"BEASTLY DRUNK"

lVoU have used the expression. "beasty drunk"
Il What does it mean? You beast drunk
in wilmington any other place.
"BeastIy drunk" is old expression. 1t started in
l157s from book written by George Gascoisne. The
book has this curious "A delicate Diet dsine
mouthed Droonkardes wherein the fowle Abuse OF
common carowsing and quafng with hartie Draughtes
is honestle admonished"
All this BAG years ago. 1t took long time to
get prohibition.
II you wonder what human nature like in 1876,
and would It with the present read this cass
hcatiOn of drunkards written by Thomas Nash. English
satiris shortly after Gascoigne published his book:
THE first is ape-drunk. and he leaps and sings and
holows and danceth for the heavens.
THE second is on-drunk, and he filings the pots
about the house breaks the window with his dag
ger. and apt quarrel with any that speaks
him.
The third is swine drunk heavy. lumplsh, and
sleepy. and cries for little drink and few
clothes.
The fourth sheep drunk, wise in his conceit
when he bringeth forth right word.
THE fifth is maudlin-drunk when fellow will weep
for kindness in the midst of his drink and kiss and
then he puts his finger in his eye and cries
The sixth is martin drunk, when is drunk,
and cries himself sober he stirs
"The seven.h is goat-drunk when his drunkenness
he hath mind but lechery.
The eighth is foxdrunk. when he is crafty-drunk
which will bargain but when they drunk"
Nash adds "All these species and more, have seen
practised in company at sitting; when have
been permitted remain sober amongst them only to
note their several humours,"
Wilmington bartender reading Nash's satire. would
chuckle recall that all these drunken types were
common only few years ago in saloons.
Nashs satire is clever classification OF the tenn |
porary insanity that accompanies John Barleycorn.
People noticing IT, when Nash lived in the six
eenth eenturyaso long before that. The wonder is,
not that have prohibition but that 1t didn't come

deserve, and shares of railroad stock
will 80 by way of the German mark
and the Russian ruble.
The success of the shopmen. plus
the demands that will Immediately
follow from other railway workers,
means a subtraction from the re-
mainders of railroad values. Rail-
road owners will endeavor to pass on
the whole of the load, but they can't.
Thus We have a strike on our hands
which implies loss to every one
to the public, 10 the shopmen and TO
railroad owners.
But there is a phase Of the strike
matter even more important than
the incidence of immediate loss.
Suppose the existing railroad own
ers use their securities for wall pa
per and the railroad employees,
witnout labor boards to bother them,
fix their compensation as they please
what then?
In such glorious proftless days
the railroads must pay their inflated
current expenses out of high rates
or the public must be taxed 10 bal
ance railway budgets. Russia's les
son is instructive. The capacity OF
Russian railroads to move freight
and passengers Is now about 10 per
cent. of what it was four years ago
If such were the consequences in a
country where IS per cent. of the
population are farmers and can live
without mechanical transportation,
we can surmise the results in coun-

struggling to do more than appears
on the surface. He has his fingers
on the throat of a great evil! II it |

rapid and ruinous descent to stand

All Losers
CFrom the New York Tribune.)

Should the shopmen win the
strike, railroad managers say that
the public, in high living costs. will
pay the bill. The shopmen retort
that the railroads, should they win,
will collect their expense bill from
the public.
Both statements have truth In
them, but neither is the whole truth.
Both the railroads and the unions
