crease in drunkenness due TO the pres
ence there. Of American soldiers
The New York Independent started
the discussion this time by publishing
n letter from Harold Martin, the repre-
sentative Of the Associated Press In
Manila. According to his report. be-
fore the Americans reached the city
there were only three licensed saloons
for the sale Of brandy whisky and such
LIQUORS on May 10th, there were l'O
saloons IN the city and So wholesale
houses
The effect OF this increase In the
liquor traffic Is said 70 be deplorahle'
Mr. Martin alleges that an every day
scene IN the main thoroughfare Of the
city Is drunken rowdyism. Women are
subjected 70 unpleasant experiences
and private cabs and carriages are
often forcibly seized by drunken troops
The writer maintains that this drunk
enness Is INDUCED in mainly by Ameri-
cans. He says;
Both spanlards and Fllpinos are
temperate people, they do not drink 20
excess Any one who has been m SPAN
or who has seen the Spanish soldiers IN
Cuba In Porto Rico and the Philippines
VIII admit they are not addicted 70
heavy drinking, and I do not think THIS
point needs any further support Ana
the Filipino Is as temperate as the
Spanlard ! have been In these ISLANDS
for one year and I have yet 20 see an
intoxicated native. I do not maintain
that the Filipino never gets drunk, but
the occurrence Is unquestonably very
rare. II Is true that before we came
they manufactured and consumed large
quantities Of this bino that has euch
terrible effect upon our own men OUT
they drank II I'm moderation. while our
men use II 10 excess. A gentleman who
has been two years and q half ln the
Philippines has Just told me he has seen
| during that time two or three natives
| who he thought. were drunk; and IN
/ quiry among the old Spanish and Eng
] lish residents OF the country euclts
/ statements all OF one tenor, that the
Fnlplnos are a most temperate peo-
ple.'
II the report Is founded on facts, the
condition complained Of Is highly de-
plorable. We believe the intelligent
American soldier can be reasoned with
and made to see the mistake Of yield
ing to a murderous vice. We also be-
lleye the liquor traffic can be regulated.
It should not be too late to do so yet
| IN Manila,
War" It is said, rs hell" One Of It's
effects is the brutalizng influence 1t
has upon all those who participate in
It, as Is seen I'm all places where large
bodies Of soldiers are gathered, or in
ports where sailors and marines land
for their reyelries. Drunkenness,
fights, gambling, and RIGHTEOUSNESS
seem to be the pastimes INDUCED in, as
matter Of course. II the conditions
in Manila are as bad as described, that
is but another proof OF the degrading
influence Of army life, and the sooner
the war can be ended, and the soldiers
returned 10 their families, and 10 the
duties Of private citizens, the better.

As a subject Of popular and absorbing
interest the wheat situation In this
country is crowding the Beers In Africa,
the Boxers in China and the Bryanltes
at Kansas city for first place. II the
cereal keeps on in It's upward fight no
one will seriously concern himself about
the antics of the Boxers Ar
mics have 20 have ratlons,
and the opening Of China means
a larger market for American -four, and
hence a higher price for wheat. With
the demand constantly enlarglng and
with no rain IN the drought-stricken
districts In Minnesota and the Dakotas
there Is every reason to believe that
the present price is far from the top
notch.

Odd Nicknamss in Various Chimes for
Common Articles of Food.
Here comes again for the 'steenth
time that old question about the Welsh
rabbit or ''rarebit," says the New
York Press funny man. In Paris it is
"rarebit" on the bills of fare, or its
equivalent in French, but our late
dictionaries and our astute editors in
sist that it should be rabbit" After
half a days search arrive at the con-
clusion that 1t was originally rare
Bit" and that rabbit" is a modern
corruption. Certain of our lexico-
graphers insist that rabbit" as ap-
piled to cheese and toast. etc., is of
jocular origin, but l am not sure that
the people Of Wales regard cheese
thus prepared as their national dish.
1t Is true that we have the "Cape Cod
turkey" which is a Goldfish, and num-
erous other humorously applied special
dishes. The lamb fry is a mountain

the calf's head is mock turtle" the
cured ham Is Cincinnati chicken" red
herrings are Glasgow magistrates"
or Norfolk capons." the potato is an
''Irish apricot" a Murphy" or 2
Munster plum" the shrimp is o
"Gravesend sweetmeat," whisky IL
wine Of the country" or hair of the
dog" the rump Of a fowl is the
''pope's," parsons or bishops"

Prevention of tho Potato Disease.

great deal is being written about
a supposed prevention of the potato
disease discovered by a County LINER
lex man. His plan is to extend wires
here and there across the field in
which the potatoes are planted, the
idea being that all the damage is done
by electricity, and that by intercept
ing the electric current the mischief is
prevented. In Ireland, especially, a
thunderstorm gets all the credit OF
producing the blight" and 1t would
be very hard to persuade the people of
the Emerald Isle that 1t was not the
lightning, and that alone which was
responsible for blackening the precious
crop and not a vegetable parasite. At
first sight the theory of the country
folk seems to be all right. as 1t is an
undoubted fact that the dreaded dis
ease invariably makes its appearance
Just after the occurrence of heavy
thunder storm. This, however, Is
easily accounted for, as it is usually
after long spell of dry weather that
thunder comes. and the heavy rains
accompanying the storm, creates a
climatic condition most favorable for
the potato fungus to work its wicked
will

said one Of the Chicago detectives here
for Mardi Gras, that young fellow
from Kentucky had been beaten out of
a couple of hundred dollars by conf
dence man last Tuesday night. The
sharper had scraped an acquaintance,
borrowed the money until he could get
a thousand-dollar bill changed and
left the poor dupe waiting on the side

coat incident was really the meat OF
the whole affair. II the young Ken
tuckian hadn't been requested to guard
the garment he would never have per-
mitted the other fellow to get out OF
his sight until he paid back the 5000
he had borrowed earlier in the even

worth about rs cents at junk shop,
inspired him with unlimited conf

geration that I've known the same
kind of dodge to be worked success

In every instance the dupe was given

old-fashioned blue Bingham umbrella
with an ebony handle, very respecta-
ble-looking umbrella, and when he ex-
cused himself for moment after max

his victim to look after 1t until he re-
turned. They say Burns used to buy
