STATE AS LIQUOR SELLER.
An Experiment in owalia, West Aus
tralia, Results Successfully.

The West Australian state govern
ment's experiment in liquor business
control at the mining center of Gwalia
has managed TO live through criticism,
and now appears to be a firmly estab-
lished institution.
Within the last few days the new
chairman of committees of the senate,
Senator Pearce, has come forward
with first hand testimony. He had
stayed a week end at the state hotel
at Gwalia, and has now told public
meeting in this city how he found pre-
vailing conditions, says a Melbourne
letter to the London Chronicle.
Senator Pearce found that the man
ager of the hotel was paid good sal
airy and had no interest in adulterat-
ing drink or trading during prohibited
hours. The hotel was strictly for
public convenience, and there was no
more incentive to make men drink
beer than there was for a station mas
ter at a railway station to sell tickets.
The result was that there was no sign
of drunkenness about the town.
When a man was disposed to drink
more than he could afford or was good
for him there was machinery for exer-
cising control over him. All that had
to be done was for the mans wife or
relative to speak to the manager OF
the hotel, and then the barman re-
ceived instructions that he was to be
served with only two long beers a
'day-one when going on to his mining
shift" and one coming off. The min
ers called this being placed under the
Dog act" No one, however, outside
the complainant, the manager, or the
barman need be informed as to who
was on the list-except, said Senator
Pearce with sly smile, when the pro
scribed man himself lectured his fel
lows on their disgusting intemper
ance in calling for more than two
drinks a day. On Sunday not drink
was sold or asked for.
The Gwalia State hotel, after pay
ing all expenses and supplying a
splendid table and excellent bedroom
accommodation, now cleared a profit
of $4,000 per annum out of pure
liquors. The manager regarded him
self as a guardian of the people, who
would not give them poison to drink
nor allow them to abuse the privilege
of obtaining pure liquor.

A Eour-Decker Sea Pie.

A huge sea pie was served to a

Earthquake Philosophy.

Poverty has its compensations in
some matters. Thus the Mexican
poems who live in one-story adobe
huts suffer little from earthquakes as
compared with their richer neighbors
who live in more pretentious houses
of stone. The earthquake shock re-
duces the sun-dried adobe to harmless
powder, but it piles stone houses
upon the heads of those who live in
them. Poor and content" says the
poet, 'is rich and rich enough"
1t is probable, however, that
the peon would be willing to ex-
change houses with the caballero even
at the risk of earthquakes. 1t is the
disposition of mankind to set small
value on those things we have and
to place a high estimate on these that
we have not.

Wind, thunder and lightning played

the sky with great delight. The next
morning at breakfast he asked his

across the sky, and his father, with
great pains, essayed to explain. Paul
