1t is not the loss Of seven small forti.

taking of 300 prisoners that has created
a panic in Spain, but the fear that the
event may be taken advantage of by
the United States to recognize the

to speedily retake the town is produced

No representative of the Spanish

York. There is no one here temporarily
in charge of the delegation.
General Julio Sanguilly. the famous
Cuban patriot, has sent a telegram to

is possible that he may assume control

of the body is allowed to lean down on
either hip.
The arms should hang to the side,
and in ordinary walking should be left
entirely free; they will then swing
naturally and gracefully. In striding
out, do not make any attempt to step
first on the ball of the foot, as one is
nearly always told That may do for
the dancing hall, but think it is non
sense for street walking. A graceful
walk is simply the ordinary square heel
and toe; plant the heel firmly, keeping
the knee tolerably stiff jointed; now
roll the foot forward with a perfectly
smooth motion until you are standing
on the toes; by that time the other leg
should have been coming forward and
the heel is planted down with the toes
slightly raised. Directly thereafter the
toes of the rear foot are taken off
ground and that leg in turn is thrown
forward, while the front foot rolls it's
weight from the heel to the toe. Watch
the feet of a graceful girl walker, and
you will see that that is the plain, sim
pie motion. A graceful dude is the one
that affects the cat family thread on the
toes, while the average man is said to
walk on his heels because he does not
raise from heel to toe, but plants his
front foot while the rear one is still rest
ing on the heel, and not on the toe.
In a racing walk the motion is more
artificial. In order to lengthen stride
the hip is swung forward at each step
as far as possible. a habit carefully
to be avoided by graceful street pedes-

while the foot is on the ground, to give

the race. The lower arms are raised
and swung to and fro with hard shout

for the feet, the motion is as in ordinary
walking except that the heel is planted
with great force and with the toe we'll
up. The head must be thrown far back,
the shoulders squared and the whole
upper body inclined at an angle slightly
backward. e. II. GUNDLACH.
