Frenchmen Consume More Arden-

Frenchmen Consume More Ardent
Spirits Than Any Other People.
New York Press
Among the many signs Of decadence in
France is the fact that the nation whose
people used to be held up to all others as
an example of abstemiouSnesS-and still
is by the uHinformed-is the drunkenest
on earth, or, at least, of record Mr.
Bloch. in investigating the fitness of the
various European powers for future
war, coliated the figures and found that
while thirty-six Austrians, forty Ger
mans, forty-siX Englishmen, forty-seven
Italians. and fifty Russians to the million
die from the effects of drink, the number
of Frenchmen was ninety-five, or almost
twice that of any other nationality
The only approach to the alcohol excess
Of the Gaul was that of his brother, the
Belgian, whom drink kills at the rate Of
seventy-six to the million.
Moreover. in the consumption of spirits
these closely rated nations were the only
ones to show an increase in the con-
sumption In a period of twenty years
Mr.. Bloch found that 100 Russians drank
thirty-ftVe Vedra, each Vedra equaling 20
gallons, of spirits in 1868, and twenty-nine
III 1888; every 100 Austrians, thrty-two in
1863 and twenty-nine in 1888; every 100
Germans, thirty-four and thirtythree In
the respective years, and every 100 Eng
lishmen twenty-four and twenty-five. But
France. which was still abstemious in
the last days of the empire, fairly took
to besotting itself under the republic,
Its consumption rose from twenty Vedra
per 100, the lowest in Europe. to thirty
one, almost the highest. simultaneously
the Belgian consumption rose from the
moderate rate of twenty-five to thirty
eight, the very highest.

The Most Successful Industrial Col
OnixatiOn scheme in America.
New York Post
What Is described as the most success
full Industrial colonization scheme in this
county is in operation in Tell City, Ind,
with forty-four years of life behind 1t
as proof of its success. Moreover, 1t is
said to be enc of the most prosperous
municipalities in Indiana, one where SO
per cent of the Inhabitants own their
homes. This latter fact may explain its
success. indicating, as 1t does, owner
ship in all things, but one in which in
dividual efforts may earn and enjoy the
rewards of industry. The city was found
ed in 1855 by the Swiss Colonization So
ciety of Cincinnati an organization eff
feCted by wealthy Swiss citizens of Gin
cinnati. assisted by Swiss in different
sections of the country. The location
chosen between the Indiana knobs and
the Ohio river, was selected because of
it's remeteness from disturbing influences,
its vicinity to navigable river, and its
underlying bed of camel coal The name
chosen is in honor of William Tell. Great
care was exercised in accepting colonists,
and money was loaned the cooperative
company for the building of a furniture
factory. This factory is still operating,
and is claimed to be the largest chair
factory in the United States. Its estab-
ishment determined the character of the
industry of the town and now there are
twenty-six woodworking shops, employ
ing about $50 men. The policy was fol-
lowed of keeping the cooperative COM
panies SMALL thus minimizing the chances
of disruption. The largest factory en-
pIoys only $50 men, and during the forty
four years Of the colony's history there
has not been financial failure.

merely an attack of pigue or sand-fea.
This insect is called nigua in the native

causes buboes and attacks the warmest
parts of the body-that is. the cavities Of
the groin and arm pit-just the same
spots as the Eastern plague. 1t attacks
Englishmen and German preferentally,
and avoids those that use but little soap.
Soaps clean the body, and the pigue
likes clean persons to eat 1t also avoids

stance occurred. 1t was related to me
by George du Maurier, the artist-novelist,
and well known to you all as the creator
OF Trilby." One lonely Sunday in Lon
don a friend approached him and asked
him II he had anything particular TO do;
II not, would he dine at the house of
some very hospitable acquaintance OF
his. We will call them the Robinsons!
They had given Du Maurier's friend carte
blanche te bring any one he liked to
/ meal on Sunday, in an informal way.
At the dinner table the conversation
turned on celebrated poison cases and
trials. Du Maurier launched out and
quoted the Madeleine Smith case, main
tanning with warmth that she ought to
have been hanged, beautiful or not, no
matter what proVocation there had BEEN
When he had done his harangue there
was dead silence. Conversation fell fiat,
and the party broke up.
WHAT DU MAURIER DID.
When they got outside. Du Maurier's
friend said:
DO you know what you have done?'
Done! What do you mean; done?"
DO you know who your hostess is?"
Mrs Robinson, 1 presume; you told
me so when you took me to the house.
She can't have changed her name In an
hour!'
but, my dear fellow, do you know who
she was?'

The Lamson case was another one Of
poisoning by a doctor. A little lad at
school, half brother I believe, was in
DR.. Lamson's way, and Ii was convenient
to get rid of him. So the doctor visited
him at school and took with him as
present a delicious cake. well primed with
strychnine. Lamson, watching him all
the time, without turning hair, saw the
little fellow eat the cake The lad died.
The doctor was deservedly hanged.
All London was once very much ex-'
cited by the Bravo" mystery. Mrs.
Bravo was a beautiful woman, in good
society, who had married an athletic,
handsome and very popular barrister.
She originally resided in Malvern, where
her best friend was the local physician.
Suddenly they all removed to BALKAN, a
London suburb, where young Bravo mys-
tericUsly died. 1t was charged that anti
mony was introduced again and again
into the wine he drank, continuously and
in small quantities. The poor young fell

anxious inquiry Mrs Bravo was acquit-

CASE OF MRS. MAVERICK.
The Mrs. Maybrick case is a poison
mystery Of such recent occurrence, and 1t

the dead man, his Illness and all the pros
and cons Of this most extraordinary cause
celebre l have heard as many eminent
lawyers capable of sitting evidence

strongly oppose the verdict as I have
heard many, the family included, maintain
its justice up to the hilt. For my own
part feel certain that had Mrs. May
brick been tried in Scotland and not in
England the verdict would have been as
IN the case of Madeleine Smith-"Not
proVen"-and this verdict seems a very
righteous one in trial for murder as
opposed to the stereotyped Guilty or not
guilty" Let US hope, anyhow, that JUS
tice in this disputed case will be tempered
with mercy, and that the unhappy wom-
an, after all these weary years, will be
restored to the arms of those loving ones
who have never ceased to maintain her
innocence before the world.
So much in England depends on the
temperament and summing up of the
judge. We have what are called "hang-
Ing judges" and judges who strain every
point to avoid the extreme penalty Of the
law.
