the dancing parties given during the
past three years, has decided that in
spite OF his thorough education In the
classic steps. which he acquired In his
lessons from Mordkln. Chalif and other
professors of the art, ii Is now necessary
for him to retire. Mr.. Onativia came
to this conclusion after he had been
compelled to dance eleven times during
one week last winter. As these eleven
entertainments took place In eleven DIFF
ferent places, there was some work in
volved.
Although he will cease to dance, Mr..
| Onattvia will not altogether abandon
the arts. He is devoting himself to the
study OF music as several Of his songs
have already been accepted for publi-
cation by an important publishing house.
