THE CAUSE OF CRIME AND PAuPERIsM.

The careful investigation OF the Bureau OF
Labor, in Boston, results in the declaration
that eighty-four per cent. OF all crime brought
before its tribunals was the direct or indirect
fruits of alcohol Recently u grand jury
made this ominOus declarations: "We find
that In every case of murder or man.
slaughter, except one, the cause, leading 10
the crime. came direct from the saloon"
All studies of American political economy
force upon us the conclusion that poverty
would scarcely exist, were 1t not for drink,
and yet our relief societies are over-burdened
with demands. our charitable institutions
are crowded.and our tramps number legions
Physicians speak with alarm Of the numer-
GUS alcoholic cases brought up for treat
ment, and OF the yet more numerous cases,
in which disease, whatever the form, Is made
difficult because of the alcoholic poison per-

pEHoRN1NG BY CLIPPERS.

1t is reasonable to believe that to
clip the horns OF a COW with clipper
or cutter made on the principle of a
paiE Of scissors must be far more pain
full to tho animal and less quick to
heal the wound than if the operation
is done by a sharp ine-toothed saw.
BY the clippers the horn is crushed to
some extent, which is unavoidable,
and, while it may be more quickly
done, it is not so easy to heal. The
ine.toothed saw is q quick means of
separating the horn, aud there is prac-
tically no loss of blood, while the
wound soon heals by covering it with
pine tar and mating the hair over it,
or adding some tow to the hair to
make an impervious protection to the
wound. For small calves there is
nothing better or SO good rs caustic
potash, dipped in water and rubbed
on the button of the horn before it
comes through the skin. New York

THE FOE OF BOTH.

Alcohol comes in to spoil the relations be-
tween the employer and the workingman
The drinking workingman, no matter how
skilled and clever In his workmanship when
sober, cannot claim the full wages OF his
skill, because he cannot be- relied on, and
his employer is always on the lookout for a
sober and steady skilled artisan with whom
to oust and replace the drinker. The latter
may work well for many days, but suddenly
one morning he comes into the shop. and in
three minutes has blundered away material
worth weeks wages, or by his arrangement
OF the machinery some luckless comrade Is
cut into pieces. or, r,iffurious instead of maud
lin, he has in n few minutes smashed more
than he can make good in weeks or months
OF labor. And yet, again, is missing for
days when work is pressing and hands can
not be spared. The employer who drinks,
even though he be what Is called moderate
drinker, is thereby tacit patron of all this
unreliability, and in himself illustrates Il =,
often failing to carry out special promises to
his men, thinking he WILL but lacking will
power to do more than think and promise,
and his unreliability further yitiates the re-
lations between employer and man. In every
condition in life alcoholism, whether slowly
or swiftly, surely destroys all certainty but
the certainty Of disaster and downfall for the
individual, for governments for the race.

TIE EFFECTS OF DRUNKENSEss.

Drunkenness deprives man Of Gods pre-
cious gift OF reason. Reason in man Is u
spark Of Gods intelligence. 1t establishes
the bond of union between man rs creature
and God as his Creator Drunkenness de
thrones the reason, and leaves man prey TO
his vilest passions. God made man little
less than the angels; the drunkard makes
himself little less than the brutes
Moreover, this horrid vice extends its
blighting curse over man ih his other relu-
uons. 1t is ruin in prosperity, and despair
in adversely, Cowardice, hypocrisy, theft,
cruelty, murder, contempt OF God, and ha-
tired OF man 30 along with it aud follow after
it. Disease of body and imbecillty Of mind
are notorious results Of drunkenness. Who
ever loves humanity hates drunkenness -

In view Of the dearth of yearling

forecast of the situation: The end of

A Meeting of the Chicago City Council
Ends in q Free-for-AH Fight.
CHICAGO, Jan. 23.-Last nights meet
ing of the city council opened with q
Quotation from the bible and ended in a
free-for-all fight.
The quotation was made by Mayor

was the outcome of a long wrangle
over an order directing the chief
OF police to reduce his forces. Dur
ing the debate the Democrats several
times attempted to adjourn, but, being
in the minority, were unsuccessful.
Finally Alderman Gallagher, q Demo

ing adjourned and the Democrats filed
out Of the door. Alderman Mad

tearing upstairs, but when they reached
the battlefield the Democrats had got
outside of the hall and the council was

THE JAPANESE ADVANCE.


Landing Of Troops Near Che-Foo Reported
by Minister Depoy.
WASHINGTON, Jan. %. 49, Secretary
Gresham has received two cablegrams
from United States Minister DENLY at
Pekin, confirming the reports of the
landing of the Japanese troops near
Chee-Foo. The first states that Teng-
Chang-Fu had been bombarded by three
japanese ships and that the American
missionaries had left ON the Yorktown.
The second. under date of Jan. 81, states
that it is reported that Teng-C hang-F Flu.
so miles north of Che-Foo, had been
bombarded by the Japanese, who had
subsequently effected a landing ON the
Shan-Tung promontory.
This places the japanese in a position
between Pekin ON the west and the

win be made by land and sea upon the
latter place. just as at Port Arthur.
