to Palestine, who have now left Jerusalem
and are returning home. On ST. Georges

strychnine for Drunkards.


DR.. Pombrak, writing in the Meditsinskoe
Obozrenie on alcoholism. describes seven
cases treated by hypodermic injections of
strychnine--a method that seems especially
in favor in Russia. where. however, il must
be remembered that drunkenness presents
as rule forms somewhat different from
those prevalent in this country. DR..
Pombrak found strychnine q very yalu-
able remedy. both IN cases of chronic alco-
holism and in those of dipsomania. rot
merely curing the attacks but abolishing
the desire for drink. Even attacks of de-
lirum tremens were influenced beneficialIy.
The treatment must be carried cut in a
systematic manner, and mnst frequently
be kept up for a very considerable period
AS to the dose, DR.. Pombrak in cases of
moderate severity commenced with one
thirteenth of grain, in more serious ones
with one-ffteenth. He found that while
the treatment was being carried out there
was no necessity to order the patient to alb
stain from the use of spirits. as they always
did so of their own accord.

LIQUOR FOR CLUBS.
RECENT IMPORTANT DECISIONS OF
HIGH COURTS.
Can Any Citizen Retail Spirits With
out Complying with the
License Laws9
Washington Postl

A recent decision of the Supreme
Court OF the United States has estab-
lished as matter OF law that munich
patty has absolute control over the
licensing OF the sale Of intoxicating
drinks within it's bounds; that the Off
GERS invested under tho law with Ii
censing power can az their discretion
grant or refuse license in any particular
case, and that without such license no
liquors can DO legally sold at retail.
Justice Field. who delivered the opinion
OF the court, said: "There il no in
herent right and il is not privilege OF
q citizen Of State or OF the United
States to sell intoxicating liquors by re-
tail. In the prohibition or regulation
of the traffic discretion may be vested
in officers to decide to whom TO grant
and to whom to refuse liquor-licenses. ="
1t being thus clearly settled that no
citizen can retail liquors without full
compliance with the law and the regi-
tons made in accordance with it. the
question naturally arises whether an in
corporation OF citizens, under the desig-
nation OF club, can do which IL strictly
forbidden 10 the individual. The prac-
tice in this and other cities OF the coun-
try has hitherto rested on the assump-
ton that clubs which sell liquors only
10 their own members and exclude the
general public are exempt from the
licensing and other liquor regulations
ordained for the control Of the traffic in
intoxicating drinks
VIOLATION OF THE STATUTE,
But there is reason to believe that the
assumption referred to is not well-found-
ed. In a decision delivered last
week by the Court of Appeals OF the
State Of Maryland it is distinctly affirmed
that 1.-the furnishing of liquor 10y
the club to its members for a price
fixed by regulation and paid by Its
members upon the receipt Of the liquor
constitutes q sale, and is therefore il
violation of the statute" The case wa'
that Of the Easton Social. Literary, anC
Musical Club Of Talbot county, ans
though the law governing the case dit
fers somewhat from that which prevails
in this District yet the principles which
the Court laid down are generally appli
cable.
The decision takes the broad grounC
that ga corporation can no more violate
the law with IMMUNITY than an individual
can. and it proceeds TO dispose of th'
grounds Of defence which the club ha(
relied upon. 1t says:
"None but members, it is true, cal
obtain the liquor, but they can only oh
tain it by paying for it. and the none,
thus paid goes into and constitutes par
OF the funds Of the corporation. Tn
parties are competent TO contract on
with the other, there being no principl
10 forbid member of corporation
from contracting with or becoming
purchaser of property from the corporal
body as legal entity. And, that bein
