THE IMPARTIAL INVESTIGATION OF
ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES BY
HEALTH JOURNALS.

by J. II. WAxNkk, M. ~.
People who wish to make right use OF alco-
holie beverages welcome scientific light upon the
subject Naturally, they look to the hygenic
journals for reliable information, as the layman
has but little time to investigate along this line;
moreover, it requires q technical knowledge
which the masses do, not possess to pronounce
intelgently upon the hygienie value OF such
beverages
; Learned physicians, knowing the value OF pure
alcoholic beverages, continue to order their pa
tients to use them, warning them to obtain only
the purest, for these practitioners are well aware
Of the bad effects which follow the use OF beyer-
ages in which the distiller in order to reduce the
cost Of manufacture, introduces eheaply prepared
chemical preparations to take the place OF na-
tures pure grain.
: The relation of the health journals to this most
important question is vital one Alcoholic bev-
ersges are being used extensively, have been, and
will be, and the temptation to adulterate these
produets is growing greater. rather than less.

absolute purity, and every adultersted beverage

Suffering From Heart Disease on His
Ship and No One Permitted
to See Him.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-The Army
and Navy Register. in it's issue to-
morrow, will say:
Recent letters from Manila mention
the illness of Admiral Watson as the
source of great anxiety to his officers
The illness is the effect of an accident
which occurred to his launch while he
was on board on July II. The Balti-
more, his flagship, has been for some
time at Cavite, leaving Manila so as
to escape the full force of the typhoons
Requiring to make a trip up the river,
the admiral started in his launch. A
strong wind was blowing and as the
launch, the Undine, went under the
Bridge of Spain, the strong current,

from q sailing vessel.
This rope carried away the awning,
and, striking the smokestack, took that

having been startled excessively by the
occurrence or in any way of having

before his return to the flagship, seri-
Gus heart trouble developed. and in
consequence he was regarded as ex-
tremely i'll up to the date of the letters

red light predominates. The glass used
was gold ruby, which transmits red nght
and cuts off the other Colors. The dis

COPPER BELT IN
YUKON DISTRICT
Ore Is Plentiful and
Very Rich.
Special Dispatch to rhe Call.

TACOMA, Aug. 25.-Bennett City ad-
is known to extend from White Horse
Rapids on the Yukon River to a point
on the Dalton trail forty miles from
the Lynn Canal. 1t is all in British
territory.
Captain Jarvis of the Northwest
mounted police left Bennett last week
for the end of the belt on Dalton trail.
known as the Copper Blowout District.
He was in the district several weeks
ago, and is returning with a large
party. He says the quartz taken out
assays 3S to SO per cent copper, and
there is apparently an unlimited de-
post. Hundreds of claims have been
staked.
The district is just beyond the Por-
cupine placer fields and eight miles be-
yond the international boundary. 1t is
reached by trail from Haines Mission.
and it is said an easy water grade is
available for taking the product to
tfdewater. The White Horse copper
leads are thought to be extensions of
those on Dalton trail. The best of the
find is four miles from the Yukon.
Four thousand acres are staked. and
one company of twenty-five men has
$500 acres. They have filed water rights
at the perennial rapids at Miles Canyon
with the view of working the mines by
electricity. 1t is estimated that in one
place there are 10000 tons of copper
quartz in sight that is worth $50 per
ton. Many strikes of silver and gold
bearing quartz are being made in the
Upper Yukon district. but DEVELOPMENT
is not far enough along to prove the
value of the properties.
