THE ISSUING OF LIQUOR LICENSES ON
THE OTHER ISLANDS.
HY ID. NJ. CROWLEY.
(Continued.)

In the ninth line of the first
paragraph of Mr.. Crowley's letter
yesterday, the word ''fcrmcnted'
should be read "unfcrmentcd." F"
The world is indebted to Pastcur,
and in n minor degree to Tyndall,
for all that can be claimed rs scicn-
titic teaching, of the causes and
phenomena of fermentation in wine.
We now know that at the time of
the vintage microscopic PARTICLES,
having all the appearance of organ
lied cells, arc seen adhering both to
the outer surface of the grape, and
to the wigs which support the
grape. These particles swept from
the grape into pure water renders it
turbid, rs if from dust. Let them
be brushed into the pure inert juice
of the grape and this parasite
(named torula) will soon be obscrv
ed budding and sprouting, its growth
being accompanied with all the other
signs of active fermentation. Prof.
Tyndall says: in reference then
to the life of the wine vat, what is
the decision of experiment when
carried out by competent men? Let
n quantity of the clear filtered
must of the grape be so boiled as
to destroy such germs rs it may
have contracted from the air or
otherwise. In contact with germless
air the uncontaminated must never
fcrmcnts. " Further, Tyndall !:
"Nor need y0m resort to q d0iled
hguid. The grape is sealed from
contamination fromrwithout." Pas
tcur has extracted from the interior
of the grape its pure juice and
proved that in contact with pure ail
il never acquires the power to fer
mcnt itself, nor to produce fcrmcn'
tation in other liquids"
The ancicnts employed various
methods for preserving wine free
from fermentation; one was by
boiling until considerable portion
of the fluid had cvaporatcd. Ac
cording to Pliny and Virgil, th'
Romans preserved wine in this way
Pliny mentions wine which had beer
preserved and was perfectly sweet
and of the consistency of honey
though two centuries old.
Aristotle states that "the wine o
Arcadia was so thick that it wa
necessary to scrapc it from the ski
bottles in which it was contained
and to dissolve the scrapings il
water"
THE Mishna ca collection o
ancient jewish writings held in th'
highest esteem by the Jcws) state
that the Jews were in the habit o
using boiled wine. ."-Kitto.
Filtration was another method
BY removing the albumen and othe
impurities which promoted the de
composition of the sugar, fermenta
ton was retarded or arrested. AZ
ter repeated iilterings the clear juic
was placed in casks or bottles whic
were carefully sealed and kept in
cool place-buried in the earth, o
submerged in water. Again, by sub
sidence, when, after being kept in
cool place, the ingredients settled t
the bottom and were bottled rs afte
filtration.
BY fumigation. The ancients wer
familiar with the powerful antisepti
properties of sulphur, and by sub
iecting the juice of the grape to ii
fumes preserved it from fermenta
tion, ! conclude by contrasting th

Of Chinese, and the poorer classes
Of MI nalionalitios, being dcnsc|y
packed in and about the business

perhaps, do not seriously feel the
need Of common facilities for get

people, however, find il no light
burden TO maintain carriage accom-
mediation between the city and sub
urbs. TO those having families
the expense Of sending children to
school alone is n tax by no means
slight. People who cannot afford
the expenditure for either or both of
those purposes must fain put up
with quarters within easy reach, on
foot, Of the business portion and the
schools. Land for building sites
that would suit them is beyond
their means of purchase, These
facts prevent many frugal wage
onrncrs from obtaining homes of

would enable that class TO attain

FATAL ACCIDENT AT 20CKFIELD,
WISCONSIN.
A -Four Year old Child Throws a n.y.
Mantle cartridge into thc Stoye-A
Terrible Explosion the Result.

