Now that the cotillion Reason Is nhortly to be Inaugurated , It may not be out of place to review Home of the new figures that will bo danced this year by the swells of New York , Xoston nnd Philadelphia. The cotillon Is thu fin tie slcclo dance , and no wonder , for It can bo managed to suit Cvcry age , taste nnd home , Tlio fnvors may be mere trifles , a vin aigrette , for Instance , or costly gifts a bouquet holding a Jewel in Its heart The figures for the gcrmnn , however , arc more difficult to arrange than nre the gifts. The ono who Invents a new figure Is usually re garded as n benefactor to the -world the world of dancers. , The bell figure Is an amusing ono , which can be gotten up without any previous ar rangement beyond providing a small hand belt. belt.A A , chnlr Is placed In the middle ot the room , on which Borne cavalier takes Ms scat , bell In hand. This he rlngi at Intervals , till some lady comes up to Invite him to dance. Ono youth , whose pitlcnce vvas tried by being left to toll the bell too long a time , finally settled the matter by sel.nfig tha boll with both hands and clanging away with such force itliat In self defense he If a dozen young Women rushed up to urge their hands upon Mm.

Half a dozen couples may ' this nt a time. If the foils are plentiful. Jn the pyramid figure ten ladles stand the center ot the room ; four In the first jc. three In the next , then two , then one. fyre should be a space of two feet between ' ' * m. In and out of this twines a line of ft , dozen men , hand In hand. When the leader claps his hands each seizes the lady of his choice and dances with her. The door figure Is one which requires some previous arrangement , although not nn elaborate amount. Light doorways made of laths of wood nailed together In shape like tissue paper , each door having a different the framework of n door are covered with color in order to make the scene as gay as possible. These are placed at Intervals down the middle of the room and held In position by two of the company. The dancers then waltz down the room , rushing through each of the delicate obstacles In turn. The moit effective- striking figure should always be reserved for the concluding one. The snow fall figure Is very suitable for this purpose , indeed , for obvious reasons , it must come at the end of the evening. A number of balls Riled with tiny frag ments of white paper and covered with tis sue paper ore thrown at a given signal into the air and fall In a shower of snow , through which , at the magic word "cotillon , " all dance. For Uie auction figure six rosettes -with numbers are given to the ladles. The auc tioneer requ'rcs six bonbonnleres , numbered nnd filled with sweets , and a gavel. Six ladles choose twelve gentlemen and the auc tion begins. The bonbonnleres are sold one after another to the highest bdder. no gentleman being allowed to buy more than one. After the sale the bonbonnleres are presented to the ladles whose numbers cor respond. The men who have been unable to secure boxes of sweets hav * to with draw while the rest conclude the figure with a dance. The rhyming figure Is extremely unpopular with the man , who has no poetry In his soul. A lady Invites a gentleman to danco. If ho cannot respond In rhyme on the instant she pauses to another , and so on until some embryo poet Is dlcovcred , This figure Is the opportunity or otherwise for the "mute , Inglorious Mlltoni , " with which the world Is generally supposed to be well sup plied. The mariner's compass Is a charming fig ure , somewhat similar to the ever popular May pole. To a high polo Is attached the * S dial ot a large compass made of painted cardboard , to which arc tied eight or thirty- two long variegated ribbons , on each of which Is Inscr'bed one of the thirty-two points of the compass. This cord is soon surrounded by cavallera wearing as a badge a miniature compass held with a colored S3 rosette ; behind this ring a second one is S3I formed by the young women , who each I catch hold of n ribbon , at the end of which * Is attached some pretty tritle as a gift. k They then turn around , but In an opposite direction to the men , until suddenly , at a kr kr word from the leader , the double circle is r broken , when the players divide In couples r every one showing a different shade : then follows the waltz. r A word about favors. Sachet bags , bon- t bonnlores. powder puffs , fans , whips , to bacco poucues in fancy shades , ribbons strung with silver bells , these are dainty trifles procured without too great expense. Long shepherds' crooks of pure silver , band screens of lace and ivory , beautiful fans of long ostrich plumes with handles of carved mother of pearl , cut glass vases ore also very charming as gifts , but as Mrs. Car- lylos maid would say , "very expensive.

Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Van Brunt of 2GIO Poppleton avenue very handsomely enter tained the- members of this club on Hal low o'cn. The usual typical spread of the club was temporarily dispensed with , am viands quite- appropriate to the occasion were provided. The house was handsome ! ) decorated with various agricultural products that are commonly Indispensable on sucl occasions. The evening until II o'clock was spent In. various enjoyable methods HUltablo to- - the company and entirely wlthou formality. At 11 o'clock a most bountlfu supper was served of the New Enplane character , and after supper , after a series of toasU were appropriately responded to Mr. R , C. Baughman , In a very felicitous speech , tendered his resignation us presl dent. "Mr. " Baughraao said that "he was constrained to give up the weighty cares o olflce on account ot the club requiring from him what was almost beyond his capacity nnd further , that applications from frlendi to join the. club had been so many and as he had been obliged to decline many on account of the fear that they could cot sue cessfully pass the Initiation , ho felt that he waa no Monger equal to the burden o olllce. " Jn responding to this Dr. Ulckln son cited the case at the Greek philosopher Dlogonoa , looking nbout Jhe streets of Athen In noon tlmo with a lantern , who upon being questioned for his strange actions said : "I am looking to- find , and I doubt I I can , the marvel of mankind , a man. ' The doctor said that In Bftarchlng for t president of the club that the man had been found , a man of weight , of the proper height , depth and capacity , am further it vvas shown that JIB via willing to surrender the honors of olllce something unusual for an olllce holder , am which was evidence that ho'Vas n "man" In every respect. In seconding the motion fa the nomination of Mr. Van Brunt he statei that "he had watched the Earnest endeavor of Mr. Van Brunt to mnko himself worthy of Iho office of president and had at time : marveled at his patience and had admire. his sacrifices , and that lie took pleasure- seconding his motion because It ha had no proved himself capable that he was at leas making n strenuous effort to be worthy o thu ofllce. " Mr. Van Brunt , In accepting the presidency , pledged himself not only t nerve the club to the beat ot "his capacity , ' but to retire from office the moment that I was found that ho was not nble to- fill th position to the honor and credit ot the club The- balance of the evening was spent In a. most enjoyable manner , and , as a matte ol tact , WM enjoyable until the first boor o mornlnff.which had long panted before the members were willing to depart Tor their vrn homes , which they did -with many re grets and irlth pleasant anticipations ot the next meeting of the club , which will bo In wo weeks. _ Monetary Scli-nrn nt llin ITpUy CIuD. Tha economic section at the Unity club eld Its first meeting for the year Friday venlng , the subject for consideration being 'Primitive ' Money. " Mrs. Ella. D. Perrlno ead a carefully prepared nnd instructive taper on "Emergence From the Barter Stage nnd What It Signifies ; " Prof. II. P. iewls gave a lucid exposition ot "Tho Na- ure and Functions of Money as Illustrated iy Its Origin , " while "Early Systems of Jurrcncy" were treated at length by Hev. V. M. Mann. The discussion following' the apcra was participated In by Messrs. Kll- > atrlck , Wallace , Gould , Stebblns , Newman , and others. At the opening ot the. meeting he director of the section , Mr. Charles 8. joblngler , outlined Its purpose nnd pros- icctlve work In part as follows : We gcgln tonight the second year's work of the Economic section ot this club. Our course last year consisted of B study of the ilstory of Political Economy , -with the aim if learning something of Its leading princi ples , by understanding how and when find .hrough whom they Brat came to be fonnu- ated. Having thus In our initial year's vork obtained a general vle\v ol the field to vlilcli this section IB devoted , n course In one f Its special departments ought to follow , Of all these specialties , monetary science appears to be the most fitting sequel to a general course In Economics. Monetary robletnj form the oldest , broadest and near est subject in political economy today. We are but following the historical order dis closed In the development of economic iclence ns a whole , when we pass from a study of Its general principles to the special lubject ot money. This , too , was the order ibserved by the pioneers In the science \rlstotle , who Is probably entiled to be called the first political economist , In addl- ton of his general knowledge of the subject , ; .ive special attention to money , and his deas regarding Its nature and functions arc singularly clear and modern. Among the first fruits of the renewed Interest In eco nomic studies , which accompanied the general revival of learning at the close of the Mld- llo Ages , was the treatise of Nicholas Orcsme on money , and though written in the ourteeiith century , it anticipated much of he best thought of the .nineteenth. In England , long before the appearance of the 'Wealth of Nations , " numerous treatises on money had been published , and one ot the most Important principles of the science ho so-called Greslmm's law had been clearl ) tated , earlier even than the ago of Ellztbeth Money , too. Is the most cosmopolitan of conomlc subjects It commands today the vldest Interest In every clvillze-I country , and its pre-eminence ns a , world problem ie ttested by the assembling of three Interna- lonal monetary conferences within le-js than a generation. Finally the practical Import ance of the subject Is. probably exceded b > no other of which Political Economy treats Differing upon almost every other point con cerning It. men are substantially agreed that a policy founded upon correct Ideas regarding noney is e sentlal to the welfare , both of lie Individual nnd of society These are some of the reasons for the adoption of our irasent cour.'e of study. The methods of conducting our work will lot differ much from those of last year. The nore Important mcnetary topics will be reated In papers to be read before the club , ind the order In which these will be pre sented Is itself designed to be historical , to that they may Illustrate the evolution of money as an Institution , while discussing the > roblems which It now presents. We shall iced the co-operation of all members In our study ot thU theme. Those who have given t most thought recognize It as Intricate and complicated ; Its Importance Is nowhere de- iled. Yet the opportunities for a study of tare far from satisfactory. There ought to be na place where a subject of this magnitude may be studied scientifically , free from par- Isan rancor and exaggeration ; where Its many-sided questions may bo Investigated upon their merits , and where the chief object shall be not the establishment ef a theory , > ut the discovery of truth. If this club shall afford even the beginnings of .such an oppor- unlty , our winter's work will not liave been a failure. j Tlio riilllmrmonlc Cluls Tlie Philharmonic club vvas organized Sep- : ember 21 , 1894 , with a membership of thirty , for the purpose of training the mem- brs ns a chorus , and under the leadership of Prof. II.
