The Dostonlans nro not angels. That was
A popular delusion which hiu Just boon ex
ploded by a quarrel out ntSan Francisco.
Tlioro are four principal Indies In- the com
pany : .losslon.irtlettU.wls , Camilla D'Ar-
vlllo , Cnrollno Hamilton anil Flora Flnlay-
Bon. Misses D'Arvlllo and Hamilton nro so
pranos and alternately prima donuas. Misses
Davis and Flnlayson are contraltos , but the
latter Is an understudy to the former. Now
nn alternating prima donna and an under *
fctudy tUffcr In importnnco. LIUowiso a so
prano 1ms moro ot dignity and oinolumcnts
than a contralto , anil the loading roles In
opera nro written for soprano voices. In this
company , however , Mls Davis has a vogue
which ( jivo.H her moro than ordinary Import
ance , in fanl bho considers hersoir qulio us
liniortiuit | us thu sopranos.
Hero are the elements of a pretty femnla
quiirr'ol , and it broKe out In Call-
Jornin , Miss Hamilton Is an old
tlino favorite In ban Francisco who hud
ennK hundrcus of timus in llio s > o-
cml circles of that city , 'iho thrifty mana
gers sought to tnko iiiivtuitaifo of that lact
unn put her In tlio cast for the lirst night.
Miss D'Arvlllo was up in arms at once , re-
6onted the unparalleled Insult to her dignity
mid referred to the clause In her contract
which provided that stia should upncur on
opcniriK nights. She hud her own way , and
the company reached San Francisco intact.
After the engagement begun Miss Hamil
ton's popularity bccnmo apparent , and the
managers cnst her for another of Miss D'Ar- '
villo's nlulits. The latter ogatn arose in
nrms , roslgncd her place in the company
mid nbked lor thn shortest route to London.
Incidentally she remarked that Miss Davis
was receiving too much consideration , and
Miss Flnlayson agreed with her. That pre
cipitated another quarrel. The thrco mana
gers , Karl , nurnabco and McDonald , held a
mooting and look bldos with the several ivar-
rinp prima donnas. The outcome of this con
tention will bo nwaltcd with lntorc.it by the
many admirers of the Bostonlans.

It is worthy of remark that the "serpen
tine dance , " iho latest New York
craze , has not yet been produced in
Omaha , unless ouo of the dances In "Sin-
bad" was Intended to pass for It. The latter
was a pretty little thing , but It was not us
gauzy orns sucKoatlvoas the novelty Intro
duced to Gotham by Lole Fuller.
For a good many years the tendency ol
dancers was to abbreviate petticoats , and
lluully to discard them altogether , until of
late years they have been capering about the
BtaRU with as near nothing on as they could
pet. Then some girl discovered that where
there was such general liberality a gleam of
stockinged leg liushlng from the tossed folds
of something like conventional petticoats Is
more appetizing to the average male than
any forest of moro or less padded trotters ,
mid with this discovery forthwith arose iho
Bldrt aanco , really far moro reprehensible
than any of the ordinary ballets.
Now Lnio has on improvement on this.
She has built a skirt with endless yards in it
that drops from Just under the well , the
arms , to the llcor , but U of such airy and
gossamery tcxtura that a little motion sots it
Heating like a curl of snioko. Then she dark
ens the house so that ovcryuody can gloat
without being laughed at , throws a strong
light on the stage , and whirls In with cease
less posturings and gyrations that keep the
misty folds Moating around her little person
like wreaths of transparent vapor. Sud
denly the light shilts to a screen behind nor ,
nnd the little llcrure shows like a well , you
can guess bow in the midst of a faint , moro
than balf-revculing" cloud.
This is all. Tlioro is no dancing. No
steps and postures which she has had to
learn by long nnd painful practice. Only the
spontaneous cap < ; rings and prancings of
which any little woman Is capaolc when she
is young , in a now Kind of dress , which , hko
a good many Chtistinns , professes to do what
It docs not do and is not intended to do , and
under conditions of lighting which disclose
and emphasize the utter hollowuesi of that
profession.

