NOTES MARY A. NOTSON, Reporter. Prize fighting is not to be com mended, and yet the interest of a great many people, especially the young, is centered in a prize fight when it occurs. Prize fighters go to no end of trouble in keeping themselves fit They use the great est care in regard to eating and drinking. Other athletes follow along the same lines. Young Schmel- ing, now heavyweight champion, has this to say: I feel that if I ever took so much one drink of liquor that that would mean just one punch I could n't get away from sometime, and that it 1 ever smoked so much as one cigarette, that would mean just one little Inch of lung power that I'd need sometime and wouldn't have." Think that over, young folks, and see how much truth is expressed in a few words. The following is taken from an editorial in The Pittsburgh (Pa.) fost or May , i03, a little over twenty-seven years ago, and Is not the argument of some enthusiastic dry of later days: "At the recent meeting of the Anti-Alcohol Congress in Berlin, it was stated by Dr. Delbruck of Bre men (Germany), the president of the congress, that beer-drinking as a means of combatting alcoholism has been clearly shown to be a failure. "It leads often to the use of dis tilled liquors, but In itself produces all the evils of whiskey. 'Of 149 patients who were treated in a North German private asylum for drunkards, 41 had been alcoholized,' said Dr. Delbruck, 'by drinking spir its, 30 by wine drinking, and 78 or more than half by the excessive consumption of beer.' I "The belief that delirium tremens was unknown among beer drinkers was a mistake. It was impossible to convey by statistics the extent of misery caused by what he described as 'beer alcoholism.' Prof. Cramer, of Gottingen, held that the alcohol habit is curable if taken in time and treated at a suitable drunkards' asylum." BUILDING PROGRESSES. Superstructure of the new two story building to house the Case mortuary on the corner of Gale and Center streets has been completed and side walls and roof are being constructed. The work is being pushed rapidly. The wooden struc ture will be finished with brick veneer.
