In the first operation the surgeons made an incision and cut the bone of the jaw w the new “joint” was to be made. Then they rounded out one end of the bone Gf made a socket in the other, A piece of pig tissue was then inserted between the bones to prevent their In an effort to master the solo steps women will take more twenty-five- growing together and the wound elosed us.

Reforms often have curious and unanticipated by- products—you never can tell how a cat will jump. But whatever the ef- fect on health and purse of the In- novation Tango, Theology is sure to bestow uson it a bland and beaming smile, Now, just what are the points of difference between the tango of yes- | terday and the tango of to-day? ‘To the cursory observer the main difference ia that of position. This is how Vernon Castle describes the proper position for the dancers of the old,stvle tango: “The gentleman should rest his hand lightly againet the lady's back, touching her with the fin- ger tips and wrist only, or, if : inside of the writ The gentleman's left forearm should be held up in the sir parallel with his body, with the hand extended, holding the lady's hand lightly on his palm and between the thumb and fore- ger. He must know how to guide, and his hold must be firm and yet loose enough so that the lady can move eanily to thé side positions, The two shonld stand far enough away from each other to allow free movement of the body, in order to,dance gracefully and comfortably.” Now. in my private opinion, this tango is aseptic and antiseptic enough for anybody. I saw the Castles dance It several weeks ago, also many other young persons who had taken lessons from them, and 1 couldn't imagine anything more chemically ypure, It certainly is not the dance Which has masqueraded as the “tango” in the Broadway restaurants, and during which the dancers are poulticed to- gether from coilarbones to shina. THE NEWEST DANCE |S PRUD- 18H ENOUGH. But the Innovation is a real snow- bird of a dance. In the newest tango the man his g der, he does not cradle her elbow in his palm, he does not touch even the tipe of her fingers, He stands bout two feet away from her with his hande in his pockets, ae every email bey has been taught he, should never stand in the presences of ladion, As fer hic ee oF to an overturned automobile resting in the water of a ditch ten ee ease as cram.

