JAPANESE DANCES.
rhey Are Not Highly Amusing and
Arc Not IndeIlcnte.

The form of amusement of a dra-
u,atIc nature that most interests the
traveller In japan Ia the geIsha dance,
also the kagura. or common religious
dance. and the adzuma- mai, a religious
dance performed In the ancient Shlmo-
Gamo Shinto temple near Kyoto.
These dances are not particularly
amusing to witness. though all sights
II the kind are more or less amusing
when witnessed for the first time. The
best geisha dancing takes place In
kioto, the next best I'm Tokyo, but so
called geisl,a dances may be seen In
seyeral of the large towns.
Almost, more interesting to see, how.
ever. are the religious dances. In the
kagura. for instance. the dancer usual.
" wears loose white chemlse gar.
ment. a pair Of Tapping trousers, gen
orally Of bright red color, and long,
transparent covering formed like n
cloak and Ornamented with designs re.
sembling crests. Her hair hnngs down
her back IN a single tress flowers adorn
her forehead, aud her face is besmeared
with white compound, said to consist
chiefly of white lead. In her hand she
holds bunch OF small bells that Is not
unlike child's toy. This she shakes at
intervals during the dance. Sometimes
several girls dance Mt one time, but In
every case their movements are accom-
panied by a mournfuI. sacred chant
and by tune played upon drum and
flute by priests. 1t Is wrong to sup
pose, however, as many Europeans
who have visited Japan do suppose.
that the mikakoodori dance Is indecent.
About the genuine gelsha dance there
Is nothing even ,indelicate or sugges-
tive,lSt. James Gazette.

1.-The Old Guard" Defunct. 010

The Newark Advertiser, a paper re-
puted as being owned 10y e. Senator
James Smith in Newark, in speaking of
the effort made last week in Newark to
revitalize the Democratic party in New
Jersey says: eff the Democratic party
in New Jersey is ever to be ~rejuvenated
and restored to power the Old Guard
will do the work. The Old Guard eth
er stayed at home on election day or
voted for Mckinley and the gold stand
ard"
Well, the Old Guard run the cam
paign in 1904, and left the party in the
worst slough of despair in its history.
When the party was defeated in 1896
and 1900 it went to defeat, but it had
honor and principal left to fight for.
The defeat Of 1904 left it without eth
er. The sooner the Old Guard is dead
and buried the better it will be for the
Democratic party.
The election for Mayor of New York
City last fall proves it, and the election
in this State and especially in Essex
county last fall and the action of the
legislature this year confirms it.
John M. PatJison who was elected
Governor of Ohio last fall was faithful
to Bryan in 1896, and no more enthus-
iastic speaker stumped Pennsylvania
for Mr.. Bryan in 1896, than VIM. H.
Berry who was elected treasurer of
Pennsylvania last fall.
Where in the nation has a member of
the Old Guard eve been elected to a
commanding position since 1896. Where
is there one when in office who even did
anything for the peoples interest?

Supreme Court and Trusts.

From The New York World, March IA.
Immunity from prosecution for the
individual witness, declares the United
States Supreme Court in the Paper and
Tobacco cases, is thing: immunity
for the corporation he may represent is
something entirely different. Neither
act of Congress nor the common law as
sures him the privilege of silence or
suppression. He cannot be forced to
incriminate himself, but he can be fore
ed to incriminate the corporation whose
agent or %mouthpiece he is. Protection
is guaranteed to the Trust officer, but
he can employ no pretext to guarantee
protection to the Trust.
The decision is one of tremendous
import. By n sweep of the hand the
Supreme Court has demolished the
carefully reared defense works from be-
hind which the Trusts and the rail-
roads have defied judicial investigation.
The Anti Trust act and the Interstate
Commerce act acquire new vigor and
meaning. Courts and Grand Juries
will no longer be left at the mercy of a
recalcitrant witness who may see fit to
magnify his own person into a shield
for a law-breaking corporation.

