plain garb Ist-lmngcd for softly flowing
draperies of silken gdHsumer Hoeonselen-
tlousaiul discreet In purpose that my lady
can turn on the gas with a touch of her
too and scarcely display the tip of hoi-
slipper. First , there is an elastic gar
ment of line wool fitting the figure
binoothly , then a Cleopatra girdlu of
satin , a Minplo little boned corse
let supporting the bust , but not
confining the waist , and stop
ping short above the hins ; a vest of silk ,
bloomers of satin , white or black , to
mutch the dross , and covered with soft
little llounccs ot lace all the way to the
boll , then a pottlcoatof accordion plaited
f'hina silk , the thinnest and lightest
made , and over this the gown , reaching
well down to the feet. Thirty yards
about the hem IB measured , and 110 little
gores pieced in like those of an umbrella
give it the graceful Hare and Iling , the
Bwifl and sweep desired. The bodice
measures little more than a child's in
length , slopping short just below the
bust at the bottom and reaching but a
little way above at the top. The shoul
ders and arms are bare and shapely. So
my lady executes her pas soul at the
swell high tea , so she stcp n
measure for hoi- friends after the din
ner or tit the evening function. It
is but a little while since the
iringc of society was parted to a Spanish
fcflrl in a Kilin frock , swinging a tam
bourine ab.ivo hot1 head and touching i
With her too. Then "Littlo Tucsday't
felippcd inside the sacred circle and'
danced her way to all hearts with her
pretty , childish grace.
The KlultuiK Criizc.
So the cni/o grew , and the ntTn.tr with
out a dancer to pose and posture was
voted a failure. Then somebody went
over to London and found that the
stately English dames and the decorous
British maidens wore kicking and ca
vorting with all the grace and abandon
of the charming Lottie Llnd , and
straightway Now York society made
itself a gown of wondrous width and
wont into training fop tho'ehampionship.
Oddly enough , it is the high kicking
gentlewomen whose names till the lists
at the great balls and lead the charity
sulwcriptlons the fashionable churches
ave wild over. They practice it at
homo ; they form clubs and classes ,
and devote hours to the study of
it in their handsome apartments ;
they keep Mine. Kruger posinj * and bal
ancing on the tips of her tiny slippers all
the day through , from 11 in the morning
until all hours of the nitrht to teach
them. And it is not only women famous
in the social world , like Mrs. Peter
Cooper Hewitt and Mrs. Bloodgood and
a whole host of others tlu'.t madame
knows and dees not know but novoi * be
trays , and m ted women like Ella
Wheeler \Vilcox and Mrs. Pcmborton
Hicks , but professional women as well ,
like Miss Letsing of shadow dance fame ,
Little Tuesday , Minnie Kenwood , Dor
othy Dunning , Fannie Rico , Grace Golden
den , and the rest , who learn their "own
original" dances of the supple little
woman with the big brown eyes and the
liny Morcury-s\ylft feet.
The Kicking Tracher.
Mmo. Krugor has danced over since
she was 0 y6ars old , and though she
looks like a school girl in her short dross
of bluck , reaching only half way to the
ankles and buttoned at the back like a
child's frock , the tall girl who plays the
dance music calls her mamma. She is a
dancer of the old school , trained under
the strict ballot system , and , like all
ballet dancers , Insists that the real art
of dancing , the true poetry of motion ,
Is the .pirouette . and poise of the pre
miere in the ballet. But old things
have passed away. The ballot is quite
beyond the mastery of the amateur. It
means dully pr.ietlco throughout the
career of a dancer. Like all line arts , It ,
demands not only talent , but the devo
tion of a lifetime. It cannot bo taken up
today and dropped tomorrow. But the
skirt dance , that comprehensive term
which covers fc-cores of movements and is
applied to everything danced in petti
coats instead of tnrlotnn , including char
acter dunces , Spanish dances , shadow
dances , minuets , sarabands , cccoanut
and butterfly dunces , is within the possi
bilities for any graceful woman with n
supple figure and light feet.
All sorts cf women climb the long stairs
to Mmo. Kruger's little hall with its
highly polished lloor and clear-toned
piana. Gawky young girls , stage-struck
and vain , come to learn in live lessons
what the little teacher has spent a life
time in attaining. Wheezy old girls ,
girls that have been girls a long time ,
falling In everything else , decide to star
as dancing sirens ut a Collins salary.
