) DRINKING IN MANY “AGES, An Interesting Lecture on the History of Alcohol. At the Natural History Museum Charles E. Pellew, of Columbia Uni- versity, delivered the first of an inter- ‘esting series of popular lectures upon alcohol last night. His subject was “The History of Alcohol,” and began by explaining the universal prevalence of stimulating or narcotic ‘drugs as showing the universal craving of man- kind for something to hide the trials and troubles of life. He spoke briefly about the early beverages of the an- an Hindoos and Chinese, and then = lustrated the drinking habits of the ancient Egyptians with a curious col- lection of lantern slides, The habits and customs of ancient Greece came next, and the worship of the great god ‘Dionysus, or Bacchus, was illustrated by some splendid photographs of vases, statues and bas-reliefs. Their wine was drunk diluted, never stronger than half water, and frequently with ‘two, four or even fifteen parts of the milder fluid. Mention was made of the curious nature of their wines, the ad- mixture of honey and spices, or rosin and turpentine, even of salt water, and the question of fermented and unfer- mented wines among them and the an- cient Hebrews. The use of wine among the more hardy and less civilized Mace- donians was less refined, and the ex- ploits of Philip and his son Alexander rivalled the tales told by the most ar- dent prohibitionist. At the feast given by Alexander at the tomb of Cyrus, a prize was offered for the — boldest drinker, and the victor, Promachus, credited with fourteen quarts of wine, died in three days’ time from the effects of his debauch, along with some fifty of his competitors. Early Rome was de- scribed as painfully temperate, espe- cially for the fair sex, who were sen- tenced to death for touching wine. It was sad to hear that kissing on the mouth was invented by the Roman husband to test his wife’s abstinence from the wine cask. Later, however, after Greece and the East were con- quered, wine flowed-freely, and the later republicans vied with the sub- jects of the early emperors in gross and unbridled drunkenness. The capacity of the Roman must have been considerable, for a citizen was knighted by the Emperor Claudius under the title of Tricongius, or “three- gallon man,” such having been a sin- gle draught of his. New-England came in for a touch from the lecturer. It was somewhat surprising to heart that, in the first call for supplies sent home by the Plymouth Bay colonists, the famous appeal headed by “ministers,” there were, along with requests for barley, Tye and wheat, for seed, and stores of fruit trees, a petition for ‘“vyne plantes” and for “hop-rootes.” The Minister, Mr. Higginson, was duly sent in 1628, and his ship was furnished with “45 tuns beere, 2 tuns canarie, 20 gallons aqua vitae” and only 6 tuns of water. The lecture closed with a short de- scription of the last century, charac- terized by the growth and development of the temperance movement. Some fine illustrations were given from Cruikshank’s powerful plates of “The Bottle,” and a comparison of the drink- ing habits of both the educated and un- educated classes of the present day as compared with those of a hundred or even fifty years ago showed the great advance of the present civilization. He Didn’t Mind, Andrew Lang, in the illustrated Lon- don News, gives an anecdote of Dean Stanley’s amiable simplicity. The dean was invited out to dinner, and was very late. When he arrived his collar jwas unfastened, and the ends vibrated like little white wings about the head of a cherub. People could not but look at him with curiosity during the din- ner,.and at length, with due precau- tion, his hostess ventured to ask him if he knew that his collar had broken adrift. “Oh, yes!” said the dean. mind?” “Not at all,” said the lady. “Then I don’t mind either,” answer- ed the dean. “The button dropped off while I was dressing,” and he contin- ued his conversation. “It was not,” says Mr. Lang, “ab- sence of mind, but unrivalled presence of mind that Stanley displayed on this occasion. Any other ‘human being than he would have been at the point of changing his shirt.” “Do you Easily Gauged. “Johnny,” said the farmer, “go down in the cellar and draw a pitcher of that eweet cider. Take a candle with you.” “Don’t need no candle,” said Johnny. “Ah, my little man,” said the min- ister, who was staying over night, “you must have quite an accurate judgment tto have filled that pitcher in the dark without. running it over.” “Aw,” said Johnny, “it ain’t no trick at all. When it got up to the first Joint of my thumb I stopped.”—Cin- (cinnati Enquirer. X-Rays from Glowworms, 3 \ Just summer while experimenting with thé light of glownorms. He operated with 300 glowworms at Kyoto, and he says that the light which they emit- ted, when filtered through cardboard or copperplates, showed -the properties of X-rays, or Becquerel’s fluorescence rays. Not So Bad. Slutter—Do you suppose it’s such a wery bad thing to be sarcastic? Cutter—Not nearly so bad as to think you are and not —Truth. Y f Cattle Raising for the English Var. ixet. According to a British government report, the impcrtation of American "cattle inte England is steadily on the increase. For the first five months of the current year it was 175,000 head, as compared with 112,000 for the same period last year. If this rate per month be sustained, the year’s import will be over 400,000, or much larger 1892. The London and Liverpool mar- kets have been so heavily supplied that the prices of American’ beeves have there fallen as low as 9c to 9 1-2¢ per pound (estimated dressed weight); while export steers were being quoted at Chicago at $3.75 to $4 per 100 Ibs, live weight.. At these rates shipments must have been made at a loss. The trade presents many interesting feat- ures, and is, in many respects, very similar to that of live cattle. Taking 600 pounds as the average weight of cattle slaughtered for the dressed beef trade, last year’s export from this country of fresh beef to England rep- resented a number of cattle nearly equal to that exported alive, the latter being, however, heavier cattle. The past five months’ export of chilled beef was 108,759,600 pounds, as compared with 81,841,065 pounds for the same period last