Novel Dancing Contest.

There was recently a discussion In
Rome as to the number of steps which
an expert dancer could make in
given time, and, in order to decide the
matter definitely, it was arranged to
give ball and to award prizes to those
dancers who excelled in this respect.
The competition began at ten o'clock
In the evening and ended at five o'clock
next morning. At the close it was
found that the best record had been
made by woman, who had danced 2s,-
600 steps, of which 5000 were waltz
steps, and that next to her came an
other woman, who had danced 1,CO0
steps. To these two, therefore, the
first and second prizes were awarded.
The record of the men who competed
was not satisfactory, as not one of them
succeeded in dancing even as many as
$4,000 steps. If we reckon that two
dance steps are equivalent to one step
which a person takes when walking
we shall find that the lady who won
the first prize and who was crowned
queen Of the ball covered at least two
miles during the seven hours that she
was dancing.-N. Y. Herald.

In reply to Mr.. McMahon's card OF

come, inasmuch as my invitation to
Mr.. Mcmahon had not been accepted
and no interest on their part had been
shown. AS no invitation had been
given to the children of the Catholic
schools, it was thought best not to ad-
NIT few and give the rest no chance.
Consequently, the next morning, l sent
Mr.. Mcmahon word that If he so desir-

either Friday or Saturday night, which
ever he chose. He did not see fit to
reply, but rushed into print.
The exhibit will close tonight and
everybody without regard to race, re-

come. The regular admission will be

PARTY LINE"
TELEPHONE EXCHANGE SERVICE.

The CENTRAL UNION TELEPHONE COMPANY
has successfully devised apparatus by means
of which without in the least impairing
the efficiency of transmission) two or more
subscribers stations may be operated upon
the same line OF circuit, and be enabled To
signal the central office, without disturbing
each other. This improvement relieves par.
ty-linen service of its principal annoyance
and makes it popular with very large class
of telephone users.
In offering this class Of service for either
grounded or metallic circuits, the Company
aims TO bring that which is of the highest
grade within the satisfactory reach of those
whose requirements for telephone service are
but limited, and TO make its cost TO them ma
terially less than the regular rates charged
for "independent-line " service.
Tho Company refers with perfect conf,
dence to those OF its present subscribers who
are using "party-line" service with this
improved apparatus.
The rates for this service viii be quoted
upon application to the Manager, or he will
be glad to can uDoD thoee who request 1t.

of the Prophet is supreme, where Allah
