This is a very interesting presen-
tation and Mr.. Lodge makes the
following deduction:
"All the States IN not very wide
ly varying proportions, produced
statesmen, soldiers, lawyers, pion.
eers and clerymen, and the sea-
board States naval officers. Bet
almost all the literature, art, science,
business, philanthropy and music
almost all the physicians, editors,
inventors, engineers, architects
aud actors were produced by the
Middle and New England States.
Ii shows wide difference between
the two civilizations, that of the
New England and Middle States
on the one side, aud that OF the
Southern States on The other; for
the surest tests of civilization in
any community are the amount ot
ability produced, and the variety
of directions in which that ability
has been displayed"
Then follows some structures rel
alive 10 the influence of slavery
upon the intellectually Of the
Southern people. Mr.. Lodge fig
ures like the proteclionist he is.
His premises are plausible but in
and as a consequence
his deductions are necessarily in
adequate. He seems TO prove
much, but he proves nothing. If
we were 10 take the presidential
office as criterion we would find
that IN the 102 years since the cleo
lion of George Washington the
South held it SO years, more than
one half the time. We might fur
ther find that The South had furn-
ished III out of tie % Presidents.
We might draw from these facts
The conclusions that the intellec-
iual vigor of The South was exact
ly equal 10 that of the North. But
Mr.. Lodge lacks a most important
factor IN his calculations. Having
no means 10 secure it, he ignores
it, viz: The number of people
DOtb III tdCu Cidtc cIuCC tic Dt t-ih-
ming. Ii he could have these fig
ures it would be possible 10 find
the per centages of great men pro-
duced. Inventors naturally arise
in States where the soil affords
scant means of livelihood. Popu-
lalion increases where manufacto-
,ries are established that men may
have employment faster than in
States where the soil invites agri-
culture. Mr.. Lodge makes anoth-
er calculation, showing that more
than 10000 of his II 900 great men
were of English stock. There is
some merit in that calculation, and
the South has maintained the En-
glish blood in higher degree Of
purity than the North. II Mr..
Lodges calculations, taking one
table with another, prove ANYTHING
whatever. II is that the South has
produced more great men IN pro
portion to the number of persons
born in the respective States than
the North, for il inevitably follows
that the English OF Anslo-Saxon
blood dominates. whether in Mas
sachuseiis or Mississippi.

Where the Millions of Creatures in Drink

Should Be Disposed or
sT cannot understand the carelessness of
people," This remark was made by a lead
ing New York chemist who was just making
an analysis fonthe Board of Health.
"Take the subject of drinking water for
instance What sensible man or woman
who ever held a glass of water up to the
light felt that it was pure? Even a near
sighted person can see that il is full of vege-
table and animal matter. In the city, where
water is allowed to accumulate in tanks on
the top of the roofs, naturally the bottom Of
the tank becomes covered with black mud.
In the country, wells are simply DRAWINGS
from the surface water outhouses, often
from barns and stables. Is 1t any wonder it
Is irnpureP Is it any wonder people get sick
from drinking it? Some people boil the
water, and while this may kill the live germs,
it does not remove them nor remove the veg
etable matter which may be in the water
and which is often poisonous. The safest
way for any one to do is to mix little pure
whfskey with the water and thus wholly
counteract all evil effects which may be in
this and science confirms lit. But, only the
purest whiskey should be used and Duffy's
Pure Malt is admitted both by doctors and
scientists to be the purest of all modern
whiskies Besides fortifying the system
against disease, it also tones up, makes the
sluggish blood circulate ana replaces weak
ness by strength" M