year. At this rate, the year’s export will be some 60,000,000 pounds greater than in 1892. lt seems still a matter of doubt which of the two branches vf the trade offers the largest profits. The secretary of agri- culture, in his report for 1895, says: “It appears to work out more profita- bly to transport the live cattle. They are carried on parts of the ship that would otherwise be unoceupied. They do not require such special fittings and appliances as to debar the vessel from earrying other cargo when cattle are not available.” The ocean freight on the four quarters of a steer varies from $5 to $6. How a Letter May Be Recalled. The public is not as familiar. with {ts privileges about postal matters as might be supposed. Many times peo- ple would like to recall a letter after it has been mailed. This can be done, even if the letter has reached the postoffice at its destination. At every postofice there are what are called “withdrawal blanks.” On application | they will be furnished, and, when‘ a deposit is made to cover the expense, the postmaster will telegraph to’ the postmaster at the letter’s destination, asking that it be promptly returned.; The applicant first signs this agree-| ment: “It is hereby agreed that, it! the letter is returned to me, I will pro-! tect you from any and all claims made against you for such return ‘and will: fully indemnify you for any loss you may sustain by reason of such action. And I herewith deposit $— to cover all expenses incurred and will deliver to you the envelope of the letter re- turned.” In many cases persons have made remittances to fraudulent par- ties or irresponsible firms, not learn- ing their true character until -after the letter had gone, and have suc- ceeded in recalling them. There is an instance where a Kansas City mer- chant had remitted a dishonest trav- eling man a draft for $175, and by means of a withdrawal rescued the draft just in time. The Longest Continuous Specch. Will you kindly inform several of your-readers of the longest speech on record, and the name of the speaker? Answer—Many stories are related of unusually long speeches having been made for purposes of consuming time, and of gaining advantage thereby. A few years ago the Toronto Globe said that the longest speech on record was believed to have been that made by Mr. De Cosmos, in the legislature of British Columbia, when a n easure was pending, the passage of which would take from a great many settlers their lands. De Cos 10s was in a hopeless minority. The job had been held back until the eve of the close of the session, Unless action was taken before noon on a given day the act of confiscation would fail. The day before the expira- tion of the limituticn De Cosmos got the floor about 10 a. m.. and began to speak against the Dill. Its friends seemed careless, supposing they would have ample time to act when he got through. He kept on speaking through the afternvon, evening, night, next morning, and at last noon came to a baffled majority, livid with rage and impotence. So, a single man who was triumphant, though his voice had sunk to a husky whisper, his eyes were al- most shut, and bleared and bloodshot, his legs tottered under him, his baked lips cracked and smeared with blood. De Cosmos had spoken twenty-six hours and saved the lands.—Brooklyn Eagle, The Modern Drama, ‘Yes. sir; our Uncle Tom’s Cabin company is by all odds the most pro- gressive one or the road. Our motto is upward and onward. Why, you know, in all the little one-horse shows, the yallow gal, Eiiza, crosses the river on the ice to keep away from the dogs and slave-chasers? Well, sir, in our magnificent production we substitute for one insignificant river six deep bays, over which six yallow Elizas nimbly skip to freedom. That’s right.” “Six deep bays?” “Yes, sir; six deep bays, furnished by three Asiatic blood- hounds—just two apiece. Drop around this evening, and I’ll let ’em bay ana extra bay or two.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.. ‘What He Was Fishing For. “Was that your mother with you yes- terday?” “My mother? Dear, dear, that was my younget sister! We should so much like to have you come to dinner Sunday, Mr. Beusley.’—Cteveland Plain Dealer. A Dramatic Departure. “Any new features in the ‘Hamlet’ that Plodgett is getting up?” “Yes, he is goitg to have a fat | ghost.”—Chicago Record. . “I object to being retired from the field.” remarked the Base Ball. “J have a kick coming. too,” replied the Foot Ball.—Wittsburg Chronicle Telegraph. 4 { aap { 1 —oe than the exceptional importation in’ development of the chilled beef import’ The Minnesota state fair, which will be held at Hamline, midway “be- tween the two cities, from Sept. 6 to 11, will be the best ever seen in the Northwest. The past two exhibits have been especially prosperous, and, as the-result, the association offers premiums and purses to the amount of $25,000. This largesum is stimu- lating every department, and the en- tries of exhibitors are pouring in as never before. Yhe buildings are being overhauled, repainted, repaired and renovated. The grounds generally are being put in order, walks and roads repaired, and the race track is absolutely in superb condition. The purses offered for the races aggregate $7,500, and some of the most celebrated horses in the country will be present. Happy Jack, the famous horse which paces in 2:09 without rider, driver or sulky, will give a daily exhibition during the races. He is the original horse to give this unique exhibition. The displays of stock, poultry, dairy producis and farm machinery will be unusually large, and the whole exhibit will be a veritable harvest home-for the farmer. In addition to the exhibits there will be various amusements, such as balloon ascensions and other attrac- tions. The railroads return exhibits free, carrying them cCirect to the grounds. One fare for the round trip will be given to visitors, and steam and street cars run direct from the twin cities to the grounds. Both St. Paul and Minneapolis have carnivals state fair week, giving free evening street displays. The whole week will be one of pleasure and. instruc- tion. Parties desiring to camp on the grounds can obtain the free use of a tent by writing to Secretary E. W. Randal}, at Hamline. For Sale.
