THE AIRSHIP GLIDE
 IS REAL CANDY
(special from United Press.


 Chicago, June 7.-The "Airship Glide" is the latest thing in the waltz and two-step line, introduced at the convention here of the United Pro- fessional Teachers of Dancing. Pro lessor J. c. Bush, who teaches the young idea of Connersville, Indiana, how to trip the light fantastic, has invented the new dance,and in speak ing of it he said today:
 People hop too much when danc- ing. They should glide. They wiggle and wobb1e too frequently when they should float along on an even keel, SO to speak. They work themselves into violent precipitation when they should take things coolly and aviate. ,"In this Dang De L'Aviator' or 'Airship Glide there is no hopping, galloping, wobb1ing or perspiring. The couple give the effect of not touching the floor at all. They glide over it in long, graceful swoops. It is the real candy"
 The convention adopted Professor BusTs new dance with enthusiasm and will spread it throughout the country.

EMPTY TROLLEY
 CAR JUMPS TRACK

Oak street car No. 237 jumped the rails at Main and Congress streets at 10 this morning rounding the curve to climb Congress street hill. There were no passengers aboard. The car was replaced without calling out the wrecking crew. Yesterday a car left the tracks at the same place. The cars are using but one line on the hill at present, owing to excavation work by the Hydraulic Co.,, and the fact that they are running slowly over where the street is torn up doubtless prevented what might have heen a serious wreck.
