LESS GRACEFUL THAN MEN
WOMEN HAVE POORER ANA-
 ToMICAL MECHANISM.

Statement Of Dr. E. H. Arnold, of New
 Haven, Before the Convention of
 Physical Educationallsts In New
 Yorls-Skirts Useful in Hiding Ugly
 Angle at Knee.
 New York, April 19.-A defender of the much maligned skirt started the physical education convention at Teachers college to-day. He defended that article of apparel--but for req son obviously more plain to the women than the men.
 The speaker was Dr. F. H. Arnold, director of the New Haven Normal School of Gymnastics. and this is what he said:
 Women are far less graceful than men, and have a poorer anatomical mechanism, so that their skirts are useful to hide the ugliness of the angie at the female knee. Dancing Is very much more valuable scientifically for women than for men, as strengthening the weakest parts of their frame. Square dances should be brought in again, as represent3ss V the love play ,'' the only dramatic dance with mean ing understood by people in these pruc- tical days. l approve the dancing of the sexes together. It Is the properly regulated expression of q natural in- stinct. Dr. Arnold's remarks were received with some dubious expressions on the part of the ladies. ,a5sr.s :. He was ,applauded. however, when he declared that the present social eti- quette for women made them trip with mincing steps, and forbade them to run and jump, thereby inpairing the circu- 1 Iation of the blood in the lower limbs. Let them dance gymnastically, he said, and indulge in large leg move rnents, and 1t will be better for them He reiterated that the hopping dance | was the thing. while the social dance with it's glide or walk, was useless hy. gienically. He said good word fol the two step, however. It was so sim. i pie, he said, that it needed no thought and, if inane, was most recreative. Some Of the men use language strenuous, if not biblical, about dan. cing," said Dr. W. G. Anderson, about the introduction of dancing at Yale He was not sure of its success there but gave a number of statistics prov. ing it's widespread use In gymnasiunas throughout the United States. Mike Murphy, the Yale trainer, sends his men to the class as it makes then quicker and surer on their feet, he said

 tween Harbin and VIadiyOstok.

Harbin, April 19.-There was a. deter mined attempt the night of April II to cut the railroad between Harbin and Yladivostok. formidable body of Chin csc bandits making an attack near the station Of Imyanpo, one hundred miles east of Harbin.
