OVERLY.
In the last day or so we have had
seven men in the station all of them
paralyzed drunk" said the chief to-
day. "In most of the cases the in
%toxication had been caused by drink
ing denatured alcohol. In other cases
patent medicines. or lemon extract
had been used.
Denaeured Alcohol Poison.
"Denatured alcohol is especially
vicious as it causes poisoning over
and above the ordinary effects of in
t%oxication. The drinking of even al
very small amount seems to reduce
the victim to a state of coma, or to
make him q raving lunatic. |
lover Indulgence may be attended
by fatal results, and any man who
acquires a 'souse' by the denatured
alcohol route, should realize that he
is risking his life in so doing.
II expect to tax the matter up
with the legal authorities in the eff
fort to find out if some legal method
may not be found to stop The sale OF
these prohibition drinks which at
present seems to be going OF indis-
criminately.
Young Man Injured.
1--WE had one ase last night In
which a young man was brought into
the station in a condition of practical
paralysis. He had been drinking wood
alcohol with a couple of strangers.
The victim was unable to give any
clear account of what happened, but
apparently a fight ensued. In any
case the man when found by the po-
lice had been beaten up His face
was badly cut. and he was in bad
shape generally.
There have been numerous other
cases in which the alcohol or patent
medicine debauches have had more or
less serious results.
THE way the thing stands at pres
emit, it is difficult for us to reven the
traffic in these intoxicants, and about
all we can do is to take care of the
victims"
