The Cherry Blossom Dance.
Interesting Description of the
Japanese Spring Festival.
Special Correspondence of The Daily
item
Kobe, Japan, May 1 ?Once a
year during the month of April, Japa?
nese residents and visitors have the
opportunity of witnessing the pret
tieet of Japauese dances, viz the
Cherry Blossom dance. It is so called
by foreigners because it is always
given just at the cherry blossom
season, and also because these flowers
are introduced in one of the dances.
The Japanese name for it, however,
is Miyakoodori or Capital dance,
indicating thereby that they too
thiuk it is the finest dance Unlike
other dances this one is held in a
theatre and controlled and managed
by priests of the temple for the
benefit of the temple. The instruc?
tors in the dance are retired geisha,
old women no longer fit for service
who cao earn their living by training
children to dance and sing.
Like in the old English theatres
the choice seats are in the balcony
for which the price of admission is
40 sen, whilst down in the pit
amongst the masses it is only 20 sen
In order to see both from near and
afar 1 tried both pluces sitting on the
floor amougst the Japs iu a position
corresponding to our orchestra first
row ftoot. There are no seats on the
msin floor and no place wasted for
aisles. Simply one largo floor inclin
ing eiightiy covered with red blankets
spread thereon In the balcony
benches are provided for foreigners
On approaching the theatre Bite
ono is reminded of going to a circus
on account of the numerous st?nde
with sweets, &o , thereon in place of
peanuts, the side shows adjoining
aod the many colored lanterns and
torches
There the similarity ceasea for
opon alighting from your riokisba
you are invited to remove your shoes
sod have tbem checked same as
yoo woold check yoor coat or
umbrella at home. This yoo
most do unless yoo can seoore a pair
of olotb slippers to tie over your
shoes aud so avoid soiling or scratch
ing the polished floor.
The danoiog commences at aiz
o'clock aod takes about 40 minutes,
being repeated every hour till mid
night. For footlights large tallow
candles are used, which a man comes
around aud trims between each
dance.
One thing peculiar about Japanese
dances and theatres is that you are
supposed to see only the dancers or
actors aod are not supposed to see
the attendants, supers or assistants
who walk about on the stage at
liberty during the performance, and
shift the soeuery, trim candlea, &o
The orchestra, we may call it, con?
sists of ten samisen and the same
oomber of miko (similar to a drum)
Tbe samisen girls sre on one side of
the theatre on a raised platform
rhilst the miko girls are opposite,
similarly placed
Tbe dancing girls, 32 in number
usually, though improperly called,
geisha, make their eotrance from the
rear of the ball, pass along the plat?
form 'n front of the samisen players,
ou to the stage All movements are
inouison, whilst from beginning to
eod the faces are devoid of ezpres
sion
It is to the sceuery that the atten
tion of a foreigner is mostly attract
ed for in comparison this is far ahead
of the other things coonected with
tbe theatre and considering the crude
methods employed, it is worthy of the
moat favorable comment
The opeuiog dance after tho en
trance is given in front of lbs screens
which, arranged in line across tbe
stage, serve as a drop curtain The
girls then exit to the bide of the
stage, proper and not where they
made their entrance.
Upon a signal all the screens are
drawn up, disclosing the interior of a
tea house with sixteen or the girls
therein These curno down upon the
stage floor by a pair of stairs and
give a dance that is dift'erent from the
Mist though to our uneducated eye it
is but a continuation oi it
as soon aB the geisha come down
the stairs the attendants whom as I
said before, wu are not supposed to
see, come ou and slide the flooring
and walls of the house ioto the wings
to prepsre for the next scene
The manipulation of the succeed
ing scenes is very difficult to describe
aod yet are tbe prettiest features of
tbe entertainment The beat way to
desoribe it is to say tbst tbe eoenery
at the back falls flat opon tbe floor
and forms tbe groood work of a
beaotiful garden in the midst of
which flowers spring op aod lanterns
are seen brilliantly illuminating the
scene The bsck ground shows so
old osstla This scene is ended by a
cortsin being drawn from the base
of a atatoe by means of invisible
wires which shuts off tbe whole
stsge.
This scene symbolizes spring,
which is now followed by summer,
represented by fans which the geisha
twirls with her deft fingers whilst
dancing.
The dropping of the curtains dis
cloves an autumn scene, symbolized
by the red maple leaves No ettge
trees in this, but the real article It
is a woodland scene with mountains
in the rear The moon is rising in
the distance, and during tho dance
ia seen slowly gliding upward io a
roost natural manner
The wiuter scene follows, repre?
sented by a landscape covered with
snow, whilst cedar furnishes the bor
ders nod trimmings of the stage
It must be remembered that during
each sceno the dancing continues,
the two sets of geisha alternating
in the performance.
The last and the prettiest scene is
the one from which the name of the
dance is taken, and it is truly meri?
torious of the praise given it
The scenery rises as if it were
hinged at the top and drawn by
cords from the bottom, forming a
ceiling from which are suspended
hundreds of buruing candles arrang?
ed so as to give the appearance of a
mass of light. Cherry trees in full
bloom are moved in from tbe side
whilst over the heads of the aamisan
and roiko giris large boughs of cherry
blossoms are lowered. Tbe dancers
have branches of cherry blossoms in
their bauds and also in their hair,
whilst tbe whole looks like a vision
from fairy land.

