sTANDARDIzING THE NEW DANCES.

1HE8 POLITE and starched world of the
 1 ballroom has been in confusion. The old term dancing master seems inappropriate now The pupils have driven that potentate. from his throne of authority while they have ruled the school dancing anything and every thing that seemed good to them.
 Meanwhile the baffIed teachers have striv- en to refine and prune the tangos and 1naxixes to meet the protests raised on aesthetic moral grounds But where the pupils of different schools or different cities have met, the scene has been one of anarchy.
 It has been particularly noticeable at the winter resorts. It will be more so when the summer hotel ball rooms begin to Whirl. While one fellow is castle walking his girl i6 steps backward in wild swoop the length of the floor, he runs kerplunk into another who is universal schottsching his girl forward and back in a lazy rocking motion.
 Convinced that these steps mark new dance era, the teachers have now set to work to .standardize them before next winter, sozt that typical forms shall be taught the same in differ Dancing Teachers has met at Paris the past week and is working to reduct the tango to a universal figure This very likely will be ae- |cepte5l by American teachers.
 There are over 50 different ways of dancing Ithesone-step. Manifestly a hall where 50 differ ent figures are being performed to the music of one orchestra will be very much of a bear garden
 The craze thus has it's grotesque features But it has served to Timber up many middle aged people who had supposed that their dancing l days were over While many persons do the new figures coarseIy, even the old dances were | often performed in a manner suggestive of the hammock on dark night.

ANOTHER POWER
PROJECT BEING
CONSIDERED
PLAN TO HARNESS COL
ORADO RIVER AT SOME
POINT IN THE GRAND
CANYON
(From Tuesdays Daily

From reports in circulation III the
northern part OF the State, together
with the mentioning OF the fact III
Eastern technical journals, that d
corps Of engineers has been making
a reconnaissance OF the ColradO river
along the Grand Canyon, in behalf
of Phelps, Dodge & Co, it is be
lieved that the Harvesting OF the
waters and storage in gigantic dams
for electrical power purposes is 1t
last TO receive material considera-
ton.
An arrival III Prescott from that
locality states it is a settled fact
that d preliminary survey has been
made, and i'll a short time there
will arrive other engineers who arc
to make final report on the feasa-
bility OF the gigantic undertaking. 1t
was not learned at what sites the
river flow will be utilized but this
feature OF the project is not seri-
ously regarded as there arc said
to be hundreds OF places where
power generating stations can be
conveniently established
Linked to this project IS not alone
the question OF generating electricity
Tor power purposes, but one for
retaining arid lands that range into
the hundreds OF thousands Of acres.

vast outlay OF capital will be re
CURED, and years will be consumed
in carrying out the project on the
lines under consideration. 1t Is BE-
icycd that inside Of the next three
months the final observations OF the
second set OF engineers viii be forth
coming.

MANY SWIMMERS
READY TO TAKE
THE PLUNGE
Continued from Page One)

irC his weather eye open and no
doubt will be actively campaigning
for some other office soon. 1t IS be
lieved that he would not object to
= place on the tax Commission. As
: matter of fact, few Democrats
would. as tax commissioners are to
be elected hereafter for siX-year
terms.
There is lively speculation as 10
whether one tax commissioner or
two will go out the first of 1915.
When the law creating the tax COM
mission was passed it provided that
the governor should appoint the
three commissioners, one to hold
office till the first day OF 1913, one
till 1915 and one till 1917. P. J.
Miller received the short term,
Charles R. Howe the long term
and c. NJ. lander the intermediate
one.
At the time the law was passed
it was supposed that there would
be a general election in 1912. Under
a now famous decision of the su-
prcme court all State officers are
holding over till 1915. Miller re-
mains in office till the date when,
under the provisions of the law.
Zander's term expires.
The law clearly intended that one
tax commissioner should be chosen
at each general election, and that
there should always be two men on
the commission familiar with its
work. If lander and Miller both
go out OF office next January Howe
will be the only old commissioner
left And of the two commissioners
elected there will be no legal way
TO say which shall have the long
and which the short term.
It is probable that the question
will be passed up to Attorney Gen
cral George Purdy Billiard. II he
decides that lander holds two years
more, Howe will hold till 1919. That
will give him, altogether, seven years
on the commission.
