FRENCH TEMPERANCE LESSON

II is claimed that. as a result Of the
general consumption OF wine and other
liquors In France, alcoholism is increas-
ing to an alarming degree This Is
probably true For much OF the fluid
consumed there as wine is some vile
stun that cannot but be dlsease-breed-
ing
The French government Is aware OF
the situation, and has therefore sent out
circulars to the people, warning them
against the liquor habit In these circu-
lars alcoholism is defined as chemic
poisoning resulting from the constant
use Of alcohol 1t adds further
"The person drinking every day an
lmmoderate quantity OF wine, mead or
beer will as surely become alcohollzed
as the person who drinks brandy The
so-called aperient drinks (abslnthe, YER
mouth, bitters). the aromatic llqueurs
(yulnerary. spirit with extract OF malls
sa or mint etc) are all most INJURIOUS,
containing not only alcohol but also es-
sences which are just as strong pol
sons
The French government has due APP
probation Of the evils for which drunk
enness is responsible. In the pamphlets
issued It is pointed out that the drink
habit effaces affection for home and
family generates neglect Of duty dis
like for work, begets misery, theft and
other crimes. Not only the most fatal
diseases. II Is said, Of the stomach ana
liver. paralysis, drOpsy and madness are
caused by alcoholism but 1t IL also one
of the most frequent sources Of tuber-
culosls. Alcoholism Is one OF the most
terrible plaques to individual health, the
existence OF the home and the progress
as well as prosperity Of the nation.
There can be no doubt that the drink
evil lo the greatest menace to any ma
ton. In France, where the national
vitality appears to be rather low It's
effects are more noticeable than in ma
tlons with more robust strength, but
the menace is there just the same. Un-
doubtedly from that evil come number
Of crimes, poverty and despair, idiocy,
insanity and numerous other ills. The
proper mode Of campaign against that
demon would be subject worthy the
consideration of the keenest statesmen
Of the world. Phianthropists might
cheerfully devote their millions TO the
warfare against it, provided plan
could be found by which TO overcome
II. 1t does not appear that such a plan
has as yet been devised, for statistics
prove that the consumption of intoxi-
cants increases faster than the popula-
ton, notwithstanding the pledges OF
temperance reformers. This Is strange,
but 1t appears to be the case every
where, In France 1t is claimed that
many artisans will spend "a cents for
strong drink while they spend % cents
for food No wonder that the govern
ment should feel in duty bound to lift
a warning voice. But wise law-giying,
strictly enforced, is what is needed
more than paterhal advice.

STANDS ABUSE
FOR TWO YEARS
Mrs. Seawell Finally Set
Free From Brutal
Husband.
Many Others Seek Relief in
the City's Divorce
Courts.

Judge Hebbard yesterday granted Ada
Seawel a divorce from Frank H SeaweIl
on the ground of drunkenness, wife-beat-
Ing and general brutality. The testimony
was taken before Commissioner ]. T. Ty-
Ter. and the hearing was liberal. The
findings show defendant in the light of
wife-beater. and on those findings the
ties Of matrimony were severed.
The testimony was that from the date
Of their wedding, March 8, 1901, the de-
PENDANT began a fendish career Of chok-
ing and beating. He throttled her, struck
her and dragged her upstairs. At Sac
ramento, where they went on visit, he
came home brutally drunk and chased
his bride about with a pistol. At Heads
burg the same experience confronted the
wife. At another time, when they lived
in a clearinghouse in San Francisco,
Seawell ran after the woman he had
sworn to protect, brandishing q razor,
and she took refuge in the room Of a
woman friend, as she was afraid Of be-
ing killed.
Once when she was cooking dinner he
came home drunk and struck her, almost
knocking her down. Numerous witnesses
of the different assaults gave testimony on
the subject, and the Judge at once set
her free.
Albert Cirimele wants to be divorced
from Mary Cirimele on grounds of cruelty
and desertion. He alleges that they were
married April 2S, 1902. and three weeks
afterwards she commenced to abuse him
in an outrageous manner before his
friends, calling him vile names. He states
that once she brandished knife and
threatened to kill him and told him to
pack his things and leave the house for
ever, as she would not occupy the status
Of wife to him any more. He alleges that
in order to further humiliate him she
went to work in a cannery, although he
was able to and did provide beautifully
for her, even going so far as to give her
all Of his wages. and she now refuses to
admit him to her house and also refuses
to come to him.
May F. Stein wants to be released from
ties that bind her to Charles NJ. Stein
on the ground of extreme cruelty. She
| alleges that he has frequently struck her
with his fist and knocked her down and
has used obscene language, too vile to be
set down in her complaint. She wants
the custody of her baby, Charles Stein,
and SIS per month alimony.
Laura G.. Smith wants divorce from
Robert H. Smith on the ground of deser-
! ton. He left her on September Is, 1899,

