For next week there will be plenty Of
dancing. The Motor Car Touring So
ciety has arranged to give its annual
dinner and dance at Sherry's and while
bachelors ball It will be somewhat on
that order. as the majority of members

Film the entire party was conveyed in
omnibuses to the home OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Gould, S57 Fifth avenue. where there
had already assembled the dinner guests
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Anthony j. DreXel. Jr.,
who brought with them quite sixty OF
the younger married people. Others
came for the dance and there was con-
tiuuous music by Conrad's orchestra
and Europe's band. Supper was served
without particular Formally and there
seemed to be no cessation OF general
dancing except when Mr.. and Mrs. Ver-
non Castle came In after midnight to do
their innovation and other dances.
1t seems quite unnecessary to make
such an onslaught on the tango and
other dances now in vogue. and why the
tango should fall under the ban Is a
mystery. THIS dance IL so difficult that
IL rarely attempted except by profess
SIGNALS. and when danced at the private
balls OF the winter there are so few who
are proficient that they hold the floor
and dance in a circle formed by the
other dancers. who do not dare to at
tempt the difficult steps.
At one Of the largest and most
fashionable balls of the winter, where at
least 600 were assembled. there were but
hve couples who attempted the tango
and they danced In the centre of an ad-
hiring throng that stood about Sherrys
ballroom to watch. II the modern
dances are SO objectionable why should
not some OF the hostesses endeavor to
revive the lancers. the Virginia reel,
Lady Washington's reel or even the
Highland fling? There is certainly cir
cumspect grace in the square and contra
dances and the fling would give all tho
life that any one might require. The
amusing part OF most of these objections
~ that they are made by people who
cannot dance the modern steps or by
those who do not even see a dance in
The course OF the season. Ii is a cap
tious critic who can find fault with the
present conditions Of dancing, and II the
tango, one step or two step must be
barred why not all dancing.
Nothing could have been more de-
hshtful or graceful than the Brazilian
rnaxiNe which was danced at the enter
tanment Of the Junior League Club by
brother and sister. James c. Fargo I'd
and Miss Clara Fargo; and in fact all the
other dances at that entertainment were
"atched and applauded by the most

libraries of New York. From these
sketches which are now on view at Mr..

COURT REFUSES TO
GRANT REHEAR|NG OF
APPEAL FOR FRANK
Man Convicted for Murder
of Little Mary Phagan
Takes Step Nearer
the GallOws

Atlanta, Ga, February 25.-The Georgia
supreme court today refused to grant a
rehearing of the appeal for a new trial
for Leo NJ. Frank, under death sentence
for the murder of Mary Phagan.
Chief Justice Fish and Associate Jus
tice Beck who dissented from the court s
decision last week denying the appeal,
concurred in today's decision which was
affirmed unanimously.
The motion for a rehearlng was filed
yesterday and was based on the conten-
tion that certain important counts in the
appeal had been disregarded by the court
Notice was filed In the superior court
today by attorneys for James Conley, the
negro convicted yesterday of being an
accessory to the murder that they would
ask a new trial for their client.
Conley, who was the principal witness
against the young factory superintendent,
is under sentence of u months in a
convict chaingang.
Frank received news of todays supreme
court decision with the same calmness
he had exhibited since his arrest last
April, two days after the murder of the
little factory girl. He expressed conf
dence that his death sentence, Indefinitely
stayed pending final disposal of his case,
would never be executed.

COTTON COMPANY
Alabama Corporation Found
InsOlvent at Involuntary
Bankruptcy Hearing

Dallas, Tex, February 25.-S. w. King,
Jr., president of the Dallas Cotton Ex-
change, and a member Of local firm of
cotton dealers, was appointed receiver of
the Southern States Cotton corporation
by Judge E. r. Meek in federal court
today.
The receivership for the Alabama COR
poration was decided upon by Judge Meek
at the close of a hearing on an involun-
tary bankruptcy proceeding brought by
four creditors who alleged they had un-
paid claims amounting to $4,000 against
the corporation. Judge Meek in appoint
ing the receiver commented on the use
Of the funds of the company in dealing
In cotton futures and said in his opinion
it was useless to proceed further, owing
to the fact that the examination seemed
to indicate the company not solvent.
Corporation officials maintain that the
concern is entirely solvent and showed
during the hearing that a large amount
of cash is held in various banks to credit
The court decreed the corporation $
answer, declaring why II should not be
declared bankrupt, must be filed by
March IA.

Campaign

Jasper, February 25.-(Special.
Lieut.. Gov. Walter d. Seed spoke here
today in the interest of his candidacy
He had a good audience of about $50
persons.
Mr.. Seed spoke for about two hours,
confining the subject matter of his
discourse entirely to the issue involved
in the campaign, which he handled in
a way that, he thinks, will not work
an abomination nor provoke denial.
The only opponent in the campaign
referred to was former Governor Co.
mer, whom Mr.. Seed handled with
gloves off.
Mr. Seed spoke at Cordova this
morning and motored here and thence
t. Dora, where he was scheduled to
speak at 4:30 o'clock.
HES friends here claim that he will
carry Walker by large plurality and
majority When he ran for
lieutenant governor, with Mr.. Mallory,
he carried the county by about 700.

in the north, east southeastern depres-
sion moved only slightly eastward, but
advanced northward to the interior of
the south Atlantic and eastern Gulf states
instead. AS a consequence, the wind cir
culation being spirally around the CEN
ters of low pressure, they did not blow
from the north and northwest. but
changed to eastern and northeasterly di-
rections. These conditions, with the un-
expected fall in the pressure, brought
general precipitation in the southeastern
states from Mississippi to South Caro-
lima. The prevailing temperatures in
the southeastern states determined the
character of the precipitation, which
ranged from snowfall in the northern
and interior districts to sleet and rain
along the coasts.
Clear skies prevail over most of the
valley and lake states, and the temper
atures. though still low, are rising stead
lily. The minimum temperatures have
been reached in the southeast. and a
change to slightly higher readings should
begin in Alabama Thursday. However, d
rapid rise is not to be expected, and the
SNOW on the ground will hardly disappear
before Thursday night. The weather will
be generally fair Thursday.

PLEADS FOR RELIEF
OF DRUG VICTIMS

Albany, N. Y, February 25.--A plea for
the relief of drug victims was made by
DR.. Charles A. Towns of New York be-
fore legislative hearing here today on
bills designed to restrict the sale of habit
forming drugs, principally cocaine and
its derivatives
The drug problem in the underworld
is the one for the police to cope with"
DIR. Towns said, but drugs have workeo
greater havoc in the upper world than
in the under world, and here their havoc
mas been wrought upon men and women
who are really worth while, whom ii is
the duty of the medical profession the
drug trade and everybody who lays the
slightest clam to decent humanity to
conserve"
feature of the proposed law is a pro-
vision designed to tr slt those who obtain
drugs in violation of the law as victims
of disease and not as criminals This
provision would give a magistrate author
ity to commit habitual users of drugs to
hospitals or sanitariums instead of the
prison.
