authorities at $15,770,240 That was
half century ago; and few people
will dispute that Americans drank
quite as much distilled liquor as was
good for them then.
The value of distilled liquors manu-
featured in the United States in 1900
is estimated by the census authori-
ties at a total of $96,79S, 445-more
than six times the amount reported
as made in this country fifty years
ago. AS the exports for distilled IL
quors for 1900 are reckoned at only
81, 1888, sos, it is evident that the Amer
lean people have been drinking the
remainder of the increased supply
themselves. Draw the moral to suit
your own taste.
Fact No. 2-The total value of malt
liquors made in this country in 1850,
as reported by the census authorities
was $5,728,5
The total value of malt liquors
manufactured in 1900 is estimated at
$237 ,269 ,713-more than 40 times the
amount manufactured here only fifty
years ago. Or to put it in another
way and reduce the time of the com
parison, it is estimated that in 1870
6.574,617 barrels of malt liquor were
manufactured; in 1880, 13.347 iii
barrels-more than twice as much;
and for 1890, the total was 27,561, 944
having more than doubled again;
and for 1900, 39,33O,849 barrels. In
other words, the amount manufac
tured had increased just about six
fold in 80 years, and the value had in
creased more than 40 times in sc
years. Or to sum it up in the Ian
guage of the bulletin:
From the reports of breweries
and distilleries and wineries repre-
senting the three classes of alcoholic
liquors, it appears that 1,19S, 602, 104
gallons of malt liquors, 103,330, AZ;
gallons of wine were manufactured
during the census year ending MAY
| 81, 1900. In estimating the annua
consumption for 1900, the quantit!
of tax paid spirits, not the qualit,
manufactured, was employed, and thu
differences between imports and do
nestle and foreign exports were con
sidered On this basis the total est
mated consumption for the census
year was 1922, 166, 6S5 gallons, o
1913 gallons per capita"
Doesn't it look as if the fellow
who would take measures to reduc
the consumption of alcoholic bevel
ages in the United States have som
cause for sounding an alarm?

AUTOS BARRED OUT.
Interior Department Will Not Allow
Machines in Wonderland.


Eastern Automobiles are reported
to be considerably worked up over
the decision of the interior depart
ment not to allow automobiles to be
run through the park. Injury to the
roads as well as the possibility of
frightening horses and perhaps caus-
ing loss of life are given as the rea-
sons for barring the machines from
Wonderland
A Washington dispatch says: "As
mark of the progress of events it
is interesting to note that the depart
ment of the interior has ordered that
automobiles be excluded from Vel
lowstone park. Several applications
have been made, as the roadways are
in fine form for the auto cars. Uncle
Sam is spending over $150,000 year
on these thoroughfares. But tour
lists are many and the owners of
horses fear that a meeting between a
horse and an automobile in a narrow
passage on the mountain side would
cause a disaster, and they nave SO
pictured the situation to the honora-
BILE secretary of the interior. The
enthusiasts feel hurt over this order
of exclusion, asserting that the gov
eminent is obstructing the progress
of civilization; they hold that the
horses would soon get used to the
machines, as they do in Central park
New York, and In Washington and
in many other cities"

What Does 1t Mean?

Temperance talk isn't popular-at
least among the fellows who need it
most, But surely it is permissible,
isn't it, to state few facts taken
from bulletin received this month
from the census bureau of the United
States? People who don't like to
hear anything about temperance
comfortable people who don't enjoy
being reminded now and then that
alcohol is responsible for so many di-
vorces, so many fights, so many
thefts, so many clImes, so many muir
GERS, so many ruined homes-these
people can take the figures and draw
the morals to suit themselves; and
they will please remember that the
facts as stated are not taken from a
rabid temperance document, but
from cold and bloodless census bull
letin.

CORN WINE FOR THE PRINCE.
First Acquaintance of the Kaiser's
Brother and Suite with Ken
lucky whisky.

Those who are struggling back to
Washington from the Prince Henry
tour have a few good stories. One
perience, says the Commercial-T Trib-
une.
As the train was pulling out of
Cincinnati Admiral Evans approached
the princes car, where he was chat
ting with members of his suite and
others, with two fat bottles under
his arm. The American sailor said:
'ln this, the Queen City Of the West,
] have been able to secure two fine
bottles of the real American drink"
There was shown Immediately the
greatest interest on the part of the
Germans. They asked many ques-
tiOns, and "Fighting Bob" gave a
wonderful lot of information. He
said that, so far as general use was
concerned. the word whisky was not
understood. He said it was applied
to almost any liquor, red in color,
distilled from grain.
But the corn wine, the real Amer
shape right here in Kentucky" he
went on enthusiastically. This is
the American drink, and I want his
royal highness to have a good drink
on its native soil"
An order was given and a servant
brought out large tumblers. Admiral
Evans opened the bottles himself
and filled each tumhler brimming
full. Some slipped it, some took
great gulps. and the sailor continued
to tell of the merits of the great
American drink. The Germans tired
pretty hard to finish their great tum-
blers of whisky, but finally gave it
up, and the sailor man let them off
with good laugh for their grave eff
forts. Water was ordered, and the
prince paid the proper compliment
to the great American drink.

appearing.

The whole race of Germans is
gradually being transformed from a
round-shouldered, fat people into
straight and sinewy soldiers, and this
has been entirely due to hard mill
tary discipline, says Stray Stories.
The face of the German is altering.
too, and to-day the prominent chin,
which is so characteristic of the aver
age Prussian, was unknown in the
days of Frederick the Great. The
height of the men has gradually been
diminishing since 1851, but this is
made up for by the increase in mus
Gle and strength.
In the fifteenth century curly hair
was the rule in England; to-day lanl1
and straight hair is almost universal.s =
Our facial tendency. which has
been noted by Prof. Mantegazza as
characteristic of the English of both
sexes, is the great length of the
nose, accompanied by nose straight
ness. AquiIine noses, which were
exceedingly common in the eigh-
teenth century, are becoming rarer
in Great Britain.
Owing to the constant infusion of
Swiss and Alsatian blood, Frenchmen
are gradually growing lighter of hair
and complexion. The habit of drink
ing beer in preference to wine is also
said to be influencing the physique
and facial tint of the Gallic race.
In Japan it has been observed with
growing astonishment that ever since
the adoption, 30 years ago, of Euro
pean customs and costumes western
ization of the physiognomy of the
Japanese has been going ON.
