WE 90 NOT SIT CORRECTLY,
| Americans as Nation Arc Careless in
| Matters of This Kind,

matters OF This Kind.
From the Kansas City Star.
Schools for physical culture are now
claiming that we as a nation do not
know how to sit correctly. Americans,
they say, pay less attention to the hy-
giene of attitude in sitting than do
other nations, and the consequence is
that we are degenerating into a nation
of dyspeptics. In France and in Ger
many school children get q regular
course of instruction as to the correct
attitude to be adopted in sitting, and
in those countries stomach troubles are
far less prevalent than in countries
where no precautions are taken to
teach children to sit without relaxing
themselves. A relaxed position in sit
ting, it is said, causes the stomach to
be crowded out of position. After a
time the displacement becomes chron-
lc.. when the stomach is prolapsed the
food cannot readily find its way out of
1t. and. being retained there longer than
1t should be, undergoes fermentation
and putrefaction processes are set up
whereby the system is not only robbed
of the nutrient elements necessary for
the proper nourishment of the blood
and repair of the tissues, but. through
the conversion of the food into pto-
maines and other poisonous substances,
the whole body is contaminated
On these grounds physicians who
teach physical culture assert that it is
not the ice water that we drink nor
the soda water, nor the amount of
smoking that men folk indulge in that
causes us to be a nation of dyspeptics,
but the bad pastures that we adopt
when sitting. A correct attitude in sit
ting requires proper height and width
of seat, a desk or table of the proper
height when desk work is required, and
a proportionate amount of care upon
the part of the pupid to sit upon his
seat in a proper position. The height
of the chair you sit in while writing
and that of the desk you write at are
matters of greatest Importance. The
seat of the chair should be exactly
one-quarter of your heipht from the
floor. Thus, If you are five feet high,
the chair should be Is inches. The
width of the seat should exactly equal
its height, and it should slope back
wards three quarters of an inch to the
foot. The back should be a trif1e low
er than the seat and sloped slightly,
but not too much. Finally, your desk
should be two-thirds as high again as
the seat of your chair. Thus. if your
seat is is inches. the desk should be
80 inches in height. The relation of the
person to the seat should be such that
while the hips and shoulders touch the
back of the seat, the other portions of
the back remain clear. The center of
the back cannot touch the back of the
seat without relaxation of the muscles
and resulting fairness of the chest, and
perhaps of the stomach. provided, of
course, the seat back has a backward
curvature.

ANACONDA NEWS.
NOVEL POINT At ISSUE
Involves an Undetermined Phase
OF the Bankruptcy Law.
JUDGE KENNEDY ENIOINED
Must Not Try to Collect on an Exc
cution Issued Against a Man
Who Went Through the
Bankruptcy, Court.

A case unique in litigation under the
rev federal bankruptcy law is now agi-
tating the lawyers Of the Anaconda bar
1t involves novel point in the new
law, which might be termed bank
ruptcy made easy" and a point which
has never been decided.
2 AS preliminary fact it may be stated
that an injunction issued by Judge
Knowles of the United States district
served on Judge ]. M. Kennedy of this
city restraining him from using the
processes of his court to collect judg-
ment against Thaddeus Schey.
Several months ago F. c. Wills of this
city secured a judgment for $3.50 against
Thaddeus Schey in the court of Judge
Fitzgerald, predecessor of Judge Ken
nedy. Subsequent to the securing of
the Judgment Schey filed petition in
bankruptcy in the United States court.
After the adjudication in bankruptcy
Schey made a new promise to pay the
claim of Wills and did pay something
on the bill
Recently Wills, Schey being unable to
pay the full amount, asked that an exc
cution issue. Accordingly Judge Ken
nedy issued 1t on Judge Fitzgerald's old
judgment. Ihereupon Colonel O'Leary,
attorney for Schey, filed a motion to
recall the execution on the ground that
the matter had passed out Of Judge
kennedy's jurisdiction and was now
exclusively in the hands of the bank
REPRESENTATIVES, the United States
diStrict-court The motion was argued
at length. Judge Kennedy overruled
the motion and held that inasmuch as
the defendant had made a new promise
to pay and had entered into a new con-
tract with Wills subsequent to the ad-
Judication in bankruptcy, the execution
would lie against his earnings.
Several days ago Colonel O'Leary ap-
piled to Judge Knowles in the United
states district court to restrain Ken
nedy from issuing any further execu-
tons and from seeking to have the
present execution collected, although
1880 has already been collected on it,
A temporary injunction was issued and
Judge Kennedy, the plaintiff and the
Copper City Commercial company in
whose hands the $3.50 was, command
ed to appear before Judge Knowles at
Helena next Monday to show cause why
the injunction should not be made per-
manent. Attorney ]. r. Boarman,
counsel for Mr.. Wills, will represe 1T
them at Helena. The case is being fol-
lowed with interest by the legal fra
ternity.

LIVELY OLD SOLDIERS.
Two of Them Run an Exciting Foot Race
to Decide q Dispute.

