III WAVE MEKE."
Svscefui and Refined Dance Per-
formed by Fijian Maidens.


"The Fijian natives call their dances
mekes.' and the best of them all is the
wave meke, +" says a traveller who has
witnessed these graceful evolutions.
"a lot of pretty girls, in two or three
rows, act the movements of the sea as
1t rolls in upon the reefs.
First of all, they bend down in uni.
son and sweep the ground slowly with
their hands, waving their fingers In or
der to represent the little wavelets
fecked by the wind. Then they sway
their bodies TO and fro to show the long
roll of the tropical wave, and presently
their figures rise and fall as do the
breakers. The action Of the dance be
comes more and more violent. The
wave is dashing up the barrier reef.
The girls spring forward and clap theif
hands and then drop to the ground
with a long musical cry. The wave
has surmounted the reef and emptfed
itself into the CLASSY lagoon. The dance
is over.
Every movement of the wave
meke' is graceful and refined. The best
ballet girls in your American theaters
are not better trained than these young
Eijlan maidens, who spend a good half
of their happy, careless, lazy lives
dancing their 'mekes' or playing In the
surf. There are no finer dancers in the
world. Nearly all their ballets describe
the scenes around them or the Incl.
dents of their daily life. Other 'mekes'
picture the palms swaying in the
breeze, the canoes tossing in a gale and
the clouds sailing across the sky"

The Great Wallace Show, so appro-

arrangements for its exhibition in
Union City on Thursday, Oct 30.
The Wallace Show has been re-
organized this year, and scores of new
novelties and features will be seen for
the first time in this country under
the Wallace tents this season.
The Omaha Bee said: owe have
been reading lately many compliment
airy comments on the greatly increased
size and unquestioned merit of the
newly equipped Great Wallace Shows,
now touring the West, but were
agreeably surprised to-day, first by the
magnitude of the show as whole, as
it came in sections on its elegantly
constructed trains, and again, by its
stupendOus, clean and novel parade.
show never presented a more gor-
geous pageant. We visited the
grounds later on a business errand
and again met surprise. The show
is absolutely new throughout, and
covers not only the entire show lot,
but all the streets surrounding them.
The tents at the afternoon perform

the circus programme, for novelty,

Echos from the Union City Bushes!
College.

Every week brings in some new
pupils for our enterprising home
institution, the Union City Bust
ness College. Up to this time the
majority of the patronage has been
from Union City alone, but pupils
are now beginning to come in
from outside territory and some
are in attendance from various
points in this and surrounding
counties at this time.
The telegraphic department has
been fitted up thoroughly and en-
larged by the addition of fifteen
office stations with instruments at
tached. The work in every de-
partment is in most fourishing
condition. The class work is pro-
crossing nicely in every branch of
business and the benefit derived
from the work in penmanship and
rapid calculation alone would be
sufficient to justify the time and
money spent in taking course in
this splendid institution. All who
have visited the college since its
organization have expressed them
selves as much pleased and agreea-
bly, surprised at the character of
work we are doing. All agree
that it has more the bearing and
appearance of an old established
institution than of the young insti-
tuition that it is, having opened its
doors to the public only few
weeks ago. Every citizen of IN
ion City and Obion County should
take the pains to visit this splendid
institution and witness the excellent
work it is doing for the young peo-
pie of this and surrounding com.
munities. The classes in book.
keeping are making splendid pro,
gress, all of whom are much pleas
ed with the practical system taught
here. Visitors are welcome al
any time.

whiskeyused to be sold great crowds
gather until there is not standing
room. During the fair and on pub
lie days the crowds gathering in
these rooms where cold drinks are
said to be sold are unusually large.
Now, it is a little strange they do
not crowd in other places where cold
drinks are sold, and we sometimes
wonder if red hot drinks are not
sold We would like to modestly
call the attention of the christian
temperance people to this fact, and
ask them to take notes for future
use. 1t is a wonderful opportunity
tor a man behind the law to make
for himself a record-and he is

one of the most interesting of which
was one that came as a great sur
prise from Mr.. Johnson, a Ur ion
soldier and a citizen of Rlves and
one of the proprietors of the Roller

old soldier is passing out year by

Her husband passed through here some
weeks ago.
During the long residence of Minister
WI in Washington his wife was a gem
eral favorite in society. While accept
ing American customs in mixing freely
with her acquaintance and entertain
ing on scale almost as lavish she did
not affect any attire except that of her
native land, and her rich customes worn
on different state occasions attracted
general comment.
AS tactful hostess Madame WI did
much to second the popularity of her
husband. She will join him in Picking
and will doubtless be a valuable aid in
the work of breaking up caste preju-
dices which now exist in China.

FARMERS SOCIETY PAU.

The Hawaiian Agricultural society
has passed out of existence, the Farm
er's Institute having taken up the work
for which the society was organized
At a meeting called for last night only
two or three members showed up. and
it was decided that the best thing to
do was to turn over what money re-
mains in the hands of j. f. Higgens,
treasurer, to the Farmers Institute
The society was formed about two
years ago, and started well. but the
activity of the institute made its ex-
istence unnecessary. Allen Herbert
was chairman.
