A New Yorker. distinguished for law
suits and whiskey guzzling. commenced
spree few weeks since which develop.
ed a remarkable capacity for holding
whiskey and holding on to life at the
same time. The reoord says he drunk
for three weeks, never seeing a sober
moment In that time, and it is solemnly
averred that he did not taste q solid
morsel OF foodin the whole seven weeks,
subsisting entirely on liquor. Finally
he became actually orazy from the effects
of the rum. Before any one could
divine his Intentions. he procured two
sarsaparilla bottles full of whiskey. which
he emptied into basin and drank at
almost gulp. This quieted him some.
what, but he repeated lhe same dose in
few minutes after. making four bottles
OF Paterson rot. gut in the course Of a very
short time. In q few hours the effects Of
this liquor in its reaction made him as
wild as if he had the hydrophobia. A
physician was sent for and quietibg
remedies administered. but he was past
recovery and died shortly after.

PuhJic School Matters.

While teachers and pupil, are resting
rusticating and preparing themselves for
the winter campaign. the schoo: superin
tenden: is hard at work trying to save
money. Mr.. Boothby thinks We have too
many schoolhouses. Chicago boasts OF
twice our population. but possesses only
forty five schoolhouses. and we have seven.
ty-tive. Their schools are more consolidated
some OF them having 800. 1000. 1900, and
even 1000 pupils. The schoo. board is forced
to rent thirty-fve buildings.
Mr.. BoOthby wants to reduce the expense
in this line by putting more pupils in a
building, as they do in Chicago. They do
SO in Boston, too. il that fact is at all inter-
esting. a committee of the board has had
this matter under consideration, and proba.
bly, will do something. Then the city pays
too much rent, $1,000. for its high school
building: and it is in bad neigh5orhood.
The city ought to own a proper building.
and save the rent. Mr.. Boothby also thinks
the two girls high schools should be consol-
idated. as well as many of the minor
schools. 1t would be more advantageous to
the pupils. as has been proved in the con-
solidation Of the boys high school. and
would save money. And our excellent dis
trict superintendent is right. and deserves
success in his efforts.
