Brutal Apache
"The Apaches are gen

dance is moro or I03S aero

brutish passion and jeal
ousy, the woman affeutioi.
and fear."
Story by Margaret Hub
br.rd Aycr. Sketch by
i
Uy MARGARET HUBBARD AYER,,
In the lowest slums of Paris live the
Apaches who have taken the name of
the red man In vain. They have never
seen an Indian and it's safe to say that '
that no Indian would look at a French j
Apache except to watch him dance.
The French Apache Is tho most de
graded denizen of the Paris underworld .
and Is about as low as one can get. But j
like all French peoplo ho retains his ar
tistic temperament and turns It Into cash.
He la generally a thief at least, or
something much worse, and he glories
In the many gory and hideous crimes
whloh the much frightened public Tay at
his door, There are great gangs of
Apaches, some of them doing a thriving
business at picking pockets, and others
making even more money by exploiting
their unusual dances before the eyes of
those "Oht so dear foreigners!"
Of course, the crimes of the Apaches
are many, but they are not as many at.
he would have one believe. The Apache,
however, bases his fantastic and terri
fying reputation for crime on a very
solid foundation of passion and lawless
ness, and the real Apache dance ends in
an exhibition of extraordinary brutality
should the temperamental thief happen
to be In the mood to beat the girl on
whom he Is lavishing his attentions for
the moment
I Tho Araches uted to dance In the low
1 dives and cafes of Paris, ana after some
gieat haul had been pulled off, the ex
hibition of dancing and drinking would
startle the most blase of old rounders.
Humors of these dances came up to the
bored world of the rich and some .ven
turesome souls. caefully guided, and

Dance of the Pans

even their jaded nerves got a new sensa
tion. Novelists and writers went to these
places and saw the dances In "search of
atmosphere," they said.
Sometimes the writers were women and,
of course, they told other people "how
terrible it all was and how degraded those
people were and' how It shouldn't bo
allowed," and then every one was Just
wild to see the show.
night here the Apaches woke up. Hera
was an easy way to part the trusting
stranger from his inoney without danger
from the police. The Apache dance was
commercialized like all of Paris' amuse
ments, and the Apache and his gtr.
danced wherever they could, at cabaret
shows and theaters.
The Dance des Apache Is famous all
over the world now and It will always
be Interesting, because It tells a story,
the etruggle of love, the love of the
woman against the brutal lnitln:ts of
the thug, her lover. The dance varies
with each interpretation and even the
outcome differs. Sometimes the glti Is
beaten, sometimes she softens her lover's
heart.
The dancers are dressed In th rosfrne
worn by the Paris laborer and hit sweet
heart. A coat of velveteen, long trousers
of dark cloth or velveteen and a ''ash ind
tie of brilliant color, usually red, for the
man. while the girl wears a tight .fitting
black dress or a plain shirtwaist and
skirt.
The Apaches are generally young, and
thrlr dance Is more or less acrobatic.
The man expresses brutish pssslon and
Jealousy; the girl, affection and fear. She
always Is terrified as well as fascinated
by her Apache, no matter what his pro
testations of love may be, for his mad
temper and tremendous strength have led
hint Into e'd!-y kind of crime
The music Is any popular strain that

Underworld
changes In constant rhythm. The Apache
approaches and waltzes quietly, then
grabs the girl and whirls her around.
If he is strong enough he lifts her to
his shoulder. Hhe Is agile, docile and
fearful at the same time. He unties his
scarf and passes It around her neck,
holding It tight.
She leans her weight against It and
they whirl giddily about. Suddenly he
becomes Jealous. You feel danger In the
air. It Is the story of Bill Bikes and
Nancy in "Oliver Twist." The girl tries
to run away, but she Is caught. She tries
to pacify him, but he becomes more and
more enraged, their dance grows fast
and furious, her streaming hair and hts
violent efforts to throw her to the floor
makd it seem like a fight rather than a
dance, and In a way It Is the fight of
two strong, wild, young animals.
In the original dance the girl usually
called a halt when she had been thrown
to the ground often enough, but In the
stage versions she Is generally murdered
a proper ending to the lowest and most
brutal form of danoe.

Many lads and many lasses .

But the Dream-Day swiftly passes
And the night comes on apace.
Then the rosy tint grows faded
And the senses, worn and Jaded,

That we've lost our days of grace.
Still when we have reached the Westland,
To a weary soul the Bestland,
And ore dreaming of the Blestland