The Republicans in the present legis-
lature have surely stolen much demo-
cratic thunder and enacted some popu-
listic% principals into law. Through the
conservatism of leaders who are we'd
ded to corporations the Democratic par
ty has lost a grand opportunity in this
State. Those who have endeavored to
rehabilate the party by giving it princi-
pals to fight for and advocates who be-
lieve in those principals are frowned
down as doctrinaires, socialists and lu-
natics. While the world is moving on
the Democracy of New Jersey is chloro-
formed by those leaders who find it
o profitable to be corporation at
torneys than advocates of the peoples
interests.

Placing the railroad rate bill In the
hands of Senator Tillman marks tn
first time in our history that the fight
for an administration measure has been
led by the leader of the minority party
and must depend on the votes of the
minority for passage. This confirms
that the railway rate question is good
Democratic doctrine, and is Democratic
thunder stolen by the Republicans to
make them popular with the people. In
fact the Republicans have never declar-
ed for railroad rate regulation in their
national platforms, while the Demo-
Gratis and Populists have.

HIS AUTO
ROMANCE
Q Q o
BY FABIAN CARLETON


Davenport left his machine chug-
chugging at the curb and sprang up
the steps. Two or three of the rocking
chair contingent smiled as they saw
him coming. but Mrs. Neville sat quiet
" in the shady corner where she had
established herself.
"Kittie went over to the lake with
Mr. Thornton" she said as Davenport
approached. Il don't think she under
stood that she had an engagement with
you.'
..She didn't" he admitted ruefully.
Il thought | should have to run up to
town today and said / wouldn't be

1T was only ten minutes ago. You
must have passed them il you have

had brought new machine down it
showed that he meant business. Kittie
Neville was passionately fond of auto
MODELLING. Howard Davenport's had
been the fastest machine on the beach
1t was the auto that first attracted Kit
ties attention. Afterward Howard lik
vor, but Kittie did not wear her heart
upon her sleeve TO be lightly won, and
he was as uncertain as on the first day
that he realized that he loved her.
Now Thornton, with his more power
full machine. might have an opportu-
nifty to make all of the running. He dis
liked Thornton anyway. He was a
braggart and a boor, but he was rich,
and he could have a dozen big ma
chimes If he wanted them.
1t was with sore heart that How
ard headed for the lake, the usual OBJ
jectiye point for pleasure seekers. 1t
was fifteen miles inland, and those who
did not possess autos took the trolley
ride that was one Of the features Of
the seaside resort.
There was d new automobile In the
shed as Davenport ran his car along
side, a huge green thing that suggested
power in every line. Kitties coat lay
on the back seat of the tonneau. IL that
were needed to identify the rival of the
little touring ear in which they had
had such good times, and Davenport
gritted his teeth as he passed 1t on his
way to the porch.
Thornton was there and greeted him
with a boisterous shout as he came up
the steps.
How long did 1t take you to come
out." he bawled. Eve made 1t In
eighteen minutes"
Il did not do as well as that" How
ard admitted 'The road Is heavy aft
er the rains"
II didn't notice IT," Dragged his rival,
s'but then, you see. with my car we can
take any road at top speed Sit down"
He made way for Davenport at the
table with ostentatious courtesy, and
though Howard knew that his only OBJ
iect was to continue his Boosting, he
dropped into the seat beside Kittie.
The frank welcome in her glance re-
assured him somewhat, and in spite Of
Thornton's ponderous dissertations on
the superiority Of the imported car he
was sorry when 1t was time to be start
Ing back II he wished to be in time to
dress for dinner
He had gone perhaps five miles when,
with tremendous footing, Thornton
in the green car dashed past him .Tll
tell them you're coming" he shouted
over bis shoulder as he passed. How
ard WINGED 1t was hard to have vic
tory rubbed in like that The fact that
Kittie was sitting In the tonneau and
not in front was some satisfaction, but
it was with white lips that he threw on
higher speed and started forward.
Half a mile beyond the road turned
sharply. and as he slowed down for
the curve his heart gave leap as he
saw ahead Of him the big green car at
che side of the road partly overturned.
Kittie, looking very white, sat beside
the fence, while Thornton busted him

as Davenport drew up. Il never hare
