The New Corset.

The new corset, while remaining
the straight front effect, is not so
shaped as to permit much of the
former abnormal drawing down over
the hips and abdomen of that article,
and is so constructed as to leave no
uncorseted space below the bust
that is, in the properly developed fig
ures. The new corsets have a more
pronounced curve over the hips and
a spring at the back that make the
waist appear smaller and more near
ly round. The new corset is not
high-busted. but is higher than last
seasons STYLES

How to Adjust.

In adjusting the corset now 1t must
not be pulled down on the figure,
but after being clasped on the hose
supporters should be attached at the
front and sides and the laces gently
drawn to flt the figure, when the cor
set will assume the best position to
fit.
Three corset strings are better than
two-one at the top, one at the CEN
ter and the third at the bottom.
Their use, enables the wearer of
ready-made eorsets to adjust them
comfortably to her own personal Pc
culiarity of figure H~

Commander of the 5attIeship Detroit
Fixes Neutral Zone For the Pro-
lection of the Lives of Americans
There.

Washington, Jan. with firm
hand the Washington Government
from now on will protect American life
and property in the Island Of San Do
mingo. The following dispatch, re-
ceived at the Navy Department today
from Commander Dillingham;, COM
manding the Detroit. dated at Puerto
Plata, January g. was made public by
order Of the Secretary.
"1n this vicinity anarchy prevails;
business at standstill. Puerta Plata
quiet at present. Jiminez authorities
collecting duties and dues. Jiminez at
Santiago. Revolution not one of prin-
ciple, but between factions. VIII not
allow interruption of commerce. Went

turned to Puerta Plata yesterday af-
ternonn to see Cherokee out of port

Fighting n Scsua, Ierembur 2C. be
tween Morales and lirfinez troops
took place on United Fruit Company's
property. Without notice houses We're
looted, lives of United States citizens
absolutely disregarded, women and
children had to flee for safety, prop
erty destroyed. Have forbidden any
lighting or any armed force OF any
party within certain limits necessary
TO protect lives of United States citi-
zens at Sosua. Commanding officers
In the field near Sosua have been so
instructed.
Left one officer, sixteen marines.

sary. British steamer Pallas here
Have Joined British captain in note to
military commander here holding him
responsible for any disorder and tell
ing him that we would take such
prompt action as we see ht in case Of
disorder"
The statement is authorized that the
conduct of Commander Dillingham;
while following only general instruc-
tons, is entirely indorsed and approved
by the government. and II is believed
that his intelligent handling Of the sit
uation will have a powerful influence
toward the restoration Of order in the
island. IL can be announced that the
Washington Government earnestly
hopes that order viii come out of chaos
In the island and a firm government
established, under which Americans
and other foreigners VIII receive in
the future adequate protection. It is
realized by the administration that
the Dominican problem must be taken
up and disposed of in a way that Will
put stop to what was described by
a European ambassador tonight as "an
insufferable nuisance which the civil
lied world looks to the United States
to clean uD."

THE VOICE OF A coNsTlTuENcY

The Baltimore sun in an editorial
directed to the members Of tho Mary
land Legislature insists at some length
on the necessity Of each member re-
nectlng the sentiments OF his con-
stituents In his vote. 1t says that they
are fresh from their own people and
have come TO Annapolis with full in
formation as 70 the wishes OF those
at home, and these wishes must be abb
solutely obeyed.
This brings up a question which has
never been definitely determined. Is a
member Of a Legislature or of Con-
gress to obey his own Judgment and
conscience or TO simply voice the senti-
ments Of his constituents? Is ne to be-
come merely the machinery to register
the VIII Of a certain number Of peoples
Or is the presumption that his senti-
ments are IN general those OF his peo-
pie, the rest being left to his judgment?
We think the latter is the better theory.
A members constituents are not under
oath, while he is. Then. too. situa-
tions are constantly arising which have
not been passed upon by the people. To
follow tho doctrine laid down by the
Baltimore sun would mean that all
native force would have to be sup
pressed and thai mans own con-
science would become a negative guam
tity the moment he is elected to any
representative position.
We think the true American idea IN
such matters is that man presumably
is elected to ONCE because Of his we'll
known views and for his capacity. He
is bound by his pledges and by his
oath. For the rest his duties extend
far beyond the protection OF his con-
stItueney, embracing his duty to the
whole people to his Judgment and his
conscience.

TIE ENCORE ElENp.

one Of the greatest annoyances that
theatregoers have to endure disappear
ed when the women were persuaded to
remove their hats. That contamination
would never have been realized had It
not become fashionable. We want to
see some reformer start a crusade
against unlimited encores Make 1t IN
shocking bad taste to call a performer
back more than once. and then as a
great exception.
The encore fiend is content with
nothing but exhaustion on the part of
the performer. Is 1t a song? He wants
1879 verses sung. The singer responds
again and again, giving every evil
dence Of desire to be released, but
the flend pounds the floor. claps his
hands and even uses his mouth to
make his demand more inslstent. He
is thoroughly impartial; the singer may
have a cracked voice; tho song both in
words and music may be tho worst
sort Of trash, but us long as another
verse may be dragged out the nend in
sists on having it; and even then he
IS not content for It delights him to
hear a chorus repeated until it has
grown uncomfortable and tho most sen
sifivc in the audience arc ready. tc

AS q result OF this foolishness. light
operas continue til midnight. the act.
ors are worn out and the nerves OF tn,
audience are set jangling. The per.
formance is really given twice; the ori.

The Future of Pennypaoker.

A report that the projects for the high

er will not stop at the Supreme Court Of
Pennsylvania, but aim az the next va

Bench, presents food for some curious re-.
fccHons. The foundation for the rumor
Is little imperceptble. It's outward and

hospita0iy at the White House which

How. then. are We 70 interpret the
address OF Richard oincy at the Nc
Clollan dinnere lie is presumably
very close to AIR Cleveland. having
been his Secretary OF State during his
last term. In matter so important
IL is to be presumed that he knew Mr..
Cleveland's feeling; otherwise we must
regard his remarkable bringing out Of
his former chief as presumption and as
an insult. II puts the Princeton states-
man in an embarrassing position. and
without explanation we are warrant
ed in concluding that he is receptive
candidate and one whose positive de-
malls are made only for temporary ef-
feet. not being intended as final
In a day this has served to revive
all tho bitterness that has existed in
the ranks OF Democracy The old is
sue came TO the front as though it had
never been laid away. and Il must be
evident TO both Mr. Olney ana Mr..
Cleveland that if the success ana re-
habiamont OF the Democratic party
were the objects sought, a great blum
der was made. II has made Mr.
Cleveland's nomination impossible and
Mr. Olney has obliterated himself in a
single night As a boost 10 Democrat

go down in history as a colossal fail
