Investigating Child Labor Condi-

A meeting was held at the Van Ness
house, Burlington, Thursday for the
purpose of organizing Vermont sec
ton of the national child labor commit
tee. About 20 persons were present
and a constitution was adopted and an
executive committee appointed to take
charge of the matter of organization.
A meeting of the committee has been
called for November.
o. R. Lovejoy of New York of the
national child labor committee, spoke
at Thursdays meeting.
The national committee has about
5000 members. Several Investigators
have been looking into conditions in
Vermont and they find that it is one of
the best sections of the country in re-
spect to the child labor evil. There is
not adequate legislation, however, and
the Vermont section of the national
committee is organized with a view
to having more stringent legislation
passed.

Praise from the Clergy.

Better than a sermon"-that Is a
remark which has been made time
and time again by clergymen who
have witnessed a performance Of THE
Holy City" the most successful and
the best of all the religious dramas
ever presented upon the English
speaking stage. 1t Is vital, moving
and historically accurate drama deal
ing with the scenes and incidents at
tendants upon the betrayal, death and
resurrection of Christ The scenic
investiture is particularly elaborate.
The scene showing the judgment hall
of the high priest Is a triumph OF the
scene painters art as Is also the de-
piction of the roofs of Jerusalem as
seen from the roof of Herod's palace.
There are nearly dozen scenes in
all, each one of them painted after
patient research and study. The cos
tuning, too, Is rich and varied. The
company presenting the play consists
of nearly two dozen principal players
of talent and artistic worth with a
large number of supernumeraries.
1.-THE Holy City," will be presented
at the Opera House on Monday even

BALLET OF LIGHT.
Miss Fuller Educated the Audience
at the Start by a Lecture and
Samples

| A large audience filled the seats in
the Opera house Saturday night TO see
the Special Extraordinary" La Loie
Fuller and her MUSES.. The aforesaid
audience was not carried into the
stamping ground of shooting stars by
the performance that has been widely
advertised as high on the topmost
pinnacles of the dancing art; rather 1t
may be said that all were pleasantly
bored.
The overture as we'll as all other
musical numbers were excellent; and,
by the way. Skowhegan Is to be con-
graduated upon harboring SO fine an
orchestra as Kendall's.
At about quarter-to-ninet the curtain
dragged lazily up and the stage was
disclosed skirted with beautiful drop
robes and carpeted with anti-splinter
stun that the MUSES. might not get
slivers in their dainty toes. There was
little preliminary skipping just to
encourage the audience to wait little
longer. and then Loie herself came to
the front of the stage. seated herself
In kitchen chair, and opened lee
ture on the Renaissance of classical
dancing. She spoke Familiarity, hei
manner was easy-(so was the audi
ence). She told her eager listeners
that her Muses,-her most amusing
Muses-danced not so much In
rythmic harmony with the orchestral
music as in ethereal cooperation with
the melodies of the spheres, blending
their motions in poetic composition
with the spirit of the moments pas
sion. All understood this we'll enough.
She further remarked that the MUSES.
allowed the spirit of the dance to so
permeate their delicate beings that
they expressed their tender emotions
by movements of fingers, arms, toes,
ears, backs, and all other joints and
portions flexible or movable.

of how her Muses. would catch butter
flies, of how to talk with the birds by
mute eloquence; in short, how to talk
by anatomical motion.
One Berenice Tupper succeeded in
bringing enthusiastic applause from
the audience by showing actual signs
of life, and 1t must be acknowledged
that she Is the most graceful exponent
of the ;.rt of dancing ever seen in the

an alloy of the genuine late presented
through the Metropolitan Opera In
New York. The ballet of light was
good, but in no way extraordinary
we have seen quite as effective light
effects In combination with dancing on
vaudeville circuits. The Muses. were
at times tangled in their draperies as
we'll as their cues, and Miss Fuller
herself showed this off by skillful
management of her own waving
pieces.