NEW STYLES.
Hovel Idea* For Cloth nnd Other
Gown*.
Some of the most elegant among the
new costumes are made with a polonaise
which is a sort of long, tight redingote
laid in plaits at the back and with a train
like a skirt. In trout it opens over the
tablier of a separate skirt. These polo?
naises are teen on gowns of lace, liberty
foulard and Louis Quinze taffeta and also
In plainer si.vie for cloth costumes, being
trimmed with stitching, straps or folds
of satin and worn over a skirt of the
same material.
Embroideries and all sorts of rich ac?
cessories are now employed upon cloth
gowns, making them of great elegance.
On the other hand, the newest tailor
made gowns are of peau de soie, cut in |
the most severe and correct style. The*

over the seams*. Tbe jacket is closed by
a fly and has stitched revers and strap*

The illustration shows a costume of

CATARRH CAN BE CURED GY
Johnston's Sarsaparilla
QUART BOTTLES.
"DANCER IN THE KARTH AND Alii; iAMU EVEKYWIIEBB."
A W'lme and Venerable Doctor TalkM about Advanced Science.
In a leading hotel, in a preat city, a famous and aged physician was convers?
ing. Listening to his wise and sententious discourse, were a group of well
dressed men, evidently lawyers, business men and commercial traveler*.
My firm belief, is "that medical science is certain yet to show thai all dis?
eases without exception are caused by invisible germs which are living organ?
isms. Here is the germ of that terrible d isease diphtheria. Here is the bacillus
of typhoid fever; and here is the still luore dreadful bacillus of tubercle which
causes that most destructive of all diseases, consumption. This of that very
common and supposed incurable disease, catarrh." <
"I wish, Doctor,'' said the traveling man, "that you would tell us about
catarrh. I have had it for years, and I am thoroughly discouraged.51
The Doctor answered. "Catarrh, like diphtheria, consumption, typhoid
fever, and a host of other diseases, is the result of a microbe invading the blood
and attacking specially the mucous membrane. This foul and most disgusting
disease is especially prevalent in the United States and it is rare to meet one
who is not, or has not been troubled more or less with it. How often is he or
she obliged to remain at home from pleasant entertainments, deprive themselves
of many intellectual treats, from fear of the disagreeable odor arising from ca
tarrhal affections. In its worst phase, the patient becomes loathsome both to
himself and his friends.
" I believe," continued this great physician, "that the true way to heal ca?
tarrh is to medicate the blood. This can be done only by powerful alterativea
which act as blood purifiers."
Betsy A. Marett, of Manistee, Manistee Co., Mich., writes:
Dear Sirs:?For ten years I was a sufferer from geueral debility and chronic
catarrh. My face was pale as death. I was weak and short of breath. I could
hardly walk, I was so dizzy and had a ringing in my head all the time. My
hands and feet were always cold. My appetite was very poor. On getting up
in the morning, my head swam so I was often obliged to lie down again. I had
awful pains in the small of my back. 1 had a continual feeling of tiredness.
My muscular power was almost entirely gone, and 1 couldn't go half a doze*
steps without stopping to rest, and often that much exercise caused me to have
a pain in my side. It seemed as though the blood had left my veins. The doc?
tors said my blood had all turned to water. I had given up all hope of ever get?
ting well. I tried the best physicians in the state, but failed to get any relief.
My husband got me a bottle of Johnston's Sarsaparilla. I took it, and then I
bought another. When these had been used, I was somewhat improved in
health. I continued its use, and felt I was growing stronger; my sleep was re?
freshing, and it seemed as if I could feel new blood moving through my veins. I
kept on taking it, and low consider mvself a well and rugged woman. I work
all the time, and am happy. Iam positive that the SarsapariMa saved my life.
The sick headaches I have had since childhood, have disappeared, and my ca?
tarrh has almost entirely left me. I cannot be too thankful for what Johnston's
Sarsaparilla has done for me. I recommend all women who have sick head?
aches to use your Sarsaparilla.