Laid Out in building Lots and Opened With
Speeches to'Large Audiences.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
NEW YORK, July 5.-The National
School of Methods for Reforms was opened
Yesterday at Prohibition Park at Port Rich
mond. About 1000 persons visited the
place during the day. The park contains
12O acres. There is big auditorium
and a hotel. The land has been
laid out into 800 building lots. The Nation
al Prohibition Camp Ground Association has
the place in hand. At IL o'clock the audi
torium was dedicated. The Rev. DR.. Charles
F. Deems, President of the National Pro-
hibition Park. presided Bishop Hurst, of
Washington, and Axel Gustayesen, of
Sweden, made addresses. At the suggestion
of Mr.. Gustavesen, cable message of SYM
pathy was sent to the Swedish Prohibition
Convention then in session.
In the afternoon Prot. Samuel Dickie,
Chairman of the National Committee Of the
Prohibition party, spoke in the auditorium,
and in the evening DR.. Deems and Mr..
Gustavesen made addresses. Large au.
diences attended every exercise in the
auditorium. The place was brilliant with
flags and bunting A lot of people are
living at the hotel on the grounds. They
pay from so to 70 cents day. Nearly half
of the building lots have been sold. Quite
number were disposed of to-day. The
buyers are to erect houses nsthem not to
cost less than 81 900.

THE NEW DESERT LAKE.
The Water Is Still Rising Slowly and Is
Getting Fresher.

Getting Fresher.
Los ANGELES, CAL, July 5.-The fol-
lowing dispatch was received last night
from c. w. Durbrow, Superintendent of
the salt works at Salton: "The Indian I
sent out from Volcano Springs has returned.
His statement settles. the question of the
water coming from the New river country.
The water is coming into the sink at Salton
through Carresco creek. 1 made tiagram
of his trip as he told me. His story was
compared with the map, and 1 found him
truthful in every particular. The course of
the water can be traced by land from Fig
Springs. The water empties into Salton
Sink 25 miles south of Salton. The water
is rising slowly, but moving to the west
fast"
There are no new features about Salton
Lake. A dispatch from the railroad agent
says the water has raised one and half
inches in the past "a hours and is much
fresher. Since the source of the water has
been definitely solved as coming from the
Colorado river by way of New river and the
fact that the railroad track is in no danger,
interest has subsided and all that can be
done is to await developments.

While most of the oil was imported in
bulk, the figures given above show the
equivalent in barrels. The production of
Scotland may be taken at 100000 barrels of
oil and spirit combined; and as compare
lively little is exported, the gross consump-
tion last year from all sources was nearly
100000 barrels, or 10O,0OO,00O gallons.
There are few industries which in the space
of 40 years can show progress SO marvel
GUS, or have added more to the material
well-being of the nation.

do with the police appointments. He
did not know the character of these men
at that time.
In response to other questions witness
went over much of the same ground in
relating the details of his interviews with
the Jones brothers in San Francisco.
BRUNER WAS WARNED.
Mr.. Alexander was recalled and asked
If he had said to DR.. Simmons that he
was surprised that MIR. Bruner was
caught, as he had been warned in adj

AT this juncture of the affair it was

1t was finally decided that car-driver
Moran and saloon-keeper Comisky of

impeachment against the Judge in the
Assembly, appeared before the Supreme
Court in bank i'll San Francisco yester-
day, and endeavored to get himself and
his ill-advised client, Vance. released
from the custody Of Sheriff Stanley by
means of habeas corpus.
The entire court was present, and the
case was summarily disposed of Car
penter argued the case in his own behalf
and for his client, Vance, and Sheriff
Stanley was represented by Judge a. l..
Rhodes and Arthur l.. Levinsky, of
Stockton.
The arguments were short. and when
they were concluded the Justices retired.
In a few minutes the Chief Justice re-
turned and told the Sacramento Sheriff
he could return with his prisoners-the
court refused to release them. A formal
decision will be rendered in a few days.
The habeas corpus proceedings consti-
tuted the last prop upon which Carpenter
was leaning. His impeachment charges
against Judge Catlin were roughly
handled by the Assembly,.
Carpenter and Vance will now either
have to pay their fines or remain in Jail.
