Deaths from ALCOHOLISM in rrance

Alcoholism in France is held to be
one of the most terrible scourges of the
present day, and is also APPARENTLY one
of the chief causes of death. Two years
ago the Academic de Medicine invited
members of the medical societies to col.
leet statistics of all deaths in their
wards.
Nj. Fernet has communicated a sum
mary of these statiscis and finds that
during the last fifteen months among a
total of over 500 deaths occurring in
eleven different hospitals and asyums
alcohol played a part in the cause of
death in on thid of the cases. 1t was
the principal cause in one-tenth of the
deaths, and it was the accessory cause
in more than two-tenths. Alcohol show
ed still greater influence on mortality
in asylums than in the general hospitals.
At the AISLE Saint Anne thirty ont of
sixty-three consecutive deaths were
among alcoholics. In asylums generally
alcohol was the cause of disease and
death in nearly half the male cases and
in one-sixth of the female cases.-The

Treasure Was Not a Pine Dream.

The next time Daniel Oldham was a
revelation to make, his son Martin prob
ably will not deride it as pipe dream.
The father, who is an old man, recently
asked the son to go with him dig up
$3.50 in gold, which, he said was on the
farm of Hug McFadden, in Sugar Creek
township, but the son smiled significant
ly and intimated that the story was
a vagary.
The son went TO Franklin last Satur-
day, and the old man persuaded the
grandson, Charles, to accompany him.
No one was at home at the McFadden
farm, and Mr.. Oldham asked the grand.
son to get shovel and follow him.
He did as requested, and they then
went to the north side of the house. I'M

was requested to dig in certain spot
to a depth of two feet. He did so, when
his shovel struck an old kettle. Ii was
pulled from the ground and tin box
taken from it, When the box was open
ed it was found to contain $3.50 in
gold.
Seven or eight years ago Oldham
lived with his daughter. who was Mrs.

YOUNGEST MAN IN SENATE

William james Bryan the young dem

unexpired term of Senator Stephen r
Mallory, who died several days ago, will
be the youngest man to take seat in
the senate in a long time. He is just
about two years over the constitutional
age of thirty, at which man may enter
the upper branch of congress. During
the last decade the youngest man elect.
ed to the senate was Albert j. Bever-
idge, of Indiana, who was but thirty
six when the toga fell upon his should.
ers; that was nine years ago.
The next youngest man in the SEN
ate now is Simon Guggenheim, of Col
orado, whose fortieth birthday has Just
occurred. Elmer j. Burkett of Nebras-
ka, was forty on December |, but when
he entered the senate he was under
thirty-eight. Senator Nixon, of Nevada,
is in the same class, for he was forty
years of age last July. In the early
days of the republic the eSnate con.

NEW PUZZLE IS
GOING ROUNDS
ONE A GREAT DEAL HARDER
THAN HOW OLD is ANN Be
ING FIGURED OUT.
Puzzle Is Said to Have Started in
Western City and Is Passing Along
From Place to Place-Several Con-
clusions Have Been PREACHED.

If you happen to see friend of yours
busily engaged with pencil and paper
iotting down figures in manner to give
the impression that he was in the last
stages of brain storm, it is safe to
say that the particular individual is
engaged in trying to solve ''the brake.
man puzzle.
Never heard of it, you say. Better
get in line and study it over, only take
sufficient precaution not to contract a
severe case of brain flag. It's a great
deal harder than answering the ques-
ton, Glow Old Is Amt"
The puzzle is said to have started in
a wester city, and is passing along from
place to place.
Here is the puzzle: Two railroad sta
tons, "a" and "B" are five miles
apart. A train one mile in length
starts from station GA The brake
man waits on the station platform until
comes along and gets aboard. AS the
train proceeds toward OBJ the brake
man walks toward the engine. When
the train reaches OBJ he gets off of
the ear at the rear of the engine, hav-
ing walked the entire length of the
train between the two stations What
was the total distance he travelled How
far did he walk2 How far did he ride?
Decided Views Are Taken.
Decided views are taken on the ques-
ton. One man insists that if the brake
man had just reached the engine at the
time the train reached OBJ he would
have walked one mile and ridden FIVE,
total distance travelled of six miles.
Another is confident that he rode five
miles and walked five miles, while still
another thinks he rode FIVE miles and
walked six miles, total distance of
eleven miles. Several hold to the six
mile theory, pointing out that the brake
man walked one mile while the train
was going FIVE. Still another conclusion
is that the man walked one mile and
rode four miles, travelling altogether
five miles.
But these are just few of the re-
suits that have been arrived at since the
puzzle appeared. Some of the affected
persons are so sure that their eonelu-
sions are correct that they give a dem
onstration with a pencil and paper, !
showing a diagram of the stations. track !
and train. Can you solve itl Get on
and try.
