room and caught her by the throat
but was routed by an umbrella that
she welded with good eject.

four bars had put him in a chaIleng-
ing mood. But the adverse testimony

GUILTY PREDICTS
ANIMAL DANCES
WILL SOON END
Dancing Master Announces
Return of Old Fashions
in Ball Room.

modern dances are not only be-
coming unpopular but have nearly
ruined the dancing business of the
United States" said Daniel Guilty, the
well lenown master of the. terpsichor-
can art today in discussing the future:
of exhibition and so-ca1led animal
dancing.
".Rancire masters in New York have
reached the conclusion after careful
analysis of the situation that both in
public and social dancing, the fancy
figures are on the wane and are re-
sponsibIe for keeping thousands away
from dancing academies. That it is
less popular upon the stage than six
months or a year ago is also disclosed
from consultations with big theatrical
booking agencies.
Something must be done in rela-
ton to dancing that will bring back
to normal conditions an art which is
invigorating, artistic and of general
benefit to old and young" said Mr..
Guilty Persons who once took great
interest in dances have watched the
popular craze go beyond their efforts
or ideals and have either sat during
dances at social events or have de-
cided to stay away altogether.
1T has been the exceptional few
who have been able to master the in
tricate steps of many of these new
dances, and even they were often
times put into the shade by serni-pro-
fessionals or professionals WHO APP
peared upon the floor among them.
THE old dances are not only re-
gaining favor, but will be put on again
Throughout the country. It would not
be a wild guess to predict that within
a few years the modern animal dance
will be mere tradition"

Immigration BILL
VETO TO GET HELP
OF SENATOR REED

Washington. Feb. 1.-THE fate of
the Immigration bill, vetoed by Pres
ident Wilson because of the ilteracy
test provision, took renewed interest
in Congress to-day because of the in
tention of Senator Rood, of Missou-
ri, to speak in the Senate in support
of the presidential veto provided the
opportunity is presented. Senator
Reed, who had opposed many of the
administration measures. fought the
immigration bill and was one of seven
voting against it. House leaders, how
ever, are not sure that two-thirds
majority vote necessary to pass the
bill over the Presidents veto can be
procured.

that the Associated Press will car

is a bylaw in The Associated Press

Commissioners Walsh asked the

a member Of The Associated Press
being disciplined for the violation of
the alleged bylaw. Mr.. Pinchot re-
piled that Mr.. Mccormick editor of

Comp uIsory Change of Name.

A notable instance Of compulsory
change of name occurred in Scotland
in the seventeenth century, when the
clan Macgregor was ordered to ADAM
don and forget its ancient patronymic.
The English government thought by
this means to stamp out the spirit of
Rob Roy's redoubtable kinsmen, and
SO sternly was the decree enforced that
the use of the old name was treated as
a capital offense. For the time the
clansmen submitted and took other
names; but. SO far from forgetting the
old designation, later generations
proudly reverted to it, and today there
are more Macgregors in the world-to
the worlds gain-than ever before