The village of Rockfeld, on the g.
& N railway, about twelve miles
south of West Bend and twenty~six
north of Milwaukee was the scene of
terrible dynamite explosion, which
resulted in the instant death of little
girl and the fatal injury of her mother.
The calamity occurred at the residence
of Jacob Dhein, a quarry man and
lime burner, who resides near the
track. About 1880 o'clock Thursday
morning, while the family were at
breakfast, with the exception of Mr..
Dhein, who had repaired to the "lean-
to" in the rear of the house, little
Daughter, aged about four years, took
dynamite cartridge, which had been
left with others in basket in c0r>
ner of the room, and put it into the
kitchen stove. A terrible explosion
Immediately followed, which

err. The house was almost demolished
by the force Of the explosion and Mrs.
Dhein was covered and pinned to the
floor by the debris. Mr. Dhein made
his exit at the rear of the house and
fastened to the rescue Of his wife and
children. Mrs. Dhein was taken from
the ruins in terribly mangled condi-
ton. Both legs were broken, her left
eve torn out, and her body ruptured
and torn in the region of the bowels
The headless trunk of the unfortunate
little girl was picked up near by, and
it was some time before her head could
be found. 1t was finally discovered
some distance away, and when il was
taken up fragment of the head of q
dog, which was also killed, was found
attaced to it.
Mr.. Dhein was buried under the
wreck OF the wallsand chimneys OF the
house, bat escaped with two fractured
ribs, and seven contusioLs. The other

brea asst at the time, escaped with
then lives but were terribly shocked
Pieces of the kitchen stove were
picked up 20 or 80 rods from the scene
of the explosion. The building is
practically ruined. The roof was
lifted and converted into a basket, the
shingles were scattered about for
acres. The shattered roof settled back
on the twisted and battered sides of
the house, and the wrecked structure
stands in a topping condition, mute
evidence of the awful convulson which
invaded its precincts and converted a
once happy home into one Of monrn>

HIS LAST CIGAR.
How Hon. Chauncey vi. Depew
stopped Smoking a DOzea Years
Ago.
Albany Journal.

Albany Journal
That genial humorist, able lawyer,
adroit politician and eloquent speaker,
the Hon. Chauncey NJ. Depew, was
in Albany recently attending the
meeting of the New York Central
stockholders. Meeting a friend, the
tender of the cigar to Mr.. Depew re-
called an interesting Renaissance,
which we give in Mr.. Depew's words.
Said he:
Il was a confirmed smoker, smok-
ing twenty cigars day up to about
dozen years ago, when gave up the
habit. I now do not use tobacco.
Twelve or thirteen years ago found
myself suffering from Indigestion,
with wakeful fits at night, nervous
ness and inability to submit to much
mental strain. l was in the city of
Albany one day and bought 25 cent

way, and at the corner of State street
took the cigar out of my mouth and
looked at it. | had smoked about an
inch of it. A thought struck me. l
had been reading a German servants
book on the unhealthfulness OF the
use of tobacco. l looked at my cigar
and said: you are responsible for
this mischief" / threw the Partaga
into the gutter, and resolved not to
smoke again. For six months suf-
fered the torments of the damned. l
wanted to smoke, but / resolutely re,
fused. My appetite meanwhile was
growing better, my sleep was grow
ing sounder and I could do more
work. did not smoke up TO two or
three years ago. After had worked
Tor seventeen hours continuously one
day, late at night, I thought I would
try a cigar as soothing influence. l
enjoyed the aroma OF the smoke and
the pleasure of the cigar more than |
can say. The next day smoked four
cigars and the next two l found the
use OF tobacco was affecting my physi-
cal system, and 1 stopped it entirely
and have not commenced again, and
probably never shall.
Mr.. Depew's genial face, his merry
laugh and his vigorous appetite drive
away any suspicion one might enter
tain that he ever was victim of
dyspepsia or its common parent, the
tobacco habit Mr.. DepeW, we be
Leve, is the only American of note,
excepting Gen. Grant, who is known

can appreciate the grit required to
successfully pass through it.

out and made a regular baggage

slammed about with reckless disre
