REVIVE SECOND
 EMPIRE DANCES

Paris, March 16.-tSpecial) )-Parisian society, wearied of the ungraceful ono step and other dances imported from America, is enthusiastic over the resus- citation of dances of the Second Empire. prepared as a surprise for his guests by M. Fernand Ochse, a young musician, at a small and exclusive party the other night
 NJ. Ochse, who joins to his musical tal- ent a remarkable gift for staging. showed a ball under the Second Empire in series of exquisite tableaux. The first scene depicted four graceful girls wearing crinolines, two in white and two In black. spangled with silver, dancing with elegance and grace in a softly light ed room to the strains of concealed or chestra.
 Then the dancers were seen resting from their eXertions by a fountain m moonlit park, and the same tone of aris- tocratic repose prevailed-se different rom the altered manners of today
 Another scene showed a Chopin mazu~- ka, and the little spectacle concluded by the dancers placing their flowers and jewels on a little altar as dawn appeared and an unseen voice acclaimed Gautier's verses bidding the night farewell
 The Duchess de Clermont Yonnere, M. Henri de Regnier and M. Andre de Foul quieres were among the select company invited to compare these dances of the past with the Turkey Trot and the Griz- Ely Bear antics of the present day. .

There are. in the Paris streels a number of men who for some reason have been obliged to suffer amputation of both legs from the trunk and who beg fer public charity on little carriages on which they wheel themselves about with extraordinary skill, using their hands as propelers. It is an unwritten police rule in Paris that all traffic must be stopped whenever 'cu de iatte" wishes to tor cars and taxicabs the rule is a good one
 But the "cul de jatte' has discovered that many people who are uncrippled have more difficulty than he in getting From one pavement to another and he has turned his deformity into a money maker. Every day at crowded street corners one may see one of these unfor- tHnates on his little carriage heading crowd of timd folk across the road, while the policemen at each side keep back the traffic. When they are safely on the other side the 'cul le jatte" takes off his cap and asks for ferry money He rarely collects less than IS pence. and as he repeats the performance % or 20 times day the simplest calculation will show that his trade is good one. It is true that it needs special accomplish merts. One of these cripples died in Paris recently leavng a fortune or over SiOO O00

 Bad appetite was never cured by re- breaches, but is cured every day by fresh air and Ozomulsion.

LABOR DAY CELEBRATION
PROVES GREAT SUCCESS
LARGE ATTENDANCE TURNS OUT
AT oROvE-MANY FINE
SPEECHES MADE.

The copper country labor unions
turned out in force yesterday for the
big labor day celebration at the Han
cock grove, and the almost unanimous
verdict Of the visitors was that II was
the most successful meeting of the
kind ever held in the copper country.
The usual parade was held yester-
day morning. starting from the cor
ner of College avenue and Franklin
streets and marching down Sheldon
street 90 the bridge and then over TO
Hancock and out to the Hancock
grove. After arrival at the park, the
orator of the day and the other speak
ers addressed the crowd, taking az
their subjects the mission and charac-
ter of the labor unions and the labor
movement.
The speaker Of the day was A. r.
McNally OF Calumet and the other
speakers We're w. Frank James, Will
lam Wilkinson, John Valimaki and X.
r Parker, president of the trades and
labor council.
Attorney McNally pointed out to the
laboring man the real mission OF the
labor lnion Born of the desire of the
working man TO better his own condi-
| tion and TO aid his fellow workers
IN the fight for advancement, the labor
unions were formed even before the
advent OF the Elizabethan era and have
continued under one name or other
down to the present day when their
| growth and power are most marked.
| Mr.. McNally pointed out how the Ia
| Dor union was recognition OF the
fact that standing alone the laborlng
man could accomplish little, but by
combining and standing together he
became power with great possibii-
ties for good.
The afternoon celebration was Civ
en over TO sports and dancing with
| band concerts by the Isle Royale and
! quincy bands. The crowd i'm the after
noon was said to be the largest that
| has ever attended a labor day celebra-
| ton in the copper country and TO
break all attendance records for such
gatherings.
