FORMER MISHAWAKAN
KILLS BEAR IN WIS.

Carl Wilke Monday received an in
teresting account Of a bear hunt, in
which Walter StiCkler. a former
Mishawakan, took a leading part.
Mr.. Stickler is now located at MARCEL,
Wis, and had been told that a bear
had been seen prowling around the
neighborhOOd OF the resort which he
manages. one morning recently a
guest Of Mr.. Stickler's reported that
he had been chased by master bruin.
Stickler and a guide started in pur-
suit Of the enemy which was found
lurking in the neighbOrhood. a shot
was sent into his system, but the re-
suit was hardly what the hunter
anticipated. Bruin displayed some
temper and made a hurried sprint TO
the nearest tree, which he mounted.
In his new position he afforded an
excellent target and another heavy
charge Of shot found the vital spot
in his anatomy and brought his bear
ship To the ground dead, Mr.. Stickler
having done the shooting.

REPORTS from a Swiss source stated
mat Emperor William and Field Mar

Austria's initial action by sea and
air along the Adriatic coast, while
causing only slight damage, spread
fear among the civilian population
and thousands are fleeing from their
homes in dread of another attack. The
following places were the targets Of
the Austrian attacks:

the Tremiti Islands, Barletta and Va

Skirmishing is in progress in the
mountain passes of the Tyrolese Alps

Activity on the part of the Austrian

small damage had been done by the
Austrian aeroplanes. press advices say
that a number of civilians were killed

War Brings Climax in
British Temperance
BY Philip Everett

LONDON. May %. - Great Britain
was drinking less liquor every year
when the war broke out. but since
the conflict began there has been a
decrease in the amount Of beers con-
sumed and an increase in the amount
Of spirits. The rise in the sale Of
spirits has been due principally to the
high wages in the ship building and
other industrial areas
Eight years ago there were $4,000
convictions for drunkenness in Eng
land and Wales. With the population
steadily increasing in numbers. the
number of convictions had fallen to
16s,00O in the year before the war
started.
The effect of the war on convic-
tons is not obtainable in figures. but
since Aug /, 1914. there has bee-l a
decrease in consumption OF 1000. 600
barrels Ct beer compared with the
same period Of 1913-1914. an increase
of 1900 gallons of spirits and a de-
crease Of nearly 100000 gallons of
wine.
An interesting map published here
shows the prevalence of drunkenness
in different parts of England and
Wales. The dark areas of hard drink
ing lie in the center and north
especially the latter Here. il is to
be noticed, the consumption of spirits
is highest and the beers drunk are
heavier, /. e.. contains more alcohol,
than in the south and southeast.
Drunkenness and drinking are
comparatively nonresident on the
east and south coasts; indeed, in all
areas in which agriculture provides
work for most of the people and
where sunshine is greatest Sunshine
and sobriety go hand in hand in the
British isles
In these sunny areas light beers are
preferred to the heavier beers of the
mldiands and the much heavier beers
OF the north.
In the war districts of the lowlands
of Scotland as well as in the high
lands. whisky may we'll be accounted
a national drink
When in 1909 the tax Of whisky
was appreciably increased. the num-
Der of convictions for the year fell by
1925. The effect was extraordinary
in Scotland, where convictions in the
towns fell by q per cent Until a
few months ago the distilleries had
not recovered from the blow dealt
them in 1909. the consumption of
whisky having steadily fallen until it
reached 100000 gallons a year.
Apart from outbursts which are
spasmodic. drunkenness and drinking
are steadily decreasing among all
classes.
In Glasgow, where the whisky is
the drink, 21,O0O persons were ar
rested in 1907 for drunkenness. 1.7O6
on Sunday, which is supposed to be a
closed day for the public houses. The
1909 increased whisky duties caused
Glasgow to record 1000 fewer cases
OF drunkenness a year.
In making any sort of comparison
between Scotland and England. how
ever, one must not forget the differ
ence between the laws Of the two
countries. The Glasgow police do not
arrest q drunken man il he can crawl
home or if his friends are willing to
carry him home.
According to the 1911 census
$4,000 persons are directly and indi-
rectly engaged in the United kingdom
liquor trade.

PRINCESS THEATER HAS

the doors opened until the closing
hour. The pictures shown at this
popular playhouse are always good.
but last nights series were exception
ally so. Charlie Chaplin, the versa
tile English comedian, is featured at
the Princess every Monday night, and
this alone is sufficient to draw from
all parts of the city. However, he had
splendid company last night, the other
films being or a high class and most
interesting character. Under the
management of George Senger. Mish-
awaka's two playhOuses get the best
