"Wood Alcohol.
"They can't push It Into me that wood
alcohol kill ererybody that Roes up against
It," said a man who .has soldiered both In
the army and the navy, "it Isn't the kind
ot boose that Id pick out If I had my
choice, but there's plenty of corked up
tuft that's worse than wood alcohol.
"That vino that you get down In the
Philippines, for one thing. I'd rather drink
straight-out wood alcohol, any day, than
the vino we used to lap up. for need of
something better, down around Mindanao.
"Wood alcohol doesn't make a man mean
and mu.sy. It Just stretches him out.
quick and busJnpsslike, and be done with It.
But take four drinks of that Luion vino
and you'll dig your way through nine miles
of Jungle to bit your little slater. And a
vino head, compared to the come-to of a
wood alcohol souse, makes the wood alco
hol next morning seam like a pleasant ude
In a m-rry-go-round with your steady.
I've had both, and I know.
"When It comes to that, I'd rather lick
up enotifh decent wood alcohol to get that
busy and prosperous feeling than to toy
along with Mexican mescal. Queer stuff to
fool with, mescal.
'"When you get (rood and brined tip on
that, all you've got to do, three or four
days later, when you think you're sober, Is
to Joa-gle your hend right lively from side
to sld, and there you are, with a jag all
over agoln. Like to linger around your
system and give you your money's worth,
mescaj.
"Borne of that rum mads out of molasses
that you get In tha West Indies would
make a Jack rabbit spit In the face of a
Jaguar. And, what's worse. It burns out
' side as well as In.
Hot Staff.
"You can believe It or not, but there was'
H corporal of marines with our outfit at
Guantanamo who got hold of a pot of that
blackjack rum one night, and the next
morning his mustache was burned to within
a quarter of an Inch of his face, and Its
cof.or had turned from brown to a sort of
sandy, at that. He swore that the rum,
some of which trickled over hla mustache,
had done It, and nobody who'd been up
against that treacle rum doubted him.
"There's sake sold for half a yen a quart
in Japanese ports that'll make a man rob
his own ditty-box and then blame It on his
hammock mate. Tricky stuff, too, that
harbor sako of the swipes breed.
. "Tastes something like Rhine wine, and
goes down as easy as the cambric tea your
aunt used to give you when you were a
kid.' But Just when you're beginning to be
lieve that the world's pretty soft, after all,
for a man that understands how to live in
It, alp! you're gone, and then you slink off
by yourself and study up schemes to get
your most Intimate shipmates Into some
deep trouble. There Isn't any mors vindic
tive tonsil oil on earth than that rice juice
of the Japs, once you get pickled right in
It.
"But what I started to say was that
wood alcohol has different effects upon dif
ferent people. I've been swaddles and ship
mates, on land and sea, with fellows who
were lmmunes from what they're calling
wood alcohol poisoning sround here now.
They could drink wood alcohol like a Hous
ton street panhandler beaklng Into barrel
house dippers that sell for 8 cents a ladle,
'and when, they'd coma out of It they'd Just
gtvt their trousers a hitch and then try to
wheedle the cook into handing them slum
Or scouss out of mess hours.
"There was Chug fiooney, an oiler on a
ship that I made a cruise on when first I
Shipped with the sea soldiers. Chug stood
In with the ship's painter, so that he had a
good alcohol bun on most of the time not
wood alcohol as a general thing, but It
came to that once for a long stretch.
Importance of the Ship's Painter.
"The ship's painter, you see, carries the
keys to the alcohol tank on a man-o'-wor,
and he serves tha stuff out for shellac
daubing, paint blistering, and all that.,
Mon-o'-war carry tha best grain alcohol
In their tanks for this work, and if the
hip's painter likes the cut of your Jib
and the set of your Jury rig, It's pretty
soft for you on that cruise, that's all I've
grot to say.
"Most ship's painters, without ths Jimmy
Legs or any of tho rubber-jucks knowing
anything about it, keep a oovered over
, bucket of It in their lockers nil the time
for the comfort and entertainment of their
friends, and If you're there right with the
ship's pulntcr you can get a little ladlo
of It Just about any old time you feel
gummy. To fix It right, you take it to
the galley, and pour It Into a tin cup,
and the cook stakes you to some coffee out
of the j'ct that's always standing hundy.
"You can have all the highballs you
want, but if there's anything gobbler or
1 more actlony than a lump of dead-right
; alcohol thnt you know Is right, tossed into
about half a beaker of hot coffee and
mixed around, they don't sell It on ony
brach that I ever happened to get the
feel of with t jy feet, and I've been trend
ing around for a long time, I've had slugs
of It that made me feel like hiking down
to tha berth deck alley and r'pe-claylng
all the rest ot tha sea soldiers' belts al
most. I didn't do It, but I came near feel
ing Ilka It
"Tha stuff warms and cheers you right
out to the ends of your ears, and the only
thing you've got to watch for la that
you don't chuckle yourself to death think
ing of what a snap you've got In standing
in with the ship's painter.
