YOUNG PEOPLES DANCING
High School and Eighth Grade Mem.
bers Meet Saturday Afternoon.

The immense popularity of the soc
ial dancing class, which was started
to accommodate beginners and young
people under l6 years of age, was
quite unexpected. The registrations
for the first afternoon being 145, it
has been found necessary TO limit rhe
class in some way in order to make
the instruction effective.
Accordingly the High school and
eighth grade members will meet this
coming Saturday afternoon at Lii
brary hall at 3 O'Clock and all those
below the eighth grade on the follow
ing Saturday afternoon at the same
time, provided that the demand con-
tinues. The price of admission Will
be the same, viz. FIVE cents.

In a suit brought in the Supreme
Court by the executors Of the estate OF
Ichabod T. Williams, who was a million
aire lumber merchant, member Of the
Manhattan Club and bank director,
against Scott & Fowles, art dealers,
there Is the suggestion that Mr.. Will
Jams had at least two spurious paint
ings in his large collection Of the
works Of master artists. The amount
involved is 5000, and Scott & Fowles,
who bought the two paintings at auc-
tion at that price, allege that they
were not genuine, as represented.
Mr.. Williams, who died in 1899, had
a large collection Of canyases by Corot,
Millet, Diaz. Rousseau and Dupre; also
