AduItcratfng French Wines.
Correspondence London Chronicle.

Although the. wines OF France are so
plentiful and cheap, the startling announce
ment Is made by the municipal laboratory
that adulteration of every kind has in
creased. The growers being unable to sell
yintages that win not keep, are obliged to
use serum, which diminishes the sourness,
put Is fruitful as source of kidney trouble.
The popular opinion that white wine is be-
yond the reach of adulteration is, 1t ap-
pears, a fallacy. As the first product is
nearly rose-colored, a compound of bisul-
pnate OF soda or potassium Is used to give
a Chapils or Graves tint, which, according
to medical opinion, produces cirrhosis OF
the the liver.

A Ranch Spread.

From the Criterion.
The chuck wagon" under the supervis-

day conveyed the camp outfit to cool
spot under a clump of cottonwoods. A
clear little stream flowed lazily along be-
tween the cottonwoods and the box elders
which, with the fresh, flower-laden breath
of the plains in their faces, and the inspir-
ing works of nature about them caused
the guests Of the cow-punchers to forget
for the time the dust and heat and turmoil
of the town.
And such a dinner, Ranchers know a
good thing and name 1t accordingly, though
the result is often fearful and wonderful
commingling Of slang. localisms and for

lation card would appal the fastidious and
tax the knowledge of the most learned col
lege professor. There were "frijoles''
(beans), and only such beans as one gets
at ranch; there were fry and its in
evttable dope which translated mean

In approving Mr.. Maclay's history of
the Santiago naval battle and Indirect
~ confirming all the bitter things
which that history says about Admiral
Schley, Admiral Sampson seems to
have imperiled whatever halo of hero
ism he may have had. For a large
number of American citizens, who
know little or nothing about naval
maneuvers, but who have fixed ideas
as to ordinary civility and fair play,
this is SIMPSONS finish. The gravity
OF the charges made by implication
against Admiral Schley by his former
superior officer is shown in the follow
ing extracts from the third volume of
Maclay's history:
In his report about the coal supply
Of the vessels under his command,
Schley exhibited either a timidity
amounting to absolute cowardice or a
prevarication of facts that was intrin-
sically falsehood.' (Vol. ILL.,, p. 1861
"Schley on May %, 1898,
turned in caitiff flight from the dan
ger spot towards which duty, honor,
and the whole American people were
most earnestly urging him. Viewed in
whatever light it may be, the fore
going dispatch cannot be characterized
otherwise than as being without ex-
ception, the most humiliating, cow
ardly and lamentable report ever
penned by an American naval officer"
(Vol ILL.,, p. 29S.)
Let the Texas take care of her

shameful spectacle of an American
warship, supported by force superior

! mander had expended such vast guam
Titles of ammunition in target practice
in the presence of a fashionable hotel
at Hampton Roads in order to meet
worthy foe-deliberately turning tail
and running away was presented"
(Vol. I'LL, p. 364.)
"Schley was perfectly willing to
avoid blanketing the fire of the Ameri-
can warships, even at the risk of dis
astrous collision with the Texas, so
long as he could escape getting too
close to danger. Schley's
contribution to naval strategy, as too
| plainly shown by his conduct through
out this campaign, was Avoid your
enemy as long as possible. and. if he
makes for y-u. run" (Vol ILL.,, p.
1861
The public is thoroughly sick of this
controversy, but the latest incident
more than anything else which has
gone before will tend to fix upon Ad-
miral Sampson the less creditable part
in the squabble. Schley, at least, has
not openly countenanced vituperation.

Health and Intellect.

1t is somewhat surprising that the
gentlemen who make a study of peda
gogics should attach so much import
ance to the discovery that certain nor
NAL school students having a high
physical development did not pass the
test for mental qualifications by bet
ter average than that of ~ marks out
of 100. 1t would appear that there has
been an effort to deduce from the fact
the conclusion that condition of fine
physical health is detrimental to the
best mental development.
Taking the converse of this PROPOSE
ton, the student who was in the poor
est physical trim ought to be the
brightest. In reality the fact that 800
applicants for cadetships in the public
schools were exceptionally healthy in
body and yet did not meet the exami-
nation tests very brilliantly means
nothing, The conditions for fair
test, were 1t possible to establish them.
would be to take a body of students
OF inferior physique. train them into
fine bodily condition and submit them
to mental tests both before and after
their physical regeneration.
