club Life ana the Drinking Habit.
Recent experiences in Nor
folk and other Virginia cities TO-
gether with the late decision of
Justice McClung, of Pittsburg,
have called attention to the grow
ing evils of city club-life. With
the increasing anti.saioon agita-
zion, drinking at an open bar
along with the common heard is
becoming somewhat offensive to
the high. toned tippier, hence he
must seek some other source of
securing qualification for a de
PRAYED and debasing appetite.
The club with its sideboard has
supplied the demand affording
the coveted refreshments with
the desired privacy, and thus en-
couraging the drink habit among
the young and those in middle
life who belong TO the higher
social circles,
We are not fully prepared to
indorse the statement of Francis
Murphy that the clubs of our
cities, and their name is legion,
are more dangerous to society
than the saloons and are doing
more than they to fortify the
drink evil; but if it is true as was
recently stated in The column sof
the Pittsburg Dispatch, that one
man in every five belongs to some
club and that club could not be
maintained except by the profits
of their e-ooards, then their
power for evil is apparent.
Doubtless they are more of a
temptation to those in the middle
and higher walks of life than the
ordinary saloon, because of their
social character and the greater
degree Of privacy they afford.
These fashionable liquor shops
have been operating without a
license supposing that their char
tiers gave them exemption from
the law but the opinion does not
accord with that of Judge Nc.
Chung, and in Pennsylvania here.
after chartered clubs desiring to
dispense liquors to their mem
bers must take out a liquor
license or be subjected through
their officers to the penalty of the
law.
But club-life is not a growing
menace to our social system
merely because of It's fostering
the drink evil: it is the enemy OF
the home for another reason. Ii
is destructive of home-life. The
family fireside becomes less and
less attractive to the man OF
many clubs. Home life is in i'm.
minent danger of being clubbed
to death.
The Home Protection army
ought to include the drinking
clubhouse along with the saloon
and wage unceasing warfare on
both. 1t is hopeless, to expect
to reform the drinking habits OF
the lower classes while social
drinking in fashionable circles
receives the sanction of society.

Perhaps you would not think
so. but a very large proportion
of diseases in New York comes
from carelesness about catching
cold, 7 says DR.. Cyrus Edison. 1T
is such a simple thing and so
common that very few people,
unless it is a case of pneumonia,
pay any attention to a cold.
There are great many cases of
catarrh and consumption which
have their origin in this neglect
of the simplest precaution of
every day life. The most sensi-
BILE advice is, when you have one,
get rid of it as quickly as posi-.
BILE. BY all means do not neglect
it, DR.. Edison does not tell you
how to cure a cold. but we will.

A preacher came at a newspa-
per man in this way ,.You
editors dare not tell the truth.
If you did you could not live !;
your newspaper would be a fail
ure. The editor replied ..You
are right; and the minister who
will at all times and under all
circumstances tell the whole
truth about his members, alive
or dead will not occupy his pull
pit more than one Sunday, and
then he will find it necessary to
leave town in hurry. The press
and the pulpit go hand in hand
with whitewash brushes and
pleasant words, magnifying lit
tle virtues into big ones. The
pulpit, the pen and the grave.
stone are the great saint making

minister went away looking very
thoughtful, while the editor
turned to his work and told about
the surprising beauty of the
bride, while. in fact, she was as
homely as a hedge fence. -,Er.