"Well, Chug Mooney, the red-headed
oiler, was a cvs upon kings and still one
to draw with tha ship's painter, who was
a Turk himself, and for eighteen months
of tha cruise. Chug just rolled around the
engine rooms, on watch and oft, with the
closest Imitation of a continuous perform
ance auds thing every known In ths Amer
ican nuvy. Chug maced the ship's painter
for about a quart of the tank alcohol a
day during al. that time, and he only had
to stake the cook to a little of this per
diem in order to snag out all the coffee
on the side that ha needed.
"But finally we landed for a long soak,
picking up barnacles in the hnrbor of I -a
Libertad, Salvador, where the ship was
sent to watch that Ezeta revolution, which
was like the bum afterpieces of an Eighth
avenue variety show. We rolled and tossed
around there for months.
Perils of a) Drouth.
"The ship's equipment and engineer
stores ran low, and there was a lot of delay
in getting fresh stores down from the Mare
Island yard. Ona day the alcohol tank
was drained dry, and then It looked as If
Chug Mooney might ba up against It I'll
leave it to anybody If It Isn't a sad thing
for a man to have to let go, all of a suddon,
of even ba threatened with such a thing,
after he's had an eighteen months' alcohol
edge, without a day's interruption.
"Anyhow, the berth deck alleyways and
such Ilka had to be shellac daubed for
weekly Inspection, and the ship's painter
was sent ashore to get hold of any kind of
alcohol thnt ha could pick up nt the shack
of a ship chandler of La Libertad, who only
kept open an hour or so every other Thurs
day and slept the rest of the time.
"Tha best the ship s painter could do
was forty gallons of wood alcohol that
smelt like the aftermath of a Dutch picnic
In a beer garden. The wood alcohol was
all right for tho work, but the ship's painter
felt sorry for Chug, and told Chug so, when
he got back to the ship,
" 'If. thnt niiln atuiT. Chug,' said the
I ship's painter, sympathetically, 'and after
two slugs o' that the aatlmaker's mate'l)
ba after sowing you In your ear pounding
bag and tying the shot to your feet for the
toss over the side. Better wait till the
stores get down from the yard, und I'll
start you going again.
"But Chug couldn't see It that way. He
hadn't had a drink of alcohol for four whole
hours then, and the nerve cells of him were
yelling murder for more of what they'd
been uxed to for half the length of a full
cruise.
" 'Has the Juice got the Jolt that's all
I'm after wanting to know?' Chug Inquired
of his painter shipmate.
" 'As to that", replied the painter, 'It has
more than enough to Jolt you into the
bottom of Davy Jones' locker before you
could blow out a smoking lamp.'
" 'Out with a pail of it, then,' said Chug.
Chag Hits the Can.
"The painter demurred, but Chug pressed
him. Chug followed the painter around
like a dog hunting for its master for two
hours, and then the painter drew off a
quart of the wood alcohol and told Chug
to take It and the rest be on his own head.
"Ten minutes later Chug was down at
his cleaning station, using the Putz's po
made on his brlghtwork and whistling 'The
Rakes 0' Mallow' like a man possessed
of all the music in the world. He dreuned
up that quart of the pulp 'stuff, and then
tha ship's painter, reassured, fixed him
out with another quart to keep him happy
through the evening and night.
"At the call of all hands next morning
Chug hopped out of his hammock whistling
'Go to the Devil and Shake Yourself as
if he had been a white rlbboner all his life,
and when mesa call sounded he went for
the cracker hash as If he'd been marooned
for a dozen years on a guano patch In tha
middle ot the sea.
"During the next month, the stores not
arriving from the Mare Island yard. Chug
Mooney passed a good ten gallons of that
wood alcohol' through tha crack in his
face, and there wasn't a minute of the
time that his eye wasn't as bright as a
moss agate out of a small boy's pocket,
and It was whistling he was all tha time
like a lout on his way to the fair.
"And worse than that I saw later on
another packet of the line. There was an
old shellback of a gunner's, mate named
Bouquet which you'd never think it of
him,' the terrier, although he called it
Buckey who wen about the ship pickled
like a Chinese shark's fin for ten days
before anybody forard ever found out
where he got the makings of the sozz, for
he hadn't been ashore, and the cox'un,
who usually brought the wet dogs off from
the beach, was laying off on that for a
while, fearing detection.
"It was the sea-soldier corporal on guard
at the gangway who nailed the old gun
ner's mate at his source of supply in the
middle of one night, although the corporal
never reported it aft Buckey was get
ting it out of the recoil chamber of one
of the rapid fire guns. The recoil chamber
of one of those guns Is filled with half
oil and halt wood alcohol, the pulp stuff
being used because It answers the purposi
as well as the grain juice, and is three
or four times cheaper.
"Old Buok had found a way to tap It
and was drawing it as needed, to keep
his edge from dulling by contact with the
gray fogs of the north Pacific, where we
were then stationed. He had a way of
settling the oil at the bottom of hla pan
and then draining the pulp aJoohol off
into his bottle.
