Germany's Inebriate Law.

A law goes into effect in Germany
this year providing for the compul-
sorry treatment of inebriates. An in
ebriate is described as lone who," in
consequence of inebriety, cannot pro.
vide for his affairs, or brings himself
or his family into the dangers of need
or endagers the life of other" Such
persons, by the law, are made liable
to be placed under curatos or guard
ians, who are empowered to put them
anywhere for treatment until dis
charged BY the court.
1t will thus be seen that inebriety
ia Germ to bet fasatspd zssa dis
ease, 81 as specie }of instantly, which
requires publicsupervision and con-
troll. As this is not a paternal govern
al such "a law could not
be passed by congress. but a state
undoubtedly has the right to provide
for the confinement of iuebriates as
we'll as of the insane. If the treat
ment were humane and designed as
curative in it's effect, such practice
would undoubtedly conduce to the
benefit of the community as we'll as
of the individuals treated. Germany
does not tackle kindly to prohibition
laws, but propose to take in hand the
victims of strong drink and either re-
form then or keep them out of mis-
hief.-Minneapolis Tribune.

Abe Llncoln johnson, at his home IN
this place Sunday, January 22d,
1899, of inflammation of kidneys.
He was taken sick about the first
Of December with what was suppos-
sed to be the grip, and recovered sul-
ticiently 80 as to be around, but in a
weak condition and showing the Of
fects Of his sickness. About Christ
mas he was obliged 10 take to hie
bed from which he never got up. He
continued to grow worse gradually
but not to an alarming degree for
some time: and during the last two
weeks was in critical conditions. At
times he was delirious and violent,
requiring three men to hold him in
bed, up to a few days before his
death, when he became more quiet.
Friday and Saturday it was thought
there was change for the better.
About nine o'clock Saturday even
ing he went to sleep from which he
never awoke. The nurse, Mr.. Tut
tie says between the hour mentioned
and twelve o'clock he was very quiet,
but at times making some movement
which was not unusual, but after a
prolonged quiet spell which attracted
his attention and upon investigation
found him breathing his last about
1890 Sunday morning. The de-
ceased was born in Black River Falls,
Wis.,, Oct. 3Oth, 1861, and came to
Worthington with his parents, B. F..
johnson, when twelve years of age
He has been engaged in the hard
ware business under the name Of
Durfee & johnson, after going out Of
this, entered the employ of tbs Bur-
lington road as commercial agent,
which position held at the time of
his death, He was married to Miss
Carrie Mitchell, and their union was
blessed with four children, two boys
and two girls, the oldest being sew
en- years of age. He was a member
of the M. W.. A, Eastern Star and
Masonic Societies, the latter having
charge of the funeral ceremonies
which we're held Tuesday forenoon
in the Congregational church, Rev.
Aull, of the Presbyterian church
preaching the sermon. Besides his
own family he leaves two sisters, a
father and mother to mourn his un-
timely death. He stood very high in
the community, esteemed by all and
there are many expressions that no
other man would: be greatly missed
than be-. He was always willing to
do anything for anybody when cal.
led upon and the yaes1ioy " n1ao5t
places caused by his being taken
away will be long time untitled.
1t is expected that Mrs. johnson
will 90 to Michigan with her father
as soon as business affairs can be ar
ranged.
Her father was here to attend the
funeral, also his mother but his faith
or who is in Missouri was unable to
be present on account of just being
out of his sick bed and in a very
weak condition.. The bereaved fam
lily have the sympathy of the entire
community in their Sad hours.

A Marine of Battleship Olympia
Here

The first of this week Worthington
was visited by one of the men, who
was engaged on the warship Olym-
pia, Dewey's flagship, which was
prominent in the greatest battle in
history, F. H. Convers. who was on
his way home in Or.onville, MINI.
He was fireman, but was able to
see considerable of the battle by
going on deck from time to time as
it was possible. He is very pleas:
ant gentleman, modest, unassuming,
and has none of the air, that is fre-
quently noticed OF men that have had
such experiences, being that of a
bravado or an idea that they were

deserving of being honored. He has
been in the service over three years
and, having served his time, Is taking
a little time of, but says since ]eav-
ing the ship has been very lone
some. He talks quite freely of the
battle and describes similar to the
description heretofore given. While
here he was a guest of his cousin,
Miss ,Smead, one of our public
school teachers. He was an object
of great interest, being attired in the
regulation uniform Of the United

fore IL is concluded. Mr. MaZet said yesterday
that the action Of the Legislature in voting $4,000
for the committees expenses ought TO convince
some doubling people that there was TO be thor
ough investigation. .
AS to the legality Of the appropriation. he said;
1.-THE law providing that no committees appointed
by branch of the Legislature shall be support
ed at public expense does not apply The same
question has come up before In connection with
other similar committees. and the matter was set
tied long ago. The appropriation for $4,000 was
part of the Supply BILL was passed by both houses,
and is, therefore, perfectly legal We do not an
ticipate any trouble that score"
