He slept with an inmate, got up

ZALLAH EXPOSES
ARTISTIC DANCE
Says Ruth st. Denis Is Too
Daring"

ZaIIah, the clever dancer, who Is this
week the stellar attraction at the New
Iyceum, is no rival of either Maude
TAnan or Ruth st. Denis. and for an ex-
tremely good reason.
The police won't let me-" she says.
Zallah declares that the mere name Of
''hIEh art" covers a multitude OF sins,
and otherwise exposed limbs, and that
she is positively barred from going to
the daring extremes which is now per-
mitted in the sacred name of art" and
that burlesque must remain far more
sedafe and dignified than artistic per-
formances," because the police compel 1t
to be so.
There are any number Of fakes per-
petrated on the public in the name OF
art" said ZaIlah. who has been in the
dancing business long enough to know all
angles Of it. The Indian Nautch dance
which Ruth st. Denis gives has just
about one real Indian step in II. The
rest Is all her own invention. a fake.
cleverly done, Of course. but nevertheless
fake. Maude Allan and Gertrude Honf-
man have been far more daring than
any dancer in burlesque. and have prac-
tically been permitted by the authorities
to go as far as they like.
1T is my idea TO bring the highest
class OF Oriental dancing to the bur-
lesque theaters, to get away from that
which is merely vulgar and suggestive.
and convince the public that the highest
terpsichorean art can exist with abso-
luteiy no emphasis upon the sensual side.
/ think my own dance in this show is ar
tistic and Is in no sense vulgar Many
who come down to the burlesque house.
expecting a cheap, low exhibition have
gone away disappointed.
There Is no question whatever. among
those who know dancing. especially bal
let dancing, that the newer art forms in
dancing are largely fakes. Many OF those
before the public have had no real tech
nical training, and know nothing about
the fundamentals of the art"
sZaIlah is not an Oriental girl. despite
her stage name: she Is a hard-working.
talented, vivacious American, full OF am
bition, and proud that she IS at last at
the head Of her own show. II has taken
her ten years to reach her present place
in the show business" and all OF her
laurels have been earned by hard work
Her own show is prospering this sea-
son and she Is one OF the chief attractions
of the Empire circuit.

There was a lulI in the proceedings OF
the Juvenile Court yesterday afternoon.
when the door swung heavily open, and
through the hallway walked a young
man about seventeen, carrying a suit
case The clerk stopped writing. Judge
De Lacy glanced at the boy and the
probation officers fixed their gaze on him.
1t took but a moment for the officials
to recognize the young man as Henry
Rogers, arraigned on a petty charge more
than a year ago, and who at that time
had been given his freedom on condition
that he leave the Jurisdiction for two
years.
Henry said he had just arrived from
Philadelphia, and asked the court to per-
NIT him to remain in the Jurisdiction so
that he might obtain work and make an
honest living.
It was in September. 1910, that Henry
was brought before the court on a minor
larceny charge. He was living at 1229
NJ street northwest, with his aunt, his
mother and father being dead. The court
suspended sentence on condition that the
defendant remove TO the farm of his god
father at Catletts. Va. and remain away

Chief Justice Shepard ReverseS
Lower Courts Action.

Chief Justice Shepard, Of the Court of
Appeals, has filed an opinion reversing
the action Of the lower court in cancel
ing the citi--aship Of Joseph Cohen, who
was naturalized January 4, 1909.
Action to revoke the citizenship was
brought by District Attorney Wilson on
the charge that the naturallzed citizen
was not a person Of good moral char
acter. No supporting affidavit was fled
and none was averred in the petition.
In reversing the action OF the lower

the district attorney Is not empowered
TO bring such proceedings on his own
initiative, but only after the receipt of
an affidavit setting out and supporting
the charges.
Unless the petition can be amended by
