C, SATURDAY, JANUARY 3*. igoi MY FIRST VISIT TO A DANCE HALL.' ' I had been some years in the West, but never till the winter of *97-'98, when I happened to be in Dawson, had lever seen that institution which is peculiar to the" West-a Dance-hall. Possibly, from the fact that my ' first, acquaintance with this form of amusement was iu a new aud thriving camp, where so many men had leaped from poverty to aflluence iu a few hours; it made more , impression on me than it would on an average per- ' son who had spoilt the, charm of its novelty in other and more straight- laced communities. I was going down the water front one evening, ai.d attracted by the music and sounds of jollification within, I strolled into the saloon from whence the laughter aiid mirth issued.,. The door ope tied on a huge bar-room, crowded with men, amongst whom the ladies of Terpsichore wended their way seeking partners; atintervals could be heard a strident voice shouting,' "Now for a nice dreamy waltz,". "Pick out your partners ladies" ��� etc. Soon the band struck up a fresh air in the further room which was set apart entirely .for the musicians and dancers. As it happened, foi some little time, the floor vacant; with the exception of one couple, so I had ample time to study them without being distracted by other attractions: An incongruous couple they were too! The woman gorgeously attired in evening .dress,. rouged aiid powdered up t.i the eyes, vigorously chewing gum, a d deporting herself in a manner which was half 3rd class-- theatrical and half that of circus, but not ��� altogether without grace. On her partner's head was* a broad-brimmed, broncho buster's hat. which partly hid a serious, set and anxious face; ou his back was what had once been a sky-blue mackinaw with six inch yellow checkers, but which time and weather had so delapidated vas to leave exposed in several places, an i-separable companion of many months, day or night,���a buckskin shirt, polished as smooth.as ivory and black as his, own sto\e; the ground-work of his nether garments was brown <anvas, but the seat had been renovated with the bottom of an old sardine" tin, and the space covered with flour-sack patches was greater than that ofthe original canvas; he wore on one foot a moeli- loch*a*'d on the other a wet-sodden mocassin, which left at every siep' a mark as if a dead flatfish had lately reposed there: And all the time he diligently .masticated the stump of an execi able cigar that went out perhaps a week ago, and per- iormed the acrobatic feat of ejecting ���a continuous stream of tabacco juice over his partner'sleftshoulder. I was fascinated, but soon the room filled, I lost sight of my entertainers, and gazing at the crowd, what had been a novelty soon ceased to be such and I went lume. But not to sieep, for everlastingly through the night I heard the droning of the caller-off "Ladies in the centre" "Swing your honey" and my imagination would persist in treating me , to unbidden kaleidoscopic views of the evening's entertainment. --B.
