One Reason for Not Tasting Liquor.

One of the brightest d.sors Of our
day, Mr.. Edward K. Box, Of the La-
dies Home Journal, recently gave one
of his reasons for total abstinence.
He says: "Another thing that ed
me to make up my mind never to touch
liquor was the damage which | SAW
wrought by it upon some of the hnsst
minds with which it was ever my
privilege to come into contact. and l
concluded that what had resulted IN
juriously to others might prove 50 to
me. [ have seen, even in my few
years of professional life, some Of the
smartest literary men dethroned from
splendid positions, owing to nothing
else but their indulgence in wine. !
have known men with salaries OF
thousands Of dollars year come to
beggary from drink.
"Only recently there applied to me
for any position [ could offer him, one
of the most brilliant editorial writers
in the newspaper profession-a man
who two years ago easily commanded
one hundred dollars for single edi-
torial in his special field. That man
become 30 unreliable from drink that
editors are now afraid Of his articles,
and, although he can to-day write as
forcible editorials as at any time du-
ring his life, he sits in cellar in one
Of our cities writing newspaper wrap

that is only one instance Of several !
could recite. do not hold my friend
up as a terrible example. He is but
one Of a type Of men who convinced
me, and may convince others, that a
clear mind and liquor do not go to-
gether.
II know it is said when one brings
up such an instance as this: oh |
we'll, that man drank to excess. One
glass will hurt no one. How do these
people know that it won't? One drop
Of kerosene has been known to throw
into fame an almost hopeless fire, and
one glass Of liquor may fan into fame
a mouldering spark hidden away where
we never thought it existed. The
spark may be there and it may not be;
Why take the risk? Liquor will
never do healthy boy or young man
the least particle Of good it may do
him harm. The man for whom have
absolutely no use in this world is the
man who is continually asking young
man to Just have little; one glass,
you know A man who will Willingly
urge young man who he knows has a
principle against liquor, is man for
whom a halter is too good.
"Then, as I looked around and came
to know more of people and things, 1
found the always unanswerable argu-
ment in favor Of young mans absti-
nence; +; that is, that the most success
full men in America to-day are those
who never lift wine glass to their
lips. Becoming interested in this fact

allv into Il. and Of twenty.eight of the

ally into it,-and Of twenty-eight Of the
leading business men in the country,
whose names l selected at random,
twenty-five never touched drop of
wine Of any sort. I made up my mind
that there was some reason for this.
If liquor brought safe pleasures, why
did these men abstain from it? If, as
some say, it is stimulant to busy
man, why do not these men, directing
the largest business interests in this
country, resort to it? And when [
saw that these were the men whose
opinions in great business matters
were accepted by the leading concerns
of the world, l concluded that their
judgment in the use of liquor would
satisfy ME. If their judgment in
business matters could command the
respect and attention Of the leaders Of
trade on both sides Of the sea, their
decision as to the use of liquor was
not apt to be wrong"

DIVORCE BY FRAUD
THE CHARGE MADE BY THE WIFE
OF A CHICAGO EX-ALDERMAN.
Arnold Tripp, IL Is said. Obtained One
without Her knowledge i'm
N Local Court.

Yesterday in Room .. Superior Court,
the preliminary steps were taken in the
suit Of Annie Trip against Arnold Trip
TO set aside a decree OF divorce granted
the defendant in 1892. Trip is an ex-al-
derman OF Chicago. His wife lives in the
most aristocratic portion of that city.
Trip got his divorce through attorney
Harmon Everett three years ago. Last
spring Mrs. Trip communicated with at
torneys Holstein & Barrett. who filed a
complaint for her, setting up the charge
that her husbands divorce was secured by
fraud and Misrepresentation. She de-
clared that she had no knowledge that
such an action. was contemplated until aft
er the divorce was granted. She also
charged that Trip had not been a resident
of the State for two years prior to the
filing of the papers in the case. Trip de-
MES all OF the charges. He says that he
was a resident of Roby, but did not want
10 bring the suit there because of a diff
ference he had had with the presiding
Judge. He says that. his wife is a Cath
and that she preferred TO confide in the
Catholic priest rather than in her husband.
They agreed TO separate, he says, and di-
vided their property. Judge Harvey. after
the case had begun yesterday. said that
he desired a day in which to investigate
the charges that Trip was not a bona
fde resident of Indiana. He set the case
down for a final hearing Saturday morn

His Attorney Refers to the Affidavit
Nude Inst November.

Harold Taylor, attorney for Receiver Fai-
ley, of the Iron Hall, takes exceptions to
the statement that Mr.. Failey made in an
affidavit. last November, that he thought
the trust would be wound UP in three
months. II appears, he says. that at no
time has. any definite period been named
within which the trust could be closed. The
statement that was made in November re-
ferred to the condition in which the receiver
had his trust, and that in the absence OF
some unexpected and untoward event he
expected TO close the trust within a Few
months. The statement, he says, was made
upon information received from Mr.. Haw-
kins, who had justothen returned from Phil
adelphia, to the effect that the Pennsylvania
receiver would fully account with MIR. tal-
ley and close up the matters between them
within ten days: also. that the Maryland
receiver would Immediately close up the
matters between his receivership and Mr..
Failey. The time for filing claims (Sept. 80,
1890 had also passed.
The Pennsylvania and Maryland receivers
did not account, as a matter of fact, until
within the past month. The time for filing
OF claims was extended by the order of
Judge McMaster until the 10th OF this
month. TIL additional claims filed nave
had to be passed upon. and the work has
been delayed accordingly.
1t is reported that a number OF Iron Hail
ers who are dissatisfied with the distrlbu-
tons made of the fund will bring suit
against Receiver Failey and his bondsmen.
Attorney Mcbride has been approached. by
some of those who want TO go into litiga>
ton. but has not given a final answer He
SAYS the contention is that the dividend de-
clared by Judge Winters while the receiv-
ership was pending in the supreme Court
is illegal. The attorneys for the receiver
say that the claims paid off by Judge Win
tiers while the. case was before the supreme
Court have since been approved.
