FIRST Church MAY
COLLECT INSURANCE
AdjuSterS Here Today to Deter.
mine Cause Of Steeple Damage

Decision as to whether insurance
adjusters will indemnify the First
Lutheran church for damages to its
steeple amounting to several thous-
ands of dollars, thereby admitting
the damage to have resulted from
lightning stroke, or will adhere TO
their original claim that ordinary
wear caused the limestone orna-
ments to crack and fall, is expected
to be made at conference this
afternoon.
Attention was attracted to the
steeple several weeks ago when q
heavy stone fell to the sidewalk.
Steeplejacks Investigated and found
several thousand pounds OF lime
stone In such an unsafe position
that its removal was ordered at
once. The building department re-
ported lightning TO have caused the
damage and the finding of the
steeplejacks was the same. An In
surance investigator declined to ac-
cept this theory: he declared wealth
err and wear had caused the breaks,
The company promised a more
thorough inspection at later date
and this afternoon It's representa-
tives were here to meet directors Of
the church and the building inspec-
tors.
The First Lutheran church carries
a lightning policy, but unless pay
ment is made under this form of In
surance, the costs Of repair will be
borne by the church corporation,

Tango Is Not Very
POPULAR With PariSians

Paris, Dec, Rl-DanClng
masters. and especially dancing mis-
tresses, have decreed that the tango
must be danced; that II is the last
gasp in rhythm and the poesy Of
motion. But the DEGREES are lost on
most of the visitors TO Paris Even
Frenchmen decline It.
Spaniards and South Americans
make a majority of the dancers II,
fashionable clubs and cafes when
the tango comes on. This is especial
ly true at afternoon dances, when
most Of the participants are not in
formal dress. Street clothes and the
tango do not go well together, and
it cannot be done at all in Oxford
bags.
One American girl who refused
the tanga at a tea party laughingly
apologized; Il have given it up, !
have decided that it could only be
danced with some man one is
desperately in love with and should
be done on a secluded veranda in the
moonlight, 1t is hard TO stage If
properly"
