IN FAVOR OF ALCOHOL.
What Some of the Members of The
Hague Congress Said.

Hague Congress Said.
The Lancet
This congress, which assembled at
The Hague, mustered 346 delegates, Of
whom twenty-five were British. Sir
Dyce Duckwortb, NJ. D., read paper
on physiological Effects of Alco-
hol," in which the moderate use of
alcoholic drinks was recommended.
The same advice, but in a modified
form, was given In paper on a similar
subject by DR.. Schmitz, of Bonn, who
preferred abstinence from alcohol by
healthy persons, but thought that the
use of small doses habituaIly would do
no harm.
In the discussion which followed, Sir
Dyce Duckworth was supported by DR..
StockyiS and DR.. Sneiders. while many
of the delegates expressed opinions at
variance with those advanced by Sir
Dyce Duckworth.

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1893-09-14
A New Danger.

A curious fate has overtaken the
little town of Schneidemuhl, in the
duchy Of Posen. The people Of
Schneidemuhl had town pump
which had supplied them with good
water for many years. During the
CHOLERA epidemic last summer the
water fell under suspicion, which
analysis seem to confirm. 1t was
therefore determined to 60 deeper,
and the pipes Of an artesian we'll
were pnt down. At a depth Of fifty
four meters an underground reservoir
was tapped, and the water, pressed
on by the superincumbents soil, rushed
up with great force. When the
artesian pipe was stopped the water
forced it's way outside the pipes,
bringing up with it quantities Of
sand. Since then, all efforts to stop
the flow have been useless, and as the
water rises the earth sinks. The
obvious inference seems to be that so
long as there was no escape for it the
water formed an incompressible
stratum on which the upper earth
rested in safety. Every hydraulic
press illustrates the enormous force
water will bear and will convey when
no outlet is provided for it; but let
there be- ' ent and it yields to
touch. So with the hidden water
stratum under the Posen town. It
bore up the weight of flfty-four
meters of solid earth so long as there
was no outlet, but the artesian pipe
let it loose, and it rushed out from
it's confinement. the soil it had borne
above it necessarily sinking down.
The danger of artesian wells has
always been theoretically recognized,
but this case is the first in which it
has been practically illustrated.

Cannibals of the Ocean.

Such fierce carnivorous fishes as
exist in the depths Of the ocean are
unknown at the surface. There is a
ablack swallower," which devours
other flnny creatures ten times as
big as itself, literally climbing over
it's victim, first with one jaw and
then with the other. Another