Another curiously Irish phenomenon:
This region in Connemara keeps up its
population, while the people are flying
rapidly from the best lands in Ireland
For example. the population Of Muck
naghederdauhaulia has remained prac-
tically the same since 1881. while that Of
Navan Union, in Meath. which has a val
some of the best land in the United King
dom. has diminished by nearly 20 per cent
In the same period. This is no isolated
accident but strong example of state
of things which is general throughout the
country, graduated according to the re-
sources. The people multiply on misery,
and fly from wealth throughout agricul-
tural Ireland from one end to the other.
disappearing people have long looked
on the English language as means to
emigrate, and many have learned 1t main
ly for that purpose. In accurate proper
ton as the English language has spread
in the west and south. the population has
diminished; and this is particularly no
ticeable in the various districts of Come
mara, where the priests tell me thai the
main cause of the population not falling
is that the people have known Irish only.
In like manner education is regarded as a
means of escape to some other country,
and so widely established is this idea that

KNIGHT Of ROAD
STILL OPERATING
Golden Gate Park Is the
Scene Of Another
Daring Holdup.
Samuel Irving Saves Coin by
Strategy and Suspect
Is Arrested.

Samuel Irving, a well known insurance
broker residing at 1918 Suffer street. is
the latest victim of the knight of the
mask and pistol who has been operating
In Golden Gate Park, and It was due to
his presence of mind that the robber did
not secure anything of value.
The audacious crime took place last
evening shortly after 8 o'clock within a
stones throw of the Park Police Station.
and few minutes afterward Frederick
M Sweet, a clerk employed in a hotel
conducted by Mrs. Friend at S07 California
street, was taken into custody
The hold-up occurred on the bridge on
the south drive directly opposite the
Hatght-street entrance to the park while
irving was on his way to visit Superin-
tendent McLaren at the Park Lodge. AS
he passed the bridge a man wearing a
white mask and holding in his hand an
ominous looking revolver stepped out from
clump of bushes and commanded Irving
to deliver his valuables.
Irving at first thought of giving up his
purse, but on second thought decided to
use a little strategy, so he threw his
matchbox on the road. AS the footpad
stopped to pick up what he thought was a.
purse Irving suddenly darted toward the
path leading to Stanyan street In his
excitement he came in contact with a
d
laceration of the left hand. He continued
on his way, however, and meeting Patrol
men Williams and Anderson notified them
of the affair. The officers Immediately
returned to the scene and instituted a
search for the criminal.
Frederick NJ. Sweet, the man In custody,
was found near the scene and the fact
that he could not give a satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION of his movements and that a
! loaded revolver was found in his possess
sion warranted the officers taking him
into custody Sweet maintains that he is
not guilty and claims that he had been
visiting an acquaintance who resides on
the south side of the park and was on his
way to the cars when arrested.
Inquiry at the boarding house conduct
ed by Mrs. Friend at 307 California street
ELECTED the information that Sweet was
employed there in the capacity of a clerk
and has always borne IAN excellent repu-
j tation. Owing to the excitement of the
situation Irving could not give a clear
description of the man with the gun, but
will be given an opportunity to-day to
/ identify the suspect.
