THE ART OF WALKING.
1t Can Be Learned by Careful
Study and Practice.

Study and Practice.
Something that is very much neg
lected nowadays among young women
is the art of walking well. Most people
reached their desired destination at the
cost of great deal of scrambling, of
jerking shoulders, Of angular elbows
working like the vans of windmill. OF
arms laboring like oars, swinging hips,
heads nOdding as a cows does when
she walks, the gown flung up
behind at every movement OF the
heels, the knees bent, and the
feet lifted with the stiffness of jump
ing-jack pulled by string: and, pro-
vided they reach the point aimed for,
goodly proportion of their number think
no more about it. Others, again, walk
with fieXibility (thatis to say, with the
want of it, of peripatetic ramrod, the
head, the back, the legs, the feet all
moving together with simultaneous
and unjointed precision that gives them
the air of automatic playing at life, and
the imperturbable srestraint no more
like the dignity or compOsure desired
than an angle is like the line of beauty.
There are others still who walk with
a mince and a wriggle which are pain
full to see, which make one think of
bitching cankerworm. and welcome
heartily the sight of the no less repre-
hensible Amazon who stalks onward
without measuring her steps, hit or
miss, so that she gets over the ground,
or the loose jOinted individual who rat
ties along as if every bone in her body
was hung on a wire, like those of the
skeleton in the physicians closet. There,
too. is the tripping young thing at
whose figure you never glance without
thinking of the topical song, "One, Two,
Three, Balance Like Me-" and among
all the others in the great procession
there are those also who walk with such
pains and effort-as if the proper work
and function of each muscle and mem
Der were 10 be remembered first-that
you half fancy they may have had the
same lesson at the feet of the dancing
man that he gave good Peter in the
bad Ballads"
Come, walk like this the dancer said;
"Stick out your toes, stick in your head;
Stalk on with quick, galvanic tread,
Your fingers thus extend
The attitudes considered quaint"
There are very few who walk with
the easy, eauable grace that would seem
to proceed from all easy and equable
mind, neither hurrying impetuously and
HCIuIlN ana WIFI pronounced oXerIlOll
and evident eager desire to reach some
point, or with the effort to condOne de-
lay, nor dawdling along as if theyE had
not an object in mind and nothing were
of any consequence.
Decent mental reserves, IL is thus to
be noted, can be maintained almost as
much III the gait as in the conversation;
and it is to be doubted if we have the
right to obtrude our business and wor-
rles and ennuis upon public observa-
ton, as we do by any other than calm
and even motion, whether the motion
be swift or slow. OF course one may
walk as rapidly as necessary. or as lott
eringly as inclination prompts, but
equally, of course, without the personal
betrayal of the impatient nervous mo-
ton of haste or the aimless one of irres-
olution.

Lumber Exchange and the other large office
buildings can be secured to lodge our visit
ors in, and to me it seems the easiest thing
in the world to provide for every man that
will come. As soon as | get through with
the work that has accumulated during my
absence l shall start out with Mr. Regain, and
! haye no doubt we can raise the money at
once"
Unlike Evans, Mr.. Eustis was ready
and willing to talk politics. As mat
ter of fact, he went East for the pur-
pose of satisfying himself about
Blaine's health. He did it. Blaine
isn't sick, he says, only tired. Then he
went on to talk about Blaine's popular
ity. Everybody knows how Mr.. Eustis
feels on that question. He talked just
that way yesterday. He never heard
any other name than Blaine'S men
toned. Evans corroborates him on the
Blaine subject. Evans did drop into
Democratic politics long enough to say
that DO other presidential candidate
save Cleveland is being considered in
the East.

Judge Rea Talks.

Judge John P. Rea returned yesterday
from Detroit, Mich, where he has been
in attendance upon the National En-
campment of the G. A. r. He is en-
thusiastic over the great success of the
eneampment, and in speaking of the
matter of establishing a different de
partment for the colored soldiers. he
states that the committee to which that
important question was referred can
vassed the subject thoroughly for over
& day and a half. and finally decided
that it would not be advisable. He does
not believe that the white soldiers of
the South will enforce their threat to
withdraw if the measure were not
adopted.

