Notes From a Lecture BY j. H. Kellogg,
NJ. D., of Battle Creek Sanitarium.
The two things which stand in the
way of young women making the
greatest advancement and taking the
rank they are aiming for, is their arti-
fetal and unwholesome mode of dress
and their lack of physical culture.
With the majority of people the CEN
trail portion of the body is weak and
they are all the time trying to save it
from exercise and strain The hips
pivot the natural hinge of the body,
but instead of bending there most peo-
pie bend above it when they stoop.
Every body ought to be able to bend
over and touch their fingers to the
floor. keeping the knees perfectly stiff.
Some are able to bend in this way until
they can lay the whole hand on the
floor. At a military school the first
thing the young man is taught is cor
rect carriage. and this bending process
is part of the drill They are also re-
quired to walk for SO many hours a
day with head erect. shoulders thrown
back and the hands at their side with
thumb turned out ''ThuuBbs OUT is
what the freshman constantly hears
Not many know how to carry the
body in a forcible manner; they let it
go as it pleases- But forcible carriage
should be taught from childhood until
the muscles get SO as to hold the body
naturally in strong and graceful man

forcible carriage; his neck is arched
with strength. Contrast the appear

his head hanging down and falling to

women fall into such sad muscular de-
cay is because they lack in forcible car
riage.
When a person has a proper pose the
chest is naturally prominent and that
makes curve in the spine above the
hips and throws the hips prominently
outward, preserving a graceful outline
in both back and front of the figure.
But when the figure is depraved with
corsets, the spine is Strengthened, the
chest hattened and the chin protrud.

There is really just as much expression

The Secretary Rcpudiates Some Charges of
the German Government.
WASHINGTON, March 15.---Secretary Rusk
was asked to-day what thought of the state
ment made by Minister Boettieher in the
German reiohstag to the effect that tho new
sanitary measures adopted by the United
states were inadequate. and that Germany
would not rescind the prohibition upon
American hog products. Secretary Rusk
said he could hardly believe such state
ment had been made, for it shows wilful or
pretended Ignorance of legislation now i'll
force in this country. The last meat in
spection law passed by congress provides
for the'most thorough inspection now in
force in any country. ''lf tho ante
mortem examination and microscopic
examination will not satisfy the German
government" he said. 'it is simply because
thoy didn't propose to be satisfied with any
system. This government has suffered im-
putations placed upon it's meat products by
foreign nations to exist under the cover of
such pretexts II long time. hut the time
has about arrived when unjust disorimina-
tion and false statements as to the purity
of our meats must cease. such statements
will no longer be permitted to go unchal-
lenged by this government. and such re-
dress as the laws OF this country permit to
be had should, in my Judgment, DO en-

QUIET AFTER THE STORM.

New ORLEANS, March 15-The city wore
its usual Sunday aspect to-day and there
was no sign of unusual excitement. Crowds
continued to visit the scene of the lynchin2
although few were admitted inside the
prison. Tho prison officials are incensed
over the censure at their failure to make n
more fordimable defense. They say they
did not give MP the keys, and when the
crowd broke in all the officers were not at
their posts. Had they fired Mt the crowd
it would have caused the Htorming, and
perhaps the destruction of the prison and
the sacrifice of many innocent lives within
and outside tho Jail.
Father O'Leary, of the Jesuits. this
morning performed the last sacred rites of

THEY WANT A WAR.

Italians of Chicago Call ON Their Native
Country to Fight.
CHICAGO, March ia large and repre-
sentative meeting of Italians was held here
this evening to consider yesterdays doinQs
at New Orleans. DIR. Volini, the presiding
officer. delivered an impassioned address
calling for reparation by the United States.
and saying if justice be not rendered full
and prompt, Italy will speak even with the
voice of her guns. This was received with
tremendous cheering.
Editor Nalata, of L'America, said the
outrage has no comparison in the history of
any civilized nation. He dlsavowed any
sympathy. with the vendetta, but asked
why the New Orleans authorities permitted
Patterson to assemble thousands of citizens
and harange them to the point of murder,
Charles Barry said the fact that promi-
nent men took part in the massacre makes
1t doubly infamous.
Galmagia, of L'Italia, said he had per-
sonaily seen all tho victims Of the mob and
believed them innocent of the crime
charged. People who nave no respect for
their laws or the verdicts of their own furies,
said he, are worse than savages. Repara-
ton is demanded, and Italy should send a
fleet over here to command respect and as
sert the rights of her citizens.
Many other addresses were delivered and
a message of formal protest sent to Score
tary of State Blaine. A resolution was also
adopted, protesting against the killing as
unworthy of civilized people and appeal
ing to the Italian and the United States
governments for immediate and full repair

The Chilian Rebels Draw the Govern

Deadly Trap.
Colonel Robles Wounded In Battle
and Murdered After His
Capture.
The Insurgents Follow Up Their Victory
With a General Massacre Of the
Wounded Officers.

LONDON. March 15.---The Times has dis
patch from Santiago giving the official
version Of the recent battle in Chilli From
this 1t appears that Col. Kobles, who CON-
manded the government troops on the 9Th
inst. being short OF provisions, rashly
abandoned strong position on Mount So
bastapol and with $4,000 infantry, twenty
five cavalry and a few guns attacked force
OF 2,5OO rebels. At critical moment the
enemy by decoy truce for parley. opened
fire at close quarters. killing or wounding
two-thirds of the government troops. Col.
Robles was wounded early in the battle,
and when captured was murdered. A gen.
eral massacre of wounded officers ensued.
The loss of insurgents is estimated at thirty
killed and 400 wounded. President Balma-
ceda admits the gravity Of the disaster,
which places the province of Tara paca en-
tirely in the hands of the insurg ents.
President Balmeoda says, however, the
government has 10000 troops t it's disposal
The government has also an ample supply
of funds. The future scene of operations
will probably be nearer Valparaiso.

A Claim That 1t Was Never Sent After
Being Written.
New York, March 15.--The Keokuk, Iowa.
correspondent of the New York World
sends dispatch to his paper on the now
celebrated Watterson-Hill letter in which
he says: Early in January Col Watterson
came to Iowa on lecturing tour With
democrats he discussed politics, and in one
instance he referred with more than usual
interest to the next presidential contest.
He gave it as his opinion that one of the
results of the late election would be the
nomination OF Cleveland. and he exp .sed
desire for democratic harmony in the
country at large, and especially in New
York. With that object in view he said he
had written letter to Gov. Hill, which he
went on to describe minutely descrip-
tion which correspondent exactly with the
letter which appeared soon after that in
the columns of the 'press and which
Gov. Hill denied ever having received. Mr.
Watterson further said that after writing
the letter doubts arose in his mind al
to whether it would most help or hurt mat
ters, and not being able to satisfy himself
on that point he mailed the9he letter to
Mr.. Cleveland and asked his advice in the
matter. Mr.. Cleveland kept the letter two
weeks ana tnen returned 1t with the remark
that he doubted the advisabiiity of sending
it. MIR. Watterson thereupon threw it into
the waste hrsket. from which he no doubt
supposed IL would never be resurrected,
How the letter finally got into plint he
probably does not know. but that it was
either tished out of the waste paper recep-
tacle of the Courier Journal office or that
copy of it was surreptitiously made while it
was in Mr. Cleveand's possession there
can be no doubt. 1t will be remembered
that in reply to Gov. Hills denial of the
receipt of the letter Mr.. Watterson no.
where says he sent it, and beyond that his
denial is evasive.
