Emphatic Denial That 1t Was
Brought Here by Belgic.
LOCAL DISEASE FROM FILTH.
President w. o. smith OF the Health
Board Interviewed-A Review ofthe
Late Epidemic, It's Causes and In
troduction-Board of Health Certain.

And now comes DR.. Bowie and
emphatically denies that the dis
ease prevalent here short time
ago was Asiatic cholera, but was
a species of cholera with local
origin from dirt and filth.
DIR. Bowie was physician on the
Belgic which is said to have
brought cholera to Honolulu, but
he again denies and reiterates and
repeats that the Belgic never had
any cholera on board in her life, or
more particularly from Yokohama
to Honolulu at the time mentioned.
DIR. Bowie is through passen-
ger by the Coptic and is bound for
San Francisco to join the Doric or
return to the Belgic, the latter yes
sci being expected at the Coast
some time in February.
In connection with the above,
President w. O. Smith, of the
Board of Health, was interviewed
and spoke as follows:
"The physicians and officials Of the
Board of Health are satisfied that
cholera was introduced here by or
through the passengers who arrived
by the steamship Belgic, August 9th,
and that the waters of the harbor be-
rfn from N
several of the passengers on that ves-
sci who had cholera. One of the pas
sengers died on the morning Of the
arrival of the vessel at this port. One
was sick at the time he was removed
to the quarantine station and vomited
in the scow when being taken over.
After reaching the quarantine station
the sick man was taken with violeut
vomiting and purgiDg, accompanied
by cramps. He was Immediately sep
arated from the other immigrants.
A young Chinaman accompanied him
as nurse. The sick man died the next
DAY, August IL. Upon the following
day august ~ the young Chinaman
who had attended this case was bim-
self taken suddenly i'll and died the
next morning at 8 am august 13th)
after an illness of only fifteen hours.
He was not seen bya physician, but
his ptoms w-re described by Mr..
| McVeigh, the officer in charge Of the
quarantine station, as follows: Vio-
lent purging and vomiting, cramps in
abdomen and extrenities He became
rapidly emaciated and his body " as
| cold.'
"There was overwhelming evidence
that the waters OF the harbOr became
infected shortly after the arrival of
| the Belgic, and not in single case
could the Infection be traced to the
provisions or freight imported. Affi-
davits taken of several Of the Chinese
passengers, one of them being an old
resident of Maui returning to his ISL
aud home, distinctly stated that two
of the Chinese passengers who died on
the voyage were affected in the same
way as those who died at the quaran-
tine station, viz: vomiting, purging
and cramps. AS a result OF the evi-
dence and circumstances OF the case,
there can be no question as to the fact
that the steamship Belgic brought
the disease Of cholera here on that
occasion"

variations be not only at one meal, but
along the line of many meals.
AS to exercise just after eating, as a
rule it is bad. Professor Allen does not
dwell upon this so much as he should.
We are convinced third of the dys-
peptic ills would disappear from Ameri-
can life if after each meal the individual
could be required to devote a half hour
to absolute undisturbed rest. However,
Professor Allen says that while moder-
ate exercise just after eating is prob
ably not prejudicial, violent exercise
certainly is.
In violent exercise the blood is drawn
away from the stomach, and as a result
too little gastric juice is secreted, the
gastric glands secreting actively only
when well supplied with blood. SINH
larly, and for the same reason, active
mental effort is not conducive to good
digestion During sleep digestion is not
very active. The older physiologies
used to tell US to avoid eating anything
within at least three hours of bed time.
Experience teaches, / think, that per-
son gong to bed with a moderately full
stomach will sleep better than if the
stomach be empty. If you need the food
take it. Cheerfulness has long been
considered a very efficient aid to di-
gestion. "Cheerfulness and health re-
act on each other' and food we'll chat
ted is half digested" are sayings which
contain more than little truth

A NEW PLAN FOR THE CARE OF
DRUNKARDS.

They have proposition on the wheels
of debate in the State of New York
that takes well with the people. 1t is
proposed to provide that each commun-
ity shall take care of it's own drunkards;
that is to say, the community in which
the drunkard gets his liquor shall take
care Of the fellow. Whenever a mag
istrate commits a man on the testi-
mony of two reputable witnesses that
he is drunkard, he is to be sent to a
hospital for drunkards and there
treated and taken care Of This puts
the burden of the care of drunkards
upon the community that issues the
license for sale of liquors, say the advo
Gates of the plan.
The idea is that such imposition as is
provided in the plan will bring all COM
munities to wise regulation of the liquor
traffic so as to reduce drunkenness very
much. 1t sounds we'll In theory it is
well and just. But in practice we very
much fear that it would not work The
cost that drunkard is to community
falls upon it now There is no avoid
ance of it. True, the congregation of the
drunkards and the distinct discovery
of the cost of their maintenance and
treatment in hospitals, would bring the
public to closer view of it. But what
then? There would be just as much
liquor drank.
Liquor drinking is of two kinds; for
the effect-and this grows into habit
that becomes morbid and diseased; sec
ondly, for sociability, and because of
plenitude of invitations-and this pur-
sued leads to morbidity also, very often.
Unless therefore there is regulation that
removes the invitation largely and that
puts the drunkard cost upon the seller
of liquor there will be no diminution of
drunkenness.
If there is ever any such regulation,
it will come about as the result of moral
| conviction, and as the Judgment that
economic policy dictates. Now how will
the placing of drunkards in hospitals
bring to pass such results? We fail to
see any logical connection between the
two. In every community in New York
and everywhere else. each taxpayer
knows that he pays his share of the cost
of drunkenness; that drunkenness costs
every community something.
That the community may be support
ing drunkards whose appetites became
morbid in some other jurisdiction, cuts
little figure with the taxpayer, because
he knows that drunkards made in his
own community are visitations also
upon other communities There are so
many new tangled and impracticable
notions nowadays for the 1essening of
the pernicious influences of intemper-
ance, that thoughtful people are pre-
pared to fall back in disgust and reject
ing them all, settle down to the con-
clusion that every community has just
as many drunkards as it deserves. and
no more and no less.

