The Use of st.mulants Bstween Meals

Although all persons who indulge in
alcoholic stimulants well within the mar
gin of actual drunkenness speak Of them
selves as moderate drinkers" there are
two special classes Of them which bear no
resemblance 10 each other, except in the
one solitary circumstance that they never
at any time take sufficient to intoxicate
themselves. The one class is that which
only partakes of stimulants while eating;
the other indulges in them between meal
times. To the latter habit is applied in
this country the title Of "nippiDg," while
in the East it is spoken of as pegging."
And this is the most pernicious Of all forms
of drinking, from the fact that stimulants
taken without at the same time partaking
Of food, though only imbibed in small
quantities at time, have most deleterious
effects on the internal organs. A man who
habitually INDUCES in a single glass of
sherry IL the forenoon, brandy-and d-soda
in the afternoon, and glass Of whisky
and-water in the course OF the evening.
does far more injury to his constitution
than one who partakes of larger quantity
of alcoholic stimulants at meal lines

member Bill Sheppard, who, in the early
fiftes, was recognized as being pretty fleet
on foot for fifty yards. Old timers of about
thirty years ago will also recoIlect the con-
test between Bill Sheppard and Soda Bill,
IN which the latter gave the former three
feet the start and was beaten by Sheppard.
This was really sporting contest between
Coloma and Placerville. The Coloma bows
lost considerable on the race, and were yerv
bitter on Soda Bill, who left town immedi-
ately after event.
The original Chapman family' were
always great favorites in Hapgtown in
early days, as were also the late Ned Barry
ana David G. Anderson, comedians. Dave
was very fond OF practical joking. On one
occasion he deliberately walked into the
large room OF the Union Sporting House
when 1t was crammed with people, and up
TO the large sheet-iron box-stove which
stood IN about the center of the room. He
had with him q powder-horn, from which
he was pouring blaci, sand into a miners
pan. Coolly opening the door of the stove
he suddenly exclaimed in q loud voice

contents OF the pan into the blazing FIRE.

In a spirit of reckless responsibility
the Sun originally stated, with the pur-
pose of emphasizing Mr.. Stolrs alleged
extravaganza, that both Patterson cases
would cost the county $28, 900. When it
came down to a closer examination of the
actual figures it footed up $40, $40. go as
the total cost of the trials. The following
day on another reconsideration it made
some indefinite ~allusion to the discovery
of another item of 1920 (what it was for
1t neglected to state and the accounts of
five witnesses which it claimed had not
appeared in the original list, bringing it
to the conclusion, to quote its own Ian
guage, that the total charges upon Pat.
terson cannot be much less than $12, OOO."
Accepting as correct every item ad-
vanced by the Sun except those which
have herein been actually proven incor-
rect by afhdavits of well known people,
the result is as follows:
