pRuNkARDs' EXCUSE GONE.
Insbriety Il an Acquired. Not Heredi-
tary, Disease.

, Insbricty II an Acquired, Not = Hercdi-
tary, Disease.
The drunkard can no longer lay his
inebriety to bibulous ancestors. The
man who drinks to excess cannot
claim public Indulgence on the theory
that he inherited taste for alcoholic
stimulants from his parents. A crav-
Ing for drink, in fact. cannot be trans.
mitted from parents to children.
These are the conclusions of com.
mittee on inebriety selected by the
London Medical Society to investigate
the relation of heredity to inebriety.
The committee was composed of Ave
physicians, two surgeons, professor
Of bacteriology, an army surgeon and
fve general practitioners. After
eighteen months Of investigation OF all
phases of drunkenness under all sorts
of conditions and environments the
committee has made report which
completely upsets many of the favorite
notions Of temperance reformers and
sociologists.
II man having no inborn tendency
to excess, yet acquires drunken habits,
his progeny are no more in danger
than are those of his neighbor. says
the report. The whole question of
drunkenness is matter of environ.
ment and an innate capacity to enjoy
the exhilaration that comes from alco-
holic indulgence. 1t is not denied that
drunken parents who become thus
mentally and physically weak are liza
BILE to have children weak In body and
feeble in mind. But instances Of in
ebriated fathers having sons who
found no pleasure in alcoholic indul-
gence are numberless.

The peculiarities of the Cocopas, a
queer tribe of savages living in the
valley Of the Colorado river in Lower
California and Mexico, have been
brought to light by Professor MCGEE Of
Washington, who has returned from q
visit to that part of the country. He
describes them to the Washington
Star:
I supposed they were fishing peo-
pie. living 80 near the gulf. found
them essentially agricultural, cultivat-
ing corn, beans. peas and squashes,
and locating their farms according to
the caprice Of the floods. They pro-
fessed to be inimical to the Mexican
government, and to be anxious to
move to the United States. The Coco
pas are Of fine physique. and the men
are tall and robust. measured one
and found him to stand six feet three
inches. Their skins are dark. They
have very large feet, notable for the
fact that the middle toes are invari-
ably the longest. saw the big fellow
I measured run barefooted over q
patch Of sharp stubble left by the
stalks OF the cattail flag which had
been burned. His feet were not hurt
in the least. It was common to see
the men come to our camp fire and
poke the Goals with their naked toes.
One fellow had thus burned all his toe
nails black, although his feet were
otherwise uninjured. The toes of these
people are remarkable for their nim-
bleness. I saw one man pick up a hot
coal with his foot to light his cigarette.
Another. walking along the road, thus
clutched a stick which he wished to
use for cane. / gave child lump
. of sugar. He dropped 1t. But the nimble
toes caught 1t up and brought 1t to his
hand. Upon the death of one Of the
tribe his kinsmen all cut their hair to
= shortness proportionate to the re-
lationship Of each Of the deceased. The
property Of the dead man is given to
different members of the tribe, never
to the relatives. This is to prevent
disputes as to ownership. The house
having been deprived OF the valuables.
the corpse is permitted to remain with
In while fuel Is collected and q fire
kindled underneath. Thus each mans
house becomes his funeral pyre. All
the Cocopas paint their faces and are
more or less tattooed. The foreheads
Of the men are tattooed with circles
or xigzag marks. Upon marrying, the
women must be tattooed with various
designs. When Cocopa girl is ready
to take husband hole is dug in tho
ground and in 1t Is built fire, kept
burning until the surrounding earth
is thoroughly warmed. The fire Is
then extinguished and the bride elect
placed In the pit. She LIS buried to her
neck. and In this condition 10 left
standing until morning. After being
dug out the next morning. she Is sup
posed to be ready for the duties and
trials Of matrimony. This would seem
to be reasonable suppositlon.
