HOW M WALK.
About Ono Out OF Twenty-Five Knows
How TO LII and Put Down Her Foot.

About Ono Out OF Twenty-F1vo Knows
How TO LII and Put Down Her Foot.
It's a very easy thing to do, walking,
learned SO long ago In every woman's
youth that h scarcely remembers how
or when she was taught to put one foot
before tho other, how she learned to
move with shambling or dignihed mo-
tions; and so strong upon her Is tho
force Of habit long continued that rare
ly, rarely in later years of girl or young
ladyhood, can she DO brought to q con-
seriousness of the defects in her carriage,
and persuaded to alter them for moro
graceful movements, rs she passes to
and fro upon the face of the earth.
Just ono out of twenty-five women
seen passing down n crowded street
knows now to hold her body and how
to lift up and set down her feet natural
~. This is the result of long observa-
ton on the part of the writer, who,
moreover, remarks that that one re-
deeming woman is but a passable walk
err says q writer in the Illustrated
American.
Now, only that woman who goes in
for athletic exercises, or has hardened
to long lectures from tho dress REFORM
ers, ever takes thought as to her daily
bearing In public and at homo. It Is
sufficient that she Is not hunchbacked
or conspicuously u%ngraceful, and though
h doesn't know it, all those long,
flowing skirt draperies, from waist to
foot, hide for her a multitude of what
might almost be Internationally, un-
pleasing movements, that in q man go
under the uncompromising terms of
knock-kneed, b~ow-legged, splay-footed
and SO on, but in her arc hidden, and
only obtrude by the uneasy steps,
switching skirts and lift of shoulders,
by the weak droop of shoulders, I'M
rdigni6ed bend of the head and poise Of
larmstan of which go to make up tho
irregular outlines of an ugly figure.
In those early days, when u toddling
baby, much of this unbeautifulness Of
carriage was learned, nor was it cor
rected; and as very few women consid-
er more than facial beauty necessary
for happiness, they never pause u mo-
ment before the mirror and regard at
tentively the contours of the body, and,
wall1ing back and forth. halt to Judge
whether the motion is regular and full

A DELUDED

The poor, deluded Bohemian journal
list, who is coming down TO Pocahontas
armed with q brace Of revolvcrs and a
'letter from the federal authorities -
evidently thinks he is venturing on a
journey fraught with perils before
which those that confronted Stanley in
Darkest Africa pale into gingerbread
colored ins%igni6cance.
The Hungarian miners around Poca-
hontas are no meek and lamb-like vic
tins of cruel task masters. Even the
letter which nerves Mr.. Heis to this
p%erilous trip acknowledges that they are
starved on bacon three times a day"
If Mr.. Heis will send homo to Hungary
that hungarian miners in America
think they are starved on bacon throc
times n day" there will be an exodus
from the land of Kossuth of unparalleled
magnitude.
But The TIMES printed only Tuesday
morning a dispatch relating how n
hungarian at ~Pocahontas robbed an
other Of $500 and was pursued, caught
and lynched by his own countrymen.
So they have money and wads of it, eh?
And have ierceness and spirit enough
to have q lynching be, eh? Mr.. Heis
ought to stop off at Roanoke, pawn his
revolvers and have a good time on the
procppdS.

as they handle their own financial in

as they handle their own financial in
forests.
They would take a largo view OF
things. They would select officials to
attend to the details just as they do in
their own business, and then they
would see to it that the public improve
ments moved. They wouldn't vote
$751; 900 for a city map when it is going
to cost over $50, 600 to prepare it. They
wouldn't insult the Real Estate Tx
change If it had a suggestion to make.
They wouldn't set up boards of straw
and hope to deceive the public.
THE TIMES makes the confident pre-
diction that, if the bond ordinances are
defeated and new ones passed by a new
and business Council, twelve months
from now the city will have its public
improvements in vastly better shape
than If the freeholders put their money
into the hands OF the present Council.

AMPLE

The Evening World in an otherwise
excellent editorial on the bond ordi-
nances falls into error in its assumption
that the Council has no power to create
an Advisory Board. THE TIMES has
published the opinion of no less learned
a lawyer than Ex-City Solicitor j.. Allen
Watts, that the Council can legally ap-
point an Advisory Board, on the lines
laid down in TIE TIMES of Thursday
last.
No lawyer of prominence in Roanoke
will question the legality of such a
board over his own signature.
Section 80 of the city charter reads:
The City Council may appoint n n X
such officers and clerks as they may
deem proper and necessary, and DEFINE
TIEIR POWERS, and prescribe their
duties. and fix their compensation,
etc, ETC."

UNION STOCK YARDS, CHICAGO, |
Sept. 20, 1891. !
Special to the LIGHT.
Four successive weeks receipts OF
cattle at Chicago have averaged over
81, 900 head; these phenomenal receipts
were moderately well disposed of un-
til the first of this week when it was
hoped lighter receipts and reaction
would take place. But, instead of
improving the situation has gone
from bad to worse; stock water all of
sudden seems to be universally
scarce, men who would be on our
market as buyers of feeders if they
had liberal supply of water, are here
have been forced to ship. With re-
stricted outlet for feeders and three
fold increase in their supply, our mar
ket is doubly depressed.
The glut of unripe western and ma
tive cattle has had most disastrous
effect on prices Of Texas cattle, and
we are sorry to say our sales OF yester-
day and today were about as low as
the lowest point this year.
Mention was made of the fact in our
last weeks letter that Morris had
just sold string of his individual
cattle to Swift at $40; he sold P. D..
Armour 600 OF the same kind yester-
day at $50; averaged 1913.
We sold three loads of Texas steers
yes terday at 2 IS which only averaged
992; compared with other quotations
this looks high, but our salesman
says they were ripe, light shrinkers
of good quality, and he thinks the
price very low, considering the kind.
We reduce quotations Oh cows, heifers
and canning steers 40 to so cts. per
cwt. Bulls and stays have been al
most unstable at /. "a to lao,
The calf market has been heavily
over-supplied with all but very fat,
light weight and has declined fully
75cts. per cwt. within the past three
days. Our sheep salesman reports a
decline in all classes of sheep, range
sheep and lambs declining most, say
% to so cts. per cwt.; we quote Texas
feeders $50 to 8 40; mutton 8 so to 90
per cwt. Eastern buyers have want
ed and taken but few range sheep
