Adulteration Of Liauors.

DR.. Willard Parker used to say of in
toxicating liquors that whatever they con-
tanned, the alcoholic poison was the worst
thing in them. In the light of Paris
correspondence in the Medical Record, Of
this city, it would appear that there is an
ominous mixture Of poisons, with disgust
ing if not dangerous compounds, in the
liquor adulteration carried on in the
French capital The writer says:
"Absinthe, the favorite intoxicant of the
French, is almost always manufactured
with alcohols of industry, i'll rectifed
rendered green by the addition Of sulphate
Of "copper" and saturated with resin, SO as
to give it the beautiful greenish- white
preeipitate produced by pouring water on
it, and which drinkers so much admire.
'Vermouth,' another favorite liquor, is
adulterated with hydrochloride or sulphu-
ric acid in order to give it a pungent taste.
'Kirsch' is extracted from the leaves Of
the cherry laurel, and contains as much
as twenty-five centigrams of prussic acid
per litre, instead of five or six centigrams
Rum is manufactured always with alcohol
distilled from beet-root, to which is added
ether and formic acid. The bouquets Of
brandies are manufactured by the action
of sulphuric acid on castor oil. The col
oring matters employed are extracted from
logwood the elder, sorrel, fuchsine and
coal Such is the trash which is daily
consumed by the Parisians.
The best thing to do with such liquors
is obviously to let them severely alone

A Moral Earthquake Is Coming.

am tired of protestations of friendship
for our issue by men who vote against it
for fear the Republican party will again
be placed in the Offices, and we shall have
a carpet bag Government" For one 1
should greatly prefer Republican admin
istration with whisky prohibited, to whis-
ky subsidized Democratic beer guzzling
administration.
There is great hue and cry against our
preachers saying anything publicly for the
Prohibition party. Men forget the part
the preachers North and South took in the
late civil war and in the Revolutionary
war, when the homes of American people
and their liberty were threatened. 1t was
considered all right then for them to lead
in the war for the defense of principle. So
it will be in this war waging against the sa-
loon.
God bless the efforts of the Voice in con-
verting the preachers of America to the
great cause of Prohibition. When that is
done there will be ground swell, moral
earthquake, such as American politics never
felt before. 1t is coming; no powers in
earth or hell can prevent it.

HALF A MILLION VOTES.
Marvellous Growth of the Third-Party
Movement i'll the Last -Four Years.


indianapolis Cor Chicago Times]
From 900 to 100000 votes is about
the figure that, in the opinion of veteran
campaigners like Samuel Dickie, of Mich
igan, Chairman of the retiring National
Committee, the Prohibition ticket will
poll i'll November. Fifty six hundred de-
posted their ballots for the cold-water
candidates i'll 1872, and 800 in the CEN
tennial year. The ticket of 1880, headed
by Neal Dow, received 10000 votes in tif-
teen States but in 1854 fifteen times that
number were cast in thirty -four States for
ST. John and Daniels. During the last
two years, however, there have been cleo
lions i'll twenty OF these States in which
State Prohibition tickets have been voted
upon, and the aggregate of these
votes is 2S7, 900. 1t is upon these figures
that the prophets of the party predicate
their opinion of what will be shown next
November.
One of the gentlemen interested in the
party success talked very enthusiastically
over the prospects. He says: with
Clinton B. Fisk as the nominee, the par
ty will gain the votes of thousands of poo
pie who otherwise would not be. attracted
to the ticket. His candidacy will appeal
to the soldier element as we'll as to the
cOlOlcu people VI tuc oOulu, WHO. now
that Lincoln is gone, revere him more than
any other living representative of war
times. He will command the active sup
port of the Universal Peace Union, of the
Friends, of the Indians, and of many
other movements which have found in
him warm and earnest champion. He
will be, in short, a magnetic candidate
who will poll not only the full vote of the
party, but an outside vote the size of
which it is not possible to determine.
The Prohibitionists will have plenty Of
funds with which to run the campaign
From 1872 to 1875, the total expenditures
of the National Committee were in the
neighborhood of $4,000, out of which the
expenses of the campaign of 1884 were
paid. A few months ago, however, it is
sued an appeal for special fund of $780,
900, to be used solely in the coming con-
test. The appeal has been very liberal
ly responded to, and it is expected that by
the end Of June the full amount will have
been contributed.

