INTOXICATED sY DRINKING WATER.
Aew Facts in AicohoEc Reredity--Some
Remarkable Cases.

A prominent military man, who
had drunk moderately during the
war and had abstained from that
time, while attending a dinner with
his old comrades, where most of
them were intoxicated, suddenly
became hilarious, made a foolish
speech, and settled back in his chair
in drunken state, and was finally
taken home quite stupid.
He had not drank any spirits
and had only used coffee and water,
aud yet be had all the symptoms of
the others, only his was intoxica>
ton from contagion-the favoring
soil had been prepared long ago in
the army.
Another case was that of a man
wEo had been an inebriate years
ago. but had reformed, says the
popular Scientific Monthly. He
was recently elected to office and
gave dinner to some friends.
Among them was a physician who
has been greatly interested in thesr
studies. He sent ME a long res
port, the substance OF which was
this:
On the occasion referred to many
of the company became partially
intoxicated, and the host, who
drank nothing but water, became
HILARIOUS and finally stupid with
them. He was put to bed with
every sign of intoxication. but re-
covered, and next morning had
only a confused notion of these
events.
The third case occurred four
years ago. A reformed man, of
twelve years sobriety, went on a
military excursion with drinking
company, and, alth )ugh he drank
nothing but lemonade, became
as much intoxicated as any of the
company.
This event was the subject of
much comment and less to him,
socially and otherwise, although he
protested, and Others confirmed his
statements, that he did not take any
spirits at thus time.-New York
journal.

President Harrison's first message

ument worthy of the head of the
great Republic of the world statesman
like, conservation in the views ex-
pressed on the varied topics of pub
lie interest discussed and sound in
principles,
We commend the text published
elsewhere to the careful and thought
full perusal of our readers, Its study
will be useful lesson on current af-
fairs.
Touching the subject OF foremost
interest to the colored citizens of the
Republic, their status!as citizens, the
Resident is plain and emphatic.
Any one who has read the excellent
biography of the President by Low
Wallace could not doubt his friend
ship for the race and now that he has
in his high position confirmed offic'
ialfy the position always occupied by
him. there can be no longer my reas-
enable doubts. That part of the
message treating on this subject is a
high tribute to the Negro and will
be read with greatful interest by all
lovers of the American idea Of fair
play and equal rights. Read the
whole message
