Lifting and carrying the crown or the head very high straightens the spine and lifts every organ and every part of the body to It's normal place. Part by part the body Is free and no section of 1t expresses another; the head Is lifted from the neck, the neck from the chest. the chest from the hips and abdomina, section, and so are they from the knees, and hence the ankles have no undue strain upon them, but they carry only due and fair amount of the weight of the body. In this way one starts to walk with the least amount of friction of the parts and an actively elastic condition Is super induced at the beginning.
 When the whole body Is thus in the best condition for walking. the chest naturally takes { he leadership The A est is the higher part which directs the lower, the legs espe- cIally. The centre of the chest should be kept strong and reposeful, so that watching

trials for the purpose of demon.
stratins her capabllitie. in the
United States navy, is being
overhauled at City Island and put
in 6rst~elass condition fer the
coming tests.
The Prster was built In Bridge
port Conn.,, by her inventor and
captain, Simon Lake. She was
designed for harbor defense She
Is sixty feet long, Of eleven feet
beam, draws twelve feet of water
and weighs about 200 tons. She
Is built of steel and equipped with
two wheels to enable her to travel
along the bottom of the sea. Her
motive power is electricity when
submerged and gasolene when
cruising awash. There are two
torpedo boats, one fore and one
aft and an opening in her bow
will admit of a diver leaving the
boat to cut cables or mine con>
nsctions. Her builder believes
she can destroy submarine defen.
ses in any harbor. During>>re.
cent trials she carried crew of
eight men and nine passengers.
A speed of - knots was easily
made on her surface run.

COPPER BUSINESS
 OF THE YEAR 1902
An Increase ill Both Production and
 Consumption.

New York, January 3.-According to report compiled by the New York Metal exchange there has been an in- crease in the production or copper fCN the year just closed. The figures for the production in 1902 are 292,s $50 tons as compared with 266, ,721 tons in 1901. Adding the net importations of foreign copper the total for 1902 is 46S, 757 tons compared with 32S,OO2 in 1901. The ex- portations, however, have been nearly doubled.
 In 1902 the total exports of copper were 1884 435 tons against 9S,9i1 in 1901 Consumption also increased probably on account of low prices. and it is es- timated that the country consumed 203,OO0 tons last year compared with 165, 900 in 1901.
 Summing up the results of the year, the statement shows that the stocks at the mines, on transportation, at re- fineries and in warehouses are estfm- ated to be 133.S13 tons at the end of the year.

STATE OF MISSOURI
 HAS BEEN SHOWN
That Beef Trust Exists Within its
 Borders

Jefferson City, Mo, January g. Special Commissioner I. H. Kiniey of Kansas City. appointed to take testi- mony in the custer proceedings of At torney General Crow on the charge of the existence of beef trust, filed his report in the supreme court tonight. It finds that the Armour Packing com. pany, Nelson, Morris & Co.,, Swift &, Co.,, The Hammond Packing company, The Cudahy Packing company and The Schwarzschild & Sulzberger company are guilty of entering into an agree ment to fix and maintain prices for the sale of dressed beef and pork in Mis- souri. They are not all the companies, however, operating in St. Joseph, Kan sas City and St. Louis. It is set forth that the prices are fixed through agents, managers and solicitors and many times by managers of coolers in these cities.
 The Henry Krug Packing company of St. Joseph was found not to have been in the combination, and conse- quently the report will release it from legal proceedings.

THE MEXICAN WAY
 OF BREAKING RINGS
Also its way of Protecting the
 Poor.

Mexico, Mex, January 3.-The recent advance in the price of wheat caused the bakers here to diminish the s:ze of the loaVes while charging the same price and this worked a hardship on the poorer classes. The government is determined that the wheat ring which has been mOnOpolizing the grain mar ket shall be dealt with with much se- vcrity. For this purpose the recent Ge- cree taking off the duties on wheat was issued, and the railroads have reduced rates from the border.
 The city government proposes to es- tablish municipal bakeries and sell bread at cost to the poor. The policy of the government is to break up all monopolies that raise the price of living to the masses.

NORTHWEST
 UNDER WATER Sea Separates Seattle From
 Tacoma
Many of the Adjacent Towns are in the Flood. The Railway Service Further Crippled by Snow Slides is all but Abandoned.

Seattle, Wash, January 3, - The
 Great Northern coast line and the
 Northern Pacifc's line to Summas are
 the only lines of railroad running out
 of Seattle which are open tonight. For three hours today even these lines were
 blocked by slides.
 Floods have interrupted the train
 service on the west side of the noun
 tain and slides in the mountains added
 to the trouble. In addition there have
 been numerous small slides occurring
 on the west side lines.
 At : o'clock tonight the climax in the
 railroad flood situation was reached when the White and Stuck rivers in King and Pierce counties went out of , their banks, burying the inter-subur- ban and the Northern Pacific tracks
 between Seattle and Tacoma several feet under water, flooding the valley between Auburn and Kent and driv- ing many residents all through the White River valley out of their homes. The train service between Seattle and Tacoma has been abandoned, and at midnight it was stated that there
 was no telling when it would be re- established. Other parts of the inter urban tracks near Kent are under three | feet of water and there are several washouts, the extent of which is not known. All the wires to Kent are down. and the telephone system is working imperfectly. The Meeker yards near Kent are under eight feet
 of water and the waters are running at mad gait all over the valley. The | Northern Pacific advices received at 10 o'clock tonight from Auburn are to the , effect that there are several bad wash outs in the vicinity of Auburn and that the big bridge between Auburn and Tacoma was tottering and ready ' to go out at any time
 1 The streets in the towns of Kent, Christopher. Auburn, Darlington and others in that vicinity are flooded and there is no telling how great the dam age to property will be, but it was said
 that it will be very heavy.

 The friends of the statehood bill arc ready to have a vote on that bill after the reading of the journal in the sen ate on Monday or at any moment or hour thereafter. The sooner the bet ter. The bill has influential friends in the senate among the republicans. In my opinion it will pass. There is some talk of going on with the debate on the trust bill.

Washington, January 3.-The state department has received confirmatory advice from Pekin of the declination of the powers to receive the second in demnity installment on the silver basis It is not understood that the declina- ton was accompanied by a threat but the action itself is regarded as sinister, if. as has been suggested, it is not taken with 6 view of making a record of the position of the powers in this matter.
 The situation is regarded here as warranting some concern, though, un- less the Washington government is to ultimately discredit every statement of the powers in the past two years, whenever the possibility of a division of China came up, it cannot believe that there is an intention to proceed
