GET TAX LEGISLATION.

Rhode Island Assembly.

PROVIDENCE. r. l., May 1.-THE

ditional taxation legislation adopted.
The failure of the Legislature to pass
the desired measure is expected to re-
suit either in the vetoin- by the gov

bills. or h calling of a special session
to act on the tax measures.
The Assembly appropriated, accord
ing to the Governors figures, nearly
half a million dollars more than the
established revenue of the State.

DANCE MAKES PARIS Gasp.

Paris is startled by new dance. Il
must be something extraordinary, Tor
Paris has seen every form OF dance
known to ancients or moderns.
Mile. Regina Badet has succeeded IN
getting Paris 10 talk about the dance
She does nightly ri the Theatre Antoine
in play known rs La Femme ct lie
Pantin" (The Woman and the Jump
ing Jack. For more than = month
the little playhouse the great Antoine
made famous has beer crowded 10 It's
capacity. One must get. tickets many
days in advance 10 be sure OF seat
and ali because Regina Badet has ap-
peared in costume that has made
Paris gasp.
Soon after the first performance OF
tue play police emissaries solennly
watched Mile. Badet's performance,
then decided that it was within the Law
"a decision Mile. Badet's press agent
employed with profitable effect, The
police reasoned that ii they paid no
further attention 10 the dance the pub
lie would soon tire OF it. As matter
of fact the dance is no worse than the
ive-act play, which tells how wealthy,
blase man tries to win q girl who, al
though the companion of-notorious
women, is pure from mere caprice.
The scene Of the dance is All all-night
cafe in Seville. The heroine (Mlle.
Badet) is employed there as dancer,
and she is called upon to rehearse
new dance, There is nothing new,
however, about the dance except the
costume, which is SO fashioned that the
daucer's left side is bare to the waist.
The rest OF the costume consists OF long
black stockings.
It is to see Mile Bal.et. who made
her first reputation as dancer 1T the
Opera in the costume, that Paris iuns
eagerly to the Theatre Antoine. The
success OF the play and dance has beeu
entirely a success of curiosity, After il
is over people wonder Why they went,
and there is the unpleasant feeling that
in some why they have not had their
moneys worth.
1t has been observed that Americans
make UP goodly portion OF the All
dicnce5.
