DEFENSE OF LIQUOR
DR.. VOelckner Condemns the
Anti-licenSe Movement.
BELIEVES IN TEMPERANCE
Head of German Societies Thinks
Enforced Prohibition an Infringe
Beer Goes. He Says, Coffee and Tea
Also Should Be Restricted.

I'VE have always praeticed true tenn
Perance, and will continue to do so; We
demonstrate it by our lives and by our
work. Temperance. however, does not
mean total abstinence OF prohibition. We
are against prohibition, because it does
not prohibit. and mainly because it is an
interference in ones personal liberty; we
are against total abstinence. because Il Is
unnatural and a forced condition"
The above statement expresses the views
of DR. Kurt Voelckner president of the
| United German Societies, of this city, on
the desire OF the w. c. T. U. 10 force pro
hibition on the District Of Columbia.
through Congress. at the coming session,
IF prohibition is Of such a beneficial
nature for mankind in general" DIT.
Voelckner continued, how is il that the
foremost men of the nation have not ad-
vocated the adoption Of prohibitory laws
throughout the United States? I chal-
/ lenge the prohibition forces 10 name one
man. that has accomplished something
worth while for the benefit Of the coun-
try, who was a professed prohibitionist.
Furthermore, I challenge the total alb
stinence adherents TO name one truly
great man who has said that prohibition
was beneficial to the country.
Coffee Harmful as Beer.
"A properly conducted saloon is safer
guard against the spreading of drunken
ness than prohibition. The former can he
supervised while the latter creates the
speak-easy. If the W. c. T. L. says it's
right that the use of beer should be pro
hibited, because it contains poison and is
dangerous, as they claimed, why should
not the use of coffee and tea be prohibited
for similar reasons? There are many
coffee and tea drinkers In the W. G. T. L.
Coffee and tea contain poison, and are
injurious to the system, If they are taken
in excess. Just the same with beer and
everything else. II would be absurd 70
prohibit coffee and tea because some Of
the members Of the w. c. T. Z. are ex-
the children To be temperate in all things
and prohibition viii not be necessary
''The taxes In Kansas and Maine and
other States where prohibition is in force
are the same as they were when the sa-
ness. The number Of policemen has not
decreased, neither have the inmates OF
jails and pOOrhouses.
In Fight for Justice.
''It is a matter of principle with our
society and the German-American Al
lance this arraying OF our forces
against the advocates of prohibition in
the District Of Columbia. The Woman $
! Christian Temperance Union cannot
charge US with drunkenness and crime,
/ and ii is because we think that all pro-
| hibitiOn legislation curtails the personal
! liberty of the citizens that we are against
the prohibition movement. 1t Is the main
purpose Of the Germap-American Al
lance and the United German societies
of this city 20 demonstrate the best citi-
zenship and to fight for the rights and
privileges and liberty guaranteed by the
Constitution OF the United States"

PRESS CLIPPINGS

A few years ago soft coal cost 80. IS
delivered in Golden. Two raises of
25 cents each brought it to a. 25 per
ton, which price has been the com,
mon one the past few years. Seeing
that everyone was so prosperous the
past year the coal dealers raised the
price another two bits on the first.
and from now on you will pay $3.50.
Nothing like combination these days.

Occasionally men tire of their home
in the Grand valley. The apples and
peaches don't grow large enough, the
sun shines too hot and great many
other things add to their discomforts.
Tnen they sell their orchard, rush off
to California in search of the perfect
place to live in. In the winter they
suffer from the rains and mud; in the
summer from f1eas and heat that are
twice as annoying as anything of a
like nature here Then a longing
comes to them for the valley of sun
shine once more, and they would give
almost all they have in the world to
once more see the old orchard laden
with the big red apples hanging so
profusely on the trees. Grand June

Three Tombs Mt Westminster.