country. They claim rights and privileges
here which were never granted to them i'll
their native lands, and which are incon
sistent with any wellregulated govern
ment. They care for nothing but to make
money. They array themselves against
the Sabbath because it deprived them of
one days profits. They oppose churches
and church. goers because of the moral
influence they exert.
"Emboldened by their success in other
respects. the saloon element undertook to
control the politics of the county. An
army of nearly three thousand of such
characters was power not to be despised
by politicians. They knew their power,
and exerted it. They bled numerically
all candidates for nomination or election.
They exacted pledges for personal favors,
and not to interfere with their business.
Candidates were afraid of them. Both
political parties were afraid of them. =

Just from the South.

A Hartford gentleman recently re-
turned from Southern trip is exuding
a large amount of picturesque expert
ences. At Richmond, for instance, the
intelligent colored person who otficiated
as coachman and guide, after pointing
out localities made notable by the late
war, finally pointed out an old brick
house, and said:
"D'ye see that ole house with the two
trees in 'front.'"

"Thet, sab, is the place where
Capt John Smith discovered Pocahon-
tas."
els that so? What did he do with
her after he discovered her?"
ooh, he married her."
At Charleston the flags were at half
mast one day for the death of a local
magnate Here another colored guide
was appealed to for information as to
why the flag on the City Hall was in
such a position. He gravely replied
that "it was always so; they couldn't
raise it any higher" He pointed out a
certain monument as the place where
George Washington was buried. This
was not quite satisfactory to the seeker
after knowledge, who, seeing on the
stone shaft bronze tablet, asked Nose
what was on the tablet, and was told,
Keep off de grass"

A Judges Experience.

From thirteen years experience in the
Criminal Court, am thoroughly convinced
there are far more evils resulting from the
use of beer in this country than from
whisky.
The liquor traffic in this county had
become most gigantic evil From my
experience at the Bar and on the Bench,
/ believe it is the cause, directly OF indi-
rectly, of four ffths of all the crime,
poverty, and misery in our midst. The
license fees received by the county do
not equal the expense incurred in the
prosecution of criminals and the support
of the poor.
The traffic has had a most demoraliz-
ing effect i'll every department Of the So
cial fabric. The immoral and lawless
character of many engaged in the business
has, to certain extent, demoralized the
violation Of law in this business has led to
disregard of law in other respects The
frauds and trickery resorted to to escape
punishment for a violation of the liquor
laws led to frauds and trickery in other
matters. Associations and combinations
were formed to protect each other in lille
gal acts, and defend the guilty from just
punishment.
Perjury and subornation of perjury
were the common expedients This prac-
tice has SO often succeeded in the Grim
inal Court that the judicial oath lost it's
sanctions and encouraged the parties to q
holder step. They sought to control the
selection of jurors, and get men in the
jury who had no regard for their oaths.
For this they were too often successful.
Grand juries have ignored bills, and petit
jurors have acquitted where the evidence
of guilt had been positive, clear and palpa-
BILE. AS further illustration of the utter
Generalization of the lower class of sa-
loon-keepers, it is only necessary to refer
to their examination before the court on
their applications.
"A large majority of those in the liquor
business were of foreign birth; many of
the applicants could scarcely speak En-
glish intelligibly. and some had to have
an interpreter They confessed to utter
ignorance Of the law on the subject. They
were not in sympathy with the institutions
and usages of our country. They had
extrayagant and erroneous ideas Of a free

What a Glass of Wine Did.

