Alcohol as . Food.


And now q word about alcohol, or
all the substances that enter into the
dietary of man that are used for stimula-
ton, to check waste and promote repair,
none is superior to alcohol. So great is
its reconstructive power that strictly
speaking 1t must be classed as food.
Whenever the powers of life are waning,
be the cause whatever it may, alcohol
ranks first among remedies to check it.
Like opium, it is good if properly used
and baneful If abused. 1t is scarcely
necessary to say much for or against al
sohol. 1t is too well known to all of us
TO need much comment, and l shall con-
line myself to speaking of its use medic
tnally by those who never tasted it be-
fore a physician prescribed it for some
disease.
Alcohol is unquestionably par excel
lence food adjunct in the severe forms
OF fever where nutriment is urgently re-
quired to keep up life. but where the di-
gestive organs have lost their assimila-
tive function.
Here. as long as the actual waste is
compensated for. alcohol does good. Be-
yond that it is worse than useless. I'm
fortunately such restricted dosage does
not satisfy the careless doctor of easy
conscience. He gives it by the oft re-
peated tablespoonfuls without stopping
to discover that the result wished for has
been attained IN the slower, fuller pulse
and stronger heart.
Hundreds and hundreds of men and
women in all walks of society contracted
their tippling habit by regarding as I'M
restricted the advice of their physicians
that wine or stimulants of some kind are
necessary for them to take. The advice
in itself is justiiable, but the lack of re-
striction is culnble. And so these poor,
deluded convalescents go on taking stim-
ulants. which they find not only agreea-
BILE, but desirable, until they become
slaves to drink.-New York Herald.

of from her house, and she went with her
baby in her arms To a neighbours house to
get a bucketfui of water. When she re-
turned to her house she found that during
her absence the side door had been nailed
up aud the front door locked from the In

OF getting it from the Wrights. Besides
they had not hired the house and the fur
niture was not theirs.
Samuels asked him to let the woman
and her child in out of the rain and he
could eject them when the weather was
fine, but Burns refused to do so. Samaels
then telephoned to Captain Douglass and
the captain instructed him to bring the
woman and her child to the City Prison.

ing been drinking. and young man named
Scott said he saw her husband, Walter
Wright, cook, beating her on the stree

CHINESE STABBING AFFRAY

Fatal Thrust.

The remarkable quietness that has pre-
vailed in Chinatown for the past four or

of shootings and stabblngs before the win

Gin Wing Toy is head cook in the Lynd-

raised his jumper and thrust knife into
his side. Both then ran toward China

Toy, as soon as he felt the pain in his
side. ran to a laundry at COZ Post street
kept by some of his friends, and they re-
ported the stabbing to Detectives Cox and
Glennon. The detectives went to the
laundry and found Toy groaning in the
cellar. They called a hack and drove him
to the Receiving Hospital, where his
wound was examined by DR.. Deane. The
doctor found that the knife, from the

California Hall, on Bush street, was in a
blaze of light last evening on the occasion
of the twenty-second annual invitation
ball given under the auspices Of the Aus

of which was suspended the society's en-
sign adorned with flowers.
The walls were tastefully draped with
strings of evergreens, interspersed with
huge bunches Of winter berries. Notices
and embl-ms dear to the heart of Austria's

the evenings festivities with an overture
OF Austrian airs. after which Vi"e-Presi-
dent M. G. Sears mounted thi rostrum
and offered an apology on the pa of the

this occasion, as had always been the Gus
tom in the past. He stated that In view of
the sudden illness of President MillOglay,
who had the matter in hand, 1t was found
impossible to secure the talent which had
been expected.
The grand march was then begun and
the long ne Of terpsichoreans who took
part enclrcled the entire hall. The list of

The Recent Visit of Archbishop
RiOrdan.


Correspondence OF The MORNING CALI.
Santa Clara College was hoDored with a
visit from his Grace Archbishop Rordan
on Monday last. and the entertainment
presented by the students in recognition
of the presence of their distinguished
guest was particularly interesting and at
tractve. In the early part of the evening
the advent Of his Grace. accompanied by
the president and faculty of the college, at
Literary Hall was welcomed by music,
the college string band under the leader
ship of Professor j. Schubert rendering
an veriure with xylophone accompani-
ment that was excellentl, performed, and
the mandolin club especially added to the
attractiyeness OF the musical programme
with their pleasing selections.
The literary exercises were insugurated
with wrll-delivered address presented
by G. j. O'Kane of San Francisco, who in
behalf of his fellow-students extended a
loyal greeting to the reverend Archbishop,
which was succeeded by poem delivered
by j. Burke of Oakland, whose finely
written production delineated the affec-
tionate gratitude that animated the hearts
OF those who had assembled to witness
the advent of his Grace amid the surround
Jugs of their scholastic duties.
The edfying and instructive address
with which the students were favored by
his Grace was descriptive IN its nature,
outlining same incidents of personal OBJ
servation during visit to the Worlds
Fair al Chicago. People from all parts of
the world were at the great White City,
bringing with them The manners and Gus

no change, but are the same now as when
