When not to Drink.

Moderate drinkers engaged in pursuits
calling for judgment and acumen, and
who use liquors during business hours,
end, with scarcely an exception, as hnan'
cial wrecks, however successful they may
be in withstanding the physical conse'
quences of their indulgence. Thousands
who retain their health and are never
ranked as victims of intemperance, lose
their property, wreck their business and
are thrown into bankruptcy because OF
tippling habits during business hours.
These men are not drunkards, and only
close observers can detect the influence
of strong drink in their department; but
nevertheless liquor gives them false nerve,
makes them reckless, clouds the judg.
ment, and soon involves them in bad
purchases, worse sales, and ruinous con-
tracts. Sooner or later it is shown that
the habit of tippling during business
hours is q forerunner of bankruptcy.
Let every drinker review his business
transaction for series of years and an
swer whether this statement is not true.
Liquor acts on the brain in the same
manner as chloroform or ether, produc-
ing stimulation which affects cool
thought, followed by depression cores
ponding to the amount of the dose.
What man would expect to succeed in
business if he were accustomed to take,
while at work, even very slight whiffs Of
ether, chloroform, or laughing.gas and
keep himself all the time, more or less
under such beclouding influences? Such
man, even if able to preserve his health,
would grow reckless, loquacious, and
soon prove no match for clear headed
rival. Liquor is an indispensable ally
wherever victims are Systematically tieec.
ed, and its effects arc seen also in the
rivalries of legitimate business. The
professional gambler keeps q free bar, but
never drinks himself when at the table;
and, while sober, lear-headed, honora.
BILE merchant, dealer or operator would
not endeavor to ply his rival with liquor,
he would gain great advantages from the
latttcr's selfsought indulgence. Liquor
shows its victims not only in saloons and
gambling dens, but about boards of trade
and stock exchanges and in every line of
business requiring clear, cool head.
Moderete drinkers who attempt 10 do
business with even slightly excited brains
are men who are all the time making
losses and going to the wall.--Chicdgo
Tribune.

been the leader of the orchestra from its

who play under his baton. As the rest of

HIS LEG FOR SECURITY.

A Soldier Who Dismembered Himself fer
Barrel of Potatoes,
Joe Tyson, the famous gatherer of curl
osities, who has charge of the fremans
hospital on Belmont avenue, received the
latest addition to his museum yesterday.
It was mans leg.
s'That leg, said Tyson 10 the TATT1EB.
"has history. Twelve years ago veteran
who had been in the 85th New York Vol
unteers, went into Charley Monyea's pro-
duoe place at the foot of Vesey street, New
York, and wanted about $50 worth of po-
tatoes.
"sSee here, pard. he said to Monyea, I
hain't got the ready money about me nov,
bat I'll have it agin the first of the month
when my pension comes in. Meanwhile l
leave You my leg as security, and my dis
charge papers as we'll"
s.Monyea looked on in astonishment,
while the old veteran sat down and COM
menced unbuckling his left leg.
"'There ! he exclaimed, as he loosened
it from his body and held it up, shat there
leg cost me hundred dollars at the Astor
House. You give me the taters, and keep
this leg as security for your money till the
first Of the month. Then I'll come back
and redeem it T.
Monyea could not refuse. He took the
leg and delivered the potatoes. That was
twelve years ago. The leg has never been
redeemed yet. The old veteran never
called at the store again. Charley Monyea
hadn't no use for it, and knowing me-he
lives right over here on Tyson Lane,
Charley does-he brought it here for my
museum. Tm agoing to write up the his
tory of that leg and paste it on it; and
hang it up as one of the choicest curiosi-

The leg is wooden one, of course, and
took the place of one the veteran left on
one of the battleaelds of the Rebellion.

the Hoboken sewer system. The council,
led by Councilman Stanton endeavored to
have this connection severed, or else to
make Reinecke Bros. pay an assessment
for the use of the sewer. No settlement
was ever made. Barry contends that the
influence Of the chairman, purchased for
that $25, through him, prevented the City
Fathers from pushing the matter.
Fitzsimmons enemies use the knowledge
that he has been shard up for the past
year, TO strengthen Their stories against
him. He lost good position on the Inman
docks in New York, through politics last
Spring Since then he has been without
regular business, but he made little money
cut of an agency which he took for Listens
Beef Extract He is said to have mortgaged
the warrants for his councIlman's salary of
500 to raiss ready money. On the other
hand, we have it on the best authority, that
Fitzsimmons was offered and Indignantly
refused $500 last Spring for his vote dur
ing the councilmanic deadlock. 1t will be
remembered in connection with "boodle
alderman" that Councilman Crane, Fitz-
simmons predecessor, was accused of ac
cepting shares of District Telegraph stock
tor his vote on that company's franchise
two years.
+ It will be noticed that no action has been
taken against Councilman Hartell, whom
Barry denounced as well as Fitzsimmons.
Hartell kept o little livery stable opposite
the City Hall. that does not probably yield
him very enormous income, but the proofs
of his guilt are not such as to challenge
action. There are in fact ma ny circum-
stances that initiate in his Favor. The
alleged receipt of 500 by him was for a
plumbers license. But licenses of this
belong to the water board. Then again,
according to Barry's latest story, the trans
actions occurred before Hartell was elected
an alderman. When Barry had sobered up
a little he modified his story to charge
that HartelI had borrowed money of him
and never paid him back. Hartelrs prompt
arrest of Barry is also in his favor.

Why the Police Board Doesn't Organize
The Board Of Education.
The Police Board will make another eff
fort to organize tomorrow. The tie is due
to the existence of a vacant captainoy on
the force, due to the death of Captain
Glenny. The Republicans in the Police
Board have conceded the place to the De-
mocracy. There was some movement for an
outside Democrat, but the Republican
members insisted that man in the depart
ment be promoted. The Democrats are
understood to have decided upon Sergeant
Nose Newton, His promotion will make a
vacant Sergeant's berth. The Democrats
demanded the right to fill that. The Re-
putlicsns accorded it, on the understand
ing that patrolman should be appointed.
The Democrats accepted on that under
standing The promotion of patrolman
max vacancy among the patrolmen.
The d mocrats insisted on filing that
place, and that is the point yet in contro-
versy between the two sides.
The terms of members Laird, Vanderzee
and Perkins, of the Board of Edu-
cation, expire next week. Messrs
Walker and Sherwood, Republicans,
AMI Record and Edge, Democrats, will
hold over for another year. Mayor Collins
holds that he has no right to fill the yacan-
cies, and will leave them for Mayor Cleve-
land f. fill. The act requires that the Board
shall be as nearly evenly divided between
the tao parties as possible. Mayor Collins
gave the Republicans majority of one
IN the Board. Mayor Cleveland will, by
appointing two Democrats, give the Dem
ocrats majority of one It is said to
have been settled that j. F. w. Mangels
will be appointed in DR.. Laird's place,
and DIR. Mcbride in Mr. PeTklns's place.
The Board of Works has organized. A
lively contest is in progress for the position
of Chief Engineer. The Board is Demo-
cratic, but it has a Republican chief, in the
person of Mr.. Ruggles. Ediow W. Harri-
son, one of the most competent engineers
in the State, and the man who fixed railroad
rates for the State Board of Assessors, and
Democrat, is probably the coming man.
