Time was when part of the public
failed to distinguish between real
dancers and the Sultanas or musical
shows; those naughty divinities who
spend their mornings in bed devour-
ing society columns and caramels.
their afternoons in sybaritic cars.
their post-performance hours in
jazzy cafes, and intervals in strut
ting the boards OF the ostensibly
'voluptuous merry-merry. But now
adays the difference between the
two wonders is common knowledge.
Everyone knows that tho dansuer or
danseuse is the product of four to
seven years of arduous training in
the academy. plus several years in
the uncompromising old post-gradu-
ate school of practical work. And
every appreciation OF the art knows
something of the dancers daily rou-
tine: 10 O'Clock morning practice for
technique; an hour later, rehearsal:
afternoon, II not another rehearsal
or matinee, attention to shoes. Co.'S
tunes, or other details; perform
ances eight week, and more for
those who digress into vaudeville.
In short. the work of acquiring and
the Shlll required Tor
great dancing is SO exacting that
only the exceptional physique can
stand 1t. And the best physique
stands 1t only by the remuneration
OF all professional claims on the
energies. 1t is the hardest work re-
Quired by any of the arts.
IVA But that is not the strongest
claim to sympathy with these
people. Did you think of the num-

PHIL PPINEs EDITOR is
FREED OF LIBEL CHARGE

Manila. P. l., November 25.-The
supreme court unanimously acquitted
Gregorio Perfecto, former editor oil
La Nacion. organ of the democratic
party, who was convicted in the low
err court and sentenced to two months
Imprisonment on a charge of defam-
ing members of the Philippine senate
The case arose from an attack
made by Mr.. Perfecto in La Naeion
upon the senate in connection with
the loss of valuable documents be-
longing thereto and in which he said
the author of the theft perhaps
simply followed the example of GER
tain senators who secured their eies-
ton through fraud and robbery"
While all the justices reached the
conclusion that Mr.. Perfecto was not
guilty, they differed on the basis of
the acQuittal.

FIRST INTER MET.
OPTION FAVORED
Protective Committee Gives
Reason for Selecting One
of Three Plans.

The protective committee represent
ing owners of the Interborough-M Metro
politan Company's 41a per cent. bonds
headed by Grayson NJ. p. Murphy, has
issued statement telling why holders
Of those bonds should exercise the first
of the three options under the Inter
borough Metropolitan readjustment
plan. The period in which holders of
the AIS may deposit them under the
plan and in which holders of certificates
OF deposit may exercise their election to
purchase new Interborough ten year &
per cent. notes expires on June II.
The committee estimates, from figures
I supplied by the Interborough Consoli-
dated Corporation and from New York
7 Stock Exchange quotations of June g..
! 1892, that the following options are open
s TO the bondhoders or the certificate
holders under the plan for a S1.0UU bond.
!. To pay $3.50 and receive $3.50 of new
per cent. notes quoted at 7I.5O $l2l;
five shares voting trust certificates for
the Interborough Rapid Transit Com
pany's stock, quoted at 80 $50; remain
ing assets of the Interborough Con-
solida ted Corporation, estimated at at
for the notes, the net amount received
by the holder in this transaction would
be $751;
g To surrender so per cent. of the
bond ard receive two shares OF the
Interboroughs voting trust certificates,
quoted at 30. $50; 40 per cent. of re-
naming assets, estimated at SO; total,
$50. or loss, compared with the
first option based en- present quota
tions. of $Si.
:. 3. To accept neither Of the foregoing
offers and receive only their proper
tionate part of the proceeds of the
forced sale of the Interborough Con-
solidated Corporations assets. The
committee believes that less will be
realized by non-depositors than is OBJ
tanable even under the second option.
The committee says the figures speak
for themselves. The committee merely
wishes to point out to holders who have
not carefully studied the situation the
great advantage to be secured by ex-
ercising the first option. June IA is
the date on which the right to exercise
a choice of these options expires
Holders who have not deposited their
bonds under the plan with the Guar
auty Trust Company OF New YORK
depository, on or before that date will
fall in the third ella ssification named
above. Holders who have already de
posted, but who do not present their
certificates of deposit to the depository
on or before June IA for notation OF
their election to exercise the option first
described above will be conclusiveiy
presumed to have chosen to exercise
the second option.
The Interborough- gh-Metropolitan Conn
pany's AZ per cent bonds are an issue
of the old holding company and are
secured by the deposit of stock of the
Interborough Rapid Transit Company
as collateral. Under the readjustment
