 Mulberry Bend, New York, is a nice, versatile place to dwell in for people who are fond of snap, sudden surprises, versa tility. A large number of the descend ants of the ancient Romans live there, and someone is killed in Mulberry Bend almost every week. It is neat, clean killing, too. There is a quarrel over something or nothing, a whish and sweep of a stiletto, and someone is down in the street who won't get up again ever of his own accord, and another man with a dripping blade scurries away swiftly and silently. The people in the neighborhood stand idly by as the quarrel goes on, and after one of the disputants has gone down they stand idly by still, Its not their quarrel. They tell no tales afterward. No one knows or tells anything, and, as a rule, no one is ever punished for the mur- ders committed in Mulberry Bend. It was different, however, in respect of an affray there last week, in which banana vender was slain on account of cents worth of fruit. The murderer was caught this time. For a man who likes snap and variety Mulberry Bend would just suit him.
 A few months ago the Mississippi river broke through the levee about mile north of the town of Winthrop, Mo-, and has since been cutting a new channel de- stroying farms and farm houses, and finally reaching the very heart of the town. This once prosperous village of 5000 people is now believed to be doom- ed, and is nearly deserted. Nearly two thirds of the dwellings and business houses have been removed or torn down to spare them from the sweeping torrent. Four railroad tracks stretched originally between Winthrop Junction and the town, and to save their property the companies spent $30,000, but eventually all the tracks had to be torn up to save them The farmers above Winthrop have suffer- ed even more than the citizens, for the farmer has had no means of saving his acres. One by one they have been taken from him by the river, and even if it changes it's channel again and gives him up his land, all the metes and bounds will have been obliterated. Nearly half mile of bank has disappeared since the demolition began.

Alcohol on the Continent.

AccOfulnS LO an arClclo Dy LIT. U. lt. Drysdale, in the Echo (London) there is arising on the continent wave, of medi- cal opinion in favor of total abstinence of healthy persons from alcoholic drinks He quotes from an article by Dr. E. Jordy of Berne, the following items from which to show the current of medical opinion:
 In 1893 one in seventeen deaths which occurred in Switzerland were ascribed to drinking habits, including women and children.
 Dr. Speyer says that one-eighth of the insane in public asylums were sent there from alcoholism.
 In the Zurich lunatic asylum one-fourtf of the cases were ascribed to drink.
 Dr. B@r, a we'll known writer in Ger man prisons, alleges that A per cent. ot the prisoners were incorporate.
 MT. Otto Lang found that 88 per cent of the crimes committed in Zurich were due to drink.
 Professor Strumpell, of Erlangen, says that alcohol has an evil influence in thu causation of most diseases, and is the ruling cause of dyspepsia in adults. The noted professors of physiology Gaule in Berne, Hertzen in Lausanne Bunge in Basic, and Schiff in Geneva, art total abstainers from alcohol.
 MT. Rrassey found that barrow mel who avoided alcohol could do as mucf work in a1 hours as non-abstainers coule do in 10 hours. Swiss contractors fl nt the same true among Italian workmen.
 In the United States senate, on the 1s ult., during the progress of the discussion of the pending revenue bill, Senator Hoal of Massachusetts, replying to 8 speech O Senator Peffer of Kansas, against the Jln due accumulation Of wealth in the hands of the few, said:
 'Mr. President, there is more thar | 8 ,O0O, 900 ,000 a year expended in thil country for the single articles of beer ant | whiskey alone. Adding to that imported liquors; adding to that several hundred million dollars expended for tobacco, ant you have probably an expenditure of fiji teen hundred or two thousand million dollars annually in this country for thos, things, which if not vices are at least self indulgences. l think before you distrih ute the property of the rich man, man fo man, among the people. you want to knoy some way by which you can distinguish between the man who has earned tn, money and laid it up, as these men hav' in theil savings banks, and the other mai who has earned his money and might hay, it if he chose to lay it up, but has prefer red to spend it in whiskey and tobacco. 7 The Pacific Wine and Spirit Reyiev says: "The liquor trade may as wei come to the conclusion, sooner or lAter that great danger is found in wornan'

MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES:

The sinking Of a number of shafts in
the valley OF San MaTcial. SonCrI, Mexico,
has disclosed the fact that the district is
rich in anthracite coal, which has been
practically unknown in Mexico up to this
time. A dispatch from Guaymas states
that mining operations are to be begun at
once.
Mrs. Mary Barrett has loasei to Daniel
T. Hughes and w. W. Watkins q tract Of
land near CaTbOndale known as Sandy's
field, containing about seven acres of coal
The firm announces their intention Ia
erect breaker with a capacity of 200 tons
per day.
A gang Of thirty men are at work near
Maucn Chunk putting in the automatic
block system on the Lehigh Valley rail.
road.
Last week the Reading company bauled
l20, 600 tons Of coal down the main line to
Philadelphia.
Pennsylvania railroad officials say the
report that buslness on their eastern lines
has reached low ebb is exaggerated; that
while business is very dur, there were
weeks in November and Decem ber of last
year when the volume Of traffic was
smaller.
The monthly statement of tho Pennsyl-
vania railroad voluntary relief department
for January, 1924, shows an aggregate dis.
