The Sank Center Avalanche gives
the following rather strong views on
dancing:
Dancing is too tiresome. Men and
woman like to dan &c just to hug and
be Rugged. What would the average
wife say it she caught hsr husband
sitting beside lady with his arm
encircling her waist, her left hand on
his shoulder, and her head resting
lovingly on his BOSOM. Why, she'd
get an axe. But it's a-dandy idea. 1t
beats galloping a mile to get a hug.
There is nc more harm in sitting on a
nice easy sofa to do the hug ACT than
there Is in strutting around the room
and squeezing every time a corner is
turned, at the same time endeavoring
to keep step to the music. Besides it
isn't 80 tiresome. 60 I.%s:.- ...:-.z

John Neeter, the weIl known road
master for the Northern Pacific. who
has had his headquarters in Little
Falls for many years. received notice
Saturday morning from superinten-
dent M. M. Fowler that he had been
promoted to the responsible position
of trainmaster for the Red River d.
vision of the Northorn Pacific. to sue,
coed c. W. Huston. The transfer
took effect August 25th. and the head
quarters are East Grand Forks.
Mr.. Fowler's notice was rather q
surprise to Mr.. Nester. The recogni.
tion of his long, faithful and efficient
service was certainly merited. Mr..
Nester's friends will regret his DEPART
ure from the city, but wish him all
possible success and prosperity in his
new field of labor.
The position to which Nh. Nester
has been appointed covers the N. P.
system from Winnipeg junction to
Pembina, and includes about $50
miles of track. It is known as the
Red River division. The duties of
the position sre practically those
which used t" be performed by the
assistant division uperintendent, an
Office now abolished. The trainmas-
ter directs the running OF trains, and
the position is very responsible one.
Mr.. Nester entered the service of
the Northern Pacific more than TWEEN
ty,dve years ago as brakeman, after
having worked under his father, who
was section foreman on the BalCi-
more & Ohio road. In less than two
years Mr.. Nester became freight
conductor, and for years had charge
of cons truction train. He has had
a large and varied experience in sew
eral branches of road work, and is
particularly fitted for the new posi-
tion. The next step higher will be

Nc Strongest Soldier.

From recent medical inquiry
into the physical status of the
various classes of military il
was found that the low sized.
brOad-chested artillerymen were
the strongest and healthiest in
the service. On the other hand.
the tall men of the guards had
the disease tendencies of the
OVergrOwn, and consumption and
other pulmonary troubles were
nOticeably common. When mar
rOw-chested. the men of the
guards and heavy cavalry very
soon broke down. Indeed. the
bulk Of the medical evidence
seemed TO show that the small,
well-set men-the typical At
kinses-were the ideal soldiers,
though not so imposing or mar
tial-lOOking as the gigantic
guards.

shoes at White House Recep-

The veteran senator from Mis-
souri,, Mr.. COckrcI. is nothing if
not rcSourccful. This was dem
onSuatpd the other evening on
the occasion Of the last public re
ception at the white house. SAYS
the Washington Post.
Mr.. Cockrcll approached that
important function through the
long tunnel which has it's en-
trance just opposite the west
side of the treasury. But as he
shed his outer garments at the
entrance he forgot about the
heavy Oyershoes that encased his
patent feathers and protected his
extremities from the severe cold.
Not until he had proceeded by
easy and prolonged stages past
the portraits and waving palms
and began to climb the stone
staircase, where the sound Of the
spirited music burst upon his ear,
did the MissOurian become
aware that he was unnecessarily
encountered.
OF course, the press was great.
1t always is in the professions
into the white house on such pub
lie occasions. To turn back and
deposit his superhuOus fOOtgear
with the polite attendants where
crowds surge in might have been
well enough but for losing ones
place in the line. An hours time
would have been dissipated.
Therefore, Mr.. Cockrell re.
moved the OvershOes, and, lean.
ing over the stout rope, placed
them close against the wall on
the side of the staircase not occu.
pied by the arriving guests. Into
one of them he gracefully
dropped his calling card. Then
he resumed his steady march
along the sinuous route to the
east room. Many a curious spec,
tator looked into the cavernOus
Oriice at the tiny bit of paste,
board, but the OvershOes were
undisturbed, and Senator Cock
rell found them there an hour
later as he proceeded to the
white house exit.

