:" Strong Drink IS R0ging."

A statement lately issued by the
Patriotic League would seem sufici-
ent to confer upon Belgium the IN
enviable distinction of being the most
Incorporate nation in the world. The
number of public-houses in that coun-
try has grown in thirty years from
$4,000 to 10000. The number of
suicides has increased during a SINH
lar period SO per cent. the number
of the insane 104 per cent. Of con
victs 1876 per cent. Of the workmen
who die III the hospitals 50 per cent.
are said to be habitual drunkardS.
Such facts are a startling testimony
10 the ravages strong drink makes
upon society, and illustrate the ne
cesSity for vigorous resistance being
made 10 its power.

An Appalling Statement.

The presiding judge of one of the
Chicago Courts has recently said to
an Inter Ocean interviewer
You may ransack the pigeon-holes
all over the city and COUNT y, and look
ove such annual reports as are made
up, but they will not tell half the
truth. Not only are the saloons of
Chicago responsible for the cost of
the police force, the fifteen justice
courts, the Bridewell, but also for the
criminal courts, the county jail, a
great portion OF Joliet, the long MUIR
der trials, the coroner's office, the
morgue, the poor.house, the reform
school, the m~ad-house. Go anywhere
you please, and you will find almost
Invariably that whiskey is at the root
of the evil. The gambling houses of
the city are the direct outgrowth of
the boon companions OF drink. Of all
the thousands of prostitutes of Chi
cago, the downfall Of almost every
one can be traced to drunkenness on
the part of their parents or husbands,
or drunkenness on their part. Of all
the boys in the Reform School at Pom
tiac, and 10 the various reformatories
about the city, IS per ct. are the chill
dren of parents who died through
drink or became criminal through the
same cause. Look at the ~defalcations
fully SO per cent of them come about
through drink and dissipation. Go
into the divorce courts fully 80 per
cent Of the divorces come about
through drink, or rink and adultery or
both. OF the insane OF demented cases
.idispose ed of in the court here every
Thursday, q moderate estimate is that
30 per cent. are alcoholism, and its
deffect.

upon them unexpectedly and caught
and killed Jumbo and broke one of
Tom Thumbs legs. There was a
side track on the north of the main
track which contained all of Barnum S

was an embankment eight feet high.
When the keeper saw the train COM

danger, refused. He then tried to
get him between the side track and
main line, but only partially succeed
ed, the locomotive striking Jumbo
just as his foreleg had left the track.

crowding him against the cars on the
siding. The great beast was carried
with the engine about one hundred
yards. He WIS so tightly wedged
that when he could be carried no fur

The Silver Dollar.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16--Superin-
tendent Fox, of the Philadelphia
Mint, brings the silver question
squarely before the administration
when he presents to Secretary Man
ming a few pertinent inquiries in re-
gard to the question of coinage OF
the standard silver dollar. Finding
that the regular appropriation for his
mint is being rapidly reduced by the
coinage of silver, he now asks if the
present administration is going to
do as did former ones, and pay the
expense of coming the silver dollars
out of the indefinite appropriation
for the purchase of bullion and caus-
ing the same to be coined monthly
as fast as purchased, or if the Secre
tary OF the Treasury is going to keep
him within the amount appropriated
specifically for coinage. Ii this ad
ministration intends to follow the
others and use the indefinite appro
priation, then there is no need of his
Outstanding the regular appropria
ton, but if otherwise and the manda-
tory provision of the coinage act oi
February %, 1878, is to be observed
he wishes to know it, for in that east
the coinage of the silver dollars car
last but a few months longer ant
then cease. The Philadelphia min
is the chief one for the coinage @
this dollar. and thus the question il

The North American SAYS: 1t is
encoura ying to find that the Cana
dams are waking up to the fact that
the imperfections of the extradition
treaty with the United States have
the effect of burdening them with a
class of refugees whose room is pref
cradle to their company. 1t is no
ticeable, however. that this convic-
ton only dawned upon them when
these border runners fell below the
grade of millionaire bank presidents.
Be that as it may, there is now an
evident disposition to amend the law,
and this will materially simplify the
question when it comes up for con
sideration, as it likely will during
the next session of Congress.

Horrible Discovery.

A horrible discovery was made in
Chinatown, part of San Francisco,
On Thursday. Information was sent
to the city coroner that frightful
stencil was being emitted from Gel
lar on Pacific street. He went, fore
ed his way in, and found the floor
covered with human skulls and bones
partially covered with flesh in the
last stage of green putrefcation.
Among the decayed mass worms
were crawling, while the floor was
wet and Shiny with liquid exuding
from the remains. In an inner room
the coroner found a number of Chi
nese engaged in boiling down the
remains of the other bodies, while
other Chinese were engaged in scrap
ing the boiled bones and packing
them in boxes for shipment to China.
1t is estimated the cellar contained
over three hundred dead bodies,
which have been taken secretly from
various cemeteries throughout the
state. As an instance of Chinese in
genuity it is said that those in charge
of the operations, fearing the stencil
from the boiling pots would be so
great as to attract attention outside,
they had procured two living skunks
so that the odor OF the latter might
overcome the former. The coroner
confscated all the remains.
After all the boxes containing re-
mains of dead Cinnamon had been
re- moved to the morgue the city cor
onei was interview in regard to the
matter and stated that when he ar