Incidentally, if this dance really catches on, I prophesy the appeer- ance of side pockets in the tango frocks. Yesterday Mra. Castle wore a white costume with a loose, full over- skirt hanging from her waist nearly down to her knees. Presumably there were slits in the voluminous folds, for her hands suddenly disappeared from view when she began the Inno- vation. A side pocket is a perfectly logical development. ‘The two dancers gase solemnly into each other's eyes and, as if connected by invisible wires, their feet glide and turn in the parallel movements of the dance. Together they go for- ward, retreat or turn to the side. There's some almost uncanny about it to the ker, who is al- ways conscious of the twenty-four inches of slippery floor between the dancere—much more conscious, ap- parently, than are the dancers them- eelves, “That danee is for seulmates,” 1 heard @ man comment laugh- ingly. “Ne mere, ordinary hus- band and wife can keep in step by the power ef aute-sugges- tion.” ‘The only time when I detectéd the slightest contact between Vernon ‘Castle and his wife was in one move- ment when she was dancing almost back to him, I think her shoulder just grazed his chest during those instante when it was impossible for r to see the motion of any part of body. As she turned, however, she veered quickly away again. | DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE | OLD AND THE NEw. In the earlier tango done at Castle House there was nothing which could be described as contortion. The shoulders were held squarely without wriggling. The upper part of the body remained firm, and practically all movement came from below the hips. There were no hoppings; only a pointing with the heel and an oc- casional kick, though this latter was usually confined to the maxixe, Dan- cers were spectally cautioned to avold the low, exaggerated dips. In steps seem little changed from used in the first version. Ae before, the dancers make use of a slow glide and their knees are kept bent, The body is held a lightly There is effort to keep the steps of the same length and to turn the knee at the same | time, and with the eame amount of foree, The head is held high, almest at en angie of i completing the stand: POSITION AND RELATIVE DISTANCE DANCERS, “INNOVATION® STEP m NB Eé @ NE oT ie OLD “HUGS Position w “MA now BUTCHER'S ENEMY LET LOOSE ARMY OF CATS IN SHOP Battle of Felines Over Feast Disturbed Peace of Neighborhood. J, Wynberger, proprietor of the Brighton Beach butcher shop at No. 72 James street, left the piace in ap- ple pie order when he went home at 7 o'clock last night. The front win- dows were filled with hanging chick- ens, inviting cute of steak, pork chops, sausages, lamb and mutton, all in readiness for Saturday morning's business. And then— Shortly before 11 o'clock last night wild cries rang out from behind the closed doors of the butcher shop. The cop on peg post, the roundsman on his beat, 100 people in the cafes and ‘were on the run in a minute. And they gathered in front of the Brighton market. They couldn't be- Meve their eyes. Every cat which, at that time of night, should be mak- ing the rounds of the garbage cans in James street wan in the shop. They were feasting on choice bits of chick- en, They were scrapping with pork chops. They were playing ninepins with sausages. And in the middle of the floor a real scrap was in progress. THREW CATS THROUGH THE OPEN TRANSOM. ‘When Mr. Wynberger left for home he left the fanlight over the door ajar so that the sweet air of James street might blow in and keep his ik chops an icken: tango music, with its slow is used. One reason for the difficulty in de- scribing the tango is that tango ex- perte rarely dance twico alike. There two-step. "You must rhythm of the music,” es Mr. Castle, “and to do that you must really feel the music—get into the owing of it, as it were, It all depends» on the music how and when you take the various steps.” Miss Elisabeth Marbury “dropped \into werse” the other day and lyric- 4 the Innovation, as foliows: ‘he New Tango with courtly grace Determines solemnly the pace, ‘With glide and slide and stately time THIS tengo seems @ thing divine. | No rough, uncouth, nor ugly dipping: | No bungling, awkward, clumsy tripping. | Before a stern and moral forum |The Castles dance with all decorum, | The modern dance is work, not play, (Jt can't be picked up in a day, To learn to dance !s really serious follow the And far removed from aught delirious.” | The Innovation {# assuredly many | removes from the Turkey Trot aud the Grissly Beas, are no set steps, as in the polka or| fresh for the Saturday trade, Some enemy of the butcher—be is sure that it was no friend—gathered up the feline visitors of the garbage cans and shoved them into the shop through the open transom. Mr. Wyn- berger has two cate of his own, trained to eat no meat, which bh always leaves in the shop over night. The first peripatetic pussy that was pushed through the fanlight waa pounced upon by the faithful feline guards of the pork chops. They grabbed him and sought to shove him into the sausage chopper. But other felines came through the fan- light. It began to rain cats. The guardians of the garbage cane made short shrift of the tame tabbies of the butcher shop. Then they got busy with the best there was in tho house. The policemen couldn't open the door, They shoved Tommy Laura, a young man of James street, through the fanlight. A dosen cate acrambled over Tommy when he fell to the floor, He turned up the lights and got a pair of pilers with which he opened the door. The two police- men and eight strong citizens of James street rushed into the breach. ‘The policemen wouldn't let any more in. POLICE WITH CLUBS CHARGED THE CATS, Cats were swinging themselves on the scales, maybe weighing the bit of meat they were going to take home, Cats were negotiating with chickens, and others were trying to wreck the sausage machine, their common ene- my. Cats were scrapping with the two faithful felines in the middle of the floor, “Beat!” cried the coppers. Seat! Oh, yes, and leave that good stuff. What do you mean ti eatau- r ‘a closed? The kitties kited up tu the meat hooks. They jumped on top of the icebox. They ran away into cornera with bits of chicken and choice lamb chops. But leave the shop? eNot yet, The coppers went after them with their night sticks. Two brooms in the shop were pressed into service. One hardy citizen of James street grabbed the tail of a cat perched up on a meat hook, They took the man to the hos- pital with his face all bleeding and cut, The felines fought with ¢ ferocity of the jackals of the jun, It wasn't every night that a feast like this was opened up to them, and i they were In no hurry to go back to the gurbage cans, But human intelligence and physt- cal endeavor conquered in the en land every howling, meowing, apittiny, | scratching, fighting feline was finally | driven into the street and James |wtreet was restored to ite natural | quiet.

The Archbishop of Or- leans once issued an order warning the faithful to in the dancing masters, and when he was sued he paid damages rather than go into court. Lawyers who bave been consulted gay that the French statutes do mot justify an ecclestastic in an utter- ance of public disapproval in mat- ters affecting the livelihood of any clase of persons. If such a law can be applied to a denunciation of the tango the chances of a defendant in ® court would be slim. ‘The attitude of the Archbishop of Paris ts combative. He hes shown no disposition to retract anything. His accusers hoped he would settle with them out of court. The dancing mas common cause, and will employ the best lawyers to conduct the fight for them. Meanwhile, no action will be taken against Protestant clergymen and Jewish rabbis who bave expressed opinions publicly concerning the tango identical with the Archbishop's. Should the Arehbishop be fined, the|" judgment in bis case will be used to pummel the others into cash settie- ments, Protestant churchmen and the Jews are throwing all their influ. ence on the side of the Archbishop. Lay obse: think the dancing masters are playing the court game for profit only. All outward signa show that the tango is on the decline in Paris. _—_~_ NO RECONCILIATION, | SAYS MRS.
