SCIENCE AND ALCOHOL.

Physicians and savants' are max
ing things singularly unpleasant for
King Alcohol of late. Science,
which was once his most faithful
ally, has taken up arms against.
him and is fighting him almost as
vigorously as the preachers and
professional anti-saloon men are.
We have travelled long way from
the position of DR.. Oliver Wendell
Holmes, who, in the "Autocrat of
the Breakfast Table" severely re-
Dukes "the young man called John"
for ojecting to the use of rum as
a steady drink" DR.. Holmes takes
up brilliant page or two, singing
the praises OF wine as a stimulant
to wit, brightener of the intelli-
gence and humanizer of the heart
The latest word of science on the
subject is that his dulcet song was
ignorant nonsense. The learned
participants in the deliberations of
the American Society for the Study
and Cure of Inebriety and Abolish,
which has just been in session at
Washington, have nothing good to
say for alcohol in any of its forms.
The common belief that it is a
stimulant they declare to be a de-
fusion. The man who takes a
drink fancies that his muscles are
stronger, his nerves surer and his
courage higher under its effects,
but he is deceived. The truth is
that his fancy fools him. Exact
measurement, such as savants
understand we'll how te make, show
that even a small drink of liquor
lessons a mans muscular strength.
1t diminishes his powers of en-
durance, enfeebles his resistance to
heat and cold, and dulls his wit.
The old opinion that wine makes g
man brilliant is another delusion
What 1t really does is to blunt the
keen edge of intelligence in every
body present at a baquet so, that
they cannot distinguish sense from
nonsense. The stuff which passes
for wit on those occasions is in
reality base imitation of it. In
stead of being a Stimulant, alcohol,
according to the latest and brightest
scientific luminaries, is a narcotic.
It is not tonic at all, but a soda
tive. Instead of heightening the
vital energies it depresses them.
All this is ascertained, not by emo.
tional guesses and hysterical hit-or-
miss methods, but by careful obser-
vations, carried on in laboratories
where results are worked over for a
long time and repeatedly tested
before they are given out. The old
belief that beer, or wine, or any
other alcoholic drink, is a food, has
gone the same way, as the slim
ulant fallacy. It is not food.
On the contrary, when taken with
meals 1t delays digestion and sets
up disorders of the stomach One
OF the savants at the Washington
meeting declared that every mode
rate drinker suffers from digestive
disturbances. Alcohol is oxidized
in the liver, but not as a food or as
a fuel. The oxidation is a pro
tective measure, by which the
sytem tries to get rid of it. Every
where and always in the body,
alcohol acts as a poison and it has
the unfortunate habit of intensity
ing the susceptibility 10 other kinds
of poisons and infections. In parti-
cular, pc son who uses alcohol in
any quantity, no matter how small,
increases his liability to incur tuber-
culosis, while tuberculosis patient

The wreck, which occurred on the
Great Northern a week ago today
between White Earth and Tioga
proved to be q very lucky one for
the Great Northern, and as stated in
our last issue, no one was killed
while several were quite seriously
injured.
The train was in charge of Con-
ductor Walrath and Engineer John
Peterson. When the heavy engine
struck a bad piece of soggy track,
on curve, the rails spread, and let
nearly the whole train down over
the embankment. Engineer Peterson
applied the emergency brake and
no doubt saved scores of lives in do
ing so. The sudden stop had a ten
dency to pile the coaches on top of
each other, and several went of the
track, on either side. The track for
quite a long distance was torn up.
The fireman, Mr.. Rice, jumped, and
was struck by the engine. He suf-
fered internal injuries, and his back
was badly injured. He has a chance
to recover. ,..
