A Concealed Bar.

Mail news from Montreal states that
another novel method of selling liquor
without license will be heard in the
recorders court. For several months
past Sergeants Garthier and Speeding
have been trying to discover how men
got drunk at $50 st. Lawrence street. a
private house kept by Michael Renaud
The place has been raided several times
of late. Each time the officers had to
retire discounted. They found many
men in the place, but never drop OF
liquor, although the house was searched
infinitely. On the night of the Sd inst.
the mystery was solved. The sergeants
mentioned raided the place on the pre-
vious night. Again they were foiled.
AS they sat discussing the matter on
the Sd inst. man came in and gave
them q hint how to outwit Renaud.
The sergeants, with thrAe policemen,
were soon at the door. They were
coolly told to look wherever they
wanted. They did SO. They got upor
the roof, where they found regular
bar with all kinds of liquors. BY tho
aid of small pipes liquor was conducted
fcom the bar, through the walls, into
certain little room, where it was let out
by small concealed TAP. The police
carted the liquids away, but are still
wondering what will be the next dodge
of liquor-sellers to escape from paying
the license fee.-Pall Mall Budget

In prayer there should be absolute
immobility. The position once taken,
whether standing or lneeling, should
be retained to the end. There should
be no shutting of the feet, no
movements of the hands, no rest
less twitching of the fingers, nc
shaking of the head, and, in a
word. no action whatever. The body
should be as thing forsaken. 1t
should not be thrust before the wor-
shipper distracting his attention from
the petitions being offered and disturb
ing the communion between him and
his God. Not the slightest gesticulation
should recall its existence. For the
time being it should be extinct. The
voice, also, should be subdued and low;
firm and distinct, but never harsh or
loud. ,Elocution, generally snare, and
in prayer almost sacrilege, ought to
be avoided. The attention given to
varied meditation, to excessive en-
phasis, to musical intonations, rem
ders difficult the due concentra-
ton of mind on the supreme
Being, whose presence and blessing are
being sought. A merry song at fu-

Sometimes clergymen who are anxious
to discharge with decent propriety all
the functions of their sacred Office GO
to professed teachers of the art of read
ing and speaking for instruction. These
guides who make orators, or claim to dc
SO, but have Eever been able to make
themselves orators, undertake to show
ministerial students how to pray, when,
in many instances, they themselves
are profoundly ignorant of its first
principles. The public petitions which
are fashioned and delivered by the
rules laid down by such men, are
generally stilted in style, and distin
guished more by sound than by sound
sense, and as whole are offensive tc
modesty and spirituality. Thrust
away all cheap artifcialities. The
voice needs only the pathos that springs
from real sympathy with the sins and
sorrows of the world, and only the
music that is born of spirituality, an6
the emphasis that comes from sincerity
and earnestness; qualities these which
no elocutionist can impart. In all o.
these respects however, Charles H

The Worst Thing.

Among the institutions of Detroit is q
club whose fundamental law is the cul-
tivation of bright fellows" and abso-
lutte informality in its proceedings Re.
Gently the subject of adulterated
liquors was up. 1t was discussed from
the hygienic point of view, from the
commercial point of view and from sun
dry other points of view. Many good
things were said, and all the partici.
pants seemed to feel that they had en-
joyed profitable season. A practical
scientist-a member of the club to
whom the tough questions are usually
referred for final disposition-had been
an attentive listener. but had taken no
part in the discussion. At the last one
of the members asked: Brother -,
what in your opinion is the worst thing
in the liquors we commonly jr,nk?''
"Alcohol," was the laconic reply

THE Russian peasant is undoubtedly
incorporate, said Mr.. KEENAN, in a
late interview, but this evil. too, is
due to considerable degree to the
government, and, ! may add, to the
church also. A large proportion of the
governments revenue comes from the
tax on spirits. As there is always a
greater demand for money than can be
supplied, the government has no in
centve to encourage temperance; on
the contrary, it does what it can to en-
courage intemperance, for the more
vodka consumed the greater the rev.
enue. The church likewise does moth
ing to promote sobriety. In fact, it as
sists materially to increase the con-
sumption of spirits. On feast days the
priests encourage the peasants to drink,
and on such an occasion | have seen a
whole village drunk. Is il any wonder
that they are incorporated"

king ALCOHOL IN GERMANY.
The Costly Burden Borne ly the suf"r-
ing People.

