Greeley. portly of figure and some
what shiny as to top OF head, paced
the reception hall meekIy, although
he was beginning to feel too warm in
his overcoat. Ordinarily, after wait
ing SO long for his 1S-year- daugh-
ter, he would have been calling repri-
mands up the stairway. but this was
different
Edith was calmly and deliberately
dressing for the evening. Dances were
an old story to her. Greeley reflected
humbly as alone there in the dimly
lighted hall. he laboriously tried his
waltz step, over and over, counting
one-two- three, one-two-three, under
his breath
Greeley had never learned to dance
in his youth. but now. at the age Of
46, while Mrs. Greeley was visiting her
sister in California, a dancing cpl
demic had swept the neighborhood,
and he was having a severe attack.
The particular class into which he
had been urged by his friend Hallett
was made up of married couples
some of them persons who hadn't
danced for twenty years." but most of
them beginners like Greeley. The
youngest person attending with the
exception of Edith Greeley-who, in
her mothers absence, was dutifully
cooperating with Greeley In his seri-
Gus gambols-was probably 40 years
old. There had been several lessons,
but tonight was the first real dancing
party and the occasion was one of i'm
portance to Greeley.
The truth was that Hallett, ever
since the lessons began, had assumed
an irritating superiority because Of al
legged dancing that he had done years
before. He boosted that it all came
back" to him as soon as he felt his
feet on a waXed floor again, and the
reason this was trying was that Gree
ley suspected him of diligently prac-
ticing twosteps and waltzes in his Of
flee behind locked door for hours ev-
cry day. Perhaps one reason Greeley
suspected this was that he knew what
ne himself was doing In his own pri-
vate Office.
A step sounded on the stairs and
Edith Greeley handed her party cape
to her father.
Aren't you going to wear it, my
dear?" he asked. scarcely recognize
daughter who always jumped to help
him with his overcoat
"Of course, but if you take me to a
dance you must put it on for me-" she
instructed him gently.
only to think, daddy-it's YOUR first
Gancei' she cried, mischievously.
Aren't you excited? I remember was
at mine"
That evening the painstaking capers
of the serious men and women, each
filled with a solemn determination to
frolic, and each well able to see how
absurd every other couple was. must
have given enjoyment to any onlooker
When it was over Greeley considered
the dance a failure. No one had no.
ticed how much better he danced than
Hallett did. Not only this. but once
during the evening when the two men
found themselves together in the
dressing room, Hallett, hopping his
red face and actually putting for
breath, had had the effrontery to

MIR. HENEY AS A CANDIDATE

h.
 That Francis J. Heney would make an energetic district attorney nobody doubts, but that there is a possibility of his election nobody believes. Ac- cording to his own construction of the California primary law, he has not even been nominated and could be put in the field only on the peti- tion of independent voters who ex- pressed no choice at the recent pri- maries.
 There are enough such voters to nominate him by petition, but there would be no possibility of his cleo tion.
 Supposedly nominated on the demo- cratic ticket, though a republican, he led the republican nominee by only 124 votes. As a candidate for the nomination on the republican ticket he was defeated, three to one.
 There was large vote not cast at the primaries, but it is not likely that MT. Heney as an independent candi- date would receive a larger share of it proportionately than the other can didates, otherwise it would have ex- pressed itself in his favor at the pri- maries.

Mysterious airships and aeroplanes are beginning to fly through the darkness of the night in various parts of the country. Nobody knows whence they come or whither they go. Ap- parently they start from nowhere and never land. Perhaps they are the ad- vance couriers of that anticipated comet, due here sometime next win ter or spring. It is clearly absurd to believe that so conspicuous an object as a dirigible balloon, or even an aeroplane capable of carrying two men, could be assembled, inflated, started and handled without attract ing the attention of the omnipresent agents of the newspaper press.

The Rochester Democrat Herald Ob- serves: "The city of Los Angeles Is ambitious to become a seaport. The fact that it is situated twenty five miles from the Pacific and that it would be impossible to move the ocean any further inland would seem to present an insurmOuntable obstacle to eastern eyes. Los Angeles looks at the matter differently, however. It proposes to reach the sea by anneXing the intervening territory. The plan shows how easy it is to do a thing when ycu know how to go about it."

AN ELIOT PRESS SYMPOSIUM.

AN ELIOT PRESS SYMPOSIUM.
 The Literary Digest, which aims tC give, the opinions of the press in z comprehensive and unbiased manner devotes a page in an issue of recent date to extracts from comments ir the religious press on Dr. Charles w Eliots new religion In a general way the journals from which the Di- gest quotes treat the subject con- servatively and endeavor to point out wherein the new religion differs from the faiths which it would supplant
 Perhaps the most interesting of the excerpts, from the standpoint of the general reader, is taken from the Outlook, paper which is supposed to be inclined to treat the new creed with especial kindness. Yet, after promising that it often happens with the preacher that what he affirms is obscured by what he denies. and that his positive message fails of effect btCduSe he Has AilhSieu IL Nltn HIS doubts and disbeliefs," The Outlook says:
 What is obscured in this instance is that at time when men of intel lectual power like Haeckel are de- claring that the creating divinity of the universe is the mobile cosmic ether and that the ultimate fact of life is not a personal God but ami mated atoms.' and when men of the intellectual power like Metchnikoff are declaring that there is no such thing as unselfish service, but that the true spring of all conduct is en- frightened selfishness, man of science, who for forty years has been president of one of the great univer- sities of the world, who has been steadfast and immovable in his ad- vocacy of free research, and who is not theologian and does not even profess to be religious teacher, de- clares that the religion of the future is to be a religion of love to God and service to men,"
 Other religious journals treat the new evangel less gingerly, though in dignified terms, and their comments possess much interest to the inquir- ing layman. The Christian Advocate, of New York, the official organ of the Methodist Episcopal Church, has this to say: Tn place of the old time certainties Dr. Eliot has sup piled the fog of uncertainty, the mist of unreality and the clouds of insta- bility." The Congregationalist and Christian World, of New York, says: ''Et will hold out no hope of future reward for present ills, it will have no consolation. for the broken heart. but by greater skill in healing physi-
