OPPOSED TO ALCOHOL.
Hard Things Said About It at Church
Temperance Society Meeting.
l Correspondence of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
LONDON, May 90 1905.
1t is useless for alcohol to go to Sir Fred
erick Treves for a character. He said the
following hard things about it at meet
ing of the Church of England Temperance
Society at the Church House, Westminster,
Wednesday:
ut is distinctly a poison, and the limita-
ton of its use should be strict that
of any other kind of poison
1T is, moreover, an insidious poison, pro-
ducng effects for which the only antidote
is alcohol again.
1T is not an appetizer and even in small
quantities it binders digestion.
Its stimulating effect only lasts for
moment, and after it has passed the capac-
ity for work fails enormously.
1T brings UP the reserve forces of the
body and throws them into action. with the
result that when they are used up there Is
nothing to fall back upon.
"On the march to Iadysmith the sol
diers who were drinkers fell out as though
they We're labeled.
THE use of alcohol is inconsistent with
work which requires quick keen and alert
judgment"
Sir Frederick said that the use of al
among professional men who work hard
during the day.
He concluded his address with the follow
ing emphatic words:
Il have spent the greater part of my life
in the operating ROOM and l can assure you
that there are some persons l do not mind
operating upon and others that l do, but
the person of all others / dread to see
terins the operating theater is the drunk

FRESH-AIR PIPES.
Supply Can Be Furnished by Use Of
New Device.
Special Correspondence Of The Star.


Special Correspondence OF The Star.
SYDNEY. N. s. W., May 90 1905
According to a scheme patented by James
Robinson. a Sydney business man. the day
may come when every household will have
fresh air supplied In pipes, in much the
same way as gas and water are now dis
tributed.
The apparatus consists of a captive bal
loon or a series of balloons with a tube of
aluminium communicating with a reservoir
on the earth. The reservoir will be kept
gions by means of a suction fan. This air
can be subsequently distributed in pipes to
those willing to pay for it. That at any
rate, is the theory.
The idea also covers the supply of oxygen
for the treatment of patients suffering from
consumption or anaemia. A further notion
is to fill bags with high level air for use in
sick rooms, Just at present seltZogenes
are filled with soda water; and 1t is even
suggested that fresh air. depots should be
established where people could drop in for
breathe"
This would, it is claimed be more effectual
than dropping into public house for a
drink
The inventor has submitted his plans to
local doctors and engineers. The doctors
agree as to the great hygienic value of air
obtained in the way suggested, but doubt
the feasibility of the scheme. The engi-
neers. however, do not seem to think 1t i'm
practicable.
The government has been asked to test
the idea. with a view to it's being adopted as
a state enterprise

FOUND HIS HOUSE EMPTY.
Young Wife Left, Taking All Goods
and Chattels,

Special Correspondence OF The Star
PARIS May %, 1905.
Entering his house for dinner last We'd
nesday. Stephen Boytard, an elderly clerk
living in the ST. Cervais quarter of Paris
was thunderstruck to find 1t empty On
the table lay note from his young wife
announcing that she had formed an at
tachment for some one younger and richer
that she had gone away with him and
would never return.
1t was only a few months ago that the
unhappy man was married to the seven
teen-year-old daughter of his concierge he
himself being fftyfive years of age.
Plunged into despair he resolved to take
his life. and purchasing a piece of stout
cord wandered out into the street In search
of a suitable place to hang himself In
the Rue de Rivof he noticed an unfinished
house and entering passed the cord round
his neck and looked for a projection to
which the other end could be fastened
Suddenly he saw in the gloom, only a few
feet ahead, human body swinging to and
fro.
Without pausing to speculate the would
be suicide cut the rope from which the
body hung. and after few minutes hard
work succeeded in restoring life. Instead
OF thanks. however. Boytard received vol
ley of abuse from the man whose life he
had saved, who wanted to know why he
could not mind his own business.
The injured husband soothed him. and on
comparing notes they found that they had
sustained the same misfortune. Forthwith
they repaired to an adjacent wine shop to
drown their sorrows.
When midnight arrived both men were
drunk and, the impulse Of suicide seized
them again. Staggering toward the Seine

SENT TO JAIL.
Lovelorn Woman Threatened Former
Sweetheart.


Special Correspondence of The Star.
PARIS, May 20, 1905.
A lovelorn. middle-aged woman was this
week sentenced to six months imprison-
ment for having preferred murderous
threats against chemist who married
new love two years ago.
At the trial the young wife said that
ever since her marriage her life had been
made miserable by the persecution to which
her husbands old flame subjected her.
She had threatened to pour vitriOl over
him and his wife and to kdnap their baby.
Several of the woman's love letters were
produced.
II do love you still, all the same, and
that is my accursed luck. 1 am much
worse than the ivy green, which dies
when it has grown. The older 1 get the
ways and forever, come what may"
In another she asked for money:
u never. never meant to ask you for
any more" she told the beloved chemist
one Easter Monday but 1t Is a curious
thing that 1 always just happen to be hard
up on a bank holiday. You know l only
write because 1 can't help myself. 1 pour
my heart out on paper and then 1 feel
better. Always your poor old girl, who
is very, very miserable, and sends you, all
the same, good kiss"
The court took pity on the lOvelorn, mid
dle-aged lady, and, while sentencing her
to six months Imprisonment. allowed her
the benefit of the first offenders act,
which, with good behavior, may shorten
her incarceration.

Death Of Paul Detot.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
PARIS, May 90 1905.
The death of Paul Detot the former
senior official shorthand reporter of the
chamber of deputies. recalls the fact that
he might have worn the red ribbon of the
Legion of Honor in his buttonhole these
many years past If he had not lost it at
cards. He was playing ecarte with Spul-
Ter at a time when the latter held cabinet
office minister of public instruction and
fine arts Spuller told Detot that he had
proposed him for the cross of the Legion
of Honor and that his nomination would
shortly appear in the Official Gazette. De-
tot, an eccentric, had whimsical idea and
cried, Il will play you for it in five
points did so and lost. Spuller thus had
an extra cross to dispose of, and Detot,
true to his word. never claimed the deco
ration which was to have been his and
which he had gambled away. He often
told the anecdote and was rather proud Of
it than otherwise
