THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1913.
Society
By MELLIFIOIA. Thursday, September 4, 1913,
THE now danceo.arc gaining; in popularity for ball room society enter
tainments, but they aro being expurgated, and only the decorous,
graceful dances will! remain.
"Of, all the 'speed' dances which bare been analyzed by tho
International Association of Masters of Dancing, now in session at Bridge
port, Conn., tho 'Tango,' the 'Hesitation' waltz, the 'Hltchy Koo' and tho
'Peacock Glide' aro all right if danced with decorum." This is tho opinion
laid down after first consideration of the steps in tho dances. F. H. Kelly
of Uolyoko, Mass., secretary of the association, declared that the
Turkey trot,' the 'Horse trot and tho 'Grizzly Bear' were vulgar. "Wo
will never -recognlzo them," he said. "The '.dancing, is from the hips up,
instead of from the hips down, 'as is proper. It' ia not so much what the
turkey trotters do with. their foot; that does not count It Is the position
Vrhlch leads to vulgarly.". ; '(
The associaion during; its.' session will; unify -tho steps of the opprovod
dances in order to teach. there correctly.

URE IS TO REFUSE PAYMENT
School Board Treasurer ii Served
Before Cashing Warrants.
WARRANTS ARE DEPOSITED '
Secretary of School Board Dram J
Them Before Injunction la Is j
snerl by JndR-e Engllnh
, President SlRns Them. 1
City Treasurer W. O, Ure, treasurer
ex-otflclo of the school district ot Omaha,
will refuse to honor th warrants Issued
by W. T. Rourke, secretary of tho Board
of Education, to President E. Uolovt
Chlner and Superintendent E. U. Graff
In tho sum total ot $331 to payl their ex
penses on an Inspection trip Jf eastern
schools, The two board members drew
their warrants before E. A. Smith had
secured an Injunction enjoining the pay
ment of the money. Tho warrants 'ere
deposited by Orntf and Holovtchlner in
the bank to their credit and Immediately
afterward before the warrants reached
the treasurer's office for payment Uro
was served with an injunction.
"If I paid those warrants it would be
out of my own funds," said Treasurer
.lire. "I have been enjoined. from paying
them and certainly will not do so."
Graffs, expenses -on this trip were $163,60
and Holovtchlner returned a bill for
1161. CO. Secretary Rourke issued th war
rants payable nut of the contingent furtd
of the Board of Education, Holovtchlner
signed the warrants and they were then
Issued- and deposited. Previously the
school board had as a body .authorized
the expenses of the trip, which was pri
marily to' attend tha International Con
vention on School Hygiene In Buffalo
and secondarily to Inspect technical
schools In other cities.
- Holovtchlner laancn fltntement.
Dr. Holovtchlner has Issued the follow
ing signed statement regarding tho In
junction: I have served cn the Board ot Educa
tion without any compensation whatever
for nearly five years. I know positively
that my service and work for the benefit
of education and the schools of Omaha
has cost me about $1,000- a year, due to
the neglect of my own private business
and actual money spent out ot my own
pocket. If the court should decldo that,
after the Bonrd ot Education has directed
me to investigate tho status of technical
high schools In different cities, I should
stand my own expense for that work, I
shall cheerfully abide by the decision of
tne court ana return tne im spent tor
ten dayn' travel In the east I shall cvon
go further than that. I will not -suffer
Mr. Graft ta spend his own money on a
mission for .the Board of Education, but
will relmburso the school district treas
urer out of niy own funds the $160 spent
by him for the good of education and
the school system ot Omaha.

FEDERAL CASHHOT YET HERE
Clearing House Still Awaiting Ar
rival of Crop Moving Loan.
DIVISION IS STILL UNDECIDED
Disposition of the Entire Amount
Between Omsks and Lincoln .
Ranks lias Not Yet Been
Determined Upon.
None of the crop moving fund allotted
Nebraska hanks from the federal treas
ury has as yet shown up. Nothing fur
ther has been heard by the Omaha, clear
ing house since the secretary ot tne
treasury set aside $1,300,000 to facilitate
moving the grain crop In the state O1I4
fall. Just how the money is to be appor
tioned between Omaha and Lincoln and
how It Is to bo divided among the vari
ous banks of these. two cities will not be
known until further word Is received from
Washington,
Thero Is no particular hurry, bankers
and grain men say, as the bulk Ot the
ctop moving has not yet begun. Although
the grain receipts In Omaha for August
were enormous und far greater than In
any other month In the history ot the
market here, grain men aver, that little
more than one-fifth ot the wheat crop
alone has been moved In the state.
The groin receipts at the Omaha drain
exchange since the first ot the month
are not keeping pace with the average
receipts ot August, which wf re record
breakers. The price Is keeping up well,
but grain men say the farmers are be
glnn'cg to hold back a little on account
of tho possible shortage of corn.

Howell Arouses the
Ire of More Water
: Userof This City
Frank Brown",' hay and grain man of

Water district Is attempting to forcu him
to pay 60 cents per front fpot for a water
n aln -he . built recently at his own ex
pense across two lots to serve sl houas
on a third lot he owns In Florence.
Brown believes the water board has no

tactics by Water 'Commissioner It.

received a bjll from. Howll for the last
three months -for water 'at tho rate of
)1.89 "per month,' ' although one of thH
periods was for. six weeks. He Is a'
metered, consumer and Is Unablo tq un
derstand why the board should charge a
flat rate. When ha appeared at the
water board office and asked for an ex
planation he was told:
"Your meter will be Inspected If you
will pay us It"
George says the miter has nut- been
read and the bills ' were 'presented for
one qnd then for two months.
"It's an outrage," said Mr. Georgs.
"and It that. Is the sort . of thing this
water board Is doing It's time for the
consumers, to assert thetr rights."
