roadsf That's the question hundreds of think
ing men are asking these days. The Milwaukee
isn't SO much Interested in stealing the capital
from the Northwestern as the latter is in retaining
a monopoly Of any prestige given to it's system by
holding it far out to one end of it.. The North
western is now running two passenger trains a day
INTO Mitchell and two out, giving d night and day
service and theybe kind of one to St. Paul and
Minneapolis. 1t is fully equal if not. better than
the service it gives Pierre-and without and cap
ltal to boost it either. Consequently it would not
be depriving the Northwestern of any privileges it
now enjoys By locating the capital at Mitchell.
But it would add much to the privileges and con
yeniences Of the people. who support the capital
and own ito add to the present railway advan-
tages the greatest railway advantages the greatest
railway system in the state--the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul. We mistake the temper of the
people Of South Dakata if they are content to hold
their seat Of government at the caprice Of Il single
railroad system.-Mitchell Republican.

The Unfinished Capitol Frieze.

To the Editor of The Evening Star.
The appropriate design for the vacant
nanel in the frieze of the rotunda of the
Capitol relating to the civil war every
now and then comes up for discussion. and
will continue to do so until the space is
filled. The various pictorial designs sub
mitted for public comment have met with
grave objections. The subject is of mani
fest difficulty, as at the very first there is
an unwritten law against anything in the
Capitol building concerning the civil war.
The fight of the Monitor is represented and
recalled by a painting, which is allowed to
remain in the Senate wing, as ii marks
the beginning of a new era in naval con-
struction. Yet the appropriate place for 1T
is upon the walls of the Navy Department.
Again, we do not like to be reminded that
human slavery was ever an American in
Stitution, nor do we care to know that
American citizens although in rebellion,
ever surrendered. The mighty, overpower-
ing fact of the civil war and the keynote
of the administration of Abraham Lincoln
was the preservation of the Union which
our forefathers had established. To put
this into visible Interpretation in a mural
painting is probably beyond the genius of
any living artist. ALI we can do is to wait
until one becomes known. If such a design
is decided upon, and until it is possible
for it to be drawn to stay as long as the
Capitol walls shall last, / venture to make
the suggestion that the space for the time
pie inscription: "'1S61-1S65. The Nation
Was Preserved. Amen" If this be done,

Union at that time will say aloud. Amen"

The Local Democratic Delegation.

To the Editor of The Evening Star.
No ole could have been more surprised
than l by the announcement yesterday that
1t was in contemplation to put in the local
field ticket for delegates to st. Louis in
the interest of Judge Parker. 1 never heard
such suggestion made by any one, and so
little have l had to do with the makeup
of the local democratic convention that l
do not know the name of even one man who
expects to run as a delegate thereto, nor
have the faintest idea who will be chosen
or even proposed as delegates to the ma
tional convention.
/ do not wish, however to be under
stood as having no interest in the premises;
quite the contrary. A great many of those
in both parties greatly underrate the i'm
trict to the respective national conventions
Mr.. Cleveland was nominated in 1892 by the
votes of the territorial delegates, including
those from the District after the roll call
of states had shown that he was, as | now
remember. seventeen votes short of the
necessary two-thirds. The two votes from
this District decided his nomination giving
him the requisite votes when their names
were reached in the roll CALL and stranger
things have happened than that History
may repeat itself at the coming convention
II is, therefore, possible that the delega-
ton from this District may be the means
of naming the next President of the United
States, and good citizens and good party
men, instead of beittling the local con-
tests, should do their part toward seeing
that they result in the selection of worthy
and, if possible, influential representa- ives

BRYAN Amuses Parker.

A dispatch from Kingston, N Y. saws:
Judge Parker left here for Albany, expect
ing to arrive in time for the opening SEES
sion of the court of appeals. He said he
expected to spend the week in Albany In
good, solid work on the calendar of that
court and would find very little time to de-
vote to presidential booms or politics of any
kind. When asked by a New York Tribune
reporter If he had any comment to make
on the Chicago criticism of William ].
Bryan on the democratic platform framed
by the recent state convention at Albany,
he threw hack his head and laughed
heartily. He was evidently surprised at
the temerity of the question. and seemed at
first to regard 1t as a joke. But the man.

bold utterances as to himself personally
and his political platform he was asked to

own sense of personal discomfort the pain
full consciousness of feeling the eye of every
observer taking, as it We're his or her meas
urements and criticsing the outlines. Few
sufferers, however, understand how SIM
pie are the means by which relief can be OBJ
tanned. l shall in this connection mention
some of them.
Exercise of the abdominal muscles has
been found to be the most effective way
of overcoming this tendency to undue size
below the belt. No part of the body is
generally exercised little. The easiest
and simplest of the exercises for the re-
duction of the abdomen is bending back and
forth from waist. Raise the arms over
the head, take in full breath and bend the
body back from the waist without allowing
the hip or knee to move. Do this very slow
ly at first The most delicately organized of
women can suffer possible discomfort
from 1t. Great care should then be taken to
do the exercise carefully. After having bent
back as far as possible, with the arms still
above the head, bend forward, still very
slowly, while eXhaling and with the hips
and knees still unmoved, see how near the
hands can be brought to the floor. Practice
this ten times daily.
Draw in the Abdomen.
An exercise rather more difficult to ac-
quire depends for it's efficiency upon the
power of the individual to stand upright
and contract the abdomen at will. Stand
ing erect, draw in the abdomen. While
holding it in draw up the chest mot the
shoulders), moving the upper part of the
body little from side to side to get the
chest well up. This pulls. as 1t We're, the
abdomen after it In this way the inert
muscles are strengthened and the weight
of the flesh is overcome and distributed.
Now one with stronger action on the
abdominal muscles. Lie fiat on the floor
on your back, keeping the knees unbent
now bring legs up to a vertical, and let
them back slowly, six to eight times. Next,
come to a sitting position, back slowly six
to eight times.

While England was suffering the worst
of the disasters of the recent war in Soutb
Africa the Russian government sent a Sc
cret embassy to Lassa, carrying rich pres
ents and large sums of money to the grand

ing permission to construct branch from
it's Siberian railway to Lassa across Chi
nese Turkestan. The grand lama after
ward sent an embassy to return the visit
at st. Petersburg. which was received
with great henors and presented with rich
gifts The grand lama, in recognition of
these attentions, conferred upon the car
the title of Lord and Guardian of the

it is particularly significant in this case,
because it implies protection.

kindly expressions OF appreciation for
Lewiston's efforts in their behalf.
The total cost of entertaining the
