Among all the skirt dancers who have blossomed the last few years there Is only one now and then who, by original methods and artLstio conception cf the possible beauties of this comparatively new form of entertainment, is able to impress her personality on the public so as to be remembered. Only a few of these have been seen In this city and among- them must be mentioned ,,Saharet,' now at the Park. "Saharet" Is a gracefully formed creature with an Oriental cast of beauty that adds no little symbolic Illusion to her performance. In her raven-b!ack hair she wears a rink rose. Her face reminds one of the features on some old medallion, painted, from a beauty In an Indian zenana. Her complexion Is fair as a child's, and her sweet, girlish face wins the audience before she hits executed a step of her wonderful dance. It is plain that she is but a girl in years.She begins her dance with a slow, circling movement, describing alternate curves with her .childish feet until her abundance of pink skirts becomes a whirlpool, of scalloped drapery. Then follow dainty dance steps introducing exclamation points of high, kicking at every revolution. The; tempo of the orchestra increase and the dance grows more furious. Shortly the flying skirts, revolving legs,. circling arms and smiling face.. -em to be fo tangled- in kaleidoscopic effect that one la at a lows to place all In their proper anatomical relation. Out of this climax the girl springs in the air, alights onher ha ml and turns a cart-wheel." With a double hand-kiss she rushes to the scenes, but is recalled again and again, until from pure exhaustion she can do no more. "Saharet"- is an Austra lian girl, and until a few weeks ago was. employed by Hoyt in "A Trip to China-" town, one nas not Deen in the country long. Her dancings has- attracted the attention of Koster, before whom she dancell in New York recently and sne will be seen at Koster & Dial's garden during the summer. . . - Lew CarrelL who Is with Fred - Rider's "New Night OwhV at the Park Theater, gives an unusually bright little sketch in the olio which is a part of the very good performance by that company of burlesquera. He has1 numerous bright sayings, . which he uses in .connection with some burlesque legerdemain. There la a great deal of good dancing. some good singing and much of the element known as "dash" about the performances Sam Collins Is especially funny in his Niagara" act, in which May Clark Van Osten aids him. His knockabout work is excellent. Cordon and Lick have a rrusieal act, Blanche Walworth some, taking songs, Saharet a dance that is sensational and the 'Princess Kuta Kuta" closes the performance.

The comlng of Loie Fuller to Indianapolis for one night next Thursday Is recognized as an important event in an already notable season. The demand for neats when the, advance sale opened yesterday shows that the people here appreciate the coming, of, . this wonderful dancer whohaiiset all Europe talking: and. who - brought all New York to her feet last month. "La Lole," in a recent interview, tells of the hard work she had hi bringing her- drapery dances - to their present state of perfection and beauty. She says: .-- ' "It took me many -weeks to educate my arms, limbs and body to the dance. The graceful manipulation of the soft draperies is an extremely difficult matter to acquire and tiresome. It was dreadful at first, but I persevered and can tio six dances in a performance now with comparative ease, although I feci the' exertion when I have finisher: and the enthusaism of the danca has desvrted me.' -When I grew to learn' the besuty of the danco I studied the literature of dancing, and in the 'Ribllotheque National.' lr Paris, I found Miriam, the sister of. Aaron, recorded as the tirst drapery dancer. The dance, as then given, was purely Ortental, and consisted more of the swaying cf the body and the moving of the arms than of any motion of the feet. The dances represented emotions, and every national event was symbolized In that way. The feet were first used in dancing at a comparatively recent date, only a few hundred years ago, and the Nautch girls of India have stolen their dance from dervishes, who twirl their skirts about them and fall in an ecstacy of religious fervor."

Usually th specialty troup Is stranded at a wayside inn. in nothing but its tferhts and trunks (not baggage). In "Zero" they are picked up as castaways by a ship bound for Mr. Xansen'a timber claim, the north pole. The company thus fortuitously" found is somewhat above the average. The cleverest specialty Is that of Valdo; the Instrurmmtdl man. who quite .rail-tfeally, &lmitates the sound of musical Instruments and machinery.