Smart society girls come in to learn the
postures and btops "just for- exercise ,
you know. " Of course , they never in
tend to dance at all , and are keeping it
from parents , sometimes from husbands ,
which is the worst feature about It.
In Distill , e.
Madame has a head as sagacious as
her feet nro nimble. If she moots
the girl who has come to her as n
professional obliged to earn her living
at dancing , driving down the avemu
with two men on the box , madame novej
recognizes her. If a married lady gives
n muno other than that her husbuni
Bigns on his checks madame t-ays noth
lug. Some day she has to send a dress t (

rirnt I.eMom.
Kvoy woman in the beginning , bo she
from the court or from the chorus , gets
marched up to n bar running nloug ono
side thu little hull nnd clinging to this
with ono linnd she must kick the other
foot out straight before , out ngttiii nt the
side , so to the back , holding the knco
perfectly stiff , the too pointed down
ward , the body above the hips motion
less. And they swing ono foot round
nnd round nt the knee nnd then the
other ; they got hold of the tco and carry
their foot straight up and over above
their heads. They bob up and down to
limber the knees , they bend the body
forward and back nnd to the side , they
sway the hands in nnd out nnd over their
heads In a slow and graceful motion , all
to soft music. They poise on ono toe
and do most erratic and unexpected
things with the other foot. Madame
takes the foot in hand herself if the
dancer is very stilT and awkward and
surprises it with some of its own possi
bilities. To see half n doxcn fashionable
women clinging to this bar and with the j
greatest seriousness and most earnest
purpose trying to outklck each other is
an funny 'as u stage funeral. There
are women past the half century
murk , if grown s'ms and daugh
ters bo o invtncing evidence , and
women considerably above the weight
recommended in the tables of symmetri
cal proportions in the classes. All the
wnv from . ' ! years to BO the age * range ,
anil the enthusiasm and energy are by no
means conlined to the junior members.
ly and by , when they have mastered the
principles of equilibrium , they may bo
rolens-ed from the bar practice and do
the name work out in the center of the
lloor and in time with the music. If anyone
ono thinks it is easy .she has but to try it
to bo convinced that a coal heaver has a
perpetual play spell in comparison.
This frivolous amusoinont assumes the
dignity of seriousness when you llnd out
that the pretty girl who lloats through n
.shadow dance waving her frills about
her like the petals of an animated a/.alea
must tumble out of bed at tin unearthly
hour in the morning , go through a half
hour's practice alone , dance another
half hour with music , and then do it all
over again in the lesson with the little
madame , over whom the attraction of
gravitation lias no power , whoso blender ,
strong ankles never weary , and whoso
litlio b ; dy has apparently no trouble
some and obstinate structure of bone.
As for how long it takes to learn , that
depends on the woman and the danco.
A graceful woman , with intelligent and
responsive extremities , sometimes Icarus
u daiico in n few lessons. Others are
obliged to take twenty or thirty lessons
to attain proficiency. S.mio women can
not acquire the art at all. A woman
not turn with the dance Instinct can
never be taught any moro than one de
void of poetic genius could learn by rote
how to write lyrics. Uusiially after 0110
or two lessons madame can tell whether
a pupil has possibilities or not and very
.frankly announces the result of her ex
amination. Occasionally most unprom
ising pupils acquire great proficiency
through hard practice and ell'ort. One
stout lady in the class , who would seem
to bo a most unfavorable subject , is
making rapid progress , and though she
will never have the charm * of lissome ,
sinuous grace , she is having perfect
larks of a time , and low.ering the record
of the scales at the same time , which is
a greater delight to her than the thin
woman can know.
Klr-klnc to .Music.
As for what dances are most popular
with the lady pupils , that is
not easy to determine. Mmo. Km-
ger lias been originating dunces
over since she twirled on her toes in her
tights and tarlotuu. A lady hears a bit
of musio that she likes and brings it to
the Icsst n. With the music for inspira
tion and the dances for n focus tljo
teacher invents adancepeculiarly suited
to both. The minuet is greatly fancied
now. The saraband in which Ada Rohan
stops a slow and stately measure in "The
Foresters , " the gavotte , and especially
every movement into which the kick can
bo introduced , all are taught and
mastered in the little hall behind the
folding Foreons.