It is said that glass Of wine changed
the history of France for quarter Of
century. Louis Philippe, King of France,
had son, the Duke of Orleans, heir to
the throne who never drank beyond GER
tain number of glasses of wine, because
even one more made him intoxicated. The
day he left Paris to join his regiment he
breakfasted with his friends, and forgot
to count the number Of glasses, and he
took one more than usual. AS he entered
his carriage he stumbled, frightened the
horses and causing them to run. The
Duke, with a steady head. might have
leaped from his carriage safely, but in the
attempt his head struck the pavement and
he soon died. The glass of wine over
threw the Orleans rule, contiscated their
property Of e2O,OOO,OOO and sent the
whole family into exile.

Unhappy O-6 Men.

The professional mau, who makes his
living by hard knocks and constant eXer-
lions, is prone to envy the business man
or speculator who can go on making
money almost without work and who can
pile up a fortune which seems enormous
to one who manages to pick out or the
world, by constant endeavOr, snug Nv
ing and perhaps little more under favor
able conditions. But when old age comes
the professional man has an immense adj
vantage over the merchant, particularly
over the merchant who is, from the ma
t11re of things, so common in country
like this-the merchant who was not edu-
Gated in his youth, and whose chase after
the mighty dollar has stunted all the more
refined and studious aspirations ne may
originally have possessed.
For the old merchant, rich as he may
he. there is little satisfaction in the last
wears. He can either struggle On after
dollars which have no longer any signih-
canoe or charm for him, or he can spend
his time moping and lettering uneas1Iy,
miserable in idleness, and not knowing
which way to turn or what to do with the
time of which before he never had any to
spare. OF course, this is not the case with
all rich old men who have made their
money in trade. Some have as convenient
and satisfactory methods or employing
their minds as could be asked for. But
the majority are not SO fortunate. Scat
tered about this town are rich men, OF
men with all the property they have need
for. and more, too, who are quite unhappy
in their idleness. Chicago Herald.

Nervous Effects of Applause.

The effect of applause upon artists is
often quoted as due to their nervous sus-
ceptibility The fact is overlooked that it
is an un1nistakable evidence of approval,
and is as such desired. Artists do not
relish such expressions on the same prin-
ciple that our heather visitor delights in
the tom. tom, or our own civilized small
boy in the GLORIOUS Fourth" racket. 1t
is the direct medium of communication
across the footights. But that artists do
possess nervous susceptibiities of q most
pronounced order is very generally the
case, and is a point in their favor as indi-
eating the temperament and tastes of
genius, even though it does not insure the
possession of it's creative force. A highly
Strung nervous organization may, and
usually does, introduce into the character
of its possessor much unexpressed pathos,
and is, therefore, less comfortable than 8
more stolid nature; but it is also more
prompt and active, and the world owes
much of it's stirring music to the instrU-
ments it holds at concert pitch.-Llian

What DIR. Titus HIunson Coan Says.

In the matter of eating the lecturer said
that the notion accepted by thousands
that we must leave the table hungry is
nonsense and rubbish. An ascetic is just
as bad as a glutton, and both by their
conduct pave the road to disease and dis
ability DR.. Coan didn't think much of
vegetarians. He believed we were born
to eat meat. For consumptives he recon-
mended pure air, milk, butter, starchy
foods, stimulants and food rich in fats.
People with liver complaints must let
sugar, starchy foods and fats alone.
Nervous people should eat fish, meats and
milk. Folks in the professional line and
brain workers must have lots Of meat,
fish, milk and vegetables.
The announcement was made that we
have few gluttons in this country because
nearly everybody is on such dead rush.
Milk, boiled, fresh and skinned, or with
q certain share of lime water and koumyss
were cracked up, and young and old,
nervous and dyspeptic people were told to
drink milk in either of these forms.-New

sunstroke by Electricity.

A highly interesting and suggestive &C
COMMIT of what NAV be called SunstrOke by
electricity was recently printed in The 81.
James Gazette. At the Creuzot foundry
in France an electric furnace is used, IN
which the light equals that OF lOO,OOO
candles, and the heat is such that steel
melts like butter in few seconds. Now
people standing at a distance OF few
Yards feel no heat q thermometer tive
Yards away does not indicate much in

fIuence is at work, and spectator who re-
mains for an hour or two Is SAID TO e&-

those of continued exposure to hot, bright