! oIRL,s DARING REscUE.
Brittany Has Grace Darling--Saves
Three Boat-Loads of Men at
Imminent Risk.

A real Grace Darling is about 10
be awarded medal for saving not
only one but three bOatlOads of
men on the coast of Brittany. In
the very narrow community in
which she fishes and assists her
father on his little farm this hero
inc is known as Rose Here.
Early on the 18th Of November
Rose Here went to the rocks near
the Pyramide du Runiou to gath
er shellfish. The night, "A very
stormy one. had been followed by
a heavy fog, which was just be
ginning to lift. Through the fog
this fisher girl heard the cries of
men. The Breton coast at this
point is exceedingly rocky and is
swept by speedy currents, which
speedily carry death to persons
not accustomed to their wiles.
Rose Here knew this. She
calmly waited until the fog was
high enough to disclose the men in
danger. Away in the distance lay
the English steamship Vesper;
between it and the shore lay
three boats. She put out in a
small boat and after hard work
reached the nearest of the three.
This Grace Darling could not
speak English; neither could the
boats crew understand French,
but she mOtiOned the man away
from the tiller and took his place.
ashore was a scant half mile. but
THE distance, as the crow flies,
the boat that Rose Here steered
that day, with the others trailing
close behind, travelled four
leagues as it wound it's tOrtuOus
way through the reefs and past
lurking shoals. Many times the
men, exhausted, were compelled
TO cease rowing and rest.
Not until the dOry had grated
against the wharf at Pen-ar-ROch,
where a hundred hands reached
out to succOr the fainting men, did
she relinquish her place at the
filler. Then she set to work to as
sist in restoring the weakest of
the sailors.
Capt. Viel, of the Vesper, barred
his head to the brave woman and
expressed his regret that he was
unable TO recOmpense he out Of his
scant savings from the wreck.
But he assured her that the Brit
ish government, as well as the
shipOwners, would hear of her and
that she, in all probability, would
hear from them.
ooh, it is nothing" said Rose
Here, through an interpreter, as
she started upon the long walk
home. II have saved more men
than you had on your big ship"
That is true" assented the ma
tives. "Shc has brought dozen
or more lost boats into this port.
She is a wonderful woman"

PEsSlMISM IN MODERN ART
An Exhibit of Paintings in New York
Presents Only the Darker
Side of Life.

There must be something in
modern art as in modern litera-
ings by a number of young New
labor in the field to take gloomy
views of life, says the Indianap-
oils Journal. An exhibit of paint
ings by number of yOnug New
York artists draws out this com
ment from a writer in a paper OF
that city:
Decidedly these artists have
an outlook where nature is seen
under her most lugubriOus mood,
where jOyOusness never enters,
where flesh and blood are almost
at the vanishing point, and where
unhealthiness prevails to an
alarming extent. 4 visit to the
rooms will chastcn the spectator.
If he comes with the slightest
optimism concealed about his per
son he will retire entirely Invested
of any such foolish hOpefulness.
Here are the dreary, the sad and
the bitter. The commonplace
mortal might attribute these
things to Indigestion. Whatever
it is that cOmpels these young
men TO look on life with such pes-
simism we may not say, but here
surely the times are out of Joint
and man, it must be admitted, is
vile indeed, as these artists see
him"
\ certain portrait the writer
designates as caricature pure and
simple - utterly meaningless"
OF a picture called "The Prize
fighter" it is said that 1T bears
no resemblance to humanity that
we know off, and a Girl at the
Sewing Machine" is said to resem-
bic an animated corpse. In the ef-
fort to follow the methods of a
certain great artist it is asserted
that these young men "haye taken
the short cut and failed to find the
patch" In their effort for sim
plicity they secure emptiness; in
the search for tOnal qualities only
mOnOtOny results. and the per
sOnal note is sadly missing. Rare
ly are these men themselves less
frequently are they interesting.
On the whole, it would seem that
these artists should withdraw
their canvases and try again. But
doubtless they will regard the
criticisms as philistinism I'M.
worthy Of notice. Your modern
artist is a man very much set in
his ways and without much regard
for the opinions of the public.
