Una persona, quien por nae

Mientras descendian al hoyo,
sentian que ell cab aumentaba
a cada moment6, hasta que al
fin ell visitante dijo: 'De veras!
que calor tan terrible; icuanto
distara al inferno?" al cual
nuestro minero respondlo seri-

Wane of the Waltz

From the Seattle Posr-Intelligencer.
 The cry has gone forth that the age of dancing is soon to be reckoned with the stone age and other periods now alluded to not as pastime. Many reasons have been advanced for this disuse of what was once looked upon as a great pleasure in days of yore some people depended upon dancing for much of their physical exercise As the German prince said to the lady in ringlets when she blushing- ly spoke of his seeming excited joy in dancing. "Oh, miss the doctor has or dered it. and I dance to perspire." Now adays the tennis court the gold links. the bicycle and the motor car will give any man or woman all the exercise neces- sary In past days Shere were such be- ings as chaperons, and many a man and maid owed their pleasant roeetings to the dance, when in between times, the quiet corner. the hidden stairway or behind some friendly screen, soft wvtds were ut- tered and whispered "yes" became the herald of the orargle tlossom. Chaperons became less and less fin evidence. and thus the use of the dance, tho ntervalled tete-a-tete and the allowed pleasures of the waltz give place to the licensed joys of outdoor sports, where the earth and the fullness thereof are for the man and the maid.

ends about this way: "But she couldn't cook a bit" Or 1t recites her athletic prowess, her tennis cups, her medals and honorable mention, and then saws off with something like this:
 But her waist, alack, was buttoned down the back"
 To denounce an evil intelligently 1t is necessary to trace 1t to It's source. The poetic fashion which we have mentioned is a hybrid from two originals. The first of these Is that sterling poem. "Old Grimes is Dead" We quote two stanzas:
 "Old Grimes is dead. that good old man,
 We ne'er shall see him more;
 He used to wear a long black coat
 All buttoned down before.
 He lived at peace with all mankind,
 In friendship he was true;
 His coat had pocket holes behind,
 His pantaloons were blue"
 Here the irrelevant humor unmasks in the second half of each stanza where the modern type holds it's facetious fire until | the final line It gets this tip from the patent medicine reading notices, which sound like interesting anecdotal critical or literary matter until the third line from the end, when 1t is divulged that Some bodys pills are world renowned. These notices are like a serpent with a sting in it's tail.
 The practical objection to the poetic form we have discussed is that newspaper readers have become sophisticated. They turn to the last line first. as instinctively as the reader of a letter first looks at the signature. The sense of surprise has been lost. Beyond that, we should hate to

Moving a Whole Town.
From the New York Post.

From the New York Post.
 Quite as melancholy as the moss-grown ruins of older civilizations are the frame built boom" towns of the west, located where the railroad was once expected to go, but did not. From one of those deso- late spectacles. however, western ingenu- ity has happily saved us. At the opening of the Rosebud reservation lands in South Dakota two years ago towns were planted at once all over the new region, so that whichever way the railroad might choose for reaching Bonesteel, one or another of them would be sure to intercept 1t. Thus of the rival towns of Dallas and Gregory, 1t was Gregory which got the railroad Dallas, instead of reconciling itself to the usual lingering death or feeble survival, planned to join forces with Gregory. The prairie is level. There were horses, wind lasses and rollers to be had, and the build ings of the town were actually dragged in procession to the new site.

 We desire to enter a word of protest against certain tendency in American humor which we have had under observa- tion for thte last eleven years. There is danger that it will lead our lyrical humor into a cul de sac. Indeed, 1t Is pretty near there already.
 The tendency Is Illustrated by the poems published daily in about 35 of our contem- poraries. We refrain from citing in- stances and content ourselves by de- scribing the type, assured that every read CT will find it familiar, if not vulgar. The humorous stanzas, to take an instance, will begin with a sober and pseudo -sent- mental catalogue of the charms of some young person-her eyes, her lips. her shape. her conversation; the very last line

Millions In the Land.

"I wish owned a couple of acres of the land now, in which case I would not be writing autobiographies for a living. My fathers dying charge was Cling to the land and walt; let nothing beguile 1t away from you My mothers favorite cousin, James Hampton, who figures in The Gild- ed Age as Colonel Sellers, always said of that land--and said 1t with blazing en- thusiasm, too-Thefe's millions in it- mllionsv
 "It is true that he always said that about everything-and was always mista- ken. too; but this time he was right which shows that man who goes around with prophecy gun ought never to get discouraged; if he will keep up his heart and fire at everything he sees he Is bound to hit something by and by.
 Many persons regarded Colonel Sellers as a fiction. an invention. an extravagant impossbility, and did me the honor to call him a 'creation;' but they were mis- taken. I merely put him on paper as he was; he was not person who could be exaggerated. The incidents which looked most extravagant both in the book and on the stage were not inventions of mine, but were facts of his life and was pres ent when they were developed
 "John T. Raymond's audiences used to come near to dying with laughter over the turnp-eating scene: but, extravagant as the scene was. 1t was faithful to the facts Tn all Us aDSuru details. The tnlnS happened fin Lampton's own house, and I was present In fact. I was myself the guest who ate the turnips.
 "In the hands of a great actor that pit eous scene would have dimmed any man. ly spectators eyes with tears and racked his ribs apart with laughter at the same time. But Raymond was great In humor- ous portrayal only. In that he was su- perb--he was wonderful-in a word, great; in all things else he was a pygmy of the pygmies.
 "The real Colonel Sellers, as knew him in James Hampton, was a pathetic and beautiful spirit a manly man, straight and honorable man, a man with big, foolish. unselhsh heart in his bosom man born to be loved. And he was loved by all his friends. and by his family wor- shipped It Is the right word. To them he was but little less than god.
 '"The real Colonel Sellers was never on the stage. Only half of him was there. Raymond could not play the other half of him; it was above his level. There was only one man who could have played the whole of Colonel Sellers. and that was Frank Mayo
