BEER AND BLOOD.
Michael COyne Lays His Son Out
With q Glass.

There was more trouble early yesterday
morning in the household of the notorious
COyne family, at the northeast corner of
Eleventh and Bryant streets. The Coynes
are not strangers to the police, and when
Officers Stanton and Connolly heard the
noise of q struggle, and cries for help, they
lost no time IN running to the COyne abode.
They found James COyne stretched out in
the kitchen and bleeding profusely from an
ugly wound in the scalp. The family had
been having social reunion, and according
to the usual custom it wound up with an
orgie. Beer had flowed freely for several
hours and James had made no less than ten
trips with tho family GROWER" to a grog-
gerry near by, when Michael. his father, dis
played desire to fight. Hot words were
followed by blows, and finally the head of
the family seized a beer-glasS and smashed
ii over his sons head. II was at this stage
of the proceedings that the officers entered.
james was conveyed to the Receiving Hos
pital, where pieces of the broken glass were
picked from his scalp, and gaping wound
stitched up. The head OF the family was
arrested on charge of an assault with a
deadly weapon. Less than two weeks ago
Coyne's eldest son, John, died under pc
culiar circumstances. He was found I'M
conscious in the basement of the house, and
1t was supposed that lie had taken poison
with suicidal intent. After his death the
Coroner made an investigation and found
that alcoholism was the cause of his demise

VERY POOR CoURsINe.

a Sort of Rat Catching Match at Ocean
View Park.
The second coursing event held by the
Golden West Club since its Inauguration
took place yesterday at P. CanoYan's park,
Ocean View.
The weather was simply detestable A
perfect hurricane of bitter cold wind con-
tinued to blow in from the ocean during the
day, driving the spectators to the shelter of
the stand or wherever shelter could be OBJ
tanned and covering the large crowd with
blanket of dust.
The eoursing commenced about IL 80
o'clock. The stakes we're an alleged of
fourteen dogs and sapling one of four
dogs. Most of the hounds in the former
were we'll known TO the coursing CON-
munity, and Of course the old and tried per-
formers were hot fayoriteS in each of the
co urses as they went on. But the old
adage, "Man proposes" etc. was singu-
larry true on this occasion. Yet the dogs
should in no instance be found fault with
the difficulty lay altogether with the hares,
for more miserable exhibition was never
made on any coursing field. Indeed, there
was but one event during the day that
could by any stretch of Imagination be
called course. 1t was nothing more than
rat-catching, and e zen very poor at that.
The judge, Mr. Grace, must have been
frequently puzzled to know what to do I'M
der the circumstances, but, as usual with
him, he succeeded well all through.
l. is difficult to say what happened the
hares for. to judge them by appearance,
they looked ct TO run before the great Full
lerton or even able to cope with q MERGED
jack. 1t is possible that the strong cold
wind affected them or the feeding on the
fresh and suculent green grasses of the
park, but, whatever the cause, they fell
most ingloriously, making a description of
any OF the courses out of the question, as it
the single exception of the course between
Flora Temple and Soldier Boy, which was a
fairly good one. the Soldier leading up to
the hare in good long slip and serving
himself for two or three other points, when

MISCELLANEOUS.
GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY.
People Should Live 100 Years and Enjoy
Life All the While.

"To grow old gracefully" says the wellknown
Dr. Gardner. is not the common lot of ALL With ad-
yaacing years come increased infrmities, but they
are by no means unavoidable and their presence is
due to failure TO keep up to their work the various
organs of the body. The study OF the body by
scientists furnishes unquestionable evidence that
the duration of human life may be prolonged to LOO
years.
So says DR.. Gardner, and yet what more common
than to see prematurely aged withered and broken
down man, or pale. weak and emaciated old lady.
The spirit is broken; all interest gone from Ii fe
and they look forward only to death The saddest
thing of all is that this premature age breaking
down is needless. 1t easily be avoided by lit
tie and assisting nature just little, and it is
upon this point that Dr. Gardner again speaks most
clearly
He says: =" Science, common sense and all expert
ence testify to the benefits be derived from the
use of alcoholic stimulants." 1t should be remem-
bered however, that they be pure, and that OF
all stimulants whiskey Is preferable The word
whiskey Is derived from ancient word meaning
water of life" and 1t is most appropriate name.

Whskey is pure and cannot harm a child. Its
effect is to build the system, the life and
