— The subjoined: item from last week’s Plymouth Democrat is in a measure applicable to this town, fer which reason we reproduce it in these columns: “Horace Corbin has instituted suit against the city for damages 1n the sum of two hundred dollars occasioned by hogs running at large and ‘rooting’ up the ground and grass in and about his premises. The city has ordained that his porcine highness shall not run at large, and if the city authorities permit him to do so and he penetrates the subsoil on the landed estate of parties residing within the city limits and damage results therefrom, the guardians of the public weal must ‘put up or shut up’ th¢ hogs and liquidate all damages that may result from a failure to enforce the ordinance. The hog nuisance is the wors{ nuisance the people of the city have to contend with. An old hump-backed female porker, with a grisly noge|a yard long, can do more damage in ten minutes than can be repaired in a year. -If it is necessary, and it is; to have a hog ordinance, let ‘%‘iformto the letter.” e T S @W.J',“f ; '(~lw -

The Food Value of Alcohol. - WHAT REV. A, E, MAHIN HAS TO SAY

ON THE SUBJECT..

A large and appreciative audience assembled at the M. E. Church on ‘Tueaday evening for the purpose of hearing Rev. A. E. Mahin deliver an address on alcohol as a food. That gentleman opened the lecture by saying that it was understood that he. would speak on the subject of food value of alcohol, and that he would assume the negative on that question. The Reverend genfleman then pro-1 ceeded to say: “In giving my assent to the negative of this question, as I_ do, I do not wish to be understood ‘as claiming that it is not a food, simply" because not sufficient in and of itself to supply the amount of nutriment necessary to the well being of the physical man, Man needs a variety of foods, and permanent health, strength and vigor cannot be maintained by one article alone. To bring the question of its food value clearly before us, I wish to ask, and, so far as-I may have evidence before me, to answer the following seven questions: -

“1, Does alcohol nourish and build up tissue? “2. Is it a heat or force-evolving food ? 3 5 “3. Does it aid digestion? = “4, Poes it produce fat? : “5. Is it an accessory or auxiliary food? A -} “6. Do the tests of dietetic and sanitary experience show it to be a food ? ~ “7. Does it delay the metamorphosis of tissue, and thus in a secondary way result in nutrition? - : “These seven questions, I believe, cover the whole ground. If alcohol is not in some one of these seven ways a direct benefit and blessing then certainly it cannot be classed as a food.” He then proceeded to argue the question as to “ What is alcohol? ” and showed up the fallacy of supposing that because alcohol may contain some of the same elements that enter into our foods, that thereforeit was a food. - In the discussion of the question at issue he said he was mainly dependent upon the writings of two physicians for his authority: Dr. B. W. Richardson, of England, and Dr. Ezra M. Hunt, of the U.S., who ‘certainly could not be classed as “one-horse doctors,” as Dr. Knepper had seen fit to call one of the parties quoted at the last meeting. The speaker then read from works by these two eminent physicians lengthy arguments upon the subject, which space will not allow us to publish. Each one of the seven questions proposed-in the opening of his address, were, however, taken up separately in regular order, and fully answered in the negative. “Upon. what rational prineiples then,” he went on to say, “can it be claimed that alcohol is a food in ary appreciable sense? It may be claimed that if it nourishes even to an infinitessimal extent, that it is a food; but bear.in mind that it will be just as difficult to prove the existence as the non-exist-ence of that infinitessimal degree; and that-the smaller the-amount of nutriment claimed, the stronger the. probability that such nutriment was supplied by something else than alcohol.” - And-again: “-Phere has been much of delusion and fa;la.cy in the popular mind with regard to the effects of alcohol in the animal organism. Dr. Richardson well says: ‘Once more I would edrnestly impress that the systematic administration of alcohol for the purpose of giving and sustaining strength san entire delusion. I am not going to say that occasions do not arise when an enfeebled or fainting heart is temporarily relieved by the relaxation of the vessels which alcohol, on its diffusion through the blood induces; but that this spirit gives any perceptible increase of power by which men are enabled to perform more sustained work is & mistake as serious as it is universal.” - = . ;

