Ghaison Neighborhood House, situated in North Dallas, down in the poor district. They live in a simple. wholesome way, giving daily object lesson to their neigh borsti Not as teachers-they do not take this attitude, but that of neighDors and friends and often learn valuable lessons themselves from their humble neighbors. They follow no dogma, nor creed, save that of the eternal brotherhood of man; doing unto others as they would have others do unto them. They simply strive to make themselves and others members of community where love reigns su- preme.
 The work has several branches, one of the most interesting being the cooking classes. The children are taught food values and how to prepare a well-bilaneed meal; and many a father has been cured of drunkenness by having in his lunch basket such a meal that the stomach eraved nothing more. Graham Taylor says of the cooking school: 'This Is my gold cure for drunkenness"

NARROW ESCAPE OF
 CHILD FROM DEATH
Five Year Old Baby Falls Under Wheel of Buggy In Front
 of Railroad Depot,

One of the dangers of allowing chil- dren to play around the local railroad depot was forcibly brought to the at- tention of one mother yesterday after- noon. when Louis Geonto, aged ! years. was run over and narrowly es- capped serious injury.
 Mrs. Jay Hale, was driving down Railroad avenue last evening abou; 5:45. and had reached a point almost directly opposite Fletcher & Woods stable, when she had to turn out of the way of a stage coming from the other direction. She turned, and just at that moment saw the upturned face of a little child lying directly Tn the path of the wheels of the buggy. She screamed. and endeavored to stop the horse. which was going at mod crate gate, but the wheel had already come in contact with the little fel- lows face, and luckily just at this lime the child wriggled out of the way of danger.
 A crowd of bystanders immediately carried the child, screaming yocifer- I ously to the c. & A. dispensary, and Mrs. Hale leaving her buggy became hysterical and followed the child to the doctors office to find out if he was seriously hurt.
 An examination disclosed the fac: that the little fellow has only been scratched around the face. It is customary for these small chill dren to play about the railroad depo. and the greatest wonder seems to bt that fatal accident has not as yet resulted.

DANCE IS 4 GREAT
 SUCCESS
Very Nearly 800 People Attend Subscription Dance Given By Arab Patrol of Fl Zaribah Temple,

The dance given al thu opera hcusa last evening by the members of the Arab Patrcl of Fl zarEbah Temple of the Mystic Shrine was probably tho most brilliant social function Of the present season which is fast drawing to close. The music was furnished by Newman's well known orchestra and this musical organization lent much to the enjoyment of the even ing.
 Promptly at s:45 the orchestra started to play the first dance and al tnls time there were probably two hundred couples present. and others dropped in from that time until 10 o'clock. when the number present was probably 450.
 The opera hous evas decorated with the coiors of the Mystic Shrine, and a large American flag forming a cur tain for the stage.
 At the conclusion of each dance throughout the program -h- o-ches- tra was forced to play an apco-e. and in several instances two encores for the same dance. Everyone present seemed to enter into the spirit of the occasion. and enjoy themselves most heartily. until very nearly 2 o'clock when the last dance was played.
 A number of young ladies and gen tlemen-Sixteen in all-arrived in the city on the afternoon train from Douglas, and attended the dance fast evening.
 An intermission was had after tho twelfth dance. and Sam Newman leader of the orchestra rendered I solo on the violin. which was but another evidence Of the wonderful talent of that gifted musician. He was forced to respond to an encore and even at the conclusion of this the audience again endeayored 10 have him play another selection, but o@ins to the Iateness Of the hour he asked to be excused.
 Al the conclusion Of the evening" entertainment the committee on ar rangemcnts stated that the affair had been a financial success beyond what they had expected. and that the pro- ceeds would practically cover all oi inc expenses Of the local contingent of the Fl Zaribah platoon, in going ta Los Angeles to attend tho annual con claye of the Imperial Council

That there Is a difference of opil- ion among the business ren Of the city in regard 10 the sdvisaei.tty or gy<iutng to the Warren Company a Street railway franchise 70 operate a car line over certain streets in the city is evident from the interviews expressed yesterday to Review re pCt.er by sone of she prominen, meh of affairs.
 At the regular meeting of the city council on last Tuesday evening J. M. O'Connen, representing the Warren Company, asked for franchise to op- crate a street railway for certain distance within the corporate limits of the City of Bisbee. In the pro l.osed ordinance the route set forth was as follows: To strike Naco roao al a point I150 feet east of the inter- section of Naco road and Brewery ave nue. which would be about at the upper end of the slag dump. to run up Naco road to Railroad avenue. across the plaza and over the subway be tween the Copper Queen store and the
 Copper Queen general offices 10 the Bank of Bisbee building and thence west to the corporate limits of the cllN m tiOut OA lut nov AAoANtJ ing.
 The matter was not sonc into by tbe council at the regular meeting be cause of the fact that O'Connell was nor in a position to accede to certain demands which the councllmen stated they would make conditional to the granting of a franchise. and for thai reason the meeting was adjourned 1n' til next Thursday evening, when l.. w Powell, president of the Warren UoiI- pany was present and discussed the natter with the council.
 After going into the matter from all sides the council instructed the city attorney to draw up the statutory res- olution in regard to the holding oi an election on the proposition. ana adjourned to meet next Monday even ing. at which time the matter will De discussed again.
 Yesterday the Review interviewed a number of business men on the prop ositlon and although a number favored the plan of granting the company franchise, to come into. the city uJ way of Naco road. there were others
