- The New STYLE Dance.

The young people who indulge in
the dizzy waltz will hear with interest
that the heads of Washington and
New York society have declared that
sitting out a waltz will be more fash
iouable from now on than dancing,
the only difference isIyou sit instead of
dance. The mans right arm is around
the girls waist while his left hand
holds her right. Her left hand is
placed on his shoulder while her head
rests lovingly on his bosom, and all
they have to DO il to sit and listen to
the music, Now that's something like
it. We have always regarded ii quite
a nuisance TO have to gallop mile or
two to get hug or two. A room full
OF people sitting around o. sofas hug

This will give the old rheumaticky
brethren chance to waltz, and while

dance, he has TO get powerful old be-

iHE WELL is FINISHED.
Was Turned Over to the COMMITTEE By
The Contractor this Morning

The new well at Trinity University
has been completed. The second
water bearing strata OF sand was
struck late Saturday afternoon and
yesterday test of the well was made.
The test was very satisfactory and
about AZ 900 gallons were drawn ont
without lowering the water one inch.
The well IL now 1918 deep and the
second strata was penetrated about "a
feet. The building committee met in
regular session this morning and re-
ceived the well from Contractor Dear
ing. The cost of the well amounted to
$1,000. MIR, Dearing says it is cue OF the
best wells in the city and he thinks the
supply will be sufficient for all practi-
cal purposes.
After the routine business of the
committee had been transacted a
committee composed of Osce Good
win and Judge M. B Templeton was
appointed to Look after the planting
OF trees and otherwise beautifying the
University grounds. This Is matter
in which every citizen OF the town,
and especially those owning lot, in
that addition, is interested. Too
much attention cannot be given thls
project and nov IL the time to begin.
The streets aud avenues will soon be
laid a and the work OF planting trees
should be commenced nc once. II has
been suggested that day be sci apart
for that papose and that all The eiti-
gems OF the town unite In au aYbor
dSy celebration.
Rsv. l.. c. Ktrxes, president elect
of Trinity University, arrived in the
city last night and met with the com
mittee this morning. He expressed
himself a. being well pleased with the
progress made on the building MIR.
Kirkes expects TO move here just as
soon as lie can procure y suitable
home so that be may take active
charge of the work. We understand
that work will soon be commenced on
two dormitories and home for the
president near the university build
ing.
The corner stone of ths university
blilding will be formally laid about
the middle Of March and the exer-
eises Incidental thereto will be OF an
elaborate nature.
