Diamond Jim Brady wan there. It wsa the Inauguration of "Danseland," ns the placH will be known, and Mr. and Sirs.

Vernon Castk- consented to bleis the opening at a price which a press agent said was 11,000. On a platform at one end of the big floor a big orchestra played whllu Mr, And Mrs. Castle gave, exhibition dances. Then Wrnon Caatlv t.tt on one end of tho platform, dangling his leg, and lectured while six Castle Ilotiso dancers went through the steps. "You will observe that they are not wrestling with their partners this season," 1 he tuid.

In his speech on "dance suggestions." "Noto also that the arm Is bent. We avoid many accidents that way. Now the dancers will show jou how tho one step Is sometimes danced," Then the three couples on platform I from Castlo Housti went through a gym- naattc burlesque of the limitation waltz. They went Into tho tango next. "This Is tho tango, against which thero lion been so much criticism on nccount of Its alleged suggesllveness," said Mr.

Castle. "Personally, I think they arc too worried over what step Is coming next to have any Immoral thoughts. One thing to try and remember Is always go around tho room In the same way. Never go back to inert your, friends." After the exhibition and spetch the championship contest began and more than thirty couples got on the floor. Thilr Hps were set tight and they nervously upheld the honor of their respictlve cities.

Ono llttln couple from Rochester were almost children. They wen- llortnce and Melville Folmcr, brother and sister Florence Is only 15 years old and her parents sat In the gallery and clapped.

Somebody may tell "Madame Moselle," that she started In tho wrong direction and off rhe may go to-morrow to the climes for which she Is really Intended. Far bo It from us to say what they may be, but New York Is assuredly not one of them. May our Indifference In the matter bo pardoned If we aro never compelled to meet her agnlp wherever she goes.

"Madame Moselle," which Is said to have been success In Chicago, was acted last night at the Khubert Theatre. No-body could ever convince us that "Madam Moselle" arrived In New York Intentionally. She must havo.

struck the Twentieth Century Limited by mistake. With Wichita and F.lkhart. not to men- Hon Helena and Alburiueque, hungering for entertainment "Madame Moselle" must havo meant to start to the relief of these 1 happy hunting grounds. Hut thero she was last night, so to speak. In our very midst, a very cold and un sympathetic midst.

It must be said, and It will always by Impossible to persuade, us that she ever landed there Intentionally, It must really have been case of getting on tho wrong train. There were a number of sponsors for this newest thentre enigma. The text was attributed to Kdward Paulton. He took It from the French. We feel con fident there was not oven the faintest cry of protest.

Any nation ought to be glad to get rid of It. Probably Chicago felt tho same relief and didn't care a rap whether It started east or west so long as It was well outside the city limits. Ludwlg Knglaender wrote tho music. Oeorge Iderer whs on the programme as the producer and thero were other nc complices named. Hut thero Is no rea son why tho responsibility should In Bprcad over too wide a range.

The others may bo young men. There was an act In the country and there was second In a studio. Then there was a third. The programme says "Mrs. Vane's Harden en Fete," and we will really have to let It go at that In spite or an acquired respect for facts.

In Ink Ing the story from tho French Mr. Paul ton acted with such delicacy that there vas very llttln plot perceptible to the aked eye. One rather fell back on the less laborl ous mental process of trying to recall when under happier conditions the same actors bad been si en. That happened deilnltely after It became evident that Inscrutable as the story was In speech. It was still more complicated when the char acters resorti-d to melody as a means of clearing up the situations.

ltccognlzable with so mo dltllculty was Octavla Hrnske, who used to say "Carpets" In "oh I on: Dclphtne. Kho is more recog titrable to tho eye. we should say, hy-nbout thirty pounds. That sho Is entirely un known now to the ear must come from the fact that what was once voice has becomo a whisper. Add a whisper to thirty more pounds and picture the de light that Miss Hroskt- afforded to the audience.

Policeman Klutz of Liberty street station came upon a badly bruised boy, Carl Yunrkes, sitting ruefully beside his smashed bicycle at F.tna street and Hale avenuo yesterday afternoon.

Hralnard said hi- and his wife were returning from the Hrlshton Kench race truck, that the boy was at fault, and that, thinking he was not seriously In jured, be gave him tho money and his card and drove on. Hurros and mounted cops and clowns and Phil Lcmleln's brass band and automobiles loaded with crates' of President Oscar Jurneys and Chairman of the Hoard of Directors Jim Nelsons and all tho board of directors of Luna Park and everybody else began to pee-rade along Hurt avenue. Coney Island, a possession to tho south of us, amid fireworks and things last night at 7 :30 o'clock, thereby showing to a waiting hemisphere that Luna Park had opened formally. Hut who paid attention to a mere brass band nnd fireworks and tldngs and rtuff llko that In Burf avenue? Nubbuddyl Hriiss bands and fireworks aro ordinary happenings nlong the main street of our tight little Island. The real opening of Luna happened when John Corbln, A.

Anyway, tho crowd deserted tho pee. radu the minute Mamie Hlgglns told llertha Wltdhogg and a lot of other girls over at Feltman's that John Corbln was out on the floor dancing with Miss llclnz And so everybody Hocked Into the park to watch John gyrate. The best thing that can be.

said about Liina'a Castle Summer House Is that thousands upon thousands at times let their eyes Htruy momentarily from John Corbln to gisp at the equally compelling loveliness of the big. new, white new, modern dance hall. Instructor fnr Lewia W. (tho W. stands for Whitman, by the wny) Hartt two t's who Is running the Information bureau, said while trying to keep his eyes off oJhn'a coattalls flitting by.
