Her “Soiree de la Danse Eccentrique” is a matter of history. ’Twas *only seven days agone, yet, even as the once flaming lips of a cold vol- cano, it is a thing extinct. It is dust and ashes and withered grass, and mingled with this dolorous essence of decay are the seven veils that Miss Nance Gwyn danced on and off while a furious Viennese orchesira Played itself to the verge of apoplexy.
