DID MUCH FOR MANKIND.
Bessemer, Inventor OF Steel Process,
Born 100 Years Ago.

London Jan. lS.--It will be one hun
born in a little village In Hertford-
shire a man whose life according 10
the opinions expressed by the news
papers at the time of his death If
teen years ago. had been more useful
one person. The man was Sir Henry
Bessemer, who will be known for
ever as the inventor of the process
for converting cast iron into steel
without the use of fuel.
Bessemer did for the steel industry
what Newton did for astronomy and
what Darwin did for natural science
The revolution in that industry fol-
lowing upon Bessemer's discovery was
as great as the revolution in indus
try at large following the discovery
of applied. steam power,
Before the Bessemer process came
into vogue the production Of steel in
Great Britain was only $4,000 tons an
nually, and the average price was $3.50
a ton. In 1911 the production in the
United Kingdom reached 100000
tons. In the same year the United
States produced nearly 25.000,000 tons.
The saving to the world by the cheap
cning Of steel is estimated at s250,0OO,-
600 year-equal to more than one
half the worlds entire output of gold
for the same period.

SAYS THE LAWS Of FRANCE
CONTRIBUTE TO ALCOHOLISM

Paris, Jan. tS.-Former Premier Gle
menceau has written the preface 10 a
pamphlet devoted TO a general ecuno-
mic study of alcohol. which has JUS,
been laid before the Paris Academy Of
Medicine.
NJ. Clemenceau, like the author OF
the pamphlet, finds it deplorable that
the 'onnipotent authority Of the
state should seem to be powerless
against 'the most formidable enemy II
social peace. of general welfare. and OF
the rise of the humber classes to a
higher life"
He ridicules existing remedies, which
consist in taking drunken men to the
police Office or placarding the inside of
wine shops with prohibitions of
drunkenness, while the laws of France
relating to the manufacture and sale
of the most deleterious kinds of spirit
contribute to foster this particular
vice.
To-day" Mr.. Clemenceau continues,
1T ia beginning to be understood that
the right TO poison people cannot
properly be regarded as one of the
achievements of the French Revolu-
tion. Universal suffrage would really
put Itself out of court if it had only
succeeded in emancipating itself from
the yoke Of single tyrant in order To
fall under the sway of a league of
private interests which are in open
warfare with the public interest All
well-intentioncd men, without distinc-
tio nof party, ought to join in a CON-
mon effort for the salvation Of our
country. which is menaced from SO
many directions at once"
