Heredity Of Alcoholism.

A German case that resembles that
of the famous Jukes family has recent
ly been reported by Prof. Pellman, of
Bonn, who has traced the cancers of
700 of the s34 known descendants of
a German woman, drunkard and a
thief, who was born in 1740. OF her
descendants LOG were born out of we'd
lock, POS were professional beggars,
ISL lewd women, 76-including seven
murderers-got into Jail; in rs years
these persons have cost the state more
than $1,2o0,000. Prof. Pellman has
gathered these statistics to prove the
injurious effects of alcohol, but they
seem to show that it does not diminish
fecundity, and that the proportion of
children reaching maturity is far above
the average.

by the street railway company. At the
park Fred B. Snyder, president of
the city council, who was born in the
house, formally presented 1t. Col. j.
Ii. Stevens, who built the house, and
who is still living in this city, made a
few remarks.
The historic house is little frame
structure built by COL Stevens in 1s4s
on his claim" which now includes the
original town of Minneapolis. It was
the first house built on the west side Of
the Mississippi river, and for many
years stood on the banks of the river
right where the Union depot is now To-
Gated. The march of business pros
perity compelled it TO "move on" and
it was moved from time to time, and
for awhile its whereabouts was un-
known. 1t was finally found and the
park board decided to purchase it and
place it in one of the parks.
This little house took prominent
part in the history of Minneapolis. In
II the first white child born in what is
now the Flour City, daughter Of Col.
Stevens, first saw the light Of day.
Here was held the first term of court
in Hennepin county. The first religious
service took place and the first
church was organized within its walls.
Here were organized lodges and soci-
cites, and prospectors, tourists and In
dams were lodged within it.
Col. Stevens was born in Lower Cana
Ola, June 10, 1920. His parents were ma
tiyes Of Vermont. Before he became of
age Mr.. Stevens was resident of Ga
lena, ILL.,, and in 1876 went to Mexico as
. United States soldier, serving until
peace was declared. In 1s4s, before the
territory was even organized, he came

Although she has only lived in Chi

Schultz is, according to the Inter Ocean,
well known among her people here, and
is prominent socially. For several
months she was matron of Provident

She Is Also Related to Antonio Maceo,
the Famous Cuban Revolutionary
Leader Very Popular in Chi
cago, Her Present Home.

DIR. Beatrice Schultz, in whose veins
flows the blood of Toussaint POuyerture,
the once celebrated black chieftain of
Hayti, and of Antonio Maceo, the Cuban
insurgent leader, is the finest pistol
shot among her people in Chicago, and
isan elocutionst,write and social leader
as well. AS marksman she can hit the
bull's-eye ten times in succession at 100
feet; can throw a tin can in the air and
send five bullets through it ere 1t
reaches the ground, and shoot holes in
dime at ten PAGES distance. She can
take revolver in each hand and send
two bullets simultaneously inside the
center ring of target at 80 PAGES. She
can break glass balls and shoot birds on
the wing, only she says she doesn't like
to kill the birds. And once, she says,
she frightened flying footpad nearly
out of his wits by sending few bullets
through his garments after he had made
a dismal failure of an attempt to hold
her up.
Her love for craftsmanship, DIR.
Schultz feels, is an inheritance from her
great ancestor, L 0uverture, from whom
she is descended on the mothers side.
Antonio Maceo, she says, has also the
blood of L'Ouyerture in his viens, for a
part of the Roupe family, TO which
L'0uverture was related, removed to
Cuba and intermarried with the Ma

CUBA'S WOMAN COLONEL,
Mime. Adele Pflotro, Who Is Fighting for
Cuban Independence.

Cuban Independence.
Near the town of Vuelta Abajo, in the
province of Matanzas, in Cuba, Adele
Asiny de Pilotro lives on the estate
that has been the heritage of her family
for a number of generations.
Two years ago she lived a prosaic
enough life as the wife of colonel in
the Spanish army. Now she bears the
title of colonel herself, but, while her
husband leads flying column of royal
list soldiers, Sonora Pilotro commands
a regiment of 200 men, who are fighting
in the army of the Cuban republic.
Husband and wife are operating In
the same district. They are likely at
any time to face each other as enemies
at the heads of their respective COM
mands.
Sonora Pilotro is the only woman
fighting for Cuban liberty who holds a
