1t is provided that peers. Irish or
others. shall be eligible 10 membership
in either House Of the Irish Parliament.
The Irish ministers may be members
of either House. and may sit and vote
in either, but, of course. only one in
each.
one OF the most noteworthy changes
which will be effected by the bill is
the reduction Of the Irish representa-
ton at Westminster. For the Irish
are not TO be excluded from the I'M

proposed they should be. Their num-
bers are TO be reduced. however 10
something like an equal ratio with
those from other parts of the kingdom.
At present Ireland has nearly twice as
many members as she should have in
proportion TO the others. Thus she has
1913 members to only seventy-two for
Scotland, although Scotland has by far
the larger population. In Ireland there
is one member for each 1900 persons,
and in England and Wales one for
each 1900.
Obviously. while Home Rule will in
crease Irish authority over limited
number of purely Irish matters, it will
greatly lessen II in imperial affairs
In addition it is explicitly provided
that Notwithstanding the establishment
OF the Irish Parliament or anything
contained in this act. the supreme

the changes OF this exceedingly limited

came to New York and the craze was
started here. Just what connection
they had on the present dance wave is
hard to say, but the world was waiting
for something 10 give a motive impulse
TO the dance. In only two other periods
of the worlds history has there been
the stagnation in dancing that preceded
the present wave. One was in Roman
times. when the dance had grown cor
rupt: the other, which recently ended,
was the later Victorian period, when
the dance, in England and America,
grew stale through excessive conVen-
tionality. The world, in fact, was like
a compressed spring awaiting some re-
lease 10 set il dancing as it had danced
in all the ages. The Russian ballet
furnished that release and the excess
of the recoil is perhaps responsible for
the present craze, that must inevitably
regulate itself. II has been doing this,
in fact, in the last two years. Stage
dancing has always been wisely gov
prnPQ through thltilldi liiiuclStS. lDnii
room dancing has been required TO reg
ulate itself. The early excuses have
been yubsiding. People INDUCED in
them until they became disguised.
There has been, as / said, the greatest
development in discernment Of good
dancing during the last two years, par
ticularly among the class Of people that
see dancing at the opera
The function OF the new, or ro-
mantle school Of dancing is not to tell
a naturalstic narrative. IT is rather to
tell anything in the field Of moods. The
Russian school can give the most oml-
nous sense Of tragedy in its heavier
dances. in Scheherezade, for example,
while the Spectre de la Rose is as
dainty and ethereal rs anything one
could imagine. Pavlowa can do any
thing that she wishes with the moods
Of her audience. II is impossible TO
overrate her.
And the people in the ballet with her
go from one mood TO another with
amazing swiftness. Novikoff is excep-
tionallv good at this From the heavy
and ominous they pass to the hghtest
Of pastoral motifs; from the dance OF

DANCERS UNDER CONTRACT FOR
LIFE.

The Russian ballet was in curious
position, and if it had not been for the
energy of the rebels IL would have been
halted within the limits Of the Russian
Empire. The imperial ballet dancer
was under contract for life TO give the
Imperial opera the option on his or
her services. And after the chief days
Of usefulness the dancer was pensioned
for life. But this was changed. Ser
gus Diagliev, the painter. explained TO
the government officials that the i'm
perial ballet had discovered new and
a great form of artistic expression.
We are trying TO acquaint Western
Europe with Russian civilization said
Diagliev I'VE must take a ballet from
the imperial school to Paris And this
was done.
The Russian ballet in Paris caused
tremendous sensation. Artists and mu-
sicians gathered around Fokine. Rim
sky Korsikov and Leon Bakst were
among them. They had much to do
with the costumes, the line grouping
and the color effects that were needed
TO throw the audience into moods re-
ceptive TO the dancers.
1T was curious that the dance craze
started in Paris soon after the advent
OF the Russian dancers. Then they

wholesome and nourishing foods. They
have their own chiropodists, who ex-
anime their feet with the utmost cara
to guard against deformities that may
interfere with their dancing. The girls
have nurses to take care Of them. The
ballet masters even go SO far AS 10
watch the children when sleeping, 10
make sure that healthy positions arc
maintained.
The technical training is in regular
ballet form. Ballet exercises the ear
riage Of the body the mechanics of
steps, form i'm steps, limbering eXer-
cises and exercises for grace are all in
cluded. Along with this is common
school educations, which brings the
child about to the grade Of one Of Our
own preparatory schools. 4 course in
drawing is given to teach purity OF
line. Music is taught also. A member
Of the Russian Ballet can tell the
leader Of an orchestra exactly what lie
wants done, and tell him in musical
terms. Particular attention is given t.
music because. Of all things. absolute
tempo is the first and the most need