After the pupils are gone the little
danscuso picks up a tambourine gay with
Hying ribb ns , and shaking it until all
the clashing bells tinkle she floats about
the room in pretty Spanish dances , full
of fire and feeling , lightly and merrily ,
as if stupid pupils were a bad dream , the
pretty daughter n myth , and the spell of
the old days when the people cheered
while she posed and pirouetted was upon
her. And out of the Spanish dance she
trips into one of the now skirt dances ,
with n side skip and a kick , a whirl and
again a kick , a backward bond and pose ,
the bare arms over her head , the folds
of the wide skirt fluttering like en
ormous wings from her shoulders. And
so , again , into the glide and gracious
courtesy of the minuet , and elY again
into another skirt dauco , with a pretty
tap , tap , tap of the satin too , a kick , a
glide , another kick , and then a twirl
upon the pointed tees. Madame does not
wear the long skirt , neither does her
gown measure the thirty yards in cir
cumference. It is loft short on purpose
to lot the pupils see the stops , and , inci
dentally , to notice the beautiful curve of
the ankles in their thin , line stockings.
Madame has been emancipated to that
state of true artistic feeling when every
member of the body is equally worthy of
honor , and when no positive disgrace
attaches to being possessed of shapely
extremities.
"No , " she said in the talk , "I haven't
a good photograph. They don't know
was to pose you. The last one they said
who goad , but , though cue leg was fair
the other was in such a bad position that
it looked perfectly btrnight and as largo
at the ankle as anywhere else. I don't
call that good , do you ? It was only the
face thut was like mo. "

REVIEW OF THE MARKETS
Affairs on Wall Street Are in an Abnormal
Condition ,

* Letter i : | ilulni Ute Situation
I'liiiincliil Nutc.ii
NBW YOIIK , March B. Henry Clews ft
Co. In their weekly flnnncl.il review say :
Affairs In Wall street are in im entirely
abnormal condition. The value of Invest
ments Is In only n secondary sense regu
lated by Intrinsic conditions. Outside in
fluences of an extraordinary character nro
the controlling factors ; and as those in
fluences are of a fitful , uncertain and oven
serious character they are producing con
siderable demoralization and afford unusual
opportunities for the attacks of boar specu
lators.
The virtual disruption of the Heading com
bination and the placing of that notiip.tuy
atrnin In the hands of receivers has been a
serious addition to the demoralization aris
ing from the external Influences above re
ferred to. To a certain extent , It lias been a
shook to confidence In railroad securities ; for
it shows that , In spite of the unquestionable
Improvement In railroad administration
within late years , there is still a
danger of largo companies being plunged
into embarrassment through the unbalanced
ambition of managers to undertake exten
sions ami responsibilities for which their re
sources are adequate. The downfall of
Heading has Injuriously affected a wide
range of properties which have become In
one way or another involved in Mr. MoLeod's
schemes of annexation , and this fact mngnl-
lles the effects of the adverse influences with
which the market is having to contend.
Other Ht-onritloH AUt-cU-il.
The sensitive st'lto of feeling thus pro
duced very naturally spreads to other kinds
of securities which do not enjoy the rull con
fidence of the market. A largo proportion
of "industrial" scrip must bo ranked in that
exposed class. The value of those Issues Is
is yet very violently fluctuating. The "in
dustrials" are , at the moment , the really
weak point in the market. Hut for this fac
tor and the apprehension of moro active
money , the feeling would be much moro
buoyant than It Is ; for , In respect to the
general run of legitimate Investments , there
is a general concurrence of opinion that , In
trinsically , they are in a healthy condition.
The monetary derangements , to which the
present unhealthy state of the market Is
mainly attributable , show little or no Im
provement. The ofllcial statement of the
country's imports for the month of January
has occasioned some surprise. Contrary to
common expectation , the Imports of incr-
chandiso were $21,000,000 , in excess of those
of last year , while the exports show a de
crease of 13,000.000 : tlio net results being
that the first month of Ib'JIi exhibits an ex
cess of $10,000,000 of Imports over exports ,
while last year the exports exceeded the
Imports by fcST,400.000. These facts show
that the largo exports of gold
since January 1 are much less due to the
special demand for gold from Franco and
Austria than has been generally supposed ;
that , in fact , the loss of gold Is more duo to
causes connected with commerce than to the
wide-spread monetary derangements that
are inducing foreiirn Mule's to replenish their
stocks of gold. This is not an entirely un
welcome conclusion , for irregularities in
commercial movements are usually followed
by. corresponding reactions , nnd It may quite
possibly turn out that tlio prospective experts -
ports of gold ordinarily incident to the
Spring months will be diminished by the ex
cessive outflow of the last two months.