The first ball game of the season took place at the park yesterday, and the "Vets" won by -a score of 4 to 2, In six innings. The "Colts", put up a pretty stiff game, Monroe and Welmer doing the pitching for them, while Cress was in the bcx for the Vets. Hob Wood caught for the latter team, while Grim was the. Colts backstop. Butler captained the youngsters and played second base. He is quite a coacher, and evidently a tireless worker. He triei to show the Vets a new trick that of cutting first base but it didn't work, for umpire Amos Puisie had an eye on the runner, though the bleachers shouted "He didn't see It." Stewart made a one-handed stop at second that was the feature 0! the game. . It was a beauty, and set the crowd wild. Irwin, who played right field for the Colts, made a fine throw to third and nailed Roat by several feet, but Rusle called him safe. McCormlck did some clever work around third. The hitting was not heavy, as the boys have not yet got tjelr eye on the ball. Besides, the ground is perfectly dead. The fielding was excellent and at times brilliant. Monroe's work in the box was greatly admired, and Weimar's was well liked. Cross did not exert himself, but was effective Just the same. Conner appeared to be very fast. He played left field, while Johnny White was in center for the Vets. Motz and McCarthy were over by the clubhouse, in street attire, doing a little light practice while the game was In progress. The rlght-fleid. bleachers were packed, while the other side was half filled. Probably a thousand people watched the game with the liveliest satisfaction. The weather was magnificent, and the boys got the best day's practice they have yet had. They are rapidly getting in condition all of them. Indianapolis. A.B. R. H. O. A. E.

Injnwflce Done Loral Clotltlnjc; Men Centrnl Labor Lnlon'a Meeting.

1 Since the first of the year the Cincinnati garment; workers' unions have had trouble with manufacturers of that city, and a boycott was declared against several firms. Last week a representative of the Cincinnati garment workers visrted the Central Labor Union of this city and asked that the Globe Clothing Company and the Progress Clothing Company be boycotted, stating that both firms had been unfair to union labor and had patronized the boycotted Cincinnati firms. The subject was referred to the grievance committee. The committee was directed to investigate the matter fully. Before the, committee had time to act, however, the representative, of the Cincinnati organizations flooded the city with printed handbills declaring a boycott on the two stores. Last night this action was declared to have been wholly unauthorized, and the handbills were unanimously repudiated in so far as they relate to the Progress Clothing Company. The committee stated that after a conference with Messrs. Bliss and Swain, proprietors of the Progress store, it was satisfied that no clothing had been bought by that firm from the boycotted Cincinnati firms since the strike was inaugurated. The order books of the firm were submitted to the committee. Mr. Bliss attended the meeting of the Central Labor Union last night and asked permission to be heard. He said that his firm would forfeit $1,000, to be paid to the treasurer of the Central Labor Union, if the Cincinnati garment workers could show that their charges were correct. Some members of the Central Labor Union favored a motion to refer the matter back to the grievance committee for rurther consideration. Mr. Perkins declared that the circulars had been distributed by outsiders without any authority at all, and that as an injustice had been done the Progress Clothing Company it was not fair to delay action. He thought that the firm should be set right immediately, and that union men of this city should know that the boycott was unauthorized, was not supported by facts and ought to be repudiated immediately. The representative of the Cincinnati garment workers did not attempt to Justify his course in scattering the hand-, bills without authority or the. central Doay. After the circulars were repudiated as to the Progress, Mr. Bliss said that he would be glad to furnish any further proof that might be required as to the fairness of his firm towards the Cincinnati workers. A letter was read from one of the boycotted Cincinnati firms refusing to release the Progress Clothing Company from a contract for one hundred uniforms placed prior to tho strike. On this order the firm has already paid for part of the goods, which have been delivered. Further time was granted the committee to consider the charges made against the Globe Clothing Company. It is believed that that firm has been unjustly treated as well as the Progress, and the committee was authorized to give the result of its Investigation to the press as soon as it is learned that the charges are untrue. A partial investigation has been made.-It was thought that the circular should also be repudiated as to the Globe Clothing Company, as It had been circulated without the knowledge of the Central Labor Union, but It was decided to make a full investigation March 9 the Bricklayers' Union reported that work was being done on city sewers bv nonresident workmen at a lower rate than is paid union labor by local contractors. The matter was referred to Mayor Taggart, who asked thaj. a written statement of the facts be prepared for submission to the "Board of Works. A communication was . prepared, which will be sent to the board. Special attention is called to the fact that the eight-hour law is being violated. The Central Labor Union holds that the municipal authorities are directly responsible for the nonenforcement of this law where public contracts are in volved, and the board will be asked to see that the law is obeyed. Albert veregge was appointed as a member of the grievance committee, vice Mr. Sommers, who resigned. It was reoqrted that the boycott against Dickson & Taibott was not proving successful, as twenty-two union printers were seen at the Park Theater last week. Mr. Perkins said that he presumed other union men than the printers were, disregarding the bovcott. A motion to instruct affiliating bodies of the Central Labor Union to assess fines against all members seen attending Dickson & Talbott's theaters earned, the Central Union refusing to concur In the request presented by the Stage Hands' Union to concentrate the fight against the Park Theater, which, it is alleged, is attended by laboring men almost exclusively. ' THROAT CUT FROM -EAR TO EAR. Leonnrd Thornton, n Yonnic Kegro, Kails to Commit Snlclde. - Leonard Thornton, a colored man twentytwo years old, twice attempted to end t his cwn life last night. He has been living with his sister, Mrs. Anna Miller, No. 103 Eddy street. Mrs. .Miller left her brother , alone last evening. Shortly after she . left the house neighbors were startled by a pistol shot. They ran to the house, but failed to find young Thornton, who, with an old razor ly his hand, had run into the street, after an unsuccessful attempt to blarw out h!s brains. He cut and slashed at his throat, gashing himself from ear to ear. Hearing footsteps coming towards him, Thornton rar towards the center of the city. By the time he reached the California House he was completely exhausted from the loss of blood. Rushing into the hotel, he created intense excitement by his gory appearance. Blood was spurting over his hands and clothing. The clerk telephoned to the police station, n nd detective Stout and wagonman Laughlln were ordered to the hotel with the patrol wagon. Thornton was not too badly wounded to talk. He was taken to the dispensary. On the way there he told wagonman Laughlln that he had been sick aU his life and was unable to work. For the last four or flva months he ha9 resided with his sister. Tiring of burdening his relatives longer, he said he had determined to end his own life. Thornton declared that he had first tried to shoot himself, but that the revolver h-i used missed fire.- It was because the razor was too dull that he had not been successful In the second effort. From the dispensary Thornton was taken to the City Hospital. His wounds were found to be of a superficial character, and he will doubtless recover, tho hospital physicians think. The hospital physicians say that Thornton has been there before and is suffering from a constitutional disease. The revolver Thornton used, was found to contain two empty cartridges, one of which had evidently been recently discharged. The barrel was still hot. Thornton sa!d he had received the best o treatment from his sister, and begged the officers not to take him home, as he disliked to burden her longer. Mrs. Miller says her brother has recently read a great deal and seemed to be very despondent. He complained of cerebral pains. S.ie believes Ma mind is unbalanced. CARROLL COUNTY MUST FAY UP. Tax CommliKlonrr Consider the Bovren Estate Compromise. The State Board of Tax Commissioners held a meeting, yesterday morning, to consider the collection of taxes alleged to .be due the State from Carroll county.

