Il wonder if il would not be well to
have in addition to the patronesses or
chaperons presiding over ballroom a
patron or two A word of firm caution
from such patron might do wonders
with some thoughtless or reckless young
men.
'ln the case OF your daughter know
whom she dances with and how they
dance In the case of your son, know
how he dances 1t is an important duty
to protect your daughter from any man
who will not respect her womsnhood. 1t
is no less an important duty to see TO
it that no parents of another daughter
need fear her association with your son.
Use all your influence to create in
the community, among young people and
among their elders. a public opinion
which shall steruly discontinue any ten
dency to debase the splendid recreation
of dancing"

Walter S. Fenton of this city Judge
Frank l.. Fish of Vergennes has issued
an injunction prohibiting the Rutland

stalled a prepaid meter in Mr.. Fenton's
house and he has since paid in advance
for gas CONSUMED. He has rendered the
concern SIS, which he considers fair
amount for the gas burned in the four
months mentioned but the company has

"MINNIE'S" SEA TRIP.
Elephant Had Hard Time Crossing Lake
Champl6in.

Burlington, Sept 25.--Actresses are
usually finicky people, but Minnie, the
star elephant of the Chimes of Nor
mandy company has more patience than
most members of the theatrical profes-
sion. In order to board the steamer IT.
eonderoga yesterday, Minnie had to
make bow that eclipsed anything that
she ever did before the footlights. In
fact, Minnie bowed so low that her knees
scraped the deck.
And then her trouble had only begun
The whole process of securing her quar-
tiers for the voyage across to Plattsburg
was a series of bows. So often did Min
ME bow that it was feared by her keep
er that her appearance in the Plattsburg
theatre would be nothing but series
of bows.
After bowling herself into the center
Of the boat near the fire hold, Minnie
stretched herself out into position that
WIS about as comfortable as crawling
into a cupboard and staying there for a
few hours. What she thought about Dan
LOOMS accommodations for animals OF
her size cannot be expressed in words.
Every time Minnie tired of this posi-.
tion she would straighten up bit and
then there would be a general upheav-
al as the upper deck of the Tioonderoga
swelled under the strain. The passen-
gers grew uneasy at times as they
thought of what might happen il Min
ME should straighten mp suddenly in
stead of by degrees.
Once safely across and off the boat,
Minnie commenced process OF relaxa-
ton that has rarely been witnessed
Stretching to her full height, she snort
ed with JOY as she felt the absence of
any decks above. Then, bowling right
and left to the onlookers at the dock
at Plattsburg, she was led to her quar-
tiers.
1t was the first time that Lake
Champlain steamer had carried an ele-
plant.
