HIGHTsTOwN, June %. 1S91.-The agent
who visited Hightstown on Saturday in
behalf OF exiled russian jews we e
much pleased with their reception. Their
immediate object is TO secure homes and
employment for twenty-five families.
The association which they represent will
purchase or rent improved properties or
build. AS there is litte improved pro-
perry In the market, the agents con-
sidered the feasibility of erecting the re
uuired number of dwellings at short
notice. Employment is assured to a CON
siderable number of the colonists at once
In the shirt factory and the shoe factory.
Supt. Vale. of the former. and Mr.. j. r.
Norton aided the visitors in accomplish
ing their object. A decision will be
reached by the association in n few days.
A further object, which will also pro-
badly be accomplished. is the purchase of
a considerable tract of farming land me
the settlement upon it in due time OF
another colony.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
/ MEXICAN GIRLS WAISTS
A Physician Says They Are Too
Small For Health
Tight Belts.

DIR. j. c. Kellogg, OF Battle Creek,
Mich, spoke at the Washington High
School to the girls of the school dur
ing his visit recently,
He opened his remarks by announc-
ing that he was going to say some
very unpleasant things about young
ladies. Notwithstanding their good
looking faces, he said, most of them
are crippled and deformed.
The doctor has devoted fifteen
years to the study Of the human
figure. He has made measurements
of the Mexicans; the Italian, German
and French peasants, and compared
the size of their waists with those OF
American girls, and has coine to the
conclusion that the average American
woman is deforined, that hen waist is
too small for her body. He had com
pared the waist measurement with
the height, and, rs a result of 1,20J
measurements, found that the average
waist measurement is only thirty-nine
per cent of the height. The average
waist of the American woman is 24.6
inches. The waist of the Venus de
Milo is f~orty-seven per cent of the
height. With such a waist as that a
oma could draw a good big breath.
The waist of woman, he said, ought
to be larger than q mans, because her
liver is larger. He said "a smaller
heart but a larger liver" but not
pleasing the young ladies by this re-
mark, he added: "Only In quantity,
in quality it is otherwise"
The doctor said that those organs
which should be above the waist line
are so pressed down by tight clothing
as to make women deformed.
He called particular attention to the
fact that although a woman doubled
in weight tine measurement of her
waist didn't increase at all.
While in Washington the last few
days DIR. Kellogg has measured
the waists of twelve little girls
in a private school and found
the smallest waist was 90 inches
The average was "a inches; one was
% 1-2 inches andone 26 1-2 inches. and
those waists, he said, will become
smaller as the girls grow older.
These restrictions of the waist cause
many other deformities, such as hol-
low chests, dropping and round
shoulders.
DIR. Kellogg did not see any reason
why women shouldn't be as strong as
men. The Doctor spoke of the Swiss
women who carry heavy burdens on
their shoulders up and down hills,
and said they are among the health
lest women in the world.
He showed by diagrams that the
same evils occasioned in women by
tight clothes were to be found in men
who wore belts.

moral victory, If you Will secured by
the short term benefit orders in Cam
den last week. was entirely due TO the
careless manner ia which the commits
sioner's work in inaugurating the
prosecution was done.
In the ease in question, an officer of
one OF the short term societies was
arrested upon a capias, upon the com
plant of Commissioner Harvey,
and was held in bail. The
case came before Judge Reed
upon motion to discharge the
defendant from bail. In default of
any detailed report of the decision, a
representative OF the Trenton True
American called upon Judge Reed
Yesterday and asked him the ground
of the decision he rendered, discharg-
ing the accused. He explained that
the case was decided upona an affidavit
by Colonel Harvey that was presented
to Supreme Court Commissioner Cas-
sidy. The Court held that the afi-
davit did not set out a aus of action
against the defendant. 1t did not
contain a copy OF the certificate
that was issued to the members
Of the society, nor any facts from
which 1t appeared that the defend
ant was engaged as an agent in any
insurance business under the New
Jersey statutes. The whole case was
decided on the form of the affidavit.
There was no decision as to the liza
bility of the defendant if the certifi-
cate and all the facts concerning the
transaction of the business had been
fully disclosed on the face of the
affidavit. The decision of Judge Reed
simply discharged the defendant from
bail.
OF course this leaves the case just
where it was, as far as the principle
involved goes. 1t is a decision for the
defendant on account of the errors in
procedure OF the prosecuting officials.
Colonel Harvey or his successor can
prepare a proper complaint at any
time, secure proper evidence, and go
ahead with the work of extirpating
the noxious ~swindling concerns. But
meantime gullible news papers have
paraded the decision as a victory for
the short-termers, their agents are
trumpeting it as a ~vindication of the
orders. and weak and foolish people
are being recruited on the strength Of
this miscarriage of justice.
The sooner is appointed in
Colonel Harvey's place, who will stop
the scandal by vigorous action, the
better it will be for the State, and for
the weak dupes whose foolish greed is
leading them into the lions jaws by
hundreds. every day.

Facts Developed 10y the Recent State
Elections.


The noise of great conflict dies
away and the flag of true and I'M
daunted democracy has been carried
forward. In New York, on issues
chiefly national, the party has united
in the support of an excellent candi.
date, with the result that everything is
ours. In Massachusetts, after a stub
born fight, d mocrat is for the second
time chosen governor, the victory be-
ing due To the demand of the people
for frecr trade. In Iowa, a democrat
elected two years ago by an accident,
as il seemed, is successful again by an
vote, and probably carries the entire
state ticket with one exception with
him. In Ohio Mr.. Mckinley, the very
embodiment of protection, the chief ben
efactor of trusts, rings and subsidy
hunters, unites all elements of his own
party. concentrates the forced and vol
untary contributions of ten thousand
manufacturers, and in the face of dem.
ocratic dissenSions succeeds in his can
vass by majority which is not so
much victory as a presage of APP
preaching disaster.
Let us make no mistake about the
situation; the battle is not won. il is
only begun. Republicans find their
lines of communication assaulted, and
they will not in 1892 be able To concen-
tratc their forces in two states. Never.
theless they will contest every inch of
ground with stubborn determination
