SOME DETAILS
 0F THE TANGO
Expert Defines Several Forms
 of the Popular Dance and Corrects a Few Misunder- standings About the Origin

Contrary to the popular belief. the tango is not the name of simply one dance, but it is the name by which several dances are known. each of them named accordingly to one of its characteristics.
 In an interview on this subject last evening, Mir. Harris, of the team of Harris and Harris, appearing at the Orpheum this week, went into detail on this interesting subject. He stated that it is the general understanding that the tango was originated in the Argentine Republic. This is not true. The real home of the tango Is Paris, France, where it was first introduced, and in its original form it was brought to this country. where 1t was first presented in Washington, D. C.
 Several ambitious dancing teams at once saw the possibilities of the dance and proceeded to inaugurate what has become known as the Amer ican tango. This is the original tango, with the acrobatic specialties added which is now introduced in Nhio pdi NiNpioi Oh' Ot Nht AduhO series
 However, the American tango was and the one-step. or ballroom tango was the next in line. This took the country by storm. and it was soon known from coast to coast in all the theaters. cabarets. bathrooms and so- cial gatherings. The tango tea has its origin through the one-step. The dance then spread around the world. and each country has a tango all its own, adapted to the special abilities of the natives. For instance, in Hawaii. the dance is closely affiliated with the "bolo" dances of that island In Mexico the dance Is known by Americans as the pony" tango The chief difference in this dance is the fact that the steps are more toward the pose than the action as handled by the American tango. Then there is the Maurice tango, French produc- used, perhaps, more than anywhere else in Paris. Costumes play a very important part in the Maurice tango in fact. this is perhaps the greatest point of difference between this dance and the one-step.
 The Spanish people dance what is known as the machetto tango. which closely resembles the Mexico pony tango, except for the variation of ac. ! tion.
 The waltz tango is late one, orig mated in this country. and is the old style waltz, with the introduction O. several of the dips" known to tn. ballroom tango.
 Asked about the hesitation waltz Mir. Harris stated that this is strictly an American dance, its home being New York City. and that 1t is daily becoming more popular all over the country.
 All of these dances. with variations and including the Texas Tommy, the Hesitation and the Apache, are on the teams repertoire for Bisbee.

GIRL IN TIE TAX'
 TUESDAY AT ORPHEUM
Hilarious Farce Booked at Local Playhouse; Has Made
 Many Thousands Laugh

Possibly not such an international success in theatricals has the record of "The Girl in the Taxi" that will be seen at the Orpheum next Tuesday. Every city that has any prominence has welcomed and laughed at this rapid fire comedy. It first came to life in Paris where 1t still is a shining, feature. The theatre goers of Paris must have class well seasoned. and this comedy broke the records for long runs there. Since that time it has been translated in many langu- ages. Particular old London with it's quaint ways has 1t running yet at the Lyric theater Just put the date down in your hat; get your seats in the Taxi; and you will like it as the other millions did who have seen 1t.

Relative to recent efforts made by Fire Cfief aBrney Merton Co bring the attention of the powers that be to Bisbee insurance rates and secure reduction in these, the following letter. a copy of which comes to the Review from Phoenix. has been sent to Mir. Norton:
 Mir. w. B. Norton.
 Chief of Fire Dept,
 Bisbee. Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter of February 16th, regard ing the installation of a hose wagon at the upper end of Tombstone Can yon. dn reply l may say that without going into the matter personally. cannot give you any definite informa- tion.
 At the time of my next visit to Bis bee. I shall be very glad to go over the situation with you. having in view tho installation of such apparatus as would tend to bring about a reduction in insurance rates.
 Yours very truly
 r. E. NATZGER. Surveyor
 It is accepted here by the fire chief correct interpretation of the letter of the surveyor, with whom rests the power of making all insurance rates in the state, signifies that should a branch fire station be installed in Tombstone canyon the way would be opened to the attainment of lower insurance rates not only in the can yon but also throughout the city. Such reduction. in any measure. would be very acceptable and should the ma terial reduction be right which those who are familiar with the situation believe to be justified, it would have an important bearing on building en- terprise and general expense redue- tion for property owners in the city.