Ungenerous Policy of the Hunks.
The depleted condition of the Treasury
gold balance still hangs threateningly over
Wall street. The strange thing is that the
uanks should bo so backward in coming to
the relief of the government. In reality ,
tlio trouble seems a simple one us to Its
cause , and by no means a difficult onu as to
its remedy. The situation has arisen from
the fact that , in the ordinary course of busi
ness as between the treasury and the banks ,
the treasury has como to hold less than Its
usual amount of "free gold , " while the
banks have correspondingly Increased
their holdings of that metal. Since
this accident In an entirely normal
drift of exchanges has brought the treasury
close to an infringement upon a pledged reserve -
servo of gold which would injuriously affect
the public credit , what real objection could
the banks present to exchanging say $25,000-
OOOof their extraordinary stock of gold for an
equal amount of United States notes hold by
the treasury ( The transaction would Involve
no rciiltn obJtetloimWe reduction of the specie
portion of their reserves which is now abun
dant whilst It would place beyond doubt
the legal tenders which are throitcned by
the low condition of the treasury "free gold. "
The legal tenders received by the banks In
this exchange would answer all this purpose
just as well as the gold with which they
parted ; the treasury would bo put In ti
strong position , and all the talk and needless
alarm about the government being in danger
of suspending gold payments would vanish.
It is passing strange why the banks should
hesitate to take this simple remedy and
prefer to compel thu government to Issue a
loan , which after all would have to bo taken
by gold drawn out of the banks. The bunks
on the seaboard cities are unwisely Incurring
a serious responsibility by needlessly pro
longing a needless agony through an un
generous dog-ln-tho-manger policy.

Vlcwn of the Miirkrt ax.SutMi by tlio Chicago
OporutorH.
CHICAGO , 111. , March 5. Pardrldgo &
Leoming's weekly letter on the condition of
the market says :
Many cables sent abroad this week offerIng -
Ing Hour at the lowest prices of the season
have met with no response whatever , and
this , too , with the May price for whcafcaround
TOccnts. Whatever contracts are in force
for flour for delivery In the next two months
are on a basis with 05 to 70-ccnt wheat. The
fancy article known ns No. U wheat has been
knocked about ns if a foot ball by tlio great
players on 'change.
The enthusiasm over the unsuccessful
hatching out of the Hatch bill lifted the ball
to almost seaboard figures , On sober second
thought the trade concluded that It took too
much money and muscle to wrestle with
some 88,000,000 bushels of grain in Chicago
with every prospect of its reaching -10,000,000
before any of it can bo moved out. Bulls and
bears have each taken Innings and done so
whllu the others have been at lunch. Warm
sunshine alternating with March blizzards
has inspired the scalping fraternity on the
way to business. The reflection on the way
homo at night was that March weather is
tickle and deceptive. t
May wheat around 0 cents In New York ,
78 cents In Daltlmoro nnd 75 cents in Detroit
and Toledo , looks somewhat cheaper than
Chicago price with July 'J cents below In
Chicago and n rent to a cent nnd a half
higher than the May prlro In other markets.
The Important Items of news the coming
week will bo the amount of grain lit farmers'
hands. It Is a fashion of the trade prior to
the publication of government figures to
work Itself up into n fear that there may
exist u great shortage , only to Und that
those fears are groundless.
> Vlii' t nnil Cora Htorkn.
The primary receipts have kept up daily
under the worst kind of weather nml If the
publication from the northwest that there
are still ! i5,000,000 bushels of wheat up there
to como forward from this crop , is anywhere
near correct , there will probably bo a sur
prise in store when the amount is published
on the 10th , Wo should say a conservative
estimate on wheat would bo 125,000,000
bushels , and 075,000,000 bushels of corn.
The export trade has been of less volume
nnd looks us if it might continuo so , It
Europe has average ! crops this season wo can
hardly expect to export ut the rate of the
past two years.