In conclusion he said, in quoting from the Family Health Annual, that “there is now no authority who would seriously maintain that alcohol is a food. Instead of being a fuel to the human body, it is a great consumer of fuel” Men, he claimed, were brought up to certain beliefs, and were apt to stick to their side of the question with great pertinacify. He knew there were ministers in the South who, before the war, believed that slavery was right, and in accordance with the Bible, and they were honest in their convictions, just the same as there were physicians who combatted the idea that alcohol was not a food. ' - Prof. Luke being called on, he said he would not attempt to answer the arguments presented this evening as the hour was late. If the club, however, was desirous of hearing the other side of the question argued he would do so, and would be able to prove just the opposite from that which Rev. Mahin had been trying to prove. He thought the question, on the other side, had been presented as fairly and strong as it could be, but at the same time he was of the opinion that the speaker had failed to touch the real question at issue, and that, was ¥ Why do s 0 many men drink ?” He proposed to argue that question, and at the same time point out the remedy. LR

- After some discussion as to the propriety of continuing the discussion,— whether it would be detrimental o the cause of temperance or mot—it was voted that Prof. Luke be requested to prepare -an address, to be deliv ered at the next meeting of the Club, on the subject of “Why do 8o miany men drink?” and in this address was to be included any arguments he might wish to make on the subject of alcohol as & food. = i f il

Death of a Promising Young Physician. Dr. O. L. Latta, son of the well known surgeon and physician of Goshen, Dr. Latta, died at his. home on Saturday evening, Nov. 2, after a severe sickness of more than two weeks’ duration, The Elkhart Review says: “His disease was originally brain fever, but at the last there seemed to have been a complication of maladies. He was conscious only at intervals during his illness, and his death is all the more sad on this account. The deceased 'was a man of great promise; and upon Irim seemed to have descended the habits of mind and body which made his father so successful in his profession, The young man was ambitious even to the cost of his life as it now appears. . Last summer, during the extreme heat, he was sent to St. Louis with a company of ‘military of which'he was the assistant surgeon, and he told some friends that he suffered a partial sunstroke from which he did not seem to recover. 1t may be that this was the seed of the disease which ended his young and promising life. The death is especially sad, and the afflicted family have the sympathy of the whole community where they live in an unusual degree. The whole of Goshen was sorrowful at the news of his illness, and young and old inquired’ anxiously for the first signs of improvement in his condition. But the end has' come, and the life that promised so much has gone out. The death of such a promising man is a public calamity, and those who knew Mr. Latta feel a sorrow that words cannot measure.” o

In crossing the track, for the purpose of going to the telegraph office for orders, Mr. Pawling slipped, and as the train from which the locomotive had just been detached was yet in full motion, he had no time to raise himself up and make his eseape.’ The cars thus passed over his left leg, ¢crushing it in a shocking manner, and inflieting minor injuries upon other parts of his body. ' The unfortunate man was ime mediately conveyed to the depot, and Dr. Williams summoned 'to dress the limb. .. Upon examination the Doctorat omce declared that amputation: was unavoidable. ' /The sufferer was thereupon removed to the Hartsuck mansion, and the operation performed. He lingered 'until last evening, when death relieved him of further suffering.

. —E. B. Gerber, who is justly en’ titled to being pronounced the most enterprising citizen of Ligonier, has just completed another building—the third one for this season. The result of his enterprising spirit this year is: (1) McComber’s livery stable; (2) north third of the Union Bloek; (3) ‘blacksmith shop to be occupied by Peter Regula. At this mement we cannot recall all of Mr. Gerber’s enterprises during the past eight or ten years, further than to mention that the foundry and handle factory are among his contributions to the growth and development of Ligonier. It is rarely the case that men like Mr. Gerber are properly appreciated, yet we know of no one who has in any manner or form attempted to withhold from him the well-merited praise of having done much more than his share foward making Ligonier what it is to-day. ith s