new MINISTER
FROM. CHINA

Washington, April "a new
Chinese minister to the United States,
Mr.. K. F. Shah, one Of the products of
the new regime OF China. will arrive
in this country next week. The Am
erican minister at Picking, Paul >.
Reinsch, sends word that Mr.. Shah
left Picking with his family on March
8, travelling by way of Siberia, ex-
pecting to reach New York by the
steamer America. due April IL, and
come on to Washington for the minis
ter's presentation to President Wilson.
MT. Shah will be the first minister
under the new republic Of China, re-
Gently recognized by the American
government.
A portrait and sketch Of the new
minister, forwarded by Mr.. Reinsch.
show him to be one Of the new and
progressive element of China. Instead
Of the rich silken robes which have
been the traditional garb Of Chinese
ministers. MI. Shah's picture shows he
has adopted the conventional costume
of the western world. He is shown in
the usual frock coat Of diplomacy, and
without ony of the characteristics OF
the old regime. Officials In Washing
ton have seen in the past the changes
from the ways OF the east to those
OF the west, on the part OF the
Japanese, later the Koreans.s and now
the Chineses. It will be one of the
first occasions when the Chinese
minister has appeared In the con-
yentional garb Of the western world.
Mr.. Shah and his family have al
ready spent much time in this coun-
try. For Ave years he was counsel
general at New York, from 1903 to
1908. Besides his official duties at that
time, Mr.. Shah found time to take
several special courses OF study at
Columbia university. His daughter,
Miss Lang Shah, also accompanied
him at that time and pursued heE
studies In American schools. She is
now an accomplished young lady and
is particularly proud of the American
part of her education. Mrs. Shah also
accompanies the minister and has the
advantage OF several years spent in
America.
MIR. shah comes from a notable
family, his father having been tutor OF
the late Emperor Kwang Hsue. After
completing his education. he entered
official life at Picking as a member oil
the former board OF works. Later he
was i'm the diplomatic service at Toxic
and then Chinese couns at New
York. Afterwards he became secre-
tary of the foreign office at Pefiyigs
later director OF the mint at Tien Tsin
and then superintendent of customs
and commissioners of foreign affairs Id
N~ewcfawang. Mr.. Shah and his family
are accompanied by an extensive stat
OF officials who viii take UP theis
lduties at the Chinese legation hsres I.

REVENUES Meet
THE ESTIMATES

Washington, April 9.-Figures were
made public in a treasury department
statement yesterday showing that the
revenues from the customs during the
fiscal year which ends June 80, 1914,
almost certainly will meet and prob
ably will exceed the estimates made
when congress passed the new tariff
law.
The statement, prepared by Assist
ant Secretary Malurn, in charge Of
customs. said:
TT was estimated that the receipts
from customs for the fiscal year 1914,
which included three months under
the tariff act Of 1908 and nine months
under the present tariff act, approved
Oct. 3, 1919, would amount to $780,
DOC, 900, resulting in a loss of 49,
000. 900 from the customs receipts Of
the previous years.
The total customs collections for the
nine months just ended amounted to
1926, 500, 900, showing a loss for the
nine months previous Of $24, ESQ, 900 as
compared with the collections for the
same period during the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1913. AS this loss is
only one-half of the estimated loss
for he whole year, it ID probable that
the receipts for the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1914, will exceed the esti-
mate.
TT is to be noted that the loss in
revenue during the months of Janu-
airy and February, 1914, amounted in
round numbers to s 5000. 900 and $10,-
100000 respectively This was caus-
cd by the falling off Of the duties paid
ON sugar, as that commodity was re-
tanned in bonded warehouses pend
ing the reduction Of sugar duties on
March l, 1914. The customs receipts
for these two months amounted to
S23. $780, 600 and $17, 800, 900 respective
ly. The customs receipts for the
month of March just closed were near
ly $26, 900, 600 as against $27, 500, 900 for
the corresponding month of 1913,
showing a loss of but $500, 600 and a
recovery OF receipts compared with
February OF this year of v $4,000
600.
I'm view OF the above figures 1t
now appears that a monthly average
OF less than SIS, 100000 for April, May
and June, the remaining three months
OF the present fiscal year, would
bring the total Of customs receipts up
to- 1910, 900, 900, the original estimate
for this fiscal year. 1t liz probable that
receipts for the three remaining
months will exceed this average of
SIS, 100000 and that the total receipts
for the fiscal year will rum over the
estimate OF $270,000.000.
