1t was the most
inferior of the arts, if, it could be called
an art; Prlmi rim daneing g WAS an idea
to make Lying Pictures and used TO
make life and amusement dramatic
Primitive man had the hunting and
war Dances andssthe Greeks and Chi
nese had dancing on the stage The.
Christian churches in the eighteenth
century had dances9in the5church as
part of religious worship. In all the
earlier dancing men were the orly ones
tC take part in the dances The mod
ern dance was entirely conventional.
Much couldabe said in favor of children
and young persons learning to dance.
1t made them graceful and. up to
certain age, was all right. The modern
dance was not of itself immoral. but. if
people were of an immoral nature, the
modern dance gave them an opportun-
ity. The evils of the dance were bad
associations and bad hours Of all the
forms of hypocrisy in connection with
dancing the so-called charity ball was
the worst. 1t was not charity, because
the tickets were not bought for this
purpose. 1t was an outrage to call il
the charity ball Some bought tickets
because they were forced into it by rea-
son of their position in society, and yet
society people recognized charity balls
as the greatest bore. Others saw in

worst form of dancing. Public balls
were violation of the laws Of health
sociability and modesty. There could
be no question as to whether dancing
was right or wrong. There were young
men and women who should never
dance at all. When the tone of man
hood or womanhood was lowered, there
was the evil Of dancing What was
needed was not less amusement, but
more character and sincerity in the
forms Of amusements.

We we're camped on the upper reaches Of

highlands famous in Aryan song and story
from remotest ages. Even now remains of
the ancient Rajput keeps stand on mountain
buttresses here and there, and ruins of cities
crumble into the soil Of these beautiful val

riors that first came there succeeded in time
great population, and then the Marhatta
sword gave this region back to the tiger and

In such country it is mistake for
strangers to explore for game. One saves
time, trouble money, and temper by waiting
until its whereabouts has been discovered by
those to whom the wilderness is familiar.
Every little struggling village has a hereditary
huntsman, and when large animals are in the
vicinity, for one reason or another all have good
cause to know it, seeing that they suffer in
their pockets and persons.

oath of office on the Goth day OF the following
May.
cit is pleasant thing in my memory
that my appointment came from President
Lincoln. Up TO that time there had been no
representative here of the Pacific Coast. A
new empire had arisen in tue West whose
laws were those of another country. The
land titles were from Spanish and Mexican
grants. both OF which were oft overland by
the claims of tie first settlers.
"To bring order out Of this confusion,
Congress passed an act providing for another
seat on this bench, with the intention that
it should be filled by some one familiar with
these conflicting titles and with the mining
laws of the coast, and as it so happened that
/ had framed the principal of these laws and.
moreover, was Chief Justice of California, it
was the wish Of the Senator's and Representa-
tives of that State, as well as those from
Oregon, that should succeed to the new posi-
ton.
when I came here the country was in
the midst of war. Washington was one
great camp. and now and then the boom of
cannon could be heard from the other side of
the Potomac This court met in regular ses-
sion, never once failing in time and place,
and its work went on as though there were
