INTERMITTENT DRINKING.
One of the Dangerous Forms of the
Liquor Habit.

national Review.
There would be little use in my describ-
ing what believe TO be the cause and the
course of intermittent drin king unless set
forth my experience as to the various
methods in use to check or cure the disease.
1t may be asked. Has not a man will
power, and can he not of Lis own voliti0n
abstain from what he knows to be simply
self-destruetion? My answer, unhappily,
must be that man who has once fairly
slant or intermittent, has scarcely any will
power while the fit is on him. and. as | have
said. each fiji leaves his will feebler and less
able tC withstand the temptation OF seda-
tive OF which he has proved the power and
OF which lie Is too prone TO forget the
danger.
The intermittent drinker, as soon as he
has abstained for few weeks, forgets the
disastrous effects OF his last drink He be-
lieves himself as temperate and discreet a
man as any of his friends who takes his
pint bottle of claret al dinner and seldom
takes more. he does not see why he should
not do likewise. 1t is the hardest thing to
convince the intermittent drunkard, who is
able to abstain for a period. that he can
never by any chance become moderate
drinker. Nevertheless. the principle of his
drinking is distinct from that of a moderate
man. Ii he tries TO return to his two or
three glasses of claret he is absolutely GER
tain to go On to his secret nip" of brandy
or Of whisky, and his 'nipS" will increase
and he will find himself back again in the
old road to ruin. The patient, if he really
wants to be cured, must clearly make up his
mind that it must be total abstinence or
-destruction-gradual. perhaps. but not
the less sure.

HARD ON BONES.
In Intercollegiate Football at
Central Park.
WRESTLING IN THE DUST.
One Player Retires With a Fractured
Hip and Others Leave to Have
Their Noses Patched.
WRESTLING IN THE DUST

Intercollegiate football on hard ground
has great element of danger attached to
1t. and although it may appear pretty to
the spectators it frequently results in serious
damage to the contestants.
intercollegiate football, to say the least,
Is a rough game, and even when played
upon soft ground the contestants fire.
quently retire with broken noses and limbs.
Yesterday there were two games played
at Central Park.
During the contest held In the afternoon
B. Ricketts,, son of General Ricketts,, sus-
tanned fracture of the right hip which 1t
is thought will keep him under cover tor
many days
There were other players who had to
vacate their positions on the field owing to
injuries, which, although not SO serious as
Ricketts,, may be the means of despoiling
their features.
The college game lie entirely different to
Gaelic or association football. In the latter
games the contestants are seldom seen on
all fours, and there is no such thing as
scrimmaging and touchd0wns with dozen
or more men on top of each other strug-
Cling for possession Of the leather. Buck
inc, which is undoubtedly the toughest part
of the intercollegiate game. would not be
tolerated for moment in either the Gaelic
or association games.
When the earth's surface is thoroughly
saturated and softened with heavy rains
intercollegiate football may be played with
out any serious injury resulting to the play
ers. but now, when the ground is as hard as
flint, the game should be considered out OF
season.
In the forenoon OF Yesterday the Oakland
High School team defeated the COgswell
team by q score of 90 to 0. The game was
entirely sided affair.

Human Failures and Their

LIFE AMONG THE PAUPERS.
More of What 1.-The Calf Man Saw
and Heard While an Inmate of
the Almshouse.

/ had been an inmate of the Almshouse
two days before the opportunity came for
me to visit Last Chance.
In the daily round of pauper's lie at
the poorhouse there is dreary monotony
that would madden an active man. yet
hundreds of able bodied paupers perform
no work; do nothing at all TO break mat
awful sameness and make the time pass less
drearily.
Upon one pretext or another they escape
work. Heart disease IS the tavorlte COM
plaint. Rheumatism and lumbago are often
pleaded, and the man who has partly or
nearly lost the use of his right arm is very
frequent
Nor is it for you or me to blame these
shirkers.
They are the men who have lost their grip

senses OF warmth and hunger are left them.
aud often terrible appetite for LIQUOR. but
beyond these they have no feeliDgs-unless
is is one of terror for Last Chance.
Often they fear this more than work, and
will even work TO escape it.
So when the doctor has decided that Pau
per Jones' aiment is fictitious and that be
IL capable Of doing some light work. and
Pauper Jones still persists that he is too
sick to work. then Last Chance is threat
ened.
This usually acts as q strong stimulant
and Pauper Jones goes to work.
That the remedy is not resorted to oftener
by Superintendent Weaver bespeaks TO my
mind a compassion for the mental weak
nesses OF these old men that is born OF the
milk OF human kindness.
But why this terror for Last ChanceP

possible l made the rounds of the establish

ton and the Board of Health and the Su-
pervisors could profitably spend much time
and some money in devising some means OF
separating these different classes Of unfor-
tunates.
2 Why should an intelligent aud perhaps
refined cripple lie housed with an odious
lunatic or a man suffering with loathsome
disease?
1t is wrong.
1t is greater wrong than any other
wrong that has ever existed at the Aids
house.
Ii is possible for any man to become an
inmate of Last Chance. no matter now
wealthy now or how refined his present sur
roundDgs.
A millionaire may lose his fortune in a
day and the next day meet with some h0rrl-
BILE accident that shall render his physical
shell worse than useless.
Such cases have happened and do still
happen. There are men OF culture ana III
tellect in Last Chance today, and the char
acter of their surroundings is 10 them per-
petual torture and living hell
Here is one case:
A man 20 years old. He holds his head
high above his shrunken frame and seems
to realize his great indiguity. 1t is we'll
shaped head. and the face is shaved regu-
larly and the hair is well kept. 1t is
kindly, intelligent face.
He was once The private secretary OF the
elder Vanderbilt and his brother is one OF
the Supreme Justices Of New York. Twelve
years ago he was cashier in one of the best
known banks in this city.
He is relative Of the late Henry Ward
Beecher and a hopeless and irresponsible
dipSOmaniac.
Whisky has made sad inroads upon his
body and mind, yet he talked to me very
intelligently. expressed the greatest con-
triton for his early errors that fixed the
terrible craving upon him, and said he had
no cause to complain OF either the food or
the treatment he received there.
But with tears in his eyes he told ME he

