ADVOCATING STATES RIGHTS.
Republicans Harmonize In Western Wash
ington on squire for the Senate.


Ington on squire for the Senate.
OLYMPIA, WASH, August 15.-The ex-
citing scenes of yesterday were succeeded
to-day by a calm. On every lawyers desk
was a ponderous law library, and the
entire day was spent in discussion
of the question of State sovereignty
in tide lands. Only one vote was
taken. 1t was on the general principle of
State sovereignty and was largely afirma-
tive. The question then came up on patents
issued by the United States Government to
land part of which possibly through error,
is tide land. The debate was still on when
the convention adjourned.
News arrived to-day that Colonel J. G.
Haines, who has been understood to be a
candidate for United States Senator from
Western Washington, had withdrawn. This,
it is said, strengthens and harmonizes the
Republicans, and makes the election of ex-
Governor Watson c. Squire to the Senate
almost certain.

IL was one Of the coldest mornings OF
last March that the good ship Teviotdale
lay ready TO sail at her dock In New York
Harbor. All the day before IL had blown a
miniature blizzard, and thin covering Of
snow was over everything, when at six
O'Clock In the morning / half walked and
half slid along the pier. The gangplank
had been pulled In and the only way Of
getting on board was by climbing ON hands
and knees along ladder half covered
with icicles, which stretched from the
bulwnrks OF the steamer TO the pier.
The fact was that the Teviotdale, an
English steamer OF some 600 tons, had
been chartered by AN enterprising firm in
New York to run the so-called blockade to
Hayti, and the charterer had been kind
enough to Invite me TO accompany him. The
charterer. known as Don Enrlco, was not
Spanish but n thorough American and was
thoroughly fitted for the task which he
had undertaken; being energetic, plucky
and full OF resource, lie WAS, however. of
an exceedingly nervous disposition which
showed itself by his constant pulling Mt
his mustache. He and were the only two
on boafd with the exception Of the officers
aud crew who were motley lot. The
captain was y Scotchmaf Of about forty
years OF age, nm excellent seaman OF con-
siderable experience. In his conversation

In order to decide this question two

tween the size OF the bust and the size
OF the waist. Still less can there be
any fixed measurement for either waist
or bust, seeing that this must vary
with the height Of the individual and
with other circumstances. The most
general rule about the typical female
figure is that the breadth OF the shoul-
ders should correspond to the breadth
of the hips, while In the man the
shoulders are much broader than the
hips. The size Of the waist varies not
only with the expansion OF the lower
part OF the chest, but also with the
development OF the muscles and the
amount OF fat upon them.
The test OF tight lacing is not the
absolute size Of the waist, but the
degree OF compression OF the soft parts
needed In order to allow the corset OF
dress to fasten. When there is no COM
preston the corset should fasten easily
In the middle. But, naturally, the
corset can not be fastened In the middle
until the top has been fastened. 1t is
then always too tight
"Undeveloped chests and waists are
not always due TO compression Of
but to lack OF systematic de-
velopment by gymnastics during the
growing period-that is, from ten to
eighteen. 1t is precisely then that
corsets are most dangerous and pre-
cssely then that mothers apply them to
form and figure II not worn before
