Mysterious Shooting I'm Jacksonville.
Jacksonville, April 21,-Miss Mary
Louise Cato, a beautiful Cuban woman,
about 20 years Old, was mysteriously
shot and seriously wounded last even
ing. Edward Pitzer, the lover of the

the girl was about to enter her home
she was fired upon from ambush, the
first bullet passing through her left
arm. Another bullet entered the right
side of the back penetrating the liver,

through the lung. A fourth bullet was

The recent discovery of an oak tree

low the surface, while sinking a we'll
with "a drill at the confluence of the
Oneida and Seneca rivers. is an i'm
portant discovery. 1t indicates that the
Oneida river was at one time the outlet
of an immense volume of water and
opens TO our readers very interesting
geological conjectures.
The theory would seem to be plausi-
BILE that the Oneida river was once the
outlet Of the great chain of lakes. One
is reminded that Lake Ontario is 334
feet lower than Lake Erie. Three Rivers
is 115 feet higher than Lake Ontario at
Oswego. \ great depression has taken
place, unquestionably in conditions i'm
mediately connected with Lake Ontario.
1t has apparently subsidized several hun
dred feet. while the Oneida river has
been raised up so that to-day it is rs
feet higher than the surface of the
waters of Lake Ontario.
The waters from the great chain Of
lakes must have passed from Lake On
tario south through the valley where
The Oswego river now runs. reversal
of the present course of that river. At
the confluence of the Oneida with the
Oswego this great volume of water
made its way eastward through the
Oneida river to the Mohawk and Hudson
rivers. The Mohawk valley shows plain
ly that it was a great water course ut
one period and the discovery of the
buried timber at Three Rivers proves
conclusively that the water bed of the
Oneida was at one period at least 50
feet lower than it now is and perhaps
100 to $50 feet lower.
1t is even asserted that the shores of
Lake Ontario were once located as far
south as Baldwinsville; thence the
course of the shore has been traced
through Cayuga, Wayne, Monroe and
adj jacent counties. This condition
shows. if correct, that the whole re-
gion, including Schoeppel, Clay. Cicero
and portions of Madison county, was
. t one period a vast lake, but that in sub
sequent years subsidence of the waters
took place by the depression, causing
Lake Ontario. Silt was washed down
from the west through the Oswego add
Oneida rivers and valleys. The drift
of allIvium was eastward and. as now
proved. covered up trees and filed in
deep channels. 1t is con iectured that
the St. Lawrence river did not exist at
that time. Popular Science News.

WASN'T TRAINED TO DRINK.
Miss willard Discovers An Ocean Captain
Who Was o Total Abstainer.

It is lunch time on a famous trans
Atlantic ''tlier," ship well-nigh 600
feet long, with engines of 10000 horse
power and 1900 voyagers, writes Fran
ces f. Willard, in Union Signal.
Here are your table tickets" said the
steward, and a minute later l found
myself seated at the captains right
hand. The distinction surprised me,
for it was usually given TO some IA
nous politician, noted capitalist or So
ciety leader. A teetotaler and temper
ance reformer is the last one to be thus
honored, for the captain generally
takes a glass of wine at dinner and if
he does not his guests are likely to do so,
But this time our captain was a strict
total abstainer. And why not? He
was bred in Maine from the age of five,
was a Good Templar from his youth,
and told me he had never known the
taste Of liquor in his life" He was Il
noble specimen of manhood-over six
feet high and well proportional, weigh
ing 2SO pounds and carrying himself
with gracious dignity.
We talked of his career. He had
risen from before the mast" until he
had now been for years captain of a first
class ocean greyhound" and he told
ne that he owed it all TO his clean hab-
its. When he first began to rise, the
ship on which he was an officer put into
the port of San Francisco. and as it was
"a great day" all the men were drink
ing, the captain leading on and ask
ing him to celebrate" Il did no.

BEER suPPLANTlNG WHISKY.
AS Nation We Are Using Less Strong
Stimulant.

The internal revenue receipts Of the
United States government for the last
fiscal year show an increase of about
one per cent. in the income from the tax
on spirits, whereas the revenue raised
by the tax on malt and other fcrmeuted
liquors increased no less than SIX per
cent. The rates of taxation were not
changed, 50 that the increase in re-
ceiptS corresponds with the expansion
of the market for the liquors taxed
These figures seem to prove that the
consumption of spirits is not increas-
ing in the United States as fast as the
population. 1t is evident that the rate
of growth in the last fiscal year was not
much more than half as much as the
rate of gain in the number of inhab-
itants.
On the other hand. the revenue from
the tax on beer and similar liquors indi-
Gates that the use of such alcoholic key-
erages is fast outrunning the increase
of population. 1t is not probable that
the number of inhabitants of the United
States is growing at the rate of NOR
than two per cent. year, and if this
is so the consumption OF beer showed
All increase last year about three times
as great, in proportion, as the growth of
the country.
This means that we are becoming
more like the continental countries OF

(force) than it gives.
Every healthy human body contains
q store of latent energy. Any one of
the stimulants taken into the body lib
crates some of that energy, either as
work done or as heat sensible to the
body.
Stimulants are vegetable. animal, al
coholic. Vegetable stimulants are tea

is beef tea.
Beef tea, ordinary tea, coffee and CO.

substances which are very nearly alike
in chemical formula.
When we take cup of tea we take it
10 get out of the body certain force
from a reserve that otherwise we would
not draw on. We arc tending to bank
lupt the system. and the stimulant adds
nothing to our capital.
The use of a stimulant at any time
should be followed by the prompt inges-
ton of easily digestcd food sufficient to
replace the amount of force that the
stimulant released.
Our hospitals abound in tea drunk
ards and coffee drunkards, just as
much. perhaps, as alcoholic drunkards.
A woman nervous over household
cares, too busy to get a meal, takes a
cup of tea sr:,l feels better momentarily.
The tea braccs her up, liberating some
of the force that has been SsiI-red up.
Shortly she breaks down again and
takes another cup of tea. This pro-
ceeds every few hours for days. Ulti-
lnately she gets into the doctors hands.
Before she can recover she must give
back to the body the force that has
been robbed from it.
To get the strength ont of the meat
one must consume its proteid matter
as we'll as the other constituents.
eeef tea is in itself stimulant, but
not food.
In administering beef tea give the
patient nourishing food at the same
time or shortly after.
A perfectly well person needs no slim
ulant.
Never take stimuIant before task.
After the task is done and the need
OF something bracing is felt. a stimu-
liant may be advisable, as a cup of tea,
coffee or cocoa.
Much poverty is due to abuse of slim
ulants: poverty also leads to their use.
