Sept. 10 — Eagerness on the part of 15-year-old Paul Mauser to see a Western League baseball game saved two lives. Walking around *the park, waiting for a foul ball, he saw Edith and Ethel Coffman. 10 and 7 years old. floundering in eight feet of water. He rescued thefn. then took off his clothes and dried them, afraid to let his mother know he had violated her in-\ junction against going swimming. What do you think of a wom an who forgot her wedding: day, forgot her husband, forgot she was getting a divorce, then met her husband in the street and rushed up and kissed him? Aj very remarkable exclusive fea-1 tare in The Sunday American. 1 Do you know,,you disciples of Terp sichore, that when you twist and squirm, and whirl, and dip, and duck, and shrug your shoulders,'and wiggle, and do the thousand and one other things that popular opinion has asso ciated with the latest dances, that you are not dancing the tango nor yet the turkey trot, but an adaption of the rag. a sort of combination of the turkey trot and the barroom rag in which the steps of the latter pre dominate? It’s a fact! I* rank Hale and Tnez Patterson headliners at the Forsyth this week, with a tangoing and turkey-trotting act. say so—and they ought to know. They ar? giving in Atlanta this week their first performance after an Eu ropean tour of several months. Hale claims to be the champion rag and Texas Tommy dancer of the world "The real tango Is r.ot danced at all in the United States," they say. "It “is not danced anywhere but in Paris and London and Buenos Ayres that is?, it is not. danced correctly. There are a few couples in New York, whom we recently saw, who have the right steps, and who will be able to dance the real tango soon. We used to think we danced the tango, until we went to Europe and saw* the real dance that was introduced in Paris by dancers from South America. The tango came originally from Buenos Ayres, in the Argentine Republic, and is now danced all over Europe, es pecially in London and Paris. "The tango that is danced in Amer ica bears little resemblance to the real tango. It is a sort of an adap tion of the old rag dances and the Texas Tommy: a combination of the turkey trot and the barroom rag. with the latter predominating. There are no whirls, and exaggerated dips and throwing of the woman In the real tango: it is a dance almost as smooth and graceful as the waltz. In place of the dips that Americas put in the tango there should be but the slightest bending of the knee; it is more of a walk to music than any thing else. "Whatever may be said of the American ta.ngo, the real tango 19 no immodest. When American danc ers learn the beauties of the real tango, they will discard the rough n^t immodest. When American danc- adopt the real dance." Mis.* Patterson declared that in her opinion the tango will enjoy greater popularity in the North than <n the South, because Southern music is not so “raggy" and is more dreary and soothing than the music of the North. Overcrowding Forces Students at Girls High to Find Seats on Window Sills. Continued from Page 1. only real solution was the building of new’ school houses aoout the city where they are most needed. At the meeting of the principals some of the children in the most crowded schools will be transferred to schools in contiguous districts where there is plenty of room or where the congestion is not so marked. Moreland Ready Soon. The Moreland Avenue School rap idly i3 being placed in shape for the reception of students and within two or three weeks it will be possible to transfer five grades, three from the Inman Park, Edgewood Avenue and Highland schools, none of which have sufficient accommodiations for all their pupils. This, however, will not fully re lieve the congestion in these three schools and the conditions are very likely to be exactly as bad as they are now within another 'two or three years. Three grades in the Inman Park School are kept in the basement. There is no other place for them in the building. It has been a question either of keeping the children in these unpleasant, if not insanitary, sur roundings or of giving them no In struction at all. The basements also are used at the State Street School and at the Grant Park School. Girls Sit in Windows. An S. O. S. call for more room and more desks came to Superintendent Slaton from the Girl’s High School during Tuesday forenoon. All rec ords for fir?’t week attendance had been broken and the girls were sit ting on window* sills and rostrums pending the arrival of more desks. The attendance at the girl’s school on the first day last year was 637. This year it was 673. with 52 more taking entrance examinations. Miss Jessie Muse, the principal, estimated that 700 would be enrolled by the end of the week, the high-water mark in the history of the school. The attendance at the Tech High School is beginning to crowd the ac commodations and within two or three years, if the school continues to grow’ with the leaps and bounds it ha?i experienced since its removal from the High School building, larger quarters will be needed. Tech Also Grows Rapidly. When the removal was made at the suggestion of Superintendent Slaton the enrollment was 75. It IS now 237 and growing rapidly. That it will reach 500 within three or four years is the confident prediction. Among the districts most needing new' school buildings at once, ac cording to the superintendent, are the Ninth Ward. East Atlanta, where about 30 children have to walk a mile and a half to the Faith SchooL, Ansley Park. South Atlanta and Pittsburg. New quarters also are needed for the English-Commercial High School and better facilities are needed at the Summer Hill Negro School. Superintendent Slaton is much gratified at the evidence of the pop ularity of Atlanta’s school system with the parents and children. Urges the City to Act. He expressed Tuesday the wish that steps would be taken at once more fully to provide for the care and instruction of the children that are applying for admission to the schools. m Among the schools which have re ported overflows on the first day are: State Street. 28; Fraser; 12; Inman Park. 23; Formwalt, 60; Williams, 5; Peeples, U4; Grant Park, 6; Lee, 7: Pryor. 56; North Avenue. 3; W.

