RUSSIAN NAVAL STRENGTH
AT PORT ARTHUR ON FEB. Sd

PORT ARTHUR, Feb. 3.-Important
naval and military movements have
been effected here in response to the
Japanese war measures.

fIesIip Peresviet. H. 412 tons; the bat

$50 tons: the cruiser Diana, $3.50 tons;
the cruiser Pallada. $3.50 tons; the
cruiser Asl-old, 6.100 tons: the cruiser
Varyag, $500 tons: the torpedo boat
Balkan, $40 tons, and the cruiser Boya-
rim $500 tons. The latter has just
arrived here from Chemulpo, Korea,
with complete japanese charts of the
Korean coast.
In consequence of the narrow and
dangerous entrance at low water 1t
took the warships three days to get out
of the harbor. The accomplishment
of this task is regarded as specially
important owing to the danger of the
ships being injured by an accident in
the channel.

RAISING THE WAIST LINE.
Wide Belts Are Worn Which Lend an
Appearance of Round
ness to It.

There is a slight tendency to raise
the waist line a trille, and it is notice
able more upon the gowns of evening
than upon those that are intended for
the day. Waists that were formerly
drawn down in a very long and very low
point are now finished so as to look al
most round. and blouses that depended
for their style upon the front curve are
now cut off and worn with a wide high
belt, say the Brooklyn Eagle. f.
The new evening belts are q little to
blame for the shortening of the waist,
for they are so very wide and so very
effective. They are made of leather, of
panne, of silk and Of ribbon, and they
are wide and are fastened in the back
there are others.
A debutante were 4 wide white leather
belt the other evening with a white
taffeta dress. The belt vas made of
suede, very thin and cry crushable. 1t
was laid around the waist in many folds
and the front was fastened with three
white leather throngs and a white leath-
err covered bucI.le.
An evening waist of light brown lace
was caught at the belt by a crush girdle
of panne silk. which was pulled down
low IN the front and drawn out broad,
so that it made a very wide ornament
for the waist. This was fastened invis-
IDLY with hoolis and eyes, without a
buckle.
Those who are slender enough ron take
this wide crush belt and CLASP it round
and round the waist with a great buckle,
which comes in front. Tall and slender
girls affect this style, and arc the envy
of their stout sisters, and SO do women
who are short but not too stout. The
stout woman must be careful to keep
her waist line low, but the slender wom-
III can revel in the new high waist line,
which is a revival of the waistline of ten
years ago.

STRENGTHENS MUSCLES.
Jolly and Helpful Exercise That May
Be INDUCED In at
Home.

Here is a bit of work that will strength
EN- the muscles involved. The two OPP
p~onents may be designated as number
one and number two, writes II. Irving
Hancock, in Japanese Athletics" in ST.
Nicholas. Number one should stand in
front of number two with his back to the
latter, taking number two's right arm
over his shoulder and Selling number
two's right wrist in the encircling grasp
of his own right hand. Number two
should make the same kind of clasp
around number ones left wrist with his
own left hand, holding the latter's wrist
at the side. When this position has
been taken, let number one sway slow
ly around to the left. number two maxi
ing just enough resistance as will not
altogether prevent the twisting of both
bodies.
After three exercises in this position,
the two boys should change places and
then again twist in the same fashion to
the left. A breathing spell should now
follow. Then the original number one
may again take position in front of his
adversary, but with the others left arm
drawn over his shoulder with the hand
encircling clasp and with his adver-
sary's right hand encireling his right
wrist at the side. The twist should now
be to the right, and should be firmly
enough resisted by number two as al
most to prevent the success of the twist.
After this numbers n and two may
again change position, but remember
that which ever contestant is in front OF
the other should be allowed gradually
to obtain the victory, though not with
out fair resistance on the part of number
two.
