Jug" said the observant man,
though it is, from my observation,
very rare to find a man who will
lose control of his legs in cases of
the sort. Crowds, with the excite
ments that 90 along with these
gatherings, the noise and hurry and
all that kind of thing, will make
some men drunk just as readily as
liquor. We have known the same
condition to be brought about by
great heights or distances, in the
dizziness experienced, for instance,
by some person in reaching the top
of high build lgs. Seasickness, in
my judgment, is drunkenness. Have
you ever stood close to railroad
track while passenger train whirl-
ed by at full speed? If you have
YOU can understand fully what | am
trying to tell you. The noise and
swift motion of the train intoxicated
you for the moment, and for the
time being YOU are just about as
drunk as you can be. Rapidly mov-
ing street cars will have the same
effect on some persons. The tenn
perament of the person of course
has much to do with the degree of
drunkenness resulting from these
conditions. The crowd is probably
the most prolific source of drunken
ness of the kind have reference to.
Few persons can escape some sort
of intoXication in a crowd. The
most sedate persons imaginable will
show. the symptoms, and you will
find the condition to exist, no mat
ter what the character of the gath

cause it. We find it in the ball
room. Church gatherings are not
exempt. | have seen preachers, noted
for their Sedate, courtly and dlgnl-
fled bearing, drunk with the excite
ments and fine emotionalism of
some big religious gathering. No
doubt almost every man can recall

ication | have been discussing. -

Good Business.

A story is told Of a man in an
Arkansas town who, in addition to
his being president of the local
board of aldermen, was also the pro-
prietor Of the best hotel in the
place.
1t appears that visitor from the
east one day remarked to this man
that the town might be made good
deal healthier if certain large
swamp near by were drained

and hotel man, "all my boarderS

ton as president of the board of

improvement in minute ef 1t

RIVER PoSTMAN.

II is probable that London has
the distinction Of being the only
port where he ships lying at anchor
are privileged to have their letters
delivered to them by river postmen,
it being customary at other ports
for sailors to apply personally for
their letters unless the ship is IN
dock. The Thames is divided into
two postal districts, each under the
control of river postman, who de-
livers letters and parcels every
morning in craft which resembles
fisher boat more than anything
else. Of these districts the first ex-
tends from the custom house to
Limehouse and the second from
Limehouse to Blackwell. The river
postmen start on their rounds pune
tually at o'clock every morning,
and, needless to say, there is only
one delivery a day.-London Mail.

The Oldest Copper Mine.

The Rio Tinto copper mine, IN
Spain, is the oldest producing mine
in the world perhaps and is still i'm
mensely probable. There is evl-
dence that copper obtained from Its
ore was an article of Phoenician
commerce as early as 400 b. {.
The l~Ae has been worked success
fully by Phocnicians, Celtiberians,
Carthaginlans, Romans, Goths,
Moors, Spaniards and Englishmen.
The ore is copper bearing pyrlte.
Relics found in the mine indicate
Phoenician working, and it is known
that the Romans got out large val
ues. AT present it is owned by IA

from 1898 to 1902 produced 2Oo,-