The engineering corps arrived
here the first of the week, having
completed the survey of the G.
G. & S. railroad to Sutton. Since
then they nave been surveying
on both sides of the river. This
has caused much talk as to tie
probable destination of the road.
Many assert that the road will
follow Elk to the headquarters
and then cross over the mountain
and join the Davis road, which is a
part of the Pennsylvania system.
We very much desire to give our
readers all the facts as to this
railroad, but the railroad people
know SO little (for publication)
that we have nothing definite. ex.
cept that the survey on the south
side of Elk has been made TO
Sutton and that they are at work

lion pounds sterling, or five hundred million dollars; quite a sum for sixteen years of reign. Think of blowing off over thirty millions a year! Calculate 1t in canVas-b back ducks, terrapln, cold bottles" and family things! It would seem as if special exception should be made for such a magnificent out-and-outer The English might at least let him come back long enough to revisit the scenes of his most glorious exploits and recount them to choice audience. If proper charge were made for admission to his recitals the whole Egyptian debt would be. wiped out at once! What wouldn't Harper & Bros, for instance, give for the copyright? He is only slxty-four now. So that the whirl-a-glg of Egyptian politics may have time to put him on top agaln. But the report is that he is dying or cancer, Peace to his dying! One thing even the shortest of stays in Alexandra makes evident; that is that the town cordially deteslts the English and sym pathizes warmly with the French. There's a French go and style to the town that is charmingly European. The shop people speak French ana many of them are French. Give them a chance and they will abuse the Eng- fish with the choicest of French shrugs and epithets. The newspapers are plt- ter against the English. And yet 1T you could get down to the very bottom Of the question you would find that the French railing is only superficial and that France is quite as much interested in the Nn erIish opcIlnatiOn as the Eng fish are themselves. This is startling statement; but look at it. Ismail bor- rowed most of his money of the French. He manufactured and sold them Egyp- tian four per cent. bonds at forty cents on the dollar. That's twelve per cent. investment. As result of the English occupation Egyptian fours are now worth 107 If the English were to aban- don the country it would go to pieces in month and the Frenchman's bonds might fall again to forty. So you may conclude now that all the French ados about the English occupation is clap trap, intended to amuse 'la gauche." It Is very late and the boat starts early. So goodbye to Egypt. The student of history, or races and of antiquities will delight in it for scores of years to come. The student of the beautiful will be dis appointed. The conscientious art stu dent will find nothing in it to which he can trace directly back any one of the living art principles of to-day, or of any day In the history of civilization.
 So ring down the curtain on Egypt and ring 1t up 1oyfully on Greece.

The Late Israel Mlnor.

Israel Minor. who died at Brooklyn,
 N. Y, February 9th, 1895, was born in
 Woodbury, Conn, March 17th, 1907. He
 was a lineal descendant of Captain
 John Minor and Elizabeth Booth
 daughter of Richard BoothG all of
 Stratford, Conn, in 165s Captain John
 Minor, son of Thomas and Grace Pal
 mer Minor of New London, was educa- ted at Hartford by the colony-for an Indian interpreter, and then settled in Stratford, where he was town clerk for eleven years. His elegant penmanship adorns the early records of that old township. In the religious disturb ances of the church he joined the Walk CT party and removed with them to Woodbury in 1873. There he became captain, representative and one of the foremost citizens of the colony. Grace Minor his daughter, married Samuel Grant of Windsor Conn, and thus be- came the ancestress of U. s, Grant.
 Lineally descended from Captain John were: Ephraim, his son, Timo- thy, his grandson, and Seth, a great grandson, whose son, Wait, married Susan Judson and became the father of Israel Minor, the subject of this sketch. Israel Minor was always loyal to his worthy ancestors. Early in life he en- gagged in the drug business and became a successful and well-known merchant of New York. With others he founded Broadway Tabernacle and was one of its deacons under the Rev. Dr. Joseph P. Thompson. who was a descendant of John Thompson of Stratford MT. Mi nor was an earnest anti-slavery man: one of the promoters of the under ground railway; and an ardent republi- can. During his later life he lived in with Mrs. Israel Minor, Jr, his daughter-in-law, a sister of Mrs Curtis Thompson of Bridgeport. For years he had been treasurer of the Congregational union and member of the Rev. pr. Merediths church. He frequently visited his old home at Woodbury and kept in touch with his friends and relatives in this state. He died suddenly of heart affection retain Ing to the last in full force his intellec- Eual vigor, moral fibre and positive con victions.
