which is Best-Beer or water ?

selected ny the \. w e. It. u.
A man once said to me, " Do you believe
there is more strength in a glass of water
than in a mug of ale z" " Stop Bit"
answered, " that's not a fair comparison.
You pay five cents for your mug of ale--I
get my glass Of water for nothing. Besides,
when | drink my glass of water | am
satisfied with il; but If you drink
glass of ale, directly you must send down
another to keep it company. Suppose now
you get quart and pay twelve cents for It,,
and take the same amount of money and
pay six cents for steak, and two cents for
bread, and two cents for potatoes, and two
cents for apples, and have glass Of fresh
water for nothing. Which is the best!
eat my dinner and am satisfied with it, and
go back to my work and earn more money
You 90 back TO the saloon to get more ale,
to spend your money, and waste your time. 4"
If the beer-drnker will abstain long
CROUCH to get rid Of the effects of his beer,
he will find himself able to do much more
work than when he drinks. One of the
greatest champions of our day, when he is
training for contest, says there is nothing
like cold water and the dumb-bells.
There is no greater mistake than to sup
pose that beer and spirits strengthen man.
They only stir him up and use up his
strength. drove "a miles the other day.
! When | got within a mile or SO of home my
horse tagged. gave him sharp cut with
my whip and he went faster, but / did not
say, "Pve strengthened my borse!" Ii that's
the way to strengthen him, why not let him
live on whip-cordI Alcohol is whip to
him that drinks It., and he Is q great fool
that whips himself.
Some years ago two men took an early
start and walked over to a neighboring town
20 miles away. Having done their business,
they walked about to see the place, and met
a fellow townsman, who proposed to return
with them, and invited them into the beer
shop for a strengthening drink. "No," said
they, 1--WE are teetotalers, and we have had
our lunch" But he could not go without
priming Of ale. At last they
were of, and for while they
all kept even step, till, after some miles
the beer man began to flag, and, at the
halfway house, he must have a bracer.
After three miles more he wanted another,
and this time it was whisky. Finally, at
| fifteen miles, he gave out entirely and
stopped for the night, where he was laid up
| for day or two; while they walked on
home, and the next day were fresh for bust
| ness.
Oh, no, friends; all nature works on
water, and we believe that God meant man
should do the same.
Take the water, friends, and all the good
things that go with it. Gods blessing is In It,

The aaIodels,, Justly Rebuked.


The grand jury of New Castle county is a
body Of respectable citizens Of all shades Of
political opinion, and its utterances, there
fore, even upon those subjects in which poll
tics necessarily find place, can be accepted
as the deliberate Judgment Of men who will
not condone public evil from partisan con-
siderations, nor fail to expUse any abuses
brought to their official notice.
For these reasons the severe structures Of
the Grand Inquest upon the "modep police
force that the city Of Wilmington has en-.
joyed for the past seven months, will sur.
prise a number Of very worthy people who
thought the GAZETTE was to some extent
actuated by partisan malice in
calling attention to the many failures
and shortcomings of Mayor Wales
police. The Grand Jury goes even further
than the GAZETTE, and accuses the officers
of Wilmington of being violators instead oi
preservers of the peace, and of accompany
ing arrests with unnecessary kicks, blows,
oaths and abusive language.
This is a severe arraignment, and while
It does not, of course, affect all the men,
bers of the force, Its applicability to ma
jority of them will not for an instant be
doubted. The Grand Jury's recommenda-
ton TO the Mayor to Immediately dismiss
these disgraceful appointees is wise and
timely, but there is very little hope of Its
being at all respected by that eminent
official, when 1t is considered that he has
overlooked so many offenses In the past, and
even persisted in retaining an officer who
arrested and vilely abused respected citi-
zen whose only offence was to request the
payment of a small bill the policeman had
owed him for several months.
The recent conviction of two policemen
in our county court for illegally arresting
men simply Oh account of their political
opinions, followed so promptly by the severe
arraignment of the others by the Grand Jury,
conclusively proves the necessity Of a radi-
cal change in the composition OF our pres
ent force. Good men are not
scarce in Wilmington, and the
Mayor will be guilty of an objectionable de-
reelection Of duty if he does not promptly
weed out the rufiians and incompetents
and replace them with men who have some
conception of the duties of a peace officer,
and the intelligence and decency to dis
charge them in an acceptable manner.

A valuable work.

"Hill's Manual of Social and Business
Forms" is one OF the most valuable and in
teresting works ever issued 1t treats OF
every form Of social and business life, and is
crowded with just such information as is
necessary and important In every day
affairs. The lawyer, the manufacturer, the
mechanic, the merchant, the society man
and the ladies can all find in Its well-filled
pages something of interest and value, while
as an instructor OF youth It is worthy a
prominent position in the list of text books
for our public schools. Mr.. John Ramo,
No. 606 West Eighth street, has the agency
for Delaware for this important work, and
will take orders from all who wish to pos
sess It.

WHILE THE reform sentiment of the Phil
adelphia City Councils was not strong
enough to induce the Republican members
to make Col. Ludlow Chief Engineer of the
Water Department, it swept away all the
ringster applicants and resulted in the eau
Gus selection of Frederick Graf, who held
the position for a number of years, and who
will be remembered as one of the consulting
engineers in the construction of the new res
eIvoir in this city. Mr., Graf, however, re-
fuses to accept, and Council may be com
PEELED to take Col. Ludlow, after ALL

But LITTLE more than three weeks re-
main of the present session of Congress, and
If legislation is not fastened the fourth Of
March viii find the important appropriation
bills not yet acted upon. Both houses are
still struggling with tariff bills, and
the appropriations, which ought to
have been entirely disposed of by this time
are left to shift for themselves. If they are
neglected an extra session Of the Forty
eighth Congress will have to be called, and
an extra session is what the people of the
country do not particularly banker after.

A BILL introduced by Senator Wallace
has passed the State Senate of Pennsylvania
providing for voluntary trade tribunal for
the settlement of trade disputes. 1t pro-
vides that on the petition of twenty-five
workmen, or five employers, the Court of
Common Pleas shall issue a license for the
establishment, within their respective dis
tricts, of tribunals, for the consideration and
settlement of disputes between employers
and employed in the trades indicated. The
persons TO compose the tribunal are To be
selected by the disputants, and shall consist
Of an equal number of each side, with an
umpire mutually chosen. The umpire shall
only be called to act after disagreement
in the tribunals, and his award shall be
final and conclusive only upon such
matters as are submitted to him in writing.
Upon questions affecting the price of labor
the award shall In no case be binding upon
employers or workmen except IS they may
acquiesce or agree therein after the award
The awards of the umpire on the ques-
tions submitted to him other than the price
Of labor may be made a matter of record
by being submitted to the proper judge,
and, If he approve the same, he shall en-
dorse his approval and direct that 1t be
entered Of record, and the proper court
may, on the motion of anyone interested
enter judgment thereon and issue process
to enforce the same. On the question Of
wages, which is the dominant ISSUE
between employers and workmen, the judg
ment of the tribunal is intended to be and
must necessarily be persuasive only. TIL,
tribunals, however, are expected to accom-
plish good results in affording opportunities
for free and frank discussion of the matterI
in dispute.