extreme. Pleasures are few. 1t is con-
sidered a recreation TO give a panto-
mime in the evening. and this task q
reserved as a privilege. The boys are
allowed gymnastic work as additional
pleasures and fencing. But for 3il the
severity of the course the ksussian
school turns out the healthiest people
in the whole wide world. They are
simply marvels.
1t seems TO be a fact that light ex-
ercises taken rhythmically have a value
beyond unrhythmic exercise. The Rus
sian Ballet seems to prove that dancing
is one of mans natural and elemental
functions"

Ireland under Home Rule is not TO

own. as Canada and Australia and
other colonies have. She is TO have no
coinage. no army and navy, no
naturalization, no copyrights or pat
ents and no customs tariff. She may
levy but cannot collect taxes. she
will have nothing to do with the great
systems of land purchase, old age pen
sions, national insurance and labor eX-
changes. All these will remain i'm
perial institutions and functions. she
cannot establish or endow any religious
system or make any discrimination
against any. For six years she Will
have nothing TO do with the Royal
Irish Constabulary, except TO avoid
falling foul Of it's batons and bayonets.
She. through her Parliament, may
increase or reduce rates or taxation
with some exceptions. But the collec-
ton of all taxes, imperial and irish,
will remain a function Of the imperial
exchequer. and all the proceeds Will be
covered into the imperial treasury.
There will be an Irish exchequer'
which will pay the cost OF Irish gov
eminent, with the exception OF old age

DOn't Think About This, Unless
You Want To.

THERE is not enough gold money, on
earth, to pay the interest on the public
and private debts owed by the debtor class to
the creditor class.
A few Rothschilds, Morgans, Rockefellers,
Carnegies, &C., have prevailed upon the
nations to adopt gold, as the money Of final
payment. They have also prevailed upon the
nations to retire from use and p0aCe9s-more
than one-third of all the gold This useless
and powerless gold is called the Gold Reserve,
and is never used. 1t is the Old Guard Gagged
in the Sanitorium
With one-third of the money of final
redemption put where it cannot be of any
use to the people, nor compete in any way
with the gold of the Rothschilds, Rockefel-
lers, Morgans and Carnegies, their gold abso-
lutely rules the Day of Judgment-towt:
the day on which debts have to be paid an
gold, or renewed on such terms as the gold
owners dictate.
DO yOu aOoroder that the nations of earth
are all mo0rtgGged {by bonds, consols, SCI
to the gozd-Oacnirog clique?
DO you wonder that these mortgages are
never paid?
Has it ever occurred to you that there isn't
gold enough in the world to pay them?
DO you understand n0e0 why these bond
debts and consols debts of the world have
another, by renewals, which renewals are
called refunding?
When you can't pay your note. the bank
may allow you to renew it. When the Gov
eminent can't pay its bonds, they are
"refunded." They swap the old set for the
new set, and the next generation has to walk
the floor.
Thus, ac;th the gold standard, the fer mem
aOh0 control the gold, control the acor7d.
Don't worry over this unless you feel like
it.
Start your plows early, subsoil deeply,
diversity your crops, so that all the buzzards
that sit on the dead pines looking at you
while you do II, may get something out of
your varied activities.
These buzzards are the gold standard far
mers Of the farmers They don't have to
pitch crops and worry with free niggers and
drench colicky mules.
All they have to do is, to acait until y0as can
fetch ten more billion dollars out of the

Amt you glad that we elected a Demo
cratic President, renewed the national banks,
retained the glorious privilege of paying COM
pound interest on the $750,00O,OOO of national
bank due-bllls, kept our national debt, fixed
our British gold standard right where the
American eagle could sweep it clean with
his tail feathers, and thus kept Europe from
making our great country dumping ground
for such nasty stuff as silver coins?
Thank goodness! we are safe-from any
such national calamity as that. It must be a
fearful thing to have too much silver coin,
all of it full legal tender, and just as good to
buy cotton futures with as any other COIN
Fortunately, we common clodhoppers have
not had Europe's silver dumped on us. We
have been doped and dumped all right, but
it wasn't with silver money.
