FEW DANCERS GO TO THE MASK BALL Social Leaders and Governor Chaperon Event, Which Waa V on Elaborate Lines. NUMBER IS DISAPPOINTING The mask ball at the Den last night was a pleasant affair, but the attend ance , might have been much larger without taxing the capacity of the building."; In fact, there were only about 150 spectators. There were, possibly, 250 to 300 dancing. ' - There was a big orchestra and all the beautiful settings of the castle of the king, just as they were the night before when the king was crowned. The mask ball started off, like the coronation ball, with the appearance of sixty dancing girls in flowing robes of green and yellow and red, sugges tive of woodland colors. Several of the girls were only 3 to 5 years old and their dancing and pirouetting won great applause. ' The evening dress of a number of social leaders blended with the cos tumes of the other maskers, the nurse, the bad man of the west, the Mexican. Dutch boy, iockey, toreador, "rube, lady of the harem, Japanese, convict, Arab and so on. The Ak-Sar-Ben t governors Were there also in their evening togs, among those noticed being Messrs. .

While the fly ing visit of the German war submarine to Newport harbor was ' the main topic of discussion among navy offi cers tonight, it was the probable mis sion of the submarine which interested them rather than the mechanical fea tures of the submersible or the signi ficance of its trip from Germany as it might affect naval warfare. t: ; The distance covered by the sub marine from Wilhelmshaven is well within the cruising radius of much smaller vessels than the U-53, includ ing some of the older craft of the American navy. . However, it is be lieved that even the big "U" boats could not carry enought fuel oil for a round trip across the Atlantic as well as for a tour of cruising duty on this side. For this reason many of ficers appeared to believe that the purpose of the U-53 must have been more to give a demonstration ot the possibilities - of submarine warfare than actually to lie in wait for British or Canadian vessels plying across the Atlantic. , Much Greater Sensation. The merchant submarine Deutsch land crossed the Atlantic and i re turned, but it is realized that the ap pearance of an armed naval under water boat will create a much more profound impression, particularly upon the public mind in this country. It was expected that the visit would revive immediate rumors of a German submarine base on the north Atlantic coast and of . secret radio . stations maintained along the American coast line by German interests for the pur pose of communicating with the un dersea boats. , For a submarine patrol off Ameri can or Canadian ports, provision would have to be made to supply the fuel, -torpedoes and food supply. The average submarine carries not more than, ten or twelve torpedoes at most and since the chances are that several of these would be fired for every hit recorded, it would seem necessary that a reserve supply be kept close at nana. - Women Held Not Guilty Of Shooting Her Husband Sioux Falls, S.

A large and vigorous ant-lion (it was only half an inch long, but big enough for its world), stood, as if hesitating, in the midst of a sunny sand plain, several yards; square, across which a crazy-seeming ant now and 'then ran a crooked course in search of something it could not find, while once a gilded chrysomelian beeter, a dazzling, living emerald, frolden green above and purple green below, alighted for an instaiit,iily to disappear in a flash of jeweled fire. The ant-lion regarded the ants, and perhaps the brilliant beetle,, with satisfaction. Their appearance seemed to put an end" to its hesita tion.. It stretched wide its long, forceps-shaped mandibles just once, as a tiger will unsheath his teeth ,at sight of his prey, and then it set itselt in motion, going DacKwaras, after the immemorial fashion of its ancestors. It was an ugly beast, with its large, square' head, and its oval, dull gray, warty body shaped like a wood louse, and its movements were slow and deliberate, so much so, indeed, that an onlooker might have wondered what danger could threaten such agile creatures as ants from so cumbersome an enemy as this. The ant-lion had hardly taken its first backward step when another of its kind, evidently young and in experienced, approached from the shelter of a neighboring grass tuft, and immediately the big fellow, as naturally as if he had been a two legged hoer of corn, stopped, and, metaphorically leaning on his hoe, fell into conversation with his visitor. "Good day," he . said. "It's good weather for ants and there are Jots of thenr. about here. They're good eating, too. Have yon come to learn how .to catch them? If so, now is your chance, for nobody understands that business better than I do." I suppose I ought to know bv nature," replied the youngster, "but I'm willing to learn from such an old headjas you." , i nen watch me. The old fellow thereupon resumed his scarcely begun labor, and his new companion followed .all his motions with curiosity. Thrusting the end of his abdomen into the soft sand, the worker plowed backward with all the strength of his six stout, hairy legs, and with a geometrical instinct ri valing that of a bee marked out a perfect circle about nine and and a half inches in circumference, or three inches across. .1 There I" he exclaimed when the circle was finished. "That's done, and you'll never see a better." If he had been familiar with hu man history (which no doubt he would have despised as a jiack of yarns about absurd giants) he might have compared his teeatj with that ot Romulus when he plowed the out lines of his coming city. , Ihe next proceeding of the ant- lion would have been a lesson to canal I builders. He placed himself at the inner edge of the circular fur row and, moving Slowly backward, 4ncourwement& tfmr.

Round and round went the won derful insect, making circle within circle, each at a lower level, because, -with an instinct to which science could have taught nothing, he always used as inside leg to scoop up the sand, and never an outside one. Thus, when at length he reached the center, he was at the bottom of a conical excavation in the sand, all of the materia! that had filled the space having been thrown outside the circumference of the bounding circle. The depth of the excavation was about two inches, so that the" sandy walls were as steep as they could be made without caving in. During this triumphant exhibition , of the highest skill and knowledge ' of his race, the younger ant-lion re mained at the brink of the circular cavity, peering down with increasing interest and receiving frequent warn ings from the busy worker below to keep out of the way and to stop roll ing sand down. Presently, provoked by the awkwardness of the visitor, who incautiously sent an avalanche down into the pit, the excavator mut tered: "I'll fix you, young fellow!" He had just come upon a pebble in the sand half as big as himself. With astonishing jstrength and skill, lie worked it upon his head and, exerting all his force, he hurled it with unerring aim, taking the dis turber full under the jaws, like an uppercut in the prize - ring, lifting him from his feet smd rolling him over. But he was tough ant-lions, naturally . are and no bones, or their equivalents, were broken. "Now." called the big fellow, "my work's finished. Slide down and do as I tell you.