All because of a dispute over the
relative merits of civil war and pres
ent day American soldiers, a foot race
was run yesterday in the alley in the
rear of the Copper City store between
two aged members of the Grand Army
of the Republic. 1t was brilliant,
but one-sded affair. Here is the man
ner in which the judge of the contest,
himself an old soldier, describes the
race: w..
1T seems a number of Grand Army
veterans were discussing the, abilities
of their former superiors regarding
qualifications as officers, ETC., when
suddenly clouded expression came
over one of its members and he vehem-
emily remarked that he was as young
and vigorous as when first drafted, and
could even at this late day run a race
of 100 yards that would cause the cham
pion foot racer of the world to gaze
upon them with envy as they left the
post with the expectation of close, but
brilliant finish.
After many minutes. consumed in
preliminaries, it was finally decided
that D. Heffron and b. Colder, two
eminent relics Of the civil war, retire to
the rear of the Copper City CONNER
cial company's esta blshment where a
fair and impartial test Of speed could
be witnessed by eager spectators and
conscientious judges and starters, ar
rayed there unconscious of the import
ance of the occasion.
1.-TWO veterans being designated as
starters and two sympathizers of the
same noble order being named, elected
and qualified as judges, the race was
called with Eston in the box. and after
due and deliberate instructions, the
contestants toed the scratch, after hav-
ing read the rules to govern the per-
Torrance, which specificalley stated
that the same be run on a broad plank

LAS before stated, the old but trusted
veterans remained under strict orders
of Starter Waterbury, neither knowing
when the one, two, three would come
from their comrades sun-burned lips
parched by the shadow of the west
wing of the Copper City store.
"A start was made with Colder in
the lead several feet, but unfortunately
he had forgotten to remove his coat
and vest, which his willy contestant had
not overlooked, and in gazing around
to cast a last glance, as he supposed,

A RIP VAN WINKLE.
Job Cleveland Knew Nothing About
the War Revenue Tax.

ASHEVILLE, N. c., Dec. D.-Job Cleve-
land, a cousin OF ex-President Grover
Cleveland, was initiated into the mysteries
of the war tax in the office of Internal
Revenue Collector Harkins to-day. The
old man Is a manufacturer of wine and
leads a secluded life in Buncombe county.
For some time reports have come to Col
lector Harkins's olloe that Mr.. Cleveland
was violating the revenue law by failing
to affix a stamp on each bottle he put up.
The collector wrote him a letter asking
him to come in and make an accounting.
To-day Mr.. Cleveland answered in person.
The collector put his case to his visitor,
informing him that the new law required
stamp for every bottle of wine. The old
man was astounded. In his seclusion he had
learned nothing Of the law to raise money
for prosecuting the war and he had gone
on innocently violating 1t. AS soon as the
case was made clear to him he made out a
statement of back tax due by him, swore
to it, paid the amount and bought a sup
ply of stamps for future use. Mr.. Cleve-
land is seventy-four years of age and
came here from New York some years
ago. He lives alone.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-It has come 70
the knowledge Of Republican congressional
leaders that the Republican national COM
mittee did not accept the Payne resolution
for a readjustment OF the basis of repre-
sentation in the convention, not because a
majority OF the committee was against the
principle of the plan. but because Of the
ruling opinion that Congress should prop
erly take the initiative in the matter and
thus lay the foundation for delegate reap
portionment. Congress is therefore ex-
pected to do something TO meet conditions
in the Southern States. Indeed, ii Is now
known that members OF the national COM
mittee were induced TO change front on
the assurance that Congress would en-
deavor to deal with the situation in such
a manner that the objects OF the Payne
resolution would be eventually obtained.
THESE readjustments can be accomplished
eQuitably. 1t is believed. along the lines OF

PENSION PROPOSED.
Fairbanks and Lands Ask $1,000 a
Year for Mrs. LawtOn.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Fair
banks to-day introduced bill granting
pension of 5000 a year to the widow of
General Lawton. Representative Landis
of Indiana, introduced similar bill in the
House. Mr.. Lands represents the district
recruited. He desired to secure immediate
consideration for the bill, and a request
to this effect would have been made had
not the rules imperatively required that
the bill must first go to the regular COM
mittee. Moreover, bill of somewhat sim
liar tenor had been introduced for pen
sioning the widow of the late Gen. Guy W
Henry, who was governor general of Porto
Rico. and as this is pending before the
committee it was felt to be desirable to
make no distinctions.
Senator Fairbanks saw the President to-
day In regard to the return of General
Lawton's body to the United States. The
senator suggested that the funeral cere-
monies be given something of a national
character. While no positive action has
yet been taken in the premises, it is the
wish of high army and administration off,
cials that General Lawtons body be
brought to Washington and buried in
Arlington with military honors. Mrs. Law
tons wishes will be respected whatever
they may be, as to the disposition to be
made of the remains of her heroic hus-
band
