RUDINI DONAHOED.
Premier Baekfl Down From
The Ita
ills Fighting Attitude—The Mew
leans A llair Only a Tr
Hour, Mnv 14.~ln the Italian cham
ber of deputies to-day Signor Quintieri,
after acknowledging what he termed the
strict legality of Premier di Rudini's
action in the dispute with the United
States, and the moderate character of
his demands, asked whether, in view of
the verdict of the New Orleans grand
jury, it would not be moro dignified to
renounce the matter and leavo the
sponsibillty for the lynchings on those
tolerating them.
Signor Cavaletto cr.presaed his regret
at the rupture in the relations between
the United States and Italy. He thought
that little should be said about the
affair, as it was a very delicate mattor.
Ho begged Premier di Rudini to use
'cry endeavor to bring about a settle
ment of the dispute, which, he said,
ought not to bo allowed to linger.
Premier di Rudini explained that the
foreign policy generally of the Drei
bund aimed to maintain the European
equilibrium. It was undesirable, he
said, that the foreign poliey of a great
country should be discussed often.
[Cries of "Henri" "Hear!"] Alliances
wore not made or renewed on the cap
rice of the moment.
On the contrary, the premier de
clared, it was essential that a great na
tion should pursue a constant line of
action in order to be able to gather the
fruits of its own policy. Exaggerated
importance ought not to be given to the
New Orleans affair, nor a question
sentially judicial converted into one of
national dignity. The recall of Baron
Fava was a protest against the conduct
of the United States government in de
claring itself irresponsible in the matter.
The question seemed to be entering a
new phase. "Judicial proceedings had
been commenced against the lynchers,"
continued the premior, "but 1 cannot
say to what extent the proceedings
. Nevertheless, 1 am certain that
Europe approves our action. Our
sul at New Orleans has been recalled,
partly because the government wishes
to obtain the fullest information in
gard to the matter, and partly because
we fear that some of the communica
tions which the consul published, or
permitted to be published were inoppor
tune."
Replying to a question relating to the
New' Orleans grand jury and Signor
Corte, the Italian consul at New Orleans
Premier di Rudini added that he had
learned through the newspapers of the
incident regarding the consul. If the
s were true the matter would of it
self suffice to prove the necessity of the
recall of Consul Corte. The discussion
then adjourned.

has been selected for both tho Belmont
open tournament and the Wilmington
event. Philadelphia, of course, would
he ineligible at Wilmington, but, the
Elmwood folks will doubtless be greatly
disappointed at not having any entries
from the city on the Brandywine. Bel
mont selected its date first, however,
and when the Delawareans came to
make their choice they had to decide
between conflicting with the Belmont
Philadelphia district championship,
and naturally determined upon the
former.

Before one of the New York working
girls' clubs Dr. Louise Fisko Brys
recently gave an address upon "Beauty
as a Means of Health." While acknowl
edging the impossibility of any pro
tracted happiness without virtue, and
the maintenance of beauty's fine edge
without goodness, the doctor affirmed
that, systematic efforts to be beautiful
will insure a fair degree of health, and
that happiness is the best safeguard
against vice.
The difference In appearance between
and another, it was stated,
e than anything else un affair of
style—that beauty of beauties so hard
to define and so easy to recognize, which
makes the girl of no-colored hair, fea
tures of indifferent turn, and lines
too perfect, infinitely more attractive
than other maids of faultless curves and
innumerable strong points not cemented
by this magic quality.
Style may be defined, for want of
•thing better to express it, as an at
tractive manner of holding the body, a
firm, graceful way of doing things and
pvlng about. It is the visible sign
of inherent power
is the outcome of long, deep breaths
and the use of many muscles. The
prayer of the New York child, "Lord,
make us very stylish," when viewed
aright, is recognize 1 ns an aspiration
based upon sound scientific princinl
and worthy of universal commendation.
Proper breathing is the first art to
cultivate in the pursuit of beauty. The
lungs have their own muscular power,
and this should be exercised. The chest
st be enlarged by full, deep breath
ing, and not by muscular action fr»
without. Inflate tho lungs upward and
if tho inflation were about
to lift the body off the ground.
Hold the shoulders on a line with the
hips and stand so that tho lips, chin,

feet being turned out at an angle of
sixty degrees. It is wrong to make the
bony structure do most of the work in
keeping the body upright. The muscles

•or the advanced foot, and cultivate a
sy gate, without hard or
unents. It is impossible to
stand or breathe aright if the feet
pinched. When correct posture and
breathing are interfered with the circu
lation is impeded, and deleterious sub
stances in the blood tend to make the
complexion bad. This is one of the
many evils of tight shoes.

fitting shoe the human foot feels like a
duck's foot in the mud. It is held firmly
compressed.
Nothing can exceed llto vulgarity and
hygienic wickedness of a shoe that is
manifestly too tight.
Next to the search for style pure and
simple as a means of health the care of
the complexion und the cultivation of
the right kind of expression are of great
importance. The first is largely a matter
of bathing and the general hygiene of
the skin, while the second—a good ex
pression—is best secured by the constant
preference of higher thoughts
lower ones. This is the essence of in
tellectual living, and is fortunately
within reach of us all.