"Geod- morning. sir" to him. and he re-
turned the salutation In CHEEKY accent.
He was gathering eggs. l asked him if |
could help him, and he said could not Tor
he was Just through.
Later In the day I learned that these
chickens are the private property Of TIL
son. He Is allowed but two dozen eggs a
week for his department. His patients In
creased so RAPIDLY that he found he needed
more than this number of eggs, and no more
were to be had from the Almshouse al
lowanees.
So he bought two dozen chickens with his
own money and fixed up some coops for
them back OF the stable. Now his sick
patients have enough eggs to supply their
physical needs If not their appetites.
AS at Last Chance. patients ofall kinds are
housed together at the New House indis-
criminately. A proper classification is I'M
possible, because there is no room.
Another crying need at the Almshouse Is
for more indoor accommodations:
At present there Is only small reading
room in each of the three large buildings
where inmates can congregate OH rainy
days.
These reading rooms Will not acc0mmo-
date half of the inmates when crowded to
their utmost
The result is that the old men have TO
stay out Of doors In all kinds of weather.
for a strict rule If the Almshouse is that no
lOunging in the dormitories or in the Sleep
ing wards is allowed.
This works a hardship In bad weather,
but the rule Is absolutely necessary II the
beds and sleeping apartments are to be kept
clean and neat as they now are.
A general assembly hall Is needed. and
the Board of Health itself recogn Zed this
during their tour of inspection Thursday
morning.
But where Is the money to come from?
AT present this is a problem that can
only be solved by the charity OF individual
subscribers. for there are no funds avail
able for this purpose.
j learned from one of the more intelligent
are trying TO raise the money by private
subscription and that the Archbishop had
promised good sum, the Episcopal Church
had subscribed literally ana one or two
private persons had promised help.
But the fund is far from Its needed pro-
portions.
Four days is not a long time. Even at the
AlmShouse, to make-believe pauper, It
passes quicker at least than four weeks
would.
Yet one sees much in four days If one
keeps bis eyes open. and learns much TX be
wills.
One thing that l learned was that bald
headed men are q rarity at the Almsh house.
Why, / know not, but it Is q fact.
Are men with full crops of hair weaker
than oald-headed men?
Perhaps it is only a coincidence.
Out of the 500 inmates of the Almshouse-

The game was not by any means scIen-
ttc, although some Of the players per-
formed clever tricks. The Oaklands got
the kickoff and started with flying wedge.
Ransome got the leather and kicked 1t. in
stead of running when he had good op-
portunity to cover several yards Of ground.
Ricketts, caught the ball as 1t descended on
the five-yard line and return ed the kick.
The San Franchises now settled down 10
bueking, while their opponents resorted to
kicking as their light rush line could not
hold their heavy opponents In position.
The San FTanclscos were rapidly gaining
ground on the Oaklands by rushing sys-
TEN Of playing, which the lightwei shts from
over the bay seemed powerless to stop.
During the first half, which was shorter
than the usual time of play, neither side
gained point, although the players from
this side kept the ball most CT the time
within dangerous proximity of the Oak
lands goal Benson played very pretty
game and Percy Morse and Lieutenant VIII
cox of the San Francisco team also distin-
guished themselves.
The second half was stnbbornly con-
tested. and the rough scrimmages on the
hard earth proved c0nclusiyely that inter-
collegiate football is by no means a child's
game. The half opened with two new
players on the Oakland side, namely. Ed
wards and Morse, both Of the University OF
California
1t was not many minutes after the kick
off when the San Franciscos scored a touch
down to their credit The advantage wa S
gained by bucking the center. Porter,
Ricketts, and DR.. Wood rushed the bali
right through the center, and their oppo-
nents seemed powerless TO stop the com BIZ
nation charge.
After series OF heavy scrimmages and
butting on the last down just before the
leather was carried over the line the bal
was passed to Ricketts,. who made fine
run aud gained ten yards. when be was
heavily tackled almost within reaching
distance Of the goal posts. Ricketts,
dropped the leather quickly. 1t was then
taken by Porter, who secured n touch
down. The fall accruing from the heavy
tackle laid Ricketts, out PROSTATE in the
field, whence he was taken in q dis
abled condition to his home at the Preside
with the result as previously stated.
DR.. Wilcox made successful goal kick,
thereby giving the San Franchises six
points to their opponents goose egg
When play was resumed Edwards took
the lead around the left end for gain of
twenty yards, but his team was forced to
give II up on three downs. The leather re-
manned on the fifteen-yard line for several
minutes, and both teams struggled hard ia
the endeavor to forge the ball ahead.
Finally Morse. aided by Edvards and Ran
some, scored a fourth down. Ransome
kicked for goal and missed. The score
now stood in favor of the San Franchises
and for the Oaklands. Time was called
soon after this, when the PLAYERS and the
small gathering Of spectators left the field
