A BUSINESS CHANGE.

On Saturday last. the M'Jphy-
Newcomb Hardware Co. of La lara
purchased II. w. Beers hardware
stock in Antonito. The deal was con-
summated through the Menke & Car
roll Realty Co. In assuming owner
ship of the Antonito concern, J. C.
Lawton, of Antonito takes quite a
slice in the stock of the company
and will be connected with the man
agement of the business. ID. Il.
Newcomb, Jr. wi | come to Antonito
and leave the management of the
company's business at La lara with
his partner, E. J. Murphy. In the
past Mr.. Beers has conducted very
successful business and on'y dis
posed of it in order that he may To-
cate in lower altitude. He will
now probably go to California. In
Csing Mr.. Beers from the business
wcrld and his estimable wife from
the social circles cf Antonito, the
community will be recompensed by
the fact that we gain another ex-
cellent fami in that of Mr.. New
comb.-Antonito Ledger

AERO TWOSTEP GLIDES

Smooth, Graceful Motion Char
acteriZes All Latest Dances

LONDON, July IA smooth, glid-
ing movement characterizes the new
dances, round and square. which have
been awarded prizes during this week
by the British Association of Teachers
of Dancing, and it would seem evident
that the tide of fashion has at last set
in the direction of a more graceful
movement in the ballroom.
The Pembroke" round dance,
created by Mawdith of Bristol is a
charming combination of the mazurka
waltz and old fashioned redowa, and
was awarded first prize in this class.
The aero twostep." winner of the sec
ond prize, is sure to be popular with
its long glissade suggestive of the
sweep of a mOnoplane, while in La
Valliere,' first prize winner among the
square dances, President Chi1js of the
association, has revived much of the
grace and charm of the gavotte and
minuet.
The whole endeavor of the confer
ence,' said the secretary. has been to
abolish romping in the ballroom. and
all the prizes have been awarded to
dances in which horseplay is impos-
sible We have also adopted a new
third figure for the lancers and modi-
fed the fourth, so as to do away with
the swinging movement in which
women were often hurt or had their
dresses torn

side the regiment specially concerned a
deal of amusement has been aroused in
Aldershot by the posting of battalion
orders forbidding nOncommissioned Of
ficers and men of the York and Ian
caster regiment, commanded by Colonel
Dyas. to wax their mustacheS.
Standing alone, such an order would
be enough to excite surprise; but it
does not stand alone. 1t was issued
in conjunction with the following other
orders:
No families are to keep cats in their
quarters without special permission.
All noncommissioned ranks fncIud-
ing officers servants. are. when IN plain
clothes. to raise their hats in camp
when passing an officer in uniform or
in mufti. when known.
Join the York and Lancasters and
be really well brought up" is the or
dinary comment which expresses the
unsympathetic way in which the other
troops regard these orders.
But however extravagant these or
ders may appear when nothing Is
known of their causes. all. except per-
haps those dealing with mustaches and
the salute. are in reality very neees-
sary, and responsible opinion upholds
the colonel even regarding those two.
Blackdown barracks, where the regl-
ment is quartered. consists largely OF

crate foundations.

As he had to go to Dublin to get it

and borrowed 81 in cash. his debt to
the defendant amounting to Sc
The lad paid of this debt out of his
wages until he owed only s2.25. Then
he got an offer of post liz London
hotel at $3.50 a week and his keep"
He asked the defendant FOR a refer
ence, but the latter, 1t was declared,
refused, owing to the remaining debt.
The plaintiff left, but one day the
defendant met him, dragged him into
the shop and demanded the glass eye
there and then. So threatening was
his behavior that the lad took out the
eye and gave it as security for the
$2.25 he owed. On account of the loss
of the eye the boy lost the situation
offered in London.
The Judge said that up to a certain
point the boy had been kindly treated,
or he would award heavier damages.
He gave Judgment for $40 damages
and refused a stay of execution to en-
able the defendant to bring counter