DECISION AFFECTING SECRET SOCIETIES
Orgntilrtiign ( Ininit I.oilRO of the Coiiimcr-

Itunm.
The case of Edward D. Mullcry against
Harry Morton nnd other members of Iron
Moulders union 100. decided In favor of the
plaintiff last week in the district court , will
bo far reaching in Its affect upon fraternal
organizations.
The ciuoVM as follows : Some months nio
Mullcry was n member of Iron Moulders
union 100 , nnd while enjoying the rights nnd
privileges of the society lie Joined another
Iron moulders' union , which thu members of
1UO claimed was antagonistic lo their inter
ests. They asked Muilory to withdraw from
the ofTdnslvo order , but bo would not. That
caused trouble and steps wcro taken to expel
him from union HK ) . ho would not hnvo It
that way and brought suit in the district
court to enjoin the members of 100 from uoine
anything ol tlio kind.
.Ittdgo 11vino , sitting on the case , alter
hearing the evidence issued the prayed for
injunction.
In passing upon the case , Judge irvlno
said : "Tho court has been cited to a largo
number of cases upon llio rights of the courts
to interfere in such c.uoi , und upon the prin
ciples governing Iho courts In such interfer
ence. As is usual where the cases nro numer
ous , they are not harmonious , nnd it is
ill 111 cult irom the authorities alone to extract
any system of rules which will stand llio lost
of logic , The following principles seem to bo
in accord with the better line of authorities ,
and in harmony with general legal prin
ciples :
"First A man , in cntcrinR Into a volun
tary association , enters into a contract with
the members thereof , which Is enforceable
by the courts , and where the courts do inter
fere in such cases us the ono at bar , It is for
Hie enforcing of lhat contract of member
ship , nnd not of reviewing the action of a
Judicial body.
"li. The constitution nnd bylaws j-ndo In
pursuance thereof form a portion of this con
tract of membership.
" 3. Where the constitution or other law of
the association provides a manner of expell
ing members , it is a part of the contract of
membership that ono mity bo expelled in the
manner provided und in no other way , and
that a mcmuor will submit himself to trial
In ilia manner provided nnd in that manner
alone ,
" 4. If the procedure so provided bo fol
lowed , the contract requires the members to
abide the findings reached in pursuing that
procedure , but otherwise not.
" 5. Courts ( will In no wise interfere when
the membership does not confer property
rights ; that ii , some rights recognized by the
law as of material value , as distinguished
from moro sentimental or social right * und
privileges.
"Applying these rules to tbo decision In
the case , wo tlnd that iho constitution of Ibo
Iron Molders union provides n manner of
preferring charges and trying members
thereon nnd of indicting punishment , includ
ing suspension and expulsion. Among Iho
requisites nro the preferring of charges and
ordering the appointment of < t committee to
investigate the same , iho notification of tbo
member charged of the tlmo and place of
hearing , Iho privilege of iho accused to cross-
examine witnesses and Introduce testimony ,
the report of the committee lo the union of a
synopsis of the testimony , together with the
lindings und recommendations. It is then
provided that when iho report of the com
mittee is made , iho unon | shall tlrst vote on
sustaining the report of tbo committee us to
the guilt or innocence of the accused , and If
ho bo found guilty by the union , then the
next vote shall bo by ballot , first on expul
sion , and if that vote is not in the affirmative ,
then on suspension , und ihcrcaftcr on line
and rcnrlinaud and then back lo suspension.
No adjournment can take place until a decis
ion Is reached ,
"In Mullorv's ' case this procedure was de
parted from in borcral respects. In the llrat
place the evidence was not reported in writ-
ling. There Is no proof to show that nu oral
report was made. A paper is filed in evi
dence which , it is claimed , is n written
synopsis of the evidence by the committee.
This document U not well authenticated and
is absolutely unintelligible without the aid
of oral explanation.
' The object of tbo requirement is plain. It
is to placa botoro the union not only the
findings of the committee , but the evidence
taken by the committee in sunlcicnt detail to
afford a basis of intelligent action. In the
next place there was an adjournment after
the report was received , No matter what
caused this adjournment , It wus In
violation of the constitution. The
fact that no voting had occurred
does not mauo tbo action regular. Final
action was tukcn at a special meeting and
not oven \ttt"'aaournmcnt \ ] of n regular
meeting. Alofttioso | , Irregularities wcro In
durcgurd of substantial rights ot the licensed
nnd were not rapro technical departures In
form , nnd I tVlbftjforo ( Inil that the proceed
ings looking toward tlio accused's ' expulsion
wore not thoto which ho had contracted to
submit to. ITtflT also clearly of the opinion
from nn Investigation of iho pvldonco relat
ing to this utilpn , Its objects and character ,
that membership therein is of local value ,
conferring substantial material and valuable
privileges , In'canjiblo of ndmcasurcincnt or
enforcement at law nnd Justifying the assist
ance of n court of equity by injunction In
proper case. "
