THE RIGHT WAY TO WALK.
Preservation of Good Figure De- pends to Some Extent on This
 A New Theory.

A friend who leads very active life has theory that the preser. vation of a good figure depends to some extent on the manner of walking, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Many people, she says, as they advance in years allow themselves to walk heavily and without elasticity, so that the whole weight rests on the lower part of the limbs at every step, the only effect of exercise being weariness of the legs and feet. In. stead of this his body should be held erect and poised so as to have a perfect balance; in this way the muscles are braced and strength. ened throughout, the lungs must of necessity be we'll expanded, and it seems quite reasonable to SUD- pose that the tendency to increase of weight may be checked. At all events lighter step and brisker and more enjoyable manner of walking can be kept up, and that in itself is very great gain.

MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.
Men Who Were Born in One Section and Represent Another at
 Washington.

There are few men in congress who are natives of southern states, but who have moved north and represent northern constit- uencies, says the Washington Post. There is but one man who is native of a northern state who have been elected from the south, and in this case he comes from a border state. Very many men born in eastern states are now representing western states. This is very natural, as the tide of immigration has been from east to west, and the west has been peopled by the east.
 It is rare thing, however, to find man in congress from the east who was born in the west. But there are some. Fowler, Of New Jersey, and Greene, of Mas sachusetts, are natives of Illinois. Perkins, of New York, was born in Wisconsin. Hearst, of New York, is a native of California.
 The men who were born in the south and now represent northern constituents are Senator Hawley, of Connecticut, who was born in North Carolina; Senator Cullom, of Illinois, native of Kentucky, a border state, however; Senator Newlands, of Nevada, a native of Mississippi; Speaker Cannon, of Illinois, and Representative Dix on, of Montana, and Shober, of New York, were born in North Carolina; Representative Mar shall of North Dakota, is native of Missouri. West Virginia is not always counted southern state, and the fact that her two senators are Ohio born scarcely makes the exception to the rule that few northern men are sent to congress from the south.

Quite Romantic.

A romantic incident connected with the recent marriage of two popular young people of Bridgton, Me, has just come to light. 1t seems that in the very beginning of their courtship some six or seven years ago, during one of the young mans visits to the home of the young lady who finally be- came his wife, he chanced to take from his pocket $10 gold piece which the young lady got into her possession. He made a brief at. tempt to regain it, but gave it up and in joking way said; "Keep it to pay the minister with"
 The years went by and the gold en eagle was entirely forgotten by the young man. On the day when the marriage ceremony was to take place, which was the opening of the present season, the bride-to- be produced the identical gold piece and the minister received it for his fee.-Kennebec Journal.

There is a big difference be- tween the cost of making a first class sewing machine, embodying the best materials and workman ship, and one which is made in the cheapest manner. The buyer of the cheap machine soon pays the difference of price in the constant cost for repairs, to say nothing of it's annoying inefficiency.

ocation.afor the enterprise.

Daniel Sully, who ought to be an authority on cotton from his varied experiences with the sta pie, says that he has quit the pit forever. In his opinion the South can never raise over Il, 800, ,0O0 bales, and as cotton isssan exotic anywhere but in the SUnited States, the South is face to face with the momentous problem of a constantly increasing ssdemand on a practically fixed supply. It is a picture of future prosperity that the dethroned cotton king pictures for Dixie land.

Newport should have a base ball team this summer and enter some Arkansas league. Let some enthusiast on this sport take up the matter of the organization of a local stock company. Searcy, Cotton Plant, Augusta and other towns will soon be arranging a league and Newport should be prepared to get into the band wagon.

One of the best ways of pro- noting public spirit and getting a people together is through the enthusiasm some athletic exhibi- tion or manly sport such as base ball never fails to arouse.
Newport daily independent., 1904-05-16

The location of the handle fac tory here now rests with the owners. Newport has guaran- teed the bonus asked and did it readily. The capital behind an enterprise is usually desirous of the interest and moral support of a people as we'll as the finan- cial backing, and the speedy manner in which the proffered bonus was raised should be con- vincing proof to the Veedersburg firm that our people will do their partSin makinggNewport a good location.for the enterprise.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Jan. 20.-The cotton mar

023 points. in response to strong ca
bles, continued light receipts 1nd fur
Their talk of the strong spot situation
i'm the South The cables which at
the time of the local opening We're
about 10 points over expectations We're
attributed to buying in Liverpool by
parties who, it was said, were protect
ing their requirements in the open
market as a result of the defaulted
contracts with shippers.
This had a bullish effect on local
sentiment so that while outside de-
mand was evidently slack and the
market met with considerable liquida-
tion it ruled generally firm until about
the end of the first hour when March
was selling at 144Sc; May at 14.55c,
and July at l4.62c.
A period of liquidation followed that
forced March down to 14.29c; May to
14.40c and July to 1449c, this being a
decline from the best of between 10
and 10 points Later however the
appearance in the ring of local bull
who began bidding for 5000 and 10000
bale lots of May and July rallied the
market sharply to about the previous
high level. This demand apparently
satisfied, the market again sagged off
and while finally steady, was only 8
to 10 points higher on the active posi-
tions, while the new crop months
were points lower. Sales were esti-
mated a. SOC, 900 bales.

were cheerful this morning as to the
Liverpool market In regard to the
political situation few believe it of
much consequence in it's bearings on
cotton and expect nothing more Sc
rious than a possible check to conf
dent buying, even in the event of war,
and then a rapid return of confidence
and a resumption of very aggressive
bull support.
AS the days go by sellers refrain
from interposing any objection to the
upward march of values. Predictions
of a big collapse have proven simply
harmless outbursts in the past that
they will simply fall fiat in the future.
The true situation is being recOg-
nized day after day, that is the crop
will not suffice for the worlds needs.
First prices were IA to 26 points high
err with business we'll distributed.
Shorts We're nervous. Sellers in the
South again defaulted in the delivery
of their contracts in Liverpool to a
large amount and this scared Liver
pool traders. New York shorts were
anxious buyers and Is cents all along
the line was regarded as nothing more
than a matter of time. Gables closed
barely steady at to 8 advance. Man

N. O. COTTON MARKET.

New Orleans, Jan. 20.-In spot cot

tinues, but offerings are not so free,
the heavy buying of the past few days
having cleared off the sample tables to
a large extent. Sales, $3.50 bales, in

delivered on contracts, 1900. Quota
tions. hc higher.
Futures opened steady and prices
were l3 to 16 points higher. The bet
ter opening was caused by surprising
ly good reports from Liverpool and
Manchester In Liverpool, futures
showed an advance of 10 points and
spots were up Is points, while the spot
business was about the heaviest of the
season, sales amounting to 5000 bales.
Reports from Manchester were the
strongest feature of the day and they
said that the cloth and yarn trade had
better tone all around. Late in the
morning March was 20 points higher
than the close of yesterday at 14.46c,
May was II points higher at 14.S2c and
July IL points higher at 1910.
Heavy liquidation and some short
selling caused a recession that brought
March down to 1444c. May to 14.7Sc
and July to 15.O5c. The highest levels
quoted above were the highest at
which cotton has been traded in for
thirty-tive years. In the trading of
the afternoon there were numerous
fluctuations. The market closed quiet
