NATIONS LARGE DRINK BILL
I Decrease in Amount of Alcohol Con.
sumed in United States Shown
, by Estimate.

That the people of America are be-
ginning to grow more sober in their
habits again is the apparent lesson of
the American Grocer's estimate of the
nations drink bill for 1909.
In spite of ten years of prohibition
agitation 1907 was the banner year
for the liquor trade. Consumption
reached then its maximum. In two
years the population increased by
2,749,966, but the money spent upon
alcoholic drinks fell off $11O,1S5, 500.
This was not an economic after effect
of the panic; that would have been
more apparent in 1908; besides, tea,
coffee and cocoa established in 1909 a
record
The per capita use of spirits in 1909
was the smallest since 1900; of beer
since 1905 Of both there was a de-
cline in 1908 and again in 1909 The
consumption of wine alone increased,
but by trif1e.
/ The treasury in 1909 derived from
spirits $109, S6S,S17; from fermented
liquors, s75,55O,754; from imported al.
&oholics, $15,650,113, and from tobac-
'cos $50 ,355,0S4.- The average tax per
gcapita from all these sources was
1928.
Taking the estimated retail price of
alcoholics and adding coffee, tea and
cocoa, the 1909 drink bill of the ma,
tion was:

There is more in life than to
think of trouble and death. The
earth is good old place filled
with pleasure you should know
of, and there is a glad, whole
some world beyond this. How
much better than being a cold,
uncharitabIe "goody-goody" Is it
to be little bad, as some might
say, If you devote part of
your life to doing good.
Why 60 around as If your
life is a burden to you? Get out
and have some fun. God is in
the world and he has made it
glad and full of joy. Have some
of 1t and make some of it. You
will live longer and you will die
happier. Let your creed BEL
Believe in Doing Good" If you
wish a sect, let it be the sect of
Brotherhood. If you must have
something to curse, let 1t be
IiIeness. In order to Be, you
must Do. Men, it Is your duty
to love and provide. And wo-
men, you should know that wo-
manhood Is most beautiful when
1t Is Wifehood and motherhood.
Your grandest work is that of
the wife and mother who so
loves that she creates love.

20 per cent. The Irish people are
now drinking stout, which is not half

turned his mount and started southwark.
An instant later he was alongside. and
with both horses at full speed he caught
the bride CT the Greer animal. He hung
on grimly, and at 45th street he swung

the $500 Jewel to Pawn.

The trial of William c. Schneider, of No.
227 West 45th street, charged with the
larceny of a diamond pin valued at 500.
began yesterday in Part II of General Ses-
sions Mrs Leba Z. WeihGT, wife of
I,orenza F. J. Weber, of the Hotel Males
tic, owner of the pin, stated that Schneider
took the pin from her when she showed it
TO him on January 16, 1909, and later
pawred it. He was arrested in October
last
Although Mrs. Weber denied she had
seen Schneider for a long time before the
day when she alleges he took the pin, he
testified in his own behalf that he had been
meeting her two or three times a week for
at least a year previous to that date.
Mrs. Weiher denied any knowledge of a

Negro Orators Bring Salt for
Cam paign SerIices.

Otto T. Barnard was defendant yesterday
In the Sd District Municipal Court in two
suits brought by Isaac Allen, of No. 235
West SD street. and julius Ayler, of No.
1881 Broadway, both negro orators, who
sought to recover s225 and $780, respectively,
for thirteen days service as street speakers,
from October is to November /. They were
represented by John William Smith, a
negro lawyer.
Mr. Barnard was accompanied to court
by his campaign manager, Congressman
William Bennett, and he was defended by
r Kelly Prentice. chairman OF the law
committee Of the Republican County Com
mittee.
Aliens contention was that Congressman
Bennett had promised him a substantial
sum-" TO be paid after the campaign, but
that after much effort he failed TO get the
money Justice Murray dismissed Allen
complaint on the ground that no value OF
services had been established.
Ayier described himself as former
preacher, a Yale man, lawyer now and
for thirteen years an orator Of expert
ence." .
CONGRESSMAN Bennett testified that for all
the money he paid out he was reimbursed
by the Republican County Committee, and
that he paid for the dinners and cigars Of
the orators and their expenses. Mr.. Ban
nard testified that Bennett had no power to
make any contracts for him; that he was
only his campaign manager and held an
advisory position. Thomas w Whittle,
secretary Of the county committee, teSti-
fed to the same facts, and Justice Murray
reserved decision on AYERS complaint.

FINDS FERRY WASTE
Mayor Says City SerUice Costs
S3OO,OOO Too Much

In forwarding to Dock Commissioner
Iomkins a preliminary report of the Com
missioner of Accounts On the cost of the
municipal ferry service, Mayor Gaynor said
last night that the excess in operating eX-
penses over similar expenses in private op-
Grafton seemed 10 be about $500 900. 1T
would seem as though these ferries have
been operated by the city without any re-
gard 10 expense" said the Mayor.
According to the report there are five
boats in the Staten Island service and the
same number in the South Brooklyn ser
vice. OF the ten boats, two on each line
are always laid up-one in the slip. ready
ing repairs. The Mayor says in his letter.
The two boats so held in emergency
have full crews on them all the time. In
the case of the ferries operated by pri-
yate companies in this harbor there is only
one emergency boat for like conditions. and
it has no crew, but receives the crew OF
the disabled boat whose place it takes.
Furthermore, the crews of the city boats
are much larger than those of similar boats
Of the private companies
"As the citys crews work only eight
hours day, each boat has three crews,
but the excess speak of is over and above
the excess caused by the eght-hour day.
The excess In operating expenses caused by
the things l have mentioned alone includ-
ing the two crews which are constantly
idle. seems to be about $500 000'

BEATEN BY ROBBERS,
T7co Arrests Quickly FoHoze
Oufrages an The BrOnu.

Mrs. Margaret Tebeau, who has a men s
furnishing store at No. 1872 Lincoln avenue,
The Bronx, was badly beaten by several
robbed her of $40 Is. Two hours after the
assault and robbery two men entered the
livery stable of Patrick TurIey, at Lin
coin avenue and 136th street slammed the
door, backed Turley up against ii, and
proceeded 10 go through his pockets Find
ing nothing, they struck him several blows
on the head and ran away.
The livery stable keeper hurried to the
Alexander avenue station, and Detectives
Farrell and Hagan were furnished with a
description of the men. Later they arrested
two men in a saloon. They were positively
identified by TuTley as the men who had
assaulted him The prisoners, who gave
the names of John Hanley, of No Isl Alex
ander avenue, and Hugh Devlin, of No. 494
Bergen avenue, were locked up on two
charges of assault, one of robbery and one
OF attempted robbery, after being identified
at Lincoln Hospital by Mrs. Tebeau as two
of the men who had attacked her.
Mrs. Tebeau was alone in the shop when
the men entered. She was harshly treated
by them when she attempted to make an
outcry, and was unconscious when they left
herself to the door and called for help.
Blood was streaming from a cash in her
head when an ambulance from Lincoln
Hospital came and transferred her to that
institution
