ADJUSTMENTS

Airdome Closes. The Airdome
closed last night for this season. It
has been open nearly all summer and
has proved popular place of amuse-
ment, but with the opening of the
Illinois theater which took place last
evening and the fact that the Elite
has been open for several weeks and
the Family theater opened this after
noon, it was thought best by Manager
Taylor to close its doors for the sea-
son. 1t will be opened during the hot
weather next year, according to pres
ent Mans.

James Slaeel, Who Took French
Leave from County Jail.

Getting James B. Slagel, who es-
capped from the county Jail after serv-
ing two weeks out of four months
sentence. will not be an easy matter
for Sheriff Kittilsen. The state of
Iowa will refuse to give the man up
without q requisition from the gov
ernor of this state and the city mar
shall of Cedar Rapids is still holding
him. A petition for requisition papers
was made out this morning and certi-
fed to by States Attorney John K.

sted, and it begins to look as though
the man may be returned to serve out
his sentence after all.

A paper devoted to the doings of so
ciety seeks TO bring the non-dancing
man to confusion by citing the exam
pies Of the great dancers Of the past.
In classical as we'll as Biblical times,
it seems. dancing was not considered
beneath the dignity of the greatest
men. David danced before the ark,
and Socrates and Plato somewhat de-
spised those who could not dance with
ease and grace. The famous sully,
minister TO Henry Nv, was a noted
dancer and so was the notorious Car
dinal Richelieu Why, then, should
the modern young man consider 1t be-
meath his dignity to trip the light fan