JUST AS EASY!
r. G. Evans and W. H. Eustis Say
Minneapolis Can Have That Con-
uanfiOD

II. u. Evans anu W. N. LuStis say
Minneapolis Can Have That Con-
VentiOn.
Two prominent Minneapolis Repub-
Iicans returned from the East yesterday
R. G. Evans and William Henry
Eustis. Both were full TO the neck of
convention enthusiasm. And that was
naturally the first question put to them
by every one. Evans had this to say:
Minneapolis can have the convention if
she can satisfy the committee that she can
take care of the people. That is my opinion.
l had a talk with Mr.. ClarksOn, the chairman
of the national committee, and while he is
not in position to pledge himself feel GER
tain that he looks very favOrably upon Min
ueapolis The people throughout the East,
and especially New England. are quite en-
thusiastic for MINNEAPOLIS. They want to
come and see us. They regard us as the best
town financially in the country and town
that is bound TO forge ahead. so there is quite
a curiosity on the paat OF many of them TO
visit US and the Northwest in general"
On the subject of Matt Quay and the
Republican national committee Evans
was a veritable clam. He said he
didn't see Quay, and he had nothing to
say about the committee. He hadn't
mixed in politics at all. He went East
on business.
William Henry Eustis was just as
confident as Evans. He said:
There is no more doubt about Minneapo-
lis getting the national convention, if she
wants it. There are only two questions, both
of which / think can be satisfactorily dis
posed of. If Minneapolis raises the guaran-
Zee fund necessary. then there is nothing left
but the question of finding accommodations
I am sure we shall be able to convince the
committee that we have room enough in
Minneapolis for all the delegates and
alternates and the people who must
be here. the visitors and speeta-
tors and the crowd that attends convention
can find ample accommodation in st. Paul
ana at the lakes. l am satisfied that the

THE HEAT CRAzED HIM.
Ed Frost Becomes Suddenly In
sane, and browns Himself.


BENJAMIN Frost, a farmer who re-
sides in Minneapolis Park. reported to
Coroner BYrnes yesterday that his son
Edward had committed suicide Satur-
urday by drowning himself in a small
pool known as Mengelkoch's lake. stu
ated near Medicine lake. The deceased
was about forty years of age and I'M
married. and worked on his fathers
farm. For some time he has been act
ing very strangely, and his family and
associates concluded that his mind was
affected, although his condition was not
regarded as very serious. The heat of
the last few days appeared to have a
serious effect upon MIN, and Saturday
afternoon, after a hard days work in
the sun, he started away from his COM
panions on a run. They followed, and
tracked him to the lake, where some of
his clothing was found lying on the
bank. Suicide was at once suspected,
and the lake was dragged but without
result until yesterday morning, when
the body came to the surface. The re-
mains were removed to the family resi-
dence. where they now lie. Coroner
Bvrnes. after visiting the place, de-
cided that no inquest would be neces-
sarv. and the burial will take place to-

The Park Police officers.

The park board committee on police
held another meeting yesterday TO con-
slider the charges recently preferred
against officers ) and 6, who are sta
toned at Minnehaha park. One witness
appeared against officer No. 6. but he
failed to present a very strong case. A
couple of communications were pre-
scented, in which accusations were made
against No. ). After the testimony
against No. 6 had been heard and the
communications had been read, it was
decided to adjourn the hearing until to-
morrow TO allow further testimony to be
putin. Superintendent Berry speaks
very highly of the accused officers and
says they are among the best on the
force under his snperyisiOn.

A BEAR ON FIRE.
The Novel Plan of Defense of a
Pennsylvania Man.

Easton pa Express.
Artemus Harper, of Pocono:Mount-
ain, left A. E. Brundage's store, on
SINNERS creek. last Friday afternoon
for his home, five miles distant, so the
story goes. He had a two-year-old
heifer tied behind the wagon, and when
he got into the WestfOrd woods, on the
summit of the mountain, he hitched his
team to tree and trudged over to a
swamp TO pick a basket of greens.
In a short time Mr.. Harper heard
the heifer believing as though she
was in distress. Running back to the
road he found a big she-bear claWiug at
the heifer's neck. Before he could do
anything the heifer broke the rope and
started to run, but the bear bore down
and tore a hole in her throat. The
helpless heifer fell on her side and the
bear ripped her bag loose and began to
devOur it.
Mr.. Harper started to club the bear at
once, and the enraged beast sprung at
him, knocked him fiat and Immediately
bounced on the heifer again. He was
badly hurt by the fall. and, seeing that
the heifer was dead and that the bear
was craZed from hunger, he made up
his mind not to run the risk again OF
losing his own life. He had no weapon
better than a club, but in his pocket
there was flask of gunpowder that he
had bought at the store.
Stealing up behind the bear, he
poured the powder into the long hair
OH her back. Then he threw a lighted
match Into her hair. 1t iguited the
powder, there was an instantaneous
flash along her back and the bear sud-
denly forgot about her hunger. sprang
into the bushes anG went tearing and
bowling into the woods. The bear was
all ablaZe when Mr. Harper got his last
glimpse of her. and she continued to
roar until she had been out of sight two
or three minutes, but she didn't return.
Mr.. Harper cut the heiIer's throat, and
thep he drove on to Calvin Van Beyn's
place. Mr.. Van Beyn ard two of his
sons went to the woods with Mr.. Har-
per. The carcass of the heifer was load
ed on the wagon. and Mr.. Harper drove
it home and divided the beef among his
neighbors.