winner with the pen, but with this ex-
ception, namely, that such bread-win-
ming by the wife oftener strains the
marriage relation than where the hus-
band is the literary worker. Indeed,
we cannot understand how anyone can
seriously adhere to the idea that success
in authorship on the part of man
should render him more liable to be
withdrawn from his family than the fol-
lowing of any other intellectual pursuit.
The lives of our great preachers, au-
thors, dramatists, artists and journal
lists and orators-those men who win the
sunlight of its smile-stand forward in
denial of the proposition that their mar
riage state is an inharmonious or
strained one. A few have been unhappy
in marriage, but the great mass have
been happily married and contented
with their families, and often inspired
TO greater achievement by them. In
deed, we believe that absorption in busi-
ness. commerce, great financial and
great political schemes has done infin-
itely more to create unhappiness in the
family and weaken the tie than has ever
resulted from absorption of the man or
woman by literature or art.
The Atlanta Constitution" comes
very near to the truth when it says:
'9The family tie seems to be weakening
everywhere and in all classes of society.
Whether it is due to religion, lax mo-
rails, the growth of selfishness or the
teachings of a certain class of so-called
reformers we cannot say. But the fact
confronts US, and it is looming up into

ATE A YARD OF IRON PIPE.
Dubois, Gifted Frenchman, Did This,
in the Shape of Filings.


In Paris Americans enjoy the reputa-
ton above any other nationality of do
ing the most unheard of things, so that
''as mad as an American has become
trite saying in the French Capital.
But it is safe to say that no American,
drunk or sober, would have made as
foolhardy a bet as certain Partisan
named Alexandra Dubois made re-
Gently.
Dubois and a cOmrade, both clerks in
the same manufacturing house. were
sitting in a cafe in the Rue de la Cha
pelle. The conversation was of their re-
speetive powers of digestion, and Du-
bois asserted that his stomach could
| convert iron pipe into good, rich blood
without the least Inconvenience. His
companion offered to bet him 500 francs
| (SlOO) that he was WronG, but to the
surprise of those who had been listen
| ing, Dubois pulled a hundred franc note
from his pocket and accepted the wager.
BY the terms Dubois was to purchase
meter (33I14 feet) of one inch iron pipe,
have it reduced to filings, and eat it all
while playing a game of cards. He
was to be allowed five glasses of beer
with which to wash down this indigesti-
BILE repast. The next day Dubois, ac-
companied by several friends, pur-
chased the meter of new one-inch iron
pipe, and took it 70 locksmith, who
half in fear of the supposed madman,
quickly reduced it to the finest of filings.
These were placed in q paper and con-
fided to the care Of one OF the witnesses.
That evening the crowd at the cafe
was so great that several policemen
came hurrying up under the impression
| that bomb had been discovered. Du-
bois separated the iron filings. into five
equal parts, and emptied them. one
after another, into five glasses of beer,
which he drank within an hour, literally
washing down the metal with the liquid.
He played several games of piquet
meanwhile with his accustomed skill
" hen the last glass was drained, he sat
for a while. smoking MS cigar, with the
apparent content of a man who had just
finished a sumptuous repast.
1t is not known what means, If any,
M. Dubois took to get the iron out OF
his stomach, but the Paris papers say
that up to several days ago he was en-
Toying the best OF health. and was APP
/ parently none the worse for his strange
meal.

His Sins Have Overtaken Him.
Huntsville Mercury.

Huntsville Mercury.
The county convention administered
the mosb singing rebuke to Senator
Hundley yesterday that it has been the
lot of an Alabama politician to swallow.
The denunciation was neither unkind
nor too severe, but was extremely just
and appropriate. 1t was sovereign body
of democrats who felt that they and their
party had been outraged by political
trickster and they were justified in thus
giving vent to an honest expression of
their keenly felt indignation. n
To denounce man as "a Benedict Ar
mold to the cause of democracy and "a
Scipio to throw a bombshell'' is scathing
in the extreme, but who will say 1t was
not fully justified? The patriots of the
American revolution did not feel deeper
Indignation at Benedict Arnold's treach-
cry than did the democracy of Madison
when Senator Hundley announced his al
legiance to the republican party. The
convention closed its request for Sena-
tor Hundleys resignation by declaring
at patriotic step to show our indigna-
ton in terms immeasurable."
Senator Hundley cannot hope or expect
to retain the respect or forbearance OF the
democracy of Madison county while ne
holds democratic commission. Had he
a modicum of regard for the party or
party men who nominated and elected
him he would surrender the commission
and look to his new friends for political
preferment. Unless he does this he will
be despised by all honest party men,
