rHe LANo FoR FAr MoMEN
In the Moor CoGntry Bulk Rather
Than symmetry Is the Mark
OF Beauty.

In England and America the fat
woman has never been considered
very attractive. Admiration has
gone TO Che slender woman, even to
the enc with the waspish waist,
laced in as small as the stomach,
liver and few other superfluOus
organs will allow. But the fat
woman has been passed by and her
more slender, graceful sister has
carried off the laurels for beauty
Of feminine figure.
But over in the land of the MoOrs
things are exactly reversed. There
the fat woman reigns supreme.
The slender woman is passed by
with look of pity, says Medical
Talk.
According TO the Moorish idea
of beauty, a really handsome wom-
an ought to hc so fat that she can
not walk. The fatter she is the
more beautiful she is considered.
II she can attain two or three hun
dred pounds of flesh she is consid.
cred a dainty morsel for the sui
tan, and is the envy of all her sex.
The Moorish shape, if shape it
can be called, approaches the per.
lection of feminine beauty when il
resembles or rather exceeds the
circumference of barrel, or some
other large measure.
What paradise for the fat
woman. There she can eat and
drink and feast TO her hearts con
tent, denying herself nothing. liv-
ing an easy, indolent, luxurious
life, with no horror of accumulJt
ing fat, but rather rejoicing in it.
for every pound of superhuouy. fat
she can gain only adds that 'nuch
to her beauty.
There the ambition of a woman
is to get fat. She spends no time
trying to reduce her wal st meas
ure with harmful corsets. but she
let's it expand and go its own sweet
way. Physical culture she would
regard as an enemy to beauty, and
TO take Turkish baths. and diet
herself, would be considered the
height of folly. She wants to be
beautiful, and TO be beautiful she
must pe fat.
1t seems strange to have things
so much reversed. But il may be
some satisfaction TO the over-cor,
pulent American woman To know
that there is at least one place ON
the globe where the fat woman has
her inning against the slender
woman.

THE SCARCITY OF HEROES.

Gentleman.

In addressing the class of cadets

upon the graduates that they were

many good soldiers. Now that

Two Arrests

Will Green was arrested by Dep

ducing liquor. His son, John, was
arrested at the same time on the
charge Of stealing a horse. Both
men are in jail, awaiting their pre-
liminary hearing which will be
held Saturday. There has been a
number of arrests i'll the same
neighborhood of late. The people
have been troubled by all sorts OF
thievery and we are informed that
there Is talk of a vigilance commit
tee being organized to do business
with people of criminal instincts.

Indians Are Careful
They Carry Allotment Deeds In
Gunny Sacks.

Muskogee, 1. T., Aug. S-The
care with which the Greek Indians
guard their allotment certificates,
patents to lands and other papers
of value, has been the source of
many amusing observations. These
papers are never carried in a coat
pocket, as a white man would pro-
tect them, but are carefully wrap
ped in tissue and PLACED inside some
large receptacle, generally a satch-
ell, but often a gunny sack. Yes
terday three Indians appeared to-
gether at the Indian agency to make
arrangements for the sale of their
lands by the government. Each
carried carefully strapped over a
shoulder a large meal sack, appar-
entity one-third full of something.
, However, when the wrappipgs were
removed only a single deed ap-
feared in each Of the bags.

CAPTURE
OF Port Arthur-City Reported 10

Many Sick.
ST. PETERSBURG ALARMED
Heavy Firing Heard by Inhabi-
tants of Che Foo.

London, Aug. o.-According to
the correspondent of the Morning
Post at Shanghai, it is reported
there that there are 10, 900 sick and
wounded persons at Port Arthur
and that the Russians are negotiat-
ing with the Japanese to send the
hospital ship Mongolia away full of
sick. 1t is reported, the CORE
spondent says, that Lieutenant
General Stoessel in command of
the military forces at Port Arthur,
has committed suicide and that
panic prevails at Port Arthur.
Marquis Oyama, commander-in-
chief Of the Japaneseforces i'll Man
churia, has proceeded north and
expects to attack Lao Yang Au-
gust 20.

been no hostile movements since
July 2s, except exchanges between
the batteries. The Russian battle

Wet fire occasionally which wa:
probably what was heard last
night.
An engineer who is familiar with
Port Arthur, stated that it vii
take the japanese four weeks tc
fortify the captured hills and plant
siege guns which will require
strong foundations in the face Of
the Russian fire.
St. Petersburg, August S.-Th'
city is full of wild rumors tha
Port Arthur has fallen, due from
the reports from Che Foo of an
other assault in which the fortress
was taken by the combined lane
and see forces, though the Japanes'
lost three warships including th'
protected cruisers Chiyoda aDc
| Itsukushima. There is not th'
slightesf confirmation of these ru
mors. 1t is believed that the Jap
anese are still unable TO capture tn,
outer works, much less the fortres
itself.

heavy guns at intervals Of on

UemOCrateS United
Taggart Confident that Indiana
Will Go for Parker

New York, Aug, Every
thing indicates a steady swing to-
ward Judge Parker" Mr. Taggart
said today. In my owa state
the condition 0f the democratic cf.
ganization was never so good. Gold
democrats, silver democrats and all
sorts of democrats are united for
the ticket and I am certain Indiana
viii elect the democratic electors
in November
In addition to the fine condition
of the party we have nominated
the strongest state ticket we have
ever had, and there is no dis
satisfaction anywhere. On the
other hand. there are various dis
cordant elements in the republican
ranks. and President Roosevelt is
unpopular among several classes of
voters. Take, for instance the
Quakers. We have large colony

vote Of at least 10000. They are

because of something he put forth
in his earlier days about the quak-
ers not making good soldiers.
"The campaign is to be pressed
IN every state in the union. am
not taking anything for granted but
am prepared TO force the fight in
every section where there are votes
to be obtained. While New York
aud Indiana have been talked about
a great deal il must not be imagined
that we are not alive TO the neces-
sity of fighting vigorously in Illi-
nois and in Wisconsin aswell as in
Connecticut, New Jersey and other
states. Naturally the fact that
Senator Fairbanks, the republican
candidate for vice president, lives
in my state has attracted great at
tention TO it, while the fact that
the candidates forpresidentare both
from New York state, popular in
terest has been centered upon this
points naturally.

cratic con nittee. Tony mind the