There was a meeting of the Indianapolis Driving Club last night, at which it was determined what Indianapolis shall have in the way of horse racing this year. The time for the running meeting was fixed for the last week in May, while the trotting and pacing meeting will be held Aug. 17 to 22, inclusive. For the running meeting the club decided t offer purses and'stakes aggregating $10,000, and in the trotting and' pacing races the very magnificent sum' of $10,000 will be hung up. , The holding of running races in this city is somewhat of an experiment, as none have heretofore "been given. The club will begin the experiment with a whole week of racing, and the assurance -that the best runners o: the country will be entered. Well-known stables have already . notified the club that entries will be made. Up to date. Indiaitapolls has been the only city of any importance in the country where running meets have not been held. The Driving Club Is now In the circuit composed of Terre Haute, Columbus (O.). Saginaw and Elkhart. The sum of $10,000 which is offered Is liberal concerning the uncertainty which confronts the experiment. The club propose eto give good races, believing there are enough people in the city and neighboring country to support . them. -i The announcement concerning -the summer harness meeting is omewhat of a surprise.

There have been intimations that Indianapo lis would have no r first-class trotting and pacing this season, but the prospects point to better support than ever before. The Driving Club is now a member of ihe Grand Circuit, composed of Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland and Fort Wayne. .When Buffalo and Rochester withdrew from the circuit Indianano113 and Fort Wayne v were admitted. The result Is to bring the best horses of the country to this City. Last season, and the previous one, this city was in the Western Southern Circuit, having to compete with the Grand Circuit; The officers of the Driving Club antlotoato the membership in the Grand Circuit will bring the best stables here, and the races will, consequently, be of so high an order that the public will be In terested in them more than ever before.
