WHEN DIsRAELi WAS DRUNK

l was a good many years in parlia-
ment During that time heard many
members speak perceptibly under the
influence of liquor, but very few who
could be said to be drunk, One of
these, curiously enough, was Mr.. Dis
raeli, who was very temperate man.
1t occurred thus: He was then the
leader of the house and had to speak
late. Feeling greatly fatigued, he
begged a whip to bring him glass of
brandy and water. The whip brought
him a glass with more brandy than
water in it, which he drank, and in a
few minutes he was perfectly drunk.
He smiled vacantly. He let his hand
kerchief fall and made wild attempts
to pick it up, like the comic drunkard
on the stage. Then he collapsed and
cat down.
The house pretended to take no notice
of the scene. But a few~days later Mr..
Gladstone, in answering Mr.. Disraeii,
said that a minister should do or not
do this or that, and wound up by OBJ
serving that he ought to treat every
subject with sobriety, accentuating the
word and pointing at Mr. Disraeli. The
house was so offended-for it was we'll
aware how the previous incident had
occurred-that Mr.. Gladstone was ac-
tually hissed.-Henry Labouchere in
London Truth.

GERMAN THIRD DEGREE
RESULTS IN COLLAPSE
Young Army Officer, Unable to Stand
Strain of Secret Tribunal,
Breaks Down

VIENNA, Jan. 22.-Relentless cross
examination by the secret military
tribunal has resulted in the nervous
collapse of Lieut.. Hofrichter, the
young officer who is accused of being
the author of the Austrian army poi
son plot. The victim was a captain of
the general staff-one Of several Off
GERS who received samples of pol
soned "medicine" by post.
The procedure of the secret court is
calculated to intimidate and exhaust
the prisoner, whether innocent or
guilty. The result in Hofrichters case
has been painful. For some days it
has been impossible to continue the
examination He remains in his cell all
day, suffering from fits of hysterical
weeping The doctor of the prison has
had to calm him by administering
drugs.
The idea of the judges seems to have
been to force confession from the

presiding officer. The prisoner an

which the succeeding part opens. For
a civic pageant typical of the most eX-
traYagant and luxurious period of Eng
lish history Mr. Charles Rockets has
been invited to design the costumes.
Wat TyleTs rebellion furnishes some
stirring scenes; then King Henry re-
turns from Agincourt, with all the op-
portunities for military display which
such an event affords. The close of the
Wars of the Roses is shown by the re-
turn of King Henry VII after the de-
feat and death of Richard at BoSWorth
Field.
Then the dawn of the era of great
discoveries, the "Merrie England" OF
the early years of Henry WIS reign,
and the spacious days of Great Eliza
beth which follow, are all to be pre-
sented in turn.
In its later history London becomes
more drab, but there is yet a strong
appeal to be made through the eye. The
third and concluding part of the page
ant, leaving Shakespeare and his play
ers at the Globe theater-to be accu-
rately represented-will indicate the
foundation of the East India company,
with the return of Captain Lancaster.
The central episode in the subsequent
beginnings of empire will be found in
the connection of Virginia and the new
colony with the city, eXemplitied by
the masque given in honor of Princess
Pocahontas, the famous red Indian
princess who was married to an Eng
iishman. Plague and fire depict the
passing of old London, and with clos
ing scenes of the capture of quebec and
the death of Wolfe and Montcalm. of
Captain Cook leaving Deptford on an
expedition to the South Seas, and of
the passing of Napoleon, the pageant
comes to an end with an allegorical
tableau depicting "the gathering OF the
colonies round the mother country

cycle of three series, after the Wag-
merriam method. A cloud or steam cur
tain will be used to close each scene.
IN all no fewer than $1,000 persons par
ticipate in the display.
Opening with the dawn of history the
pageant first presents a scene of pre-
historic London with the great for
est to the north. King Lud, the legen-
dairy founder of the city, is the only
character staged for whose authen-
ticity no responsibility is taken. After
ward come the Romans, who lay the
true foundations of Londinium. 1t is
shown under two phases-by the sac
rifice offered to dams, and then by a
picture of the later Roman age,
when Christianity had been intro
duced, and the strategic importance of
the capital came to be realized and
it's fortifications undertaken. Saxon
London is to be reconstructed, a strik-
ing incident being the meeting of the
citizens in the "folkmoot."
Danish Scene Dramatic
The Danish invasion provides per-
hape the most dramatic scene in the
pageant The river up which the vi
kings sailed cannot be brought to the
Crystal palace, but the lakes in the
grounds will be utilized and spectators
will witness London bridge break in
the middle, and the defenders hurled
into the water. The scene closes with
the passing of the dead Olaf up the
river King Harold marches out to-
ward the south to meet William OF
Normandy after which the ConqueroT
enters with his army Medieval sports
and a brilliant scene depicting a tour
nament in Cheapside before Edward III

INSTRUCTOR THROWS
FEW MENTAL BOMBS
AT EXISTING STANDARDS
Professor Scott Nearing Says Women
Should Have Right to Propose
and FaVors a Health Clause
for Men

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 22-Profes-
sor Scott Nearing of the University of
Pennsylvania, whose ideas on matters
pertaining to the social body are not
always governed by existing standards,
threw a few mental bombs in an adj
dress at Swarthmore college which
created a -commotion.
For one thing, he declared against
the conventions which prohibit a girl
selecting a husband for herself and
proposing to him. This made the au-
dience, in which there was a prepon-
derance of "eo-eds," sit up and pay
strict attention. There was a buzzing
and whispering which made him pause
for minute, while the color rose in
the faces of many of his auditors.
Then he threw another one

ues uninterruptedly for long hours.
The ordeal seems to have broken the
lieutenant's spirit and left him ex-
hausted in mind. He eats little or
nothing. Deprived of books and ply

before him save when he is attacked
with fits of Sobbing.

LONDON LAYS PLANS FOR
ELABORATE PAGEANT
Scenes from Time of city's Legendary
Founder to Present Day to Be
Staged at Midsummer Fete

LONDON, Jan. 22.-One of the most
picturesque events of the coming year
will be the historical pageant of Lon
don, which is to be the central fea-
ture of the Festival of Empire" at
Crystal Palace in the summer. After
months of careful research by q com
mittee, over which Mr. G.. Laurance
CONNIE, the clerk of the London
county council, and himself a distin-
guished antiquary, presides, the full
list of scenes has now been completed.
These have been handed over in rough
form to Mr. Frank Lascelles, the mas
ter of the pageant, who will be respon-
sible for their arrangement, having
two historians to guide him in the
details. Mr.. Lascelles, it will be re-
called, produced most successfully the
Canadian pageant for the Quebec ter
centenary celebrations. The chairman
of the general council of the pageant is
the earl of Plymouth, and associated
with him are the duke of Fife, the
duke of Devonshire, Lord Strathcona

THE DRINK QUESTION AND

things than good liquor, and one Of
them is the water which we daily
draw from the mains of the Homo

statistics showing the number of sick
nesses and deaths due to the con
sumption of this commodity which
we cannot very well get along without,
i wish he would bring them to the
notice of the public through the me-
dunn of your columns.
In some parts in India and other
tropical countries it is not safe to
drink water Whiskey and soda, wnicn
is safer, is substitutes. In those coun.
tries it is not possible to get good
water, and Prohibition would be al
most an impossibility I was inform
ed by a physician the other day that
1t was not safe to use the gravity
