The Dancer.

His little slanting eyes followed the
butterfly movements of Lan-Tin here
and there, the free toss of her little
head and the graceful abandon Of her
arms as she flung them over her head,
and again brought them down with a
sweeping bend to the very ground.
Lan-Tin forgot the mandarin and all
his regal magnificence. She was play
ing a pretty little game Of make-be-
lieve. She was the wind blowing
through the plum tree. Tossing and
twirling, bending low as did the droop
ing branches. waving slowly, rushing
fiercely like tiny whirlwind With
flushed cheeks and glowing eyes she
was the spirit of the wind.
Then funny thing happened.
From outside the windows that opened
on the perfumed Chinese night came
the sound of loud hand-clapping and
deep, strange voice shouting 'Braval'
She dropped down on cushion,
no longer a wind fairy, but little
wilted flower. From "The Tale OF
Little Lan-Tin,' by Flo Hingler.

Several times this week runaors
have been current of the mysterious

delight in chasing young girls and
women on the south side, on Fifth
street, or nearby that thoroughfare.

seriously and pursued a short investi-

relating the story said that the police

strange negro unidentified had been
doing unaccountable things. but had
committed no serious overt act.

matter was much talked about in the
vicinity of the occurrences on the
south side, a Gate City representative
learned that at least three evenings
last week the peace of the community
had been much disturbed over the mat

GoIlmar Brothers Shows.

Nearly all the great cities in the
country possess public menageries
which constantly buy wild animals;
quixotic individuals frequently buy
cubs of one kind or another, ranging
from tigers to bears, many wealthy
Americans maintain private zoologi-
cal parks of greater or less extent, and
the score of large circus companies
must be constantly supplied because
of the high death rate among their
animals. The record of imports of the
Gollmar Brothers shows for the past
year is elephants, camels, tigers, lions,
leopards. pumas, panthers and any
number of small animals and birds.
