town of Treguier, Brittany, serious dem
onstrations were made against Premier

There were also hostile outcries in the
villages through which his carriage pass

DEADLY LIQUER HABIT
English Women Going 10 Ex-
cess Drinking.
STIMULATE TOO FREQUENT
London Newspapers Criticise
Them Severely.

London. Sept. Questionable women's
clubs in the West End are very much ex-
ercised just now over a subject that one
of the newspapers has labelled The Dead
ly Liqueur." 1t all started from state
ment in the London World that the habit
among women of indulging in what are
commonly called ''cordials'' is growing at
a rapid rate.
Idleness is alleged by the World to be
the predisposing cause of a growing in
diligence of young married women, espe-
cially OF the upper classes, in alcoholic
drinks Coffee and liqueurs figure at sup
pers after the play and at luncheon par
ties, however simply planned The girl in
her first season nowadays, says this jour-
nal, thus drinks her benedictine or creme
de menthe perhaps three times daily. The
young married woman takes her whiskey
and aerated water as a matter Of course,
whereas her grandmother would have
consumed spirits, coram popul, with
many apologies.
In answer to this the secretary of one
of the largest women's clubs declares en-
phatically that in her own experience
among 100 members there is no sign of
excessive liquor drinking and that it
would be considered the height of bad
form for any lady to order liqueur at
any time other than at luncheon or dinner.
a correspondent of one of the London
newspapers has interviewed a number Of
wine merchants, who agree that a great
deal more liqueur is sold now than there
was three years ago. Mr.. Autor. mana
ger of the Carlton Hotel however de-
clares in his experience. the consump-
ton of chartreuse, benedictine and creme
de menthe has remained in the same
proportion for fifteen years.
1T is ridiculous to speak of women
drinking more liqueurs," he said. There
has been no change. The proportion of
women who take liqueurs is quite small.
for in a party of five or six you will sell
dom find more than one or two taking a
liqueur after their coffee"
The truth of the statement that women
are in the habit of drinking whiskey and
soda is admitted in the womens clubs,
and that it is a growing practice is not
denied II is ascribed, however. to the ad-
vice of West End physicians. who rec
ommend this form of alcoholic stimulant
instead of the cheap French wines pre-
viously drunk by women.

signal victory over Hyde Park en-
July 4 led the boys to expect. How

bridge won by punched hits and su-
perior infeld work. Morrisville hit
all the time, but to no advantage,
everything being handled by their
opponents. Numerous plays of the
star variety were in evidence, chief of
which was the one-handed stop by
Melvin. The battery work for Morris,
vile was frst-class, Parker striking
out eleven men during the game.