In the east walk of the cloisters at
Westminster abbey there are three
most interesting graves-those OF
Thomas Betterton and his wife, better
known as Bess Saunderson, and the
ever fascinating Mrs. Bracegirdle OF
all the people who lie within these hal
lowed walls it may safely be said that
Betterton has the best claim of all to
this privilege. No small measure Of
praise must be accorded to this gifted
actor for the fact that he almost more
than any one else was responsible for
the resuscitation of the English drama
after the stern regime of the Puritans.
Mrs. Bracegirdle was either adopted by
Betterton or placed under his care, and
she very soon took all hearts in Lon.
don by storm. She achieved her great.
est success In acting In Congreve's
plays. Her artistic career, however,
was a comparatively short one, for
Mrs. Bracegirdle retired from the
stage In dudgeon when Anne OIdfield
Arst became her dangerous rival. She
lived on In honorable retirement and
beloved by all, high and low, far and
near, until the year 174s, when she was
buried here beside her old friends the

venu. Among the Incas.

The only planet which the Incas had
discovered was Venus, which they
called the hairy on account of the
brightness of its rays. They said that,
being the most brilliant of the stars,
the sun would not permit 1t to be sep
arated from him and obliged it to attend
his rising as well as his going down,
Just as at the courts of kings only the
most distinguished lords and the hand
soonest ladies' were admitted to the GER
emonious royal risings and retirings.
1t appears nearly certain that the In
cas- spoke Of Venus under two different
names, according as it preceded or fol-
lowed the sun. To this day the native
Peruvians name 1t in fanciful language
the eight hour torch and the twilight
lamp. As this star served to show the
Indians when 1t was time to prepare
the maize for cooking, they also gave it

Hew Dreams Arc Weighed.

An ingenious instrument which dem
onstrates the close connection that ex.
lists between dreams and brain calcula.
ton is known as the "1lt board" A
long, shallow tray big enough for
man to recline upon is balanced exact,
ly upon a steel blade. A subject is
placed upon it and put to sleep, where
upon the end containing his feet gen
orally falls. But eventually the subject
begins to dream, and then the tray con-
talning the sleeper's feet reascends, the
extent to which It moves varying ac-
eording to the vividness of the dream
The explanation is that the blood
leaves the brain Of a sleeper directly
the mental activities cease and, the
head as result becoming lighter, that
end Of the balance rises. When the
sleeper dreams small quantities Of
blood are recalled to the brain to sup
ply the dreams, and the balance is
gradually changed. In this way
dreams may be weighed.

EOILED THEMSELVES.
Burglar Failed to Crack Mis-
souri, Central Lumber Co.
Safe.

When T.. G. Phares entered
the Office Of the Missouri
Central Lumber company at
the corner Of Main street and
Massachusetts, avenue, Mon.
dav morning he discovered
that burglars had attempted
TO wreck the company's safe
sometimes between Saturday
night and Monday morning.
Mr.. Phares, who was in
charge Of the lumber yards,
during Saturday received
about 800 in payment for
lumber. He deposited the
cash in the money drawer of
the Office safe, forgetting to
take it away with him when he
left the office on Saturday
night. As had been his GUS
tom he did not lock the safe,
leaving il as formerly so that
in case of fire the door c,u'd
be swung open and the books
of The firm taken out quickly.
No money had ever been left
in the safe over night before
and the combination to the
safe consequently was not in
daily use.
Some one il is evident saw
Mr.. Pharcs place the money
in the safe and decided to get
it,. The rear door of the Of
fee was forced open aud the
amateur ~eracksman made a
bad break at the start by
turning the dial of the COM
blnation, thereby locking the
door of the safe. If in the
first place the burglars had
turned the handle Of the safe
the locking bolt would have
responded TO their touch and
a sum of 800 would have been
within their grasp.
After locking The safe
AGAINST themselves the burg
lars used a sledge hammer to
knock of the com imation
and the handle of the safe
door. Before they could use
Explosives the thieves were
frightened away without com.
pl .ting their job.

was taken yesterday morning
