Albert Morris, . the deputy sheriff of Hammond, was attending to his pait of the work in tli? Immpfre rase which comes up today in the superior court, out here yesterday morning. Tills is the criminal trial of the man who stabbed another man lying- in a hunk at the reat lakes camp some weeks ago, and Albert was subpoenaing- witnesses. Several other officers of the Kast Chicago force were witli him. In commenting on the campaign that is raging, lie expressed himself as not at all uncertain as to its outcome, believing that Lake county can be depended upon to take care of her reputation forgetting good men in most, if not all of the offices.

The bride was gowned in white and carried a bouquet of brides roses. Miss Louise Scheldt was maid of honor and Miss May me Hoffman was bridesmaid. The groom was attended by John Hoffman and Jos. Schcidt. After the ceremony friends and relatives of the bride and groom gathered at the home of the bride where a good time was enjoyed by all.

The work of grading Adams street through the large hill next to the Wabash railroad is well under way. The hill is probably some thirty feet In height and a day's work with even a large force of teams working steadily, makes but little impression on the large quantity of sand to be removed. "With the exception of a ft w short pieces over large sloughs the work of grading the north and south .streets from Broadway to Jackson has been completed, and also for several streets beyond. The company expects if at all possible to get in the brick paving on Seventh avenue yt this fall.

Evidences of a campaign are beginning to creep in. Pictures and cards of several prominent candidates can be seen In several places. It is rumored that arrangements are being made for speeches here at a not late date by able men. The recent request for the names and numbers of prohibition voters within the third precinct cruised a consternation anions the local politicians. Up to the present no Information has come to hand showing that any one of that description resides within the confines of our city.

Mr. and Mrs. Mooday are making arrangements to build a bungaloo on Euclid avenue for the winter.

A. 1 Knotts Is attending the trial of a law suit in the superior court at Hammond, and will probably not be able to he here for several days. Mr. Illnes and his lady were here between trains yesterday. He made arrangements for applying for additional property for the proposition which he ami several other prominent White City men are backing.

KfV. D. M. Wood, presiding elder of this district for the Methodist church, and Rev. Hatton, pastor of the Methodist church at Indiana Harbor, were visitors here yesterday morning. Rev. Wood to take care of local interests and Rev. Hatton to see the new city that lias sprung up and threatens to ask his town if they might not care to come in. At a recent session of the

Quarterly conference in Hammond of the M. E. church, trustees of the First M. E. church of Gary, were elected. Rev. Wood, together with Rev. Hatton, and 'two of the newly elected trustees spent n large part of the forenoon in going over the matter of a site for the church building. They will in all probability apply for property on Seventh avenue on Adams street, and if the application is granted, will buy and build, l'or temporary purposes a small chapid will be built which will later on be incorporated In with the large church which they hope to have on the property in the not distant future. The chapel will probably be built in the spring. No attempt will be made to interfere w'.th the work now being dor:e in an undenominational wny. The postmaster was largely instrumental in choosing the location selected and if granted to the church it will undoubtedly prove a very good selection, being central, north and south and but a short distance from Broadway.

Prof. G. W. Neet left this morning for Rock Island, 111., to attend the annual meeting of the National Congress of Farmers. Mr. Noel was appoointed delegate by Gov. Hanly. Delegates are expected to be in attendance from every state in the union.

Stories of La Tensilon!. Fanny Elsvler and I.ol i .Von t ex. It Iris been nsscTteu that the yrand ballet died wluu the famous TagHoul retired in 1S45. At any rate, the ballet today is chietly a spectacle of dress and colored liiuclight. Except for a very fow performers, dancing as a high art has vanished. There is no cue now to set beside La Taglioni, who was the queen of the stage. Balzac Introduced her into his novels. Even Thackeray condescended to notice her and declared enthusiastically In "'The Neweomes" that the "young men of the day will never see anything so graceful as Taglioni in 'La .Syli'hide.' " At that time she -was the rage. Stagecoaches and greatcoats were named after her. I.a Taglioni owed her charm to a wonderful lightness and grace. Her style was rather ideal than realistic and voluptuous, as was then the vogue. The hideous ballet skirt of today she

never wore, but a skirt that reached nearly to her ankles. It was one of the principles of her father, who taught her all she learned of the art, that the dancer should be modest in dress, m movement and in expression. Another famous master, who called himself "Le Dieu de la Danse," always told his pupils to use all the coquetry they could. Vestris, who founded the famous Vestris family, was r.n eighteenth century celebrity and quite remarkably conceited even for a dancer. "There are but three great men alive," he used to say, "myself, the Prussian Frederick and Voltaire." (It is interesting to compare Southey's remark that a male dancer deserves to be hamstrung.) That profession of which he

was so proud is indeed an arduous one. Vestris used to practice for about six hours a day. A dancer must be extremely strong and supple. A curious story is told about Fanny Elssler, a German dancer with coal biack hair, which illustrates the extreme muscular strength a dancer re quires. She was crossing to America when she entered her cabin one day and discovered a thief abstracting the jewel case which she kept hidden un

der her pillow. Before he could attack her she planted her foot full in his chest and killed him on the spot. It i3 curious that no Englishwoman has ever achieved supreme success as a dancer. It is possible, as foreigners assert, that they lack the dramatic gift. It is certain that a lifelong devotion and arduous apprenticeship are essential to any expression through the medium of dancing. The "rats," the beginners at the Paris Opera, are articled for five years, and then, unless they have danced from their cradle, they cannot hops to attain the first rank. Another quality essential to the great dancer is infinite patience. The only Euglidi dancer who ever gave promise of attaining the, front rank failed in this respect. Lola Montez was the somewhat foreign name she had taken. She lost her temper one day with the manager at rehearsal and expressed her feelings so dramatically as to break an umbrella over his bead. Managers will endure much for art's sake, but this was too much. Carlotta (irisi is another famous name of the old opera. It was she who first introduced the polka into England a Bohemian dance that came to stay. It was for her, too, that Heine, Gautier and Adolphe Adam collaborated in writing "Giselle."

There were a score more famous names that were familiar words in those days. Of the twelve leading

dancers engaged at the King's theater In 1824 for a two months' season five were a sufficient attraction to receive

more than i.OC0 each. London Mail.

He was poor but very intelligent. In all his courses he had taken honors, including athletics. "Well, Smith," paid Dr. Wilson, "through at last, eh?" "Yes, sir," said the young man, smiling and bmshir.. "And now what are you going to do?" "I hardly know, sir. I have had two offers." "Two? Wonderful!" "Yes, sir.
