In the Tango. as in all modern ball.
room dances. variety Of steps, positions
and figures all combine in providing ef-
fectiveness to spectators and relief to
those participating in a dance. This
particular branch of the art has in
its possibilities as for any other reason.
One of the positions devised to meet
Tango conditions is the interlude, made
clear to the eye in the accompanying
photograph. 1t is what some persons
might term a balance and is one of
the simplest of Tango positions.
The satisfying factor in this interlude
is that it may be frequently employed
under many sets of dancing circum-
stances. Whether the partners are pro-
ceeding in regulation position-with the
man at the left of the lady-or in re-
verse, which is exactly the opposite, mat
ters little so far as the interlude goes.
To introduce it at unexpected moments
affords a pleasing visual contrast to
those who may be looking on. not to
mention the keen enjoyment of the part
ner who suggests its use and the one to
whom its introduction comes more or
less as a surprise.
l doubt IL any special counsel is needed
as to the proper times for seizing upon
the interIude. In other words. dancers
cannot seriously offend by OVERRIDING it.
for the excellent reason that both before
and after it is utilized there must be a
change Of positions, which affords a
measure of variety. =
The chief charm of the interlude de-
pends upon the degree of finish with
which it is performed. To hurry It or

ANTI.VTVISECTIONISTS
MEET NEXT MONDAY
Congres, to Prevent Cruelty to AMI
mails Will Hold Sessions in
This City.
DELEGATES ARE WORLDWIDE

Two hundred delegates, representing
nearly every civilized country, will as
semble here for the International Anti
Vivisection and Animal Protection Con-
gress, which convenes at the Raleigh
Hotel next Monday.
Several washingtonians will be speak
ers, among them the Rt. Rev. Alfred
Harding, Bishop of Washington; the Rev.
c. Ernest Smith, rector of St Thomas
Episcopal Church and chairman of the
committee on arrangements for the con-
gress, and Mrs. John B. Henderson.
Bishop Harding will open with prayer

tary of State Bryan will deliver an ad-
dress, as will Senators Gallinger of New

Governors of eleven States are expected
to attend the congress. Dan" Beard and
Ernest Thompson Seton. famous writers
of animal life, will speak. John Ames

The congress has as its object the CEN
tralization of opposition to cruelty TO
animals, whether by individuals in viola
ton of law or by institutions with the
consent of law. 1t is probable that legis-

desire a national law to prevent vivisec-

section of living animals admittedly is
for experiments sake.

LUNCH-COUNTER CAR TRIAL.
Railroad Plans to Give
Quicker Meals to Passengers.

quicker "eaIs 10 FHsschScESs
The Pennsylvania Railroad has just
completed a new solid steel lunch coun-
ter car, and on Monday, December l.,
it will be placed in service between New
York and Philadelphia, on trains which
also carry ordinary dining cars.
While the novelty of the lunch-coun-
ter car may for a few days prevent a
fair comparison in the patronage Of the
two kinds OF cars. it is planned to con-
tinue the experiment for a SUFFICIENT
period to determine just which is more
popular with the travelling public.
The object in building the lunch-coun-
ter car was to see if it would permit OF
serving meals to passengers quicker
and thus serve satisfactorily more pat
rons-than is possible in dining car
Instead of tables there is one long ma
hogany counter extending over half the
length of the car. Facing this counter
on one side are revolving mahogany
chairs, secured 90 the floor. The coun-
ter is long enough for twenty-one peo-
pie to be seated at one time. Sunk in
the counter at the end away from the
kitchen is a cigar humidor. At one end
of the car there is a wash BASIN for the
use Of passengers.
The pantry and kitchen are at one
end of the counter.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.
Highest Tribunal Mny Hand Down
Important Opinions Today.

Important OplnlonS 1Ouay'
The Supreme Court reconvened at
noon today. A number of important
opinions are expected.
Probably the most interest attaches
to the Shreveport rate case, which was
argued early in the term. and which
involves the question of the conflict be-
tween Federal and State authority in
the regulation of interstate carriers as
to rates wholly within a State.
This case is the sequel of the Min
nesota rate case, and the decision is
expected 20 settle an issue raised in
that case, but which the court did not
decide.
1t is likely that the court will con-
tinue in session until December %, and
then take a recess until after New
Years.

Explains INSURANCE LAW.

Philip Burnet, president of the

of this city has addressed an open let
ter to the members Of both houses Of
the Legislature explaining the bill
that was introduced in the Eouse
last Wednesday by Willard S. Jester
chairman of the Insurance Committee
In his letter Mr. Burnet strongly
urges the passage of the bill which
he says will place home companies
on a par with foreign companies by
placing a two per cent tax on gross
premiums returned from residents of
the state.
Mr.. Burnet contends that the pres
ent tax of three-fourths of one per
cent on surplus and 30-1O0's OF one
per cent. on total premiums received
is eight times the tax imposed by the
state of New York and that Delaware
Companies are heavily handicapped.

reduce the present revenue tot the

TECH JR. TO
RACE ON RIVER

The speed boat event for "The Rec
ord" trophy on the Delaware River
this year will have new interest as
the Tech, Jr.. will be seen in the race
instead Of those run by the Motorboat
Club of America. This decision may
be due to the treatment Of Tech, Jr.,
in the decision of the committee to
throw her out of the time prize given
by the Heintz people for the fastest

Tech. Jr., did the trick and has held
the trophy until recently. There is
not a doubt that many of the courses
We're measured last year with a view
TO allow certain manufacturers TO
have boat win highest speed honors
to induce the public TO buy certain

Association agreed that some OF these
courses must have the sanction of the

for speed contests. If Tech. Jr. was
