The granite strike is still on, although
in Barre. Vt, and Lowell Mass, the
granite cutters and manufacturers have
agreed to scale which allows 33 cents
an hour minimum wage and an S-hour
day On piece work an increase of II
per cent. is allowed. The Granite Man
ufacturers Association of New England
says the situation remains the same.
The strikers have made no overtures
for peace, nor has any proposition been
received by the manufacturers looking
to a meeting between themselves and
the men. A correspondent of the Bos-
ton Herald reports less than 200 non
union men working on Mt. Waldo, and
no probability of settlement. The
company expect more men. They have

plained. By this time ii was midnight and the artist sounded twelve strokes on the Chinese gong as the signal that the snake dance was to begin.
 Painters call the dancer, who is an ar tist's model, Christine, but this name may be generic. She stood above medium height, of slender build, and had a fine boise of the head. Her features were regu- lar and pleasing, and in years she did not appear to be more than l9 A Turkish screen provided the only green room, ana the glimpse of bare arm now and then gave added expectancy to the spectators, who had taken seats on the diyan by the colored glass window. A tiger skin as soft to the touch as a cotton ball was spread on the floor in the center of the room. Standing on this, Christine came between the spectators and the Syrian lamp. Hav- ing completed other arrangements, the ar- tist stepped to a cabinet concealed by large palm He opened a sliding door, took something out that the dim light made ob- scure. and passed behind the screen. In moment he returned to the center or the room and took up violin. With the first notes of the snake dance music Christine glided in barefoot noiselessness to the uger skin and began the dance.

Wide golden circlets were clasped about her arms midway be- tween shoulder and elbow. Her fingers were bare of jewelry, but large circles or a small gold wire pierced her ears She was nude to the waist, displaying beauty that many a ehisel and brush have copied From her hips fell a gauge of black lace with jet trimmings. slashed at the slde' that no play of muscle might be checked.
 And then, in her hands, and high above her head, 1t was seen, she held large Al bino boa constructor, whose shining COILS fell about her bare, white arms.
 Softly came the first violin notes, and gracefully the dancer dipped to the music, every gesture in harmony with the soft chords The snake twined around her arms in caressing fashion, and the dancer cooeo words of endearment to it. The snake oir- cled about her waist or her throat as she willed. and as she swayed to the tones or the violin described many sinuous curves about her body.
 The rhythm of the music became more pronounced. It developed ipto the giving of Strauss waltz and the dancers qYcK- sned steps followed every note. She held {fz boa to her bosom, clasped it lovingly around her neck or held 1t out et aSU's length. In tbat position the snectators Tor the first time could appreciate the snsse's size. It was as large around es the dam cer's arm at tbe biceps, and its length was kreater than her height
 The climax of the weird music wes loud passage that ended abruptly. Above
