Do NOT EAT EGGS WHEN ANGRY,
Dyspepsia IL Caused by InduIgenc
Under Certain Condition..

Dyspepsfa IL Caused by Indulgence
Under Certain Condition..
From the st. Louis Republic.
Did you know it was dangerous to eat
eggs while you are angry% was the strange
question asked by A E. Stewart a Bos-
tonese. who is a st. Nicholas guest Don't
ask me for the reason Of it, for 1 can't give
1t. but 1 do know from observation that
people have died in terrible agony after
eating eggs while their passions were
aroused. You needn't laugh. / don't mean
while the passions of the eggs were aroi1s-
ed. 1 mean the temper of the victims. I
mentioned this to an eminent physician
once and he scoffed at it. That was no less
than l expected him to do. Physicians
don't know much that lies out of the beaten
paths of their science. They don't even
know how to cure the grip. But take warn
Ing from me and never eat eggs while YOU
are angry. Then you will be on the safe
side. no matter what your doctor may tell
you about It.
MY attention was first called to this
strange fact by the tragic and sudden
death of lady acquaintance in Boston
bands Invitation to dine I with them. @ just just
as we were going in to dinner q servant
did something that caused the lady to fly
Into terrible rage. She had been irritable
from some minor complaint for several
days. and her husband calmed her ruffied
feelings sufficiently for the dinner to be
eaten In good temper. I noticed that she
ate an unusually large amount of soft
scrambled eggs. Fifteen minutes after we
left the dining room she was corpse. She
died In frtghtfm commissions before the
nearest-by doctor reached the house. The
physician was unable to ascribe the cause.
A few months later I was visiting a brother
In Connecticut and one of his sons died
under similar circumstances. Before break
fast one morning the boy, who was about
fifteen years old, had q fight with q neigh
bors boy. Before mis- anger had subsided
my nephew was called to breakfast He
ate four soft-boiled eggs. Had known as
much then as do now I would have pre-
vented It. In less than a half hour after
breakfast the boy died with exactly. the
same symptoms that were present when
my friends wife died. This set me to
thinking about the matter.
'It wasn't long after this before q Beacon
Hill friend Of mine expired suddenly after q
meal. The doctors, as usual, were divided
In opinion as to the cause OF death. Some
of them contended that 1t was heart fall
ure, whatever that Is. and others are stiii
holding out that 1t was apoplexy. Inquiry
by me developed the fact that my friend
was very angry when he sat down at table.
and that he ate nve eggs. With these de-
velopments I searched no farther for the
cause Of his death. He was angry, he ate
eggs and he died. II these are not links in
the chain Of cause and effect the human
intellect il Incapable OF logical thinking"

FOUND DEAD IN AN ALLEY

The dead body of Washington Martin.
coiored, was found this morning between
12 and 1 O'Clock in an alley near 9Th and
X streets northeast, only a short distance
from the mans home. Tho police patrol
wagon from the ninth precinct was called
and the body was taken to the morgue.
I've got dead body in the wagon" I"
was the way the man In charge announced
his presence In the police station where
the morgue is located. But" he added.
Il don't know whether he's dead or not"
The key to the morgue was handed over
to him with instructions that he place
the body in the little brick structure. and
Policeman Mansfield, who gave the dlrec-
tions, thought the body would be prop
erly bestowed. But in this he was mis-
taken, for the dead man was put on the
floor and left there. When Superintendent
building this morning with two friends OF
the deceased he was very much mortihed
at finding the body where It was, and at
once set out to make inquiries.
Afraid He Would Revive.
He was told that the body was not put
on the table for fear the man would re-
turn to life and fall on the floor.
The dead man was twenty-nine years old
ard rs the coroner could find no cause Of
death, from the appearance Of the body
ard the statements of his friends he or
dered an autopsy. which will be made late
this afternoon by Deputy Coroner G5axe-
brock.
Martins wife could not account for her
husbands death, and the Roginski broth
ers, for whom he had worked for two
years. give him an excellent reputation. lie
was not much of q drinking man. although
he occasionally drank q glass OF beer.
His employers gave him three dollars
yesterday afternoon just before he left the
shop, and he went home, but he had not
given his wife any Of the money when his
dead body was found.
The man had vomited and was lying in
the alley with his face downward. Persons
who afterward handled his body said they
detected the odor of beer.
His Pockets Picked.
His trousers pockets had been pulled out
and there was not a cent found on him.
This caused the suspicion that he had been
robbed; but If so. the police believe the
robbery was committed after the man
dropped dead.
Martins employers have an idea that he
was poisoned. but this will not be deter
mined until the post-mortem examination Is
made.

To Meet the sImonton Decision.

Senator Tillman. from the committee on
interstate commerce, yesterday submitted
a report on his bill for the amendment of
the Wilson law concerning the commerce
in liquor between the states His bill is
intended to legalize the South Carolina dis
pensary, and the report says its enactment.
in view Of the recent decision OF Judge
Simonton, is necessary to protect the state
from the evils of intemperanre. The report
also says: IF the state of South Carolina
is to be flooded, as 1t will be- by liquors
under the preeext that they are for pri-
vate USE when, In fact, they are for sale
without analysis. 1t Is readily seen what
obstacles are thrown In the way of state
control" The conclusion Is drawn that
no remedy Is left for restricting lntem-
perance except prohibition, and that the
report Is pronounced a failure.
