Two Kinds of Dancers.

The Rev. Reginald Campbell of
the London City temple during his
visit to America said number of
amusing things. One of them con-
cerned dancing. A young girl asked
DR.. Campbell if he did not consider
dancing graceful.
professional dancing" he re-
piled, sis, | admit, graceful enough
in some cases. But what is there of
grace in the dancing of amateurs?
A man and woman, close together,
spin solemnly about a room. The
mans long black coat tails flap.
Such persons always look to me as
if they had been hired to dance and
were doubtful if they would get
paid"

Don Perosi will of course be the

telling how Plus X. has only a nick

Washing Away the World.

An interesting calculation has
been made public by the French
Academy Of Sciences. 1t is to the
effect that, taking into considera-
ton the wear and tear on the solid
land by the ocean lashing, river ero-
sion and wind and weather, the
world will by the end of the year
100000 be completely washed
away, and the ocean will roll over
the present foundations of our great

politician who was disposed to
"graft." Mr.. Anthony was about

wants TO work it for all it is worth"

Here's a good story told about
Lady Colebrooke, that prominent
Englishwoman who visited the
Whitneys last winter. Lady Cole
brooke is of the well known Paget
family. Lord Colebrooke's ances-
tors are equally aristocratic, and the
Colebrooke crest is a rampant lion,
three doves over the head and a
wolf couchant above all. 1t is an
elaborate affair. When Lady Cole
brooke was dining out with one OF
the opulent' hostesses of Long Island
she glanced casually at the dinner
service, every bit of which was duly
embossed Nth crest. She was ac-
customed to heraldic china and did
not at once inspect the design mi

her great surprise, she became aware
that the Colebrooke crest was upon

"Where did you get this crest ?" she
exclaimed impulsively. The hostess

little doves, l think, are so full Of

and large cellar had been entirely

started is not known. The building
had not been occupied tor some
months past, and no tracks OF man
or beast could be found anywhere
about the premises. The weather
was fearfully hot last Saturday,

that some combustible material in

ORDER GRANTED
Miller Lux are Issued a Temporary In.
junction.

Last Monday, in Carson, before
Judge Hawley, in the United States
District Court, an order was granted
Miller & Lux for water enough to
maintain their stock, says the Car
son Appeal. The firm asked for 20
feet of water, but the Court did not
grant that amount as the case was
purely one of an injunction variety,
and not question of priority. He
granted what is equal to four feet of
water, which order is to hold until
the 18th of November next, when
the merits of the case will come to
issue. The decision seems to meet
the approval of all the contending
people in the case, even the lawyers
for the defense being pleased with
the result. Miller 4 Lux, through
their attorneys, claimed that at the
home ranch at the present time it is
necessary to pump water for the en-
tire herd of cattle to prevent the an
imals from dying of thirst, and that
they are entitled to enough water
for their stock. The Judge evident
ly thought likewise and granted the
temporary injunction. The strange
feature of the case is that some of
the farmers who have been enjo1ned
are as busily engaged in pumping
water for their cattle as Miller &
Lux are for theirs.