Some Cow Talk
By ELBERT nUBBABD.
The other night, about 9 o'clock, a barn
caught fire two miles north of East
Aurora, on the Buffalo turnpike. We saw
the smoke and tho flames, and a half
vn Jumped
Into an auto and
hiked out to see
If we could be of
help.
There wasn't
anything we could
do, however. The
fire had caught
In the hay mow
by the careless up
turning of a lan
tern. All we could
do was just to
stand around and
watoh the barn
burn.
And as we stood
there a cow out
back of us came
bursting through the line of mow anil
boys. She was bellowing and In great
dlstresBL We tried to head her off. But
It was no use. She shot past uk and went
straight into the door of the burning
barn.
"What's the ' matter with that 'ere
cow?" said a fellow near ma
And the owner of the cov, standing
by, answered: "She has n naif a couple
of days old. We got all the cows out,
and the calves, too, but thl cow and
her calf got separated, and sho thinks
her calf Is In the barn." ,
And so the cow was just .iwatlownd up
by the' flames and smoke, and that was
the last we saw of her.
Her own welfare was nothing when the
Interests of her baby were Involved.
Mother love was supreme, and life was
a thing to fling away for love's sake.
Of course, the cow never thought It
out that way. Cows do not reason thy
act This cow Just, obeyed the dictates of
her nature the cow nature.
The cow Is a mammal. She gives milk,
and this milk, so far as nature Is con
cerned, has but one purpose, and that Is
to feed the calf. But man appears on
the scene, nnd taking advantage of the
cow's material Instinct, banks on It and
appropriates the milk.
Now, here comes a peculiar situation.
In New England, about fifty years ago,
foodstuffs being very much In demand, a
smart Yankee made the discovery that,
Instead of letting the new-born calf re
main with Its mother, he could take the
calf away immediately after It was born,
carrying it off to an adjoining barn,
where Its mother could not hear It bleat
and cry, and after going without food
for twenty-four hours this calf, In Its
ravenous hunger, would learn to drink

Dear Mlii Fairfax: I am deeply In

know this girl to speak to. How could I
make her acquaintance? L. P. M.
Be patient and you will some day find
the friend who wljl Introduce you. But
don't think because you like a girl's
smile that you love her. To claim love
"on such slight ground Is to make sport of
the word.
The Qlrl Has My Sympathy.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a young man
of 22 years and am In live with a young
lady seven years my senior. We love
each other very much. Bhe is wealthy
and If we were to gat married I would
not have to go to business. Do you ap
prove of such a plan? Also do you think
the difference In our ages would Interfere
with our happiness? J, A, J.
A strong, able-bodied man of 22 years
who counts on a life of ease because his
lady love has money is too worthless to
make any woman happy.
The difference in your age doesn't
count It Is your disposition that will
make-the trouble.
No.
Dear Miss mairrax: i am 17 and am
considered good looking. I know a man
four years my sentor. For about four
months he has called to see me twice
a week In the place of my employment
He Is always telling me ot the amusement
places he knows, but he never asks me
to go out wun mm. aiao m ma ua

Do you think he cares about me?

If he cares for you, It Is In such a sel
fish war his regard will not bring you
any happiness. Be assured of this. All
Iron-clad resolutions not to take glrla

milk Instead of taking it In the good fid
natural way, as babies do.
Then the Yankee, Instead of giving the
calf pure milk, such as nature provides,
gave It skimmed milk. This was surely a
Yankee trick.
But a calf fed that way is never sleek,
round, happy nnd fat. though it may live.
Then the Yankee gradually diminished
the amount of skimmed milk for skim
med milk has a certain value and he put
In bran or meal. The calf's digestive ap
paratus not being exactly fitted for
coarse food would die. In truth, one calf
out of ten. treated In this way, goes on a
hunger strlka and Is starved to death.
All of this was In the line of eoonomles.
Milk was too valuable to feed to calves
that's the Idea and a substitute was de
vised. The Idea spread throughout New Eng
land and neighboring states and all of
the districts known as "The Dairy
Country," stretched toward the middle
west, adopted the scheme of taking
calves away from their mothers as socn
as they were born.
The habit has grown, simply because
the farmer figures it out that milk Is
too valuable to feed to calves.
The Hollanders and the dwellers In the
Isles of Jersey and Guernsey break even
with the calf. They do business on a
basis of fifty and fifty, as the theater
managers say. It's a race between you
and the calf and this kind of treatment
evolved what Is known as "The Great
Milk Breeds."
Man haB a wonderful brain. He Is con
tinually Intent on getting the start of
Clod Almighty, but In tliis thing of rais
ing cows for milk he has overdone it
A new-born calf weighs 100 pounds on
an average. So, say, $3 a hundred against
$8 a hundred Is dog cheap (I trust I use
tho right word.) And while there are
laws everywhere against the sole of "bob
veal," yet the law, being administered
by men, is sometimes valueless.
There are markets where improper food
is allowed to be sold that Is, tubercular
hogs, sickly cattle, bob veal everything
goes, and the law doesn't known any
thing about it.
The trouble is not with the "Beef trust;"
It Is with the farmers, the calf-buyera
and the cannibals, who are willing to eat
a new-born calf.
My plea Is for the cow and the calf.
If we're going to raise a fine type of milk
cows in this country we have got to en
courage mother-love in the cow and give
the calf the food that is naturally its
due. Cows and calves have a few rights.
even If they are not recognized In the
Constitution.
Man has the power to oppress, to de
stroy, not only other men. but the en
tire brute creation. Not only must man
be on good terms with his neighbors, but
he should be on good terms with the
entire animal creation. The fact that
every animal runs qr files on the ap
proach of a man Is an indictment of the
way man has treated the brute creation.
We are still eating animals, but let us
be as decent about It as we can. And
the end of the argument is that tt Is a
wrong thing that the law allows the kill
ing of 9,000,000 veals a year, with one
natural result the continual ascending
scale In the price of milk and beef pro
ducts. The Argentine is wiser than we. It
hasva law making It a felony to kill any
female of the cattle species that Is under
years old. And the result Is that In
the Argentine there Is no cattle famine.
We are looking that way anxiously and
longingly for food supply. And this will
be so until we right-about face and do
justice to the cow and her calf.