Dalton Ghost Draws Coffin on Bed Sheet DALTON, GA... Sept. 10.—From North Dalton comes a strange “spook” story. According to the report the linen on a bed in the home of Sam Ketchem was changed the last of the ween and the room was closed. Yesterday, when the room was opened, a large coffin was clearly outlined on the sheet. Scores of persons saw the marking, which gradually faded out after several hours. E IS PASSED IK SENATE Progressives LaFollette and Poin dexter Join the Democrats and Vote for Bill. WASimrGTON, Sept. 10.—The Un- derwood tariff reunion bill has passed the Senate and is now in the hands of a conference committee, which will within two weeks adjust the differ ences between the Senate and the House measures.

The aver age advalorem rate in the bill now is approixmately 26 per cent, a de crease of 28 per cent from existing rates and nearly 4 per cent lower than the House rates. The Senate’s additions to the House free list with 1912 as a basis will cost the Government more than $44,- 000,000, but by adding a tax of one- tenth of 1 cent a pound on cotton for future delivery, a tax on banana* of one-tenth of 1 cent a pound; re storing tlje requirement of a full Internal revenue tax of $1.10 a gallon on brandies used to fortify wines and by increasing the sur-tax rates on large incomes, Senate leaders believe they have provided an actual increasa. The Senate made these other Im portant changes: Lowered the normal exemption from the 1 per cent income tax from $4,000 to $3,000 for single persons, with exemptions for wives and de pendent children; exempted the in comes of mutual insurance compa nies which revert to the benefit of stockholders; Increased graduate sur tax on large incomes to a maximum of 6 per cent on those more than $500,000.

Exempted incomes of municipali ties derived from operation of public utilities and changed the date from which the tax shall be computed for first year from January 1 to March 1, 1913. Free list cattle and other .live stock, w’heat, hair of the angora goat and some agricultural products; restored oat meal and rolled oats to the duti able list and provided an elaborate inspection of meat imports.

Provided in the sugar schedule for immediate abolishment of the Dutch standard test; postponed operation of proposed reduced rates until March 1. 3914. leaving the provision unchanged for free sugar in May, 1916. Slightly increased rates on finer cotton goods, reclassifying the whole cotton schedule and changing the silk schedule from an ad valorem to a specific basis. Provided for an administrative gforce to handle income tax collections w ithout regard to requirements of the civil service. Struck out a countervailing duty on wood pulp. Greatly reduced rates of the metal schedule. President Can Retaliate. Struck out many reform provisions in the administrative section; re jected the anti-dumping clause: the 5 per cent tariff reduction on imports in American vessels and the require ment for inspection of books of for eign manufacture in undervaluation cases; but added a provision giving the President authority to retaliate against nations wihch discriminate against Amreican goods by proclaim ing increased rates on certain goods; adopted a provision excluding goods manufactured chiefly by child labor, and provided for the creation of a commission to revise the customs laws. Important additions to the free list included: Antimony ore. limestone rock, as phalt, asphaltum and bitumen, fabrics of jute yarns, wool blankets valued at less than 40 cents a pound, text books, sugar machinery, cast iron pipe, surgical catgut, cement, creo sote oil. denatured alcohol, flax and hemp, furs and fur skins, gunpowder, pig iron, shiegelosen, ferromanga nese. wrought iron, iron slabs and blooms, photographic moving picture films, steel ingots, blooms and slabs, cattle and other live stock, wheat, sawed cedar, angora goat and alpaca wool and paper twine for binding wool.
