Sea Voyages for Inebriety.
From the Hospital.

From the Hospital
At the last meeting of the Society for
the Study of 1nebriety, DR.. Wynn Westcott
read a paper in which he gave expression
to certain views in regard to the use of
sea voyages in the treatment Of inebriety
which should be carefully considered by all
physicians who may feel inclined, as no
doubt many do at times feel inclined, to
advise q reformed drinker to take a sea
voyage as a means of establishing his
health before returning again to his ordi-
nary mode OF life. DR.. Wynn Westcott said
that he had formed a decided opinion on the
subject The sort Of cases which would be
likely to be sent would be those in which
it was desirable to re-establish the general
health, and 1t was to be remembered that
under the most favorable circumstances life
at sea was not all rest and comfort and
that the nursing, dieting and quietude
which were essential for patients with per-
haps fatty heart or liver, were very sell
dom to be obtained Few cases, indeed, Of
advanced disease of any kind seemed to
him suitable for sea life, even at its best
There was no doubt, moreover, that the
dizziness and monotony Of the Iife and
other causes. tended to produce thirstiness.
Often q good deal was drunk just before
reaching the home port in consequence OF
the people on board being In disturbed,
excited state; and again, the period of ner-
vous irritable depression and praecordial
distress to which the dipsomaniac was sub
ject, were likely to be more frequent on
board ship than ashore. Therefore, IL
dipsomaniac really wanted to get well, he
should be discouraged from taking a sea
voyage. The ideal ship for patient who
wished to travel in this manner would be
sailing ship, which was commissioned on
teetotal principles, with teetotaI captain
and crew, and which touched at scarcely a
single port en- route. Such a ship, how
ever. would, We think, be generally difficult
to find In any case, no reformed drunkard
should be trusted on sea voyage alone.

they would strike out for some other camp
along the line, saying things did not suit

would be enacted. Such tramps have worked

suffer for their worthlessness, and now ali

The Woman of Forty.
n thu T.nndr,a Cpa

It was Balzac who discovered that the
woman of thirty is more fascinating than
the girl Of twenty. Now the "Lady's Pic

a decade later. declaring that the apple
of discord is due to the woman of FORTY
1t is an interesting profession Of faith
and one wonders whether the general ac-
ceptance of it by mankind has anything to
do with that increasing tendency to defer
marriage till late In life which modern
philosophers have often noticed and some
times deplored. II the woman of forty ia
really the most charming woman 1t is only
natural that bachelors should wish to re-
main until they are fit helpmates for her.
There is, however, one reflection that
should give them pause. However much
more charming than the girl of twenty the
woman of forty may be, there remains a
strong probability that she may not keep
her charms so long, That fact. also
should certainly be borne in mind bv

CADIZ TO MARTINS FERRY
The Route of Another Contemplated
Railway, for Which Surveys Are
Now being Made.

From Cadiz, the county seat of Harri-
son county, o., to Martins Ferry, is the
proposed line of an electric railway which
at present is being talked much about on
the Ohio side of the river. At present a
survey is being made, and the proposed
company appears to mean business.
Their line so far, has been surveyed out
along the roads leading to the river by
the shortest route. and the pixies. and is
well defined in this way. For some time
the people along the proposed route AVE
been wondering as to the identity of the
parties backing the promoters. From a re-
liable source it was learned yesterday
that the Wheeling Traction Company, Of
this city, We're the promoters, and that
they preferred to connect their rural line
at Martins Ferry.
The company is said to have a number
of rural routes under consideration, but
think this the best paying one that they
have considered. This line, if built, Will
be a part of what probably means a
rural network Of electric lines for this
city; and this, with other proposed lines
which reach as far as Columbus, will
make this city their terminus.

News Notes of Interest Concerning

The packets plying on the upper
Ohio have suspended operations on
account of the heavy ice in the chan
mel and the difficulty in making way
landings. The marks on the wharf
at midnight showed 8 feet 3 inches
and stationary. This low condition
of the river allows the ice to collect
along the shore and landings are
either impossible to reach or are
reached with difficulty. Unless there
is an immediate rise in the tempera-
ture the Ohio will close.

have been misled by recent newspaper
publications it may be stated that there
is absolutely no bloo4 relationship be-
tween Mr.. Frank E. Mccoy. general
manager and treasurer Of the Mccoy
Shoe Company, and Captain ]. E. Nc
Coy. Captain Mccoy happened to be
a stockholder in the Mccoy Shoe Com

belief that he was a brother of Mr..

affairs of the company and of Captain
Mccoy are absolutely distinct. with the
exception of the holding OF stock not

There are no new developments in

leading to his room locked.
They could receive no answer to re-

forced the door open. On the bed they
found the body of tbe young man lying.
II was cold and it was thought he had
been dead several hours, and had prob

The bed was completely saturated with
blood. as also was some of the furniture
in the room. No explanation could be

ST. LUKE'S PARISH HOUSE
DAMAGED BY WHAT CAME NEAR
BEING A VERY SERIOUS
FIRE
EARLY YESTERDAY MORNING.
Blaze Originated In the Base
mcnt and Worked Up Through the
Walls-The Losses Amount to
$1,000 Fully Covered by Insurance.
A Fireman Painfully Hurt.

At eight O'Clock yesterday morning,
the Florence Brittingham Memorial
chapel Of the st. Luke's church, on the
Island, was discovered to be on fire,
and before the blaze could be extin-
guished the building had been damag-
ed to the amount of about 1880, the
frame work between the walls and
ceiling having been burned out. The
losses are fully covered by insurance.
The fire was first discovered by Miss
Cox, who lives on Ohio street, east of
the chapel. She notified the Rev. ia
cob Birmingham, the pastor of the
church, and he at once hurried to the
building. He made his way to the
Sunday school room. on the second
floor of the building, but could find
only a small blaze, although the room
was filed with smoke. He attempted
to smother this blaze out and was soon
Joined by several men. who had been
attracted by the smoke.
In pulling some plastering from the
wall, they found all beneath to be on
fire and at once turned in an alarm
from box Y. Not until after the ar
rival of the department was the full
extent of the fire discovered. Then
it was found that the blaze had eX-
tended from the furnace in the cellar
up through the walls and across the
ceiling until the entire building was a
net work of fire. The chemicals had
been in use about Is minutes before
the extent of the fire had been discov-
cred and then the water was turned
on. After about an hours work. the
firemen were enabled to %extinguish the
fire by flooding the partitions.
One thing that greatly interferred
with the work of the 1iremen was the
metal ceiling, and in tearing this way
Samuel Thompson. one of the hosemen
of the Atlantic. was struck on the head
by a piece of slate, and was knocked
from the ladder on which he was stand
ing. He sustained a bad scalp wound.
Medical attention was called at once
and yesterday afternoon he was again
able to do duty.
But for the prompt work of the de-
partment the fire would have worked
itself through the partition into the
church. where it would have reached
the organ and the losses would have
been much greater. The fire was one Of
the hardest to get under control that
the department has experienced for
some time and it was the costliest one
that has visited the Island in recent
years.
Miss Kate Meyer, who conducts a
kindergarten in the first floor of the
parish house, has been forced to dis
continue her schools until she IAN Sc
cure other quarters. The Sunday
school tomorrow will be held in the
church.
