Dreams are generally a repetition of

Famous Walters.
Whoever loves to see exquisite dancing
can satisfy their appetite a any one of the
cottage colonies where New York women
congregate, or in New York itself during
the winter There is In fact, not another
city in the world, except Vienna, perhaps
where SO many faultless walters can be
found. and the peculiar long. gliding step
of the fashionable woman from the big
city on the Hudson can be identified at
once in a crowded room al Hamburg, New
port, or in London.
The smart New Yorker waltzes with her
delicate feet and supple ankles, holds her
body erect, with gracious stateliness her
head is so carried that her eyes glance
freely around the room, her left hand Is
poised, not leaning on her companions
shoulder, and one of her peculiarites Is
that when she dances she never talks and
when her dance is over she is no more
flushed or breathess than If she had slow
ly crossed the room.
The very finest art of the New York
rules Of good waltzing are displayed by
Mrs. Oakley Rhinelander. In her set she
is famous for her beautiful poise, and a
swan gliding down stream moves no less
najestically than this tall, slim young wo-
man, whose expression when she dances
musician listening TO perfect harmonies.
She is somewhat less languorous than Mrs.
/ Tomney Taller, a trihe more stately than
Mrs. Grenville Kane, and her closest rival
is Mrs. Jack Aston, who, however, is not
fond Of this form of exercise.
To waltz with divine deliberation Is
what the New York woman chiefly pre-
fers at ball, but she has taken kind

by a vigorous Virginia reel. That. too

New York. Aug. 1.-THE art Of dressing
well is delivered into the hands of the
woman who knows the eecret OF varying
and refreshing her wardrobe by many
not over expensive devices. In August
the value Of this talent Is at premium,
for now is the time when wear and wealth
er have taken the crispness from the
prettiest gowns. At this writing lace
seems the strong weapon of defense in
feminine hands. against the depredauons
of hard use and hot days. During this
month the mission of lace is especially
made evident at the casino or country
club dinners and dances, that now cele-
brate the countless yacht races, gglf
tournaments and polo games At such fes-
tivitios the sweetest gowns are more or

CATS IN COLD STORAGE,
How a Low Temperature Changed
the Habits of Three Kittens


The effect of climate upon the capillary
properties of certain animals was striking
ly and most practically illustrated in New
York some little time ago. A certain ware
house man on Jane street was ANNOYED by
the ravages of innumerabie hordes of mice.
He had little trouble in the main part Of
his building where a couple of well-train-
ed cats kept the place tolerably free from
the pests, but in the cold storage portion
the mice held full sway. They nibbled into
packages and boxes, and destroyed such
quantities Of fruits that heroic measures
were necessary. 1t seemed rather a cruel
experiment, but the nuisance became so I'M
bearable that he decided at last to install
cat in the cold storage warehouse Pro
vision to a certain extent was made for her
comfort, and she was left to her own de-
| vices and the mice.
Pussy seemed to flourish Notwithstanding
| the cold and in the course of about week
became mother to a fine litter of six KIT
| tens. After a time three of the latter were
| removed but the old cat and her remain
| ing progeny We're still left in their arctic
quarters When allowed out it was noticed
| that she grew weak and listless She tot
! tered about in an aimless way as though
| all energy and interest in life were lost.
| As soon, however, as she was returned 10
| her cold quarters she recovered her Vlgor
and became as bright and active as usual
| A curious feature was soon observed IN
! the kittens They grew to an immense
1 size, their coats became long and shaggy
and the fur much coarser than that OF an
ordinary cat; 1t had also a curious ZEN
dency to curl. The feelers, or whiskeFs
too, grew to nearly double length, so tha'
when they were placed beside the mem
bers of their own Immediate family me
difference was so marked that they might
have easily passed for an entirely different
| breed
The change took place within three
months, giving a curious example OF no"
suddenly and completely nature Will adapl
itself to the exigencies of climate with tne
young. 1t wili be interesting TO kno" !.
the future progeny OF these young ca,s
will inherit Nthe peculiar features OF then

King Lear.

The Savannah Lite rary Club
devoted an evening 10 King Lear
last Friday at the home of the
Misses Barlow. Some of the
papers would have interested the
scholar or presented a study for
the phiIosopher.-Notably tn Q
able essay Of Mr.. Woodside and
that of Mrs. Broyles and Miss
Stella Barlow.-The Music was
also a feature of the evening, and
the selection of Mrs. Woodside
with its majestic movement formed
a fitting prelude to the analysis
of King Lear. Miss Ruth Stone
was called upon, and responded
with a number which happily re-
fiected the sunshine of her nature.
The playing of these two artists
contrasted together, deserves
more than q mere passing com
ment. Either would appeal to
artist, and the work of both is OF
a high order more than sugges
tive of the principles and far be-
yond the material. One showed
q soft beautiful touch, aud an ex
ceptional Interpretation, the Other
a dramatic cxerution bordering or
brilliancy. Either would entertain
a Metropolitan audience. Takel
oil in all the evening was a sue
cess and a consensus of opinion
would give Savannah a desirable
notch in the scale of literature
and art.
