There exist to-day arbitral judgments hanging over Latin-America unpaid because the Presidents of those Governments steal the public funds out of which the awards should be paid, and at the same time enjoy the possession of the confiscated property for which the arbitral award was rendered. For the United States to enter into treaty alliance to protect such acts and defend such a system, while insisting upon our right to fortibly collect such debts in European Turkey and Asia, as we have, and do, is equivalent to declaring war against the world, and in behalf of no higher principle than the right to steal An arbitral award is a judgment that is of no value if not followed by execution. The execution of the judgment of a municipal court is by force. The Sheriff enforces it vi et armis, and if resisted can call the posse comitatus, and if that fail can call upon all the military power of the commonwealth. The analogy with arbitrid jwégments is complete. They are valueless if they @um®t be enforced, and enforcement is the right of the Government of the nationals in whose behali they are rendered. The proposition of Argentina was very subtle and crafty, | | but had it been accepted by the United States we would have surrendered the first prerogative of sov- ereignty and would have asked the nations of the world to do the same. BRITISH WAR PROBLEMS. ONFRON P‘F_D with the necessity of provid- ing large sums of money for the relief of the Transvaal and for buying out the Irish land- mands of the Ministry fof“a heavy increase of expen- ditures for both the army and the navy. At the same time the farmers of the kingdom are clamoring for protection, while the streets of the big cities swarm with unemployed laborers demanding work and wages. It is a time of peace in Great Britain, but her war burdens cannot be laid aside. The estimates for the year include expenditures of $172,000,000 for the army and about $180,000,000 for the navy. Such sums would in years gone by have been ‘sufficient to carry on a war with a first-class power. They are now required merely as a preparation, and are more likely to in- crease than diminish in the years to come. Brodrick’s bill providing for establishing six army corps, three for service in distant parts of the em- pire and three to remain at home as a reserve, brings | before the British public a clear view of the dangers | which confront them and also a perception of the cost y Europe in war. for- | that when the executive o:’! It is also | ask | American | tims of spoliation have but one recourse, and that | or sover-| e makers’ Protgctive Association in New York there appears to have come the one conclusion | l—the fabric may be fine and the garment may be stylish, but the corset is the thing that| |counts and teHs and makes the woman. The old-time frecks on exhibition were quaint and ‘,daimy. the new ones were things to be adored, but neither quaintness nor adoration blinded the speakers’| | or the audiences of the convention to the really domi- | nant power of the corset, which, while itself unseen, | gives form and style and grace to both the gman ‘ within and the dress without. It appears, however, that while there is a well nigh | universal recognition of the supreme value of the | corset, very few American women know how to use it. Much instruction on that point was given and | object lessons were placed upon the platiorm so that | the lecturers might not only teach, but show how the corset should be put on, how it should be laced | and what marvels it can achieve in the hands of en- | lightened artists. { The woman who would make the best use of a corset must first learn to stand properly. We are told that most women stand on their heels and con- “First of all,” said the lecturer, “you must stand on the ball of your foot and stiffen your knees. Then you will scatter | vour flesh, fix your chest and put your bosom where | | it belongs.” A reporter who was present and watched | the object lesson given to illustrate that precept) | writes: “It is indeed a fact that following the direc- tions to stand on the ball of the foot, stiffen the | knees and hold up the head the individual thus taught sequently never get a good poise. did not lcok nearly so much like a pouter pigeon as | before.” 4 ; Having assumed the right position, the next step | to put on the corset. These are the directions: | “Clasp first the next to the lowest hook, then the | upper one, then uncldsp the lower and Pl straight down the front. Get the figure firmly mto‘ the corset and fasten the elastics to the stockings. | Cotton elastic is best, and the silk over it should b | | shirred Joose Fasten the two front elastics and,’ then those on either side, and next comes the lacing. | Have two corset lacings four yards long each.

Put one in the | top of the corset and the other at the bottom and | Draw them bring them round to the| of the corset. ! lace up until they meet at the waist line. | as snugly as you please, front and tie the lower edge | where they are held firmly in place.” By that method of working the machine the lec- | turer said she could take a woman weighing 300 pounds and so change her shape that every one would | say, “How small she What a good figure she has!” Her object lesson was given with what is de- scribed as a “plump, little, elderly woman with a fig- | ure that was all hunches.” After the proper placing and lacing of the corset the lecturer challenged criti- | cism, and the reporter says: “It was a fact that the woman had been reduced to lines gs long and straight as those of a young girl.” As for the fat woman her- self, she is quoted as saying: “I am as comfortable as can be. I could eat seven courses and a plate of beans and it wouldn’t hurt me.” | Still one other point the, learned mistresses of the | art of recreating and remodeling woman by the cor- | | set had to impress upon their audiences. It was thus stated: “You must have your corset wide open in the back before you put it on. Unlace it at night; you'll be too lazy to do it in the morning, and then you'll put your corset.on ready laced and spoil your figure for the day. No woman can have a good fig- under | | | [ is! i Tre and look well in her clothes unless she laces her corset each day. Sometimes a woman really needs to take off her corset and replace it twice a day in | order to work @p her figure. Women come to me and say, ‘Oh, I never change my laces. do that, and there they are, with their bodies all grown in Jumps and with wretched figures. It fairly breaks my heart to see such foolishness. Isn't a good figure worth a little trouble?” ‘We are told that at the command to lace every day*and sometimes twice a day there were murmurs in the hall, and one woman asked, “Who is going to Jace up my corsets once a day?” To which the lec- turer replied, “Get a maid or teach your husband.” Thereupon the voice replied, “I'll have you to know that I don't keep servants, and I ain’t married.” Fur- ther information is not vouchsafed. The reporters of the affair state that at the hour they left the hall the lecturer was still smmg on the stage answering questions. At a recent discussion in the Nineteenth Century Club in New York on “Skyscrapers” it was estimated by one of the speakers that within an area of a mile and a quarter wide and a mile and a half long there have been erected in that city upward of ninety gen- uine skyscrapers, adding more than 180 acres to the business area of that section and increasing land values about $33,000,000. —_— It appears to be agreed that Professor Delitzsch of Berlin has proven in his lecture on “Babel und Bible” that the: records of the Hebrews and the Babylonians were virtually the same, but now a hot dispute is raging over the question whether the Hebrews got the data from the Babylonians or the Babylonians from the Hebrews, i R It is announced that there is a crisis in the Bul- garian Cabinet, and that is all we get out of the revolutionary movement that threatened to involve T'll never |, ACCUSED HAWAIIAN OFFI- I CIAL WHO HAS BEEN FOUND NOT GUILTY. | * o ONOLULU, March 9 — B.
