ABSTINENCE AND LONGEVITY.
su ow ABSTINENCE PAYS is til

al OW ABSTINENCE. PAYS" is the
IL title Of a little pamphlet re-
ceived recently by The Herald. The
author attempts to show. and he does
show. that abstinence from intoxicants
pays higher dividends in health, wealth
and happiness tLan any other form of
self-denial. Especially interesting are
the mortuary tables taken from the
report of life insurance actuary who
has made a careful study of the sub
ject. Comparisons are made. not be-
tween excessive drinkers and total alb
stainers, for excessive. drinkers cannot
secure life insurance. but between total
abstainers and moderate drinkers.
The table shows. for the cases fnves-
tigated. that the deaths among moder-
ate drinkers between the ages of 20
and 80 years We're heavier by Il per
cent than among the total abstainers.
Between 80 and 40 years of age the diff
ference in favor of tie total abstain
ers were IS per cent Between 40 and
so the difference was "A per cent. still
in favor Of the abstainers. Between 80
and so the abstainers were II PEI. cent
better of, and between so and 20 the
difference was 10 per cent.
The figures show conclusively. there
fore, that the man who drinks not at
all has a far better chance>to arrive at
mature years than the man who drinks
moderately. The small percentage of
difference between the ages of 20 and
50 years is accounted for that the habit
Of drinking, even in moderation. can
hardly be said to be fixed until after
the individual has passed the age of 50
years. But even then there was a diff
ference.
It will be generally conceded. we be-
lieve, that the average mans period Of
real usefulness and influence, his great
est capacity for work. lies between the
ages of 30 and So years. 1t win be noted
that the average of deaths of nom
drinkers during those years is 81 Is
per cent less than among the moderate
drinkers. Thar is to say. out of every
100 deaths of men between the ages OF
50 and 90 years, something like sixty
three are moderate drinkers and thirty
seven are total abstainers, a proper
ton of not far from two to one.
There are enough other reasons why
men should not drink at all. but these
figures are more Illuminating than any
thing of the kind We have recently
come across.

FiQht.

Toxic. Aug. 22.-After a severe en-
gagement with the protected cruisers
Chitose and Tsushima, the greyhounds
of the japanese navy, the fleet Rus
sian cruiser Novik has been van
quished. The fight occurred yester
day. After it the Novik. in a sinking
condition. was run ashore in Korsa-
kovsk harbor on the island of Sakha-
lin.
The details Of the sea fight are not
known here, but it is evident that the
Chitose and Tsushima caught up with
the Novik yesterday and that a run
ming fight ensued.
The contest was resumed and term
minated early this morning. Captain
Sukeichiro Takashi, who is in com
mand of the Chitose, reports the en-
gagement in brief telegram which
reached the Navy Department here
this afternoon. He says he first at
tackled the Russian cruiser Saturday
afternoon and that on Sunday morn
ing he inflicted heavy damage on
her.
The Novik nearly sank and she was
beached at korsakovsk. A shell from
the Novik struck the Tsushima in
bunker Temporary repairs, however,
rendered the Japanese cruiser sea-
worthy, and she continued to fight.
The Japanese suffered no casualties.

Shanghai. August 21.-Shanghai was

She passed Woosung at full speed and

The United States torpedo boat de-

and followed the Japanese destroyer.
The Japanese boat was cleared for &C
ton. She anchored off the Cosmo.

Askold is undergoing repairs. The
Chauncey came to anchor practically
between the dock and the Japanese de-
stroyer.

seen a Japanese battleship and two
cruisers sixty miles outside of Woo
sung.
There are at present no Chinese men

Immediately. The Russian consul gen
eTal here fatty refused to disarm the
Askold and the Russian torpedo boat
destroyer Grozovoi, or to order them to
leave the harbor.
The taotai has notified American
Consul Goodnow, who is dean of the
consular body, that China cannot pro-
tect the foreign settlements. He con-
tends that Russia ignores the orders
issued by China and that China has no
means Of making her obey them.
Consul Goodnow has called a meet
ing of the consular body to take joint
action for the protection of foreign in
terests. The Askold has locked ad-
iacent to the warehouses of the
Standard Oil Company, which are
valued at over 81 100000. The Stand
