Some days ago eX-United States.
Senator John B. Henderson, of Mis-

who are now residents Of Washington
City, were sponsors for a,rrem arkable,
incident that, has since elected wide

The Hendersons are. .personages Of
high position in social, political and
financial circles, bothin America and.
Europe. They own a magnificent res
idence in the national capital, and
have been noted for their lavish enter.
tainments. In the entertainment of
friends and celebrities they set
forth the choicest wines, and liquors
that ample wealth could command,
But they were abstainers themselves.
Recently they have taken open and
active interest in the temperance work

wine cellar and emptied from it into
the cutters every drop of the costly
booze they had obtained from all
countries. The sacrificed stuff repre-
sented several thousands of dollars.
This has been a much-criticised
transaction, and many of the critics
have suggested Judas-like ways in
which the Hendersons could have bet

squared their deed to their profession