The chief reliance for batter prices rests
on the weather and manipulations. The
spring months usually bring rapid and wide
fluctuations In prices , und the tlrst days of
March have given a good send-otT ,

OETAHA BOHEMIANS.
Important ICloinont with rWaiiy Soclnl anil
Oilier .Societies.
More than 8,000 persons of Bohemian
nationality live within the city limits of
Omaha and 1,500 in South Omaha. By their
numbersitheirclannishness and their preser
vation of the customs 'of their old country
they are among the .most Interesting of all
Omaha's polyglot population. Fraternity
and fellow feeling are the characterizing
traits in the Bohemian residents of this coun
try , and when a body of them gather to-
etlier it is a source of much pleasure to
strengthen the tics of kindrcdshlp and to
speak together of the beloved native land beyond -
yond tno sea. Although preserving fond
memories of their mother country , they are
yet for the most part loyal citizens of the
United States , and from the ranks of the Bo-
licmlan citizens have sprung n number of
men prominent in affairs of state and govern
ment.
The largest Bohemian colony nnd the one
best known is that on the South Side. The
Bohemians began to reach Omaha about
thirty years ago. The first emigrants were
mostly laborers in poor circumstances , and
it is highly creditable to tlieni that they
have grown with the city and arc now in ex
cellent circumstances. Most of the Bohem
ian residents are prosperous nnd well-.o-do
citizens.
After the Bohemian schools the leading
factor in the Bohemian circles are
the societies. Among these the Bo
hemian Gymnastic association , "Sokol , "
with two societies , "Tel. Jednotn Sokol"
and "Tel. Jednota Sokol Tyrs , " holds the
first place. This organization extends all
over the United States , nnd tha executive
has his headquarters in Milwaukee. Wis ,
The Bohemians have their C. S. P. S.
organizations with a system by which it pays
benefits to members , and its branches are
extended over the whole country wherever
a number of natives of Bohemia are gathered
together. They have also lodges of Knights
of Pythias and independent Order of Odd
Fellows , two singing societies , dramatic
sections , Young Ladles' Gymnastic society ,
lodge of Ladies' Benevolent ns.lociution J. C.
D. , educational nnd political clubs , etc. , with
six Bohemian societies in South Omaha.
The Bohemian Kninan Catholic union has
one church in Omaha and one in South
Omaha , with seven benevolent and other so
cieties with stress on the religious feature ,
but patriotic in their aims. As a matter of
fact the free thinkers and Catholics of Bo
hemian nationality are , since IComensky's
celebration , moro friendly between them
selves and members of each other's societies.
This is strongly miltked now in their social
'
gatherings ns well a'siin politics.
Most of the Bohemians are employed in the
small trades or as laborers in the mills , the
yards and in mnnufwjtories. Of course they
have their merchants among them , but with
a few notable exceptions they have not en
tered the professions , except to have among
them their own editors , publishers , doctors ,
lawyers and priests. Without exception
their condition us tttfUnnnco has Improved by
their emigration to : this country.
A committee ot the Bohemian gymnasts ,
"Tel. Jed. Sokol , " hap been recently formed
to erect a now Bohemian hall , which will
probably bo built the coming year. For the
bcncfltof the building committee of "Sokols"
an enjovnblo entertainment \\ith n grand
fair and festival will'bo given in May. The
preparations arc Ixilng made already. The
now hall will have a modern gymnasium ,
school , club , bath rooms , theater , with res
taurant , etc. ' -v

tleVy < > . , I.DHL'S HIT l.ll'ii In n I'lre.
NEWCASTLE , Wyo. , March 5. [ Special Tol-
cgram to Tun Hue. ] A lire , in which Mary
Miller , a dissolute woman was burned to
death , occurred hero at ! t o'c ock this morn-
Ing. The fire department quickly responded
and although the burning house was a frame
building and situated In a row of wooden
buildings , the fire was confined to the build
ing In which It started. The origin of the
tire Is not positively known , but it Is sup
posed to have been caused by an over
turned lamp. As the whole upper story of
the house was In flames when the alarm was
given , nothing could bo done to get the
woman , who was supposed to bo In her room ,
out until the lire had been extinguished.
Had it not boon for the efficiency of the
volunteer lire department and the excellent
system of waterworks with which Newcas
tle is supplied , n largo part of the business
iKirtlou of the town would doubtless have
been destroyed.
