Special Dispatch to The Call CHICAGQ, May 6.—Whisky at break- fast and a few highballs after dinner are not so bad as the American habit of drinking tea and coffee at mealtimes, ac- | cording to Professor William Caldwell of the department of mental and moral philosophy at the Northwestern Univer- sity. For that restless spirit and tensely drawn face Professor Caldwell prescribed | less of the latter beverages to one of his classes to-day. “We talk of drunkenness as being bad,” said Professor Caldwell, “but the habit of drinking tea and coffee at meals Is (afl‘ more injurious to some men.” Not to alcoholic beverages, but to tea and coffee driking, is the extreme ner- vousness of Americans traceable, in his opinion. Other faculty members of the Methodist University, when they heard of Professor Caldwell's views on the subject of drink- ables, were inclined to be shocked, but declared their intenticn to stick more firmly to temperance drinks.

About 2000 persons made a dem- onstration against the authorities, but they were dispersed.

Then the sleuths wiped their perspiring brows, murmured some things that would not bear printing and scurried home to their family firesides for much desired dinners. Miss Sue Plerson and her mother are guests at the Palace Hotel. They arrived here several days ago from Sacramento | for the purpose of procuring the neces- sary articles to complete the wardrobs of the former when she makes her inaugu- ral appearance at the opening of the -a nival in Sacramento next week.
