"The mayor has never given me an
order to even make a change in the

Healey was under fire for several
hours before the committee. The al

questions relative to why men who
know the police game from A to q

Battle of Alma.

Sixty years ago soldiers of Britain and France, fighting side by side, achieved one of the most brilliant vic tories in the annals of war Never has the valiant fighting spirit of the British troops been better shown than when, on September 20, 1854, they waded through the River Alma, amidst shower of bullets, fought their way up the precipitous banks on the other side of the river and, hay ing burst through the dense under growth of vineyards, drove back the Russians, who were led by Prince Menschikoff
 The British troops were led by Lord Raglan and the French by Marshal St. Arnaud. Three thousand three hundred Of the allies were killed and wounded, heavy loss when one con- sders that the British forces num- bered only about twenty-seven thou sand and the French thirty thousand.

Frozen Food for Nerves.

Whereas once upon a time "ices' (although not ice) were considered un- suitable for invalids, some doctors have now decided that they supply needed stimulant in cases of nerv- ous breakdown and have tonic virtues of their own in certain fever cases.
 But the frozen dainties should be carefully prepared and contain only the finest ingredients, and it should be impressed on the invalid that he or she should eat of the ice creams, etc, only very slowly, in small sips from the end of teaspoon, and, need less to say, with the express permis- sion of the physician.
 The most wholesome of drinks is grapefruit juice squeezed into aer- ated water and iced. Frozen eggnog and frozen custards have their vir- tues, but are not so palatable as cream ices. which likewise afford a good deal of nourishment.

 Christian Temperance Union.)
IN WEST VIRGINIA.

A passenger conductor of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad writes to Hon. Fred o. Blue. state tax com missioner of West Virginia, as fol- lows: T was doubtful, as was every body else, as to the effect such law would have. l must confess that the immediate effect has been almost be- yond belief. We have now passed several pay days and Saturdays, and there has been absolutely no drinking worth mentioning, and where l had to endure personal risk in fist encounters almost every week to secure order from some trunks, l now handle even larger crowds with comparative ease. The women and children are now trav- cling, partly on the money that was spent for booze and partly because they are not afraid to travel The re- suits seem too good to last, but if all the officers of the law keep after it, see no reason why things shall not be even better as time goes on. This is a pretty unqualified indorsement for a railroad conductor who has been up against the world and a rough part of the world for 30 years, but I feel that the changed conditions war rant it."
 The following was received from a large coal operator of the state: T never in my life saw such a great improvement in the way of behavior and manly conduct as on the.p passenger train of the Cabin Creek branch of the Chesapeake and Ohio since whisky ceased to be a merchandising proposi- tion i'll our state Further, I notice with great pleasure that large DOT tion of our men who used to go out to get whisky are now spending this time with their families CT at the Y. M. c. A, and a portion of the money which originally went for whisky is now going toward the entertainment of their families, which means untold pleasures for the children"
 MT. Blue concludes his report with this statement: Such letters from men in touch with the practical every day life speak with more convincing power than anything l can say"

A BLESSING TO LABOR.

An authority on the labor question makes this statement:
 The wiping out of the liquor traffic will throw two thousand millions of dollars annually into the legitimate channels of trade and industry. This would take the entire otsput of every factory now in existence and necessi- tate the building of new factories. It would give employment to every idle person at increased wages. The bene- fits thus accruing to labor would far exceed the demands that labor is mak- ing of capital if all these demands were granted today"
