DANGERS OF ALCOHOL.
SThmA av Freacli rkyaldJut Has to
9 AboBt TkU Polioa.
At tne meeting of the Paris Hospitals
Medical society, says the London Lan
cet, M. Legendre, alarmed by the ever
increasing amount of drunkenness,
asked if it would sot be possible to
withstand this by means of meetings,
insistence on the dangers of alcohol,
and by what he considered an even bet
ter method, that of getting up for the
instruction of patients lantern shows
with exhibitions of anatomic prepara
tions to show the dangers of alcohol.
M. Legendre has had printed for the
use of all his patients a little leaflet, the
text of which runs as follows: -
"Most of the diseases treated in the
hospitalu arise from alcoholic drinks
that is to say, they are either caused
or aggravated by the abuse of alcohol.
All alcoholic drinks are dangerous, and
the most harmful are those which con
tain aromatics in addition to alcohol
as, for instance, absinthe and the so
called aperients, called ainers.
"Alcoholic drinks are more danger
ous.when taken on an empty stomach
or between xeals. A man necessarily
becomes, an alcoholic i. e., slowly
poisoned by "alcohol even if he never
getB drunk, when every day he drinks
alcohol in the form of liquor or too
much' wine, more than one liter
per diem. -
" "Alcohol is a poison, the habitual use
of which destroys more or less quick-?
ly, but none the less certainly, all the
organs most necessary, to life the
stomach, the liver, the kidneys, the
blood vessels, the heart and the brain.
Alcohol excites man, but does . not
strengthen him. It is no substitute for
food, but takes away the taste for it.
Those who often drink alcohol or too
much wine more than one litre a day)
are much more liable to illness, and
when ill are much worse, for the dis
ease is often complicated with fatal de
lirium. -
"Alcohol is a frequent cause of con
sumption by its power of weakening
the lungs. Every year we see patients
who attend the hospitals -for alcohol
ism come back some months later suf
fering from consumption.. Fathers and
mothers who drink often have children
who are deformed. or idiots or who die
from fita.

Stories of a. Ocatlewaa of the Clotk
Who Bnm Bre
-. ' " . Soldier. .". ''
A "fighting chaplam, Rev. James B.
Hamilton,:. Thirty-first Indiana, who
died not very long ago, ged"89"years.
wis so modest that be never would
give out any t hang' for public a tion about
himself during his lifetime. ; I have
been waiting for some comrade to
publish something about one- of the
best and most earnest men who ever
lived. The incidents given here are
trae I every particular, says H. B.
Baker, in- the National . Tribune.
- Tt.. sfinlnin was an itmrnt f ptf-
odlst preacher, fearless in speech, in-
tensely loyah and, of course, hurt feel
ings while preaching in Sullivan county,
IncL, a home of copperheadism and
Humphries and other shining lights of
the Knights of the Golden Circle.
Rev. Hamilton' was traveling1 the .
lanton circuit in the spring of 1864. and
had to preach at the fnneraljof a soldier
about four, miles from town at one of
his regular preaching places. . He was
to meet the procession at the church..
After he had premised to go he re
ceived an awkward-iy-gotten-up notice,
by mail that he must not go or he
would be egged. Well, the funeral pro-
cession arrived at the church first, andi
.was seated when he gtot there. He
coolly walked- into the pulpit and laid
out his Bible, opened it, and then dee w
two seven-shooters from his pockets
and laid one on each side of the Bible. -He
read the notice he had received and -said:
" . ; '' . . .:.
"These "f eKows who gave that, notice
could not egg anything-, as they had
no hens,vand, of course, had no eg-gs.
They; had no money to buy eggs, and
were too cowardly to steal them." He '
went on, saying: "I have two hens
here," and as he picked up the revoly
ers and cocked them, he said: "They
lay seven etggs each, and cackle every
time they lay an egg". If there is the
least disturbance they will "cackle."
All was quiet dmring1 that service.
At one time he and his wife were in
their buggy driving- home 'from reg-u-
lar services, when they came upon
the notorious copperhead, "Capt." Sis
son, "who was drilling his men. The
"captain" drew his company across the
road and gave the command: "Right
dress, front, order arms. Now, not
a d n man move."- The parson drove
up to within eight or "ten paces, gave
the lines to his wife, and raised in his
bugigy with a revolver in each hand, .
and said: . - - 1
"If you don't get out of the road I
will move a man who will be damned
pretty quick also." And the cowards
literally ran over each other to get out
of the way. Nothings more was said,
and he and his wife drove on their way.
Hamilton was appointed chaplain of
the Thirty-first in September, 1864.
Col. Smith and he went to the regi
ment together, and they arrived, on
Saturday in the forenoon, just about
the time dinner was ready. Thequar- .
termaster came up and was introduced
by the 'colonel to the new chaplain.
This quartermaster was ever profane,
but that day he was more than usually
so. The chaplain had scarcely time to
'return thanks between thequartermas-i
ter's oaths. The chaplain finished his
dinner first and walked around in front
of the tent, and was Walking- back and
forth. When the quartermaster came
around also, the chaplain walked up in
front of him and said:
"Captain,. you were introduced to me
. -w j 1
7 &.gentieman, ana l unaersiana you
were introduced as a gentleman, but I
Olllliilllllllglliii

find that you are not a gentleman. You
are nothing- but a vulgar, profane black
guard, and if you have sense enough
you have purpoftely .tried to insult me.
.1 will give you just two minutes to
apologize. - If you do not in that time
I will whip you until you will have to
have help to get to y5ur horse." f
He took a step toward the quarter-
master and he wilted and begged off.
In the meantime the whole regiment
"caught on" and crowded around and
yelled and cheered themselves hoarse.
They all believed in and loved their
chaplain after that. There was always
a bier turn-out of. the bova when Rev.
Hamilton, of the Thirty-first Indiana
was to preach.
- The chaplam was reported by eye
witnesses to have been on the front
line in every battle in which hia regi
ment was engaged while he was chap
lain, and there were lots of them. It
was told me by an eyewitness' that on
December 15 at Nashville, in theTate
afternoon, a charge was ordered to
take a rebel fort in front of the Thirty
first. The fort was surrounded by a
wide ditch and hig-h banks of earth on a
hilltop, up whih the charge had to be
made. The. boys went up gallantly, the
chaplain with a carbine loading and
shooting in front. When Bob Crockett,
of company Jt,- got on top of the fort,
and looking down in the fort saw the
chaplain knocking down and ordering
Johnnies to surrender,' in' a stentorian
voice Crockett cried : "Who ever saw a
chaplain in a fight before?" and they
all cheered and gathered around to help
him. . .
