Art and the Ballet.

The possibilities for the attainment
Of q very real and solid artistic success
in the direction of the ballet are not
the ballet is not considered such an in
dispensable entroe here us abroad, yet
our national fondness for comic opera
with spectacular choruses offers a de-
mand that has but seldom been supplied
with adequate skill. An occasional pro-
duction has, it is true, exploited a bit
Of good taste; but, as a rule, American
ballots, while expensive enough, are
rather gaudy than gorgeous, lacking i'll
unity of idea and Unanswered without
much eye to effect.
The qualities that make genuine ar
tistic success possible in the ballet make
gross error more than probable. Success
here demands ability both III the large
and in the small. Working closely with
his li%eutenants, the designer of costumes
and the dancing master, the director of
the ballet must give each coryphee or
each small group an individuality, and
this must merge smoothly into the
whole. The manipulation of q horde of
dancers in whom unusual intelligence
is rare and might be dangerous requires
a skill in the movement of large nun
bers, u quick eye for effective evolu-
tions, exact tactics that will bring the
right body to the right place i'll the
right way, and a presence of mind in
emergencies that demands of the ballet
director a generalship of limited range
indeed, but of much acuteness and much
responsibility .-Scribner's.

Remarkable Juggling Feat.

There is always al abundant supply
Of stories of the EXPERIENCES of Hindoo
jugglers and %acrobats. One who moves
is the latest novelty. This performer is
mounted OH u bamboo pole about 10
feet high, the top Of which is tied to n
Rirdle worn around his waist. A small
cushion is fastened Il few feet down the
pole, which acts as Il leg rest. The aero
bat hops around u large space in the
liveliest way, uttering cheerful shouts
and accompanied by the tapping of a
curious drum. He also execute n sort
of dance and goes through a little PAN
tomime. It is a marvellous feat of
equilibrium. To walk Oh a pair of stills
as high as this would be Il performance
worthy of exhibition on our variety
stage. But to hop around on n is quite
another thing.
The same man can do many other
wonderful things. He appears absolute
" perfect in the art Of balancing. He
can balance a very light stick on his
nose and q heavy IL on his chin and
then throw the heavy one into the air
with his head and catch it on the end
Of the light. When balancing these two
sticks, end on end, he will make one
revolve in one direction and the other
in the other. He puts Il hand on 4
fat, circular stone, throws his feet up
into the air and balances n stick on
each Of them. At the same time he re-
wolves rapidly OH the pivot formed by
his arm aud the stone. Boston Tran

the women themselves, and il is one OF
the first results of equal suffrage for
both sexes. An argument against this
concession has been that women are IN
to military service and that they
would avoid IL if possible. The second
half Of the proposition seems to have
dropped out in Colorado. Women there
have asserted their desire to be u part
OF 1.-The plumed troop and the big wars
that make ambition virtue" Having
gained al equal right to vote and serve
on juries the women Of that young state
have serenely insisted that they must
have equal duties and privileges in the
militia. The legislature has admitted
their claim and the governors signature
will complete the law.
But legislatures car not pass on the
That "a be left to time and expert
ence. The immediate question relates
to their service in the state militia,
where their duties are chiefly confined
to occasions of display and the preserva-
ton Of public order. As far as mill
tary evolutions are concerned women
can probably master them as well as
men. They are fond of The broom drill
in colleges, and many dances, like the
lancers, are based on tactical move
ments and u cadence step. There may
be difficulties about selecting a proper
uniform, but the vivandieres have al
least made a beginning in that respect,
and the rainy day clubs offer some prac-
Lical suggestions. In suppressing n
mob n well-trained regiment of women
militia would be particularly effective.
Nothing on earth would make Il rioter
run quicker than to know that his fe-
male relatives and acquaintance were
bearing down upon him in all the pano-
ply of civic authority and military
might. One delicate point to be consid-
cred is whether the women militia
would yield the unQuestioning obedi-
ence to superiors that is the basis of a
soldiers work. A refractory male re-
cruit is sometimes shot in order go
encourage the Others"
The horrors OF war will not keep wo-
men out Of the ranks. AS hospital
nurses they see them al their worst.
Feminine bravery and endurance are
established facts. Nearly every large
army is compelled 70 dismiss women
who enlist disguised as men. One
Yankee woman served as an infantry
man through the revolution, and ON
cealed her sex until after the fall OF
Yorktown. OF course, all the world
knows that the fiery martial inspiration
and heroism of n French peasant girl
drove the armies OF England from
France, and broke the bargain by which
the French crown was to be handed
over to an English king. In the most
desperate sieges m have shared the
struggles and privations of the beleag-
ured men. AT the same time the idea of
women in the militia is somthing OF a
shock, and the other states will be apt
to wait to see how it works out in Col

BAD o H BOYS.

There are few, II any, states in the
union whose people take precedence Of
the cttixene OF Iowa in intelligence and
morality. Bearing this fact In mind it
10 difacult to account, on any reasonable
hypothesis, for an attempt by the Iowa
legislature to do ir%reparable damage to
the moral character Of any portion OF
the states population. But that such is
the Ease 10 proven by the fact that the
proposed amendment to the Iowa cigar
etc law has q provision that any minor
arrested for smoking a cigarette may
escape the penalty by giving informa-
ton of the seller.
We can believe 1t possible for a boy to
indulge in the bad habit Of smoking
cigarettes and yet develop into honor
able manhood. We can believe it pos
sible for . boy addicted to that habit 10
become , self-respecting and universally
respected man. However injurious ci-
sarette-smoking may be, it seems un-
reasonable to suppose that 1t is newt
ably bound to irreparably impair a
youth'a moral nature.
But the lesson that this amendment
viii. II adopted. put before the boys
and young men Of Iowa is a lesson in
bad morals. It offers a high premium
on sneakins hypocrisy. 1t says to every
boy who has not reached the voting age
to the kid" in knickerbockers as we'll
~ to the full-grown man Of 20 years, II
months and 20 daysVthat he may vio-
late the state law with impunity. and as
often a. he pleases, on condition that he
becomes . sneak. 1t proposes to make
all the boys in the state detectives. 1t Is
o modification Of the Parkhurst plan Of
getting evidence.
We arc glad to g that the Burlington
Hawk-Nye lie trying to induce the legis-
lature not to perpetrate this offense. 1t
reminds the Legislators that the pro-
posed amendment is of doubtful morali-
". and cites, for their instruction, the
fact that the Connecticut senate has vot-
ed to repeal the law under which a per-
con arrested for drunkenness could be
eoanpelled to tell where he obtained the
hqaor under penalty Of commitment for
contempt.
We hsve heard q great deal of late
about freak legislation In the populist
~leksslatures Of Kansas and Nebraska.
aud,ft IL true that some wild and foolish
measures have been proposed and SER
iously considered in those bodies, al
thossGh few Of them have crystalized
into lava a But no populist law-maker
hae rysr suggested such pernicions leg
islskiou ~ this Iowa proposition. 1t Is
going quite far in the way Of Inducing
men to vfolate law for. the sake OF pun
ishing them to employ police detectives
Tor that purpose. Under the reform
rexime in New York this plan has been
peshed to . revolving and inhuman ex-
,treme, In this city It has. occasionally
been responsible for abuses. Pitif1l
tales have been concocted and told to
saloookeepers-hles Of sudden illness
and terrible sufRering-to induce them
to make q sale Of liquor on Sunday. No
city has reason to be proud Of such per-
fornances. But all thts will be eclipsed
in Iowa II the legislature adds all the
boys TO tie detective corps.-Washing-
