portunity offered by the advent Of an
exposition has been seized upon TO put
before the public the dances of differ
ent countries and epochs.

Here the dances possess only spec
tacular merit, and, like most Of the
oriental dances, can be admitted on a
European stage only after having been
greatly modified. Clothed In wide silk
en- trousers Of striped pattern that
reach to the ankles, which are Ell
circled by golden bracelets, and wi
the bodies covered with a mantle Of
soft and transparent texture that Is
draned about them with great art, the
bayaderes mimic, to the strains Of slow
and monotonous music, love scenes,
avowals. coQuetry and refusals. The
characteristic charm OF the Hlnd0O
dances lies IN the fact that the body
alone has part I'm them, the head, arms
and lower limbs having no share.

there is given n guaracha, to be seen

BOAT WITH GLASS BOTTOM,
How n Millionaire shIpOwner Will

How Millionaire ShIpOwner VIII
Search For His Daughters Bodies.
Captain James Corrigan, the million
aire shipowner of Cleveland, is frantic
with grief at the failure of wreck
ers to find the bodies Of his two
daughters, Ida and Jane, who We're
lost with four others when the yacht
Idler was sunk a few weeks ago.
Corrigan has recovered four bodies
so far-thOse Of his wife. his daughter
Ethel, their aunt, Mrs. Charles Riley,
and her baby. To find the two that
are yet ut the bottom of the lake he
Is prepared to spend a fortune. He
has equipped a remarkable boat TO
make the search, says the New York
Journal, using ideas that have never
been used before In exploring a water
bottom, but. which, no doubt, will be
used by wreckers hereafter.
Corrigan took an ordinary dredging
scow 80 feet long and 20 feet wide.
1t has a fat bottom. In the bottom Of
the scow he built two glass headlights
six feet square so that he can look
down into the water When the OBJ
server gets below the ripping surface
1t is not difficult to see a long distance.
The scow has aboard an electric light
plant capable of supply 40 incandes-
cent lamps. These lights are to be
lowered from the scow to the bottom
of the lake, Illuminating 1t so that the
bodies will be visible. If they have
not been swept away by currents, they
may be placed. Captain Corrigan,
whose family was almost wiped out
by the wreck, will sit at the headlights
looking down into the lake, expecting
every moment to see the faces Of his
dead daughters.

Horse PuIIed His Tooth ont.

William J. Smith, a well known res
ldent of Babylon, n. Y, had one Of bis
large front teeth pulled out by horse
the other day, says the New York
Sun. He was at work on the horse
when it became restless from the
dies and switched its tail vlciously.
Smith, who was smoking a pipe, tried
to calm the horse. Suddenly, to his as
constituent, the horses tail caught on
the stem Of the pipe and yanked the
pipe out Of Smiths mouth, carrying a
large front tooth with 1t. The tooth
was extracted as quickly as If the op-
Grafton had been performed by den
fist, Smith says, and with no more
pain. The tooth was perfectly sound.

NEW FILIPINO COLLEGE.
Ell LIceO of Manila starts with Three
Hundred and FIFTY PUPILS.

HI LiCeO OF mNn1iH SturNh w I'm
Hundred and Fifty Pupils.
FL Liceo de Manila. the new Filipino
college, has opened with 800 pupils.
Over $1,000 has been spent by the
regents Of the new college in securing
q building and providing accommodate
ton for the students. Thousands Of
textbooks have been ordered from the
States, and they are expected daily,
saws the Manila Freedom. The build
Ing chosen in San Miguel was consid-
cred too small, and the regents have
purchased large and commodious
building at 223 Dulumbayan, where
there is plenty Of room for 600 pupils.
The faculty have great deal of work
on their hands at the present time ar
ranging the different grades and class
es. Among the $50 students there are
many who have not been attending
any institution of learning for some
years, and il is necessary out of the
entire number to find out just at what
stage of advancement they have ar
rived before deciding TO which grade
they belong The greatest care is be-
ing exercised in this regard, as a good
beginning will be one of the principal
elements upon which the success Of the
institution will be based. A large stan
OF clerks are busy arranging a conven-
lent programme of class work, and
when actual teaching commences there
will be no hitch. The regents are now
negotiating for q full stock of school
appurtenances and instruments to be
used in the study of chemistry, and
every effort Is being made to secure the
latest and most improved textbooks
on all subjects.
The establishment Of the Liceo marks
a new era in the educational work
among the FiliplnOs. They have never
had n nonsectarian institution. and It's
establishment proves that the people
are beginning to appreciate the advan-
tages Of American institutions. For
merly all higher branches of education
were controlled by the friars, and most
Of the hours Of study were devoted to
religious exercises and studies of like
nature. In the new college religion
will not have any part in the work,
the faculty believing that the religious
training can be cared for at the homes
and in the church. The application of
$50 FIipinos for admlttance into the
institution proves the popularity of the
movement among the better class Of
Filipinos.

Newest Crime.

The automobile has created q new
crime for which as yet there IS no

though 1t tore down the street all by