Ing spPiNs
in survey of the impern statistics
of the consumption of alcoholic drinks
in Germany, DIR. William Bode .ays
that the production of the raw mater nj
manufactured into wine, beer or spirits
occupies about one-fifteenth of the
cultivated land of the empire. On this
area of farming land enough Eye might
be grown TO supply $500 millions OF
pounds of bread, which would make t6
pounds of bread more a year IN every
one of the 80, 900, 900 of people .nhabit-
ing Germany, or $50 pounds to au aver
age family of five persons, which IS the
entire food needed by the FANNY for
nearly fifty days, or about one-eisrth
more of food than they can enjoy Vt
present. One-fourteenth of all the pr o.
ductive forces of Germany is engaged
in this pernicious industry. The amount
of money spent on drink has been esti-
mated at about S120, $1,000 a year, or
81. 40 to each inhabitant. or S12 to each
average family of five. Prof. Scbmol-
Ter, the economist, says: Among our
working people the conditions OF do
nestle life, of education, of prosperity,
of progress or degradation, all are de-
pendent on the proportion of income
which flows down the fathers throat.
The whole condition of our lower and
middle classes-one may, even without
exaggeration, say the future of the ua-
tion-depends on this question. If it is
true that half our paupers become SO
through drink, it gives us some esti-
mate of the costly burden we tolerate.
No other of our vices bears comparison
with this. Chicago Herald.

DECEPTION IN ALCOHOL.

In my estimation alcohol need occu-

out of the way, where it can hardly
ever be discovered and not often
brought down. | think it could be dis
pensed with altogether. 1t is not
needed as medicine, and certainly un-
necessary as beverage. We some
times use il as matter of convenience,
when dissolved with other medicines,
but in those cases we need to exercise
care that we do not give it in such
doses that we get the effect of the al
cohol instead of the medicine. AS an
outward application it is a very good
astl'ihgent TO the skin, but internally it
is neither a food nor stimulant, but
rather a narcotic. If alcohol were a
stimulant you would never find man
sound asleep on the sidewalk from its
effects. You might give man any
amount of red pepper and it would not
put him to sleep, but alcohol makes
him first stupid and dull and then he
goes to sleep. dead drunk" We might
call alcohol an an@sshetic, for it puts a
person to sleep, just as opium or NOR
phine first produces srupefying effects,
and then sleep.
But" you say, sis not alcohol a
tonic? Does not a man feel stronger
when he has taken drink of it than
he did before?' Yes, he feels stronger
and thinks he is stronger, but when
you test him by making him lift il
will appear that he cannot lift as much
as he could before. He feels warmer
after a drink of alcohol, but his tenn.

night. The plan adopted divides the state
into an East, Southwest and Northwest
district. A line was run from Q point on
RED river between Lamar and Rel river
counties to Matagorda bay, leaving Tyler,
Houston and Galvestonsin the east Of il.
The counties lying along the east border Of
the line are Red River, Delta, Hopkins,

Limestone, Robertson, Brazos, Grimes,
Waller, Austin, Colorado, Wharton, Mata-

Beginning at the junction of Hill, Nc
Lehman and Limestone, a dividing line
runs westward TO Ell Paso county, thence
north to the New Mexican border. The
counties on the south border of this line
are McLennan; Coryell, Lampasas, Mills,
Brown, Coleman, Runnels, Coke, Tom

Austin, San Marcos and San Antonio are