"Ths alcohol tasted some oily, of course,
besides carrying Its own smell and tang in
the mouth, but Buck told me after it was
all over, one night at the gangway as we
smoked, that he had never enjoyed a teiv
day bun so much in his life as he had the
one he got out of the recoil chamber' of
that gun.
"I'm not advising anybody to go in for
the pulp stuff as a beverage to go with
mealB, or even for a steady thing. I'm
only holding out for It that there's worse
paint that wood alcohol." New York Sun

THE DEATH CALL OF NIAGARA
A Physician's Tbsrry to Aecsant for tbs
Nnmber of Suicides at the Falls.
HYPNOTIC INFLUENCE OF RUSHING WATERS
Record of Elghteea Tragedies Darlaa;
the Year Peeallar restarts
Kotee Daageroas Place for
Kerroas People.
Eighteen name have been added to the
list of suicides at Niagara Falls within the
last year. There Is evidence to Indicate
that a large proportion of these persons
came here merely as vlaltors, with no other
motive than to see tha mighty cataract,
and were led to kill themselves by soma
sudden impulse.
Dr. A. L. Benedict, a specialist In nervous
diseases and former director of the depart
ment of ethnology at the Pan-Amerloan ex
position, finds the explanation of this sud
den Impulse In the hypnotic Influence of
the rushing waters. Ever since February
17, 1902, when Mlsa Alice M. Colie left the
doctor's office In Buffalo In good spirits
one afternoon and was never heard of
again except through a note picked up on
the bridge leading to Luna Island from
Ooat Island, Dr. Benedict has studied each
casjo of suicide attributed to the fails, with
the result of confirming him more and
mora strongly in the theory that the vic
tims were led to suicide by hypnotism.
"The waters are calling me," said Miss
Colie In her farewell note to her parents
and her betrothed. Dr. Benedict's observa
tions lead him to the conclusion that the
waters have called the majority of the
eighteen who took the plunge this year, ai
well as the majority of those who com
mltted suicide In other years.
"I am thoroughly convinoed that hypno
tism Is responsible for so many suicides at
the falls," said Dr. Benedict, "because
thousands have experienced the hypnotic
Influence very strongly while watching the
cataract and listening to Its hoarse, mo
notonous roar. That they were not over
powered by it to the extent of forgetting
their interests In life was their good for
tune.
"I have met many persons who have told
me that they cannot stand on one of the
bridges over the rapids or near the cataract
for any length of time without feellpg a
strong Impulse to Jump Ir. I myself would
not care to alt within sight and sound of
the rapid for any length of time, and I
think I am above the normal as far as
yielding to any hypnotic suggestion la con
cerned. It Js dangerous to sit beside the
cataract even for persons perfectly nor
mal." Nature of tbe Inllnenee Exerted.
"In what way Is the hypnotic Influence of
the falls manifested?'" Dr. Benediot was
asked.
"Monotonous stimulation of any of the
senses, except taste and smell, which ar
both chemical, produces drowsiness or
hebetude," he replied. "The only require
ment is that the stimulation be mild and
repeated and of tho same degree each time.
"You can feel this effect through the
sight, especially by looking at any bright
object, and if it keep moving regularly.
If the motion be Irregular it will not pro
duce the hypnotic effect.
"It can be produced through the hearing
In the same way. Many persosn are lulled
to sleep by music, especially If it be soft
and in a minor key.
"How these conditions are fulfilled at the
falls is best demonstrated by an examina
tion of tha places where suicides occur most
frequently. It will be found in each case
that the current at that point is swift and
strong, and moves incessantly with a wavy
motion.
"In the wave will be found bright green
colors that dance and flash in the sunlight.
Irresistibly holding the eye. Joined with
this is the hoarse, monotonous song of the
cataract.
"In these are hypnotic Influences stronger
than any but normally constituted persons
can resist. To persons suffering from nerv
ous diseases, or borne down with trouble.
it Is likely to be fatal to get within reach
of those Influences."
Resorts of Suicides.
Six places pointed out by Superlnetndent
Perry as those from which most of the
suicides have taken the fatal plunge meet
all of the conditions mentioned by Dr.
Benedict These are at Trospect Point, at
the very verge of the American falls; the
shore of the American rapids, dlreotly In
front of the little pavilion in Prospect
park; the first arch of the bridge leading
to Goat island; tha crest of the Bridal Veil
falls at I.uma island; Terrapin Point, and
the swelling rapids that tumble beneath
the bridge leading to tha third of the
Three Sisters Islands.
Prospect park attracts every visitor to
Niagara falls. Here the water Is a swell
ing current takes Its plunge Into the gorge.
At the angle of the iron fence a view is
obtained of jagged rocks below that might
well deter anybody from suicide. But ten
feet south the prospect is different.
Here the river sweeps along with ripples
ot gold and emerald, and the only hint of
ths abyss is the full round breast of the
cataract as it shimmers toward a region
of rainbows below. The motion of the
water is steady, and on sunny days it
dancea with thousands of ripples. The
roar of the torrent Is loud, but of a quality
that in oertain moods is soothing. This
Is a favorite spot for suicides.
Before the pavilion in Prospect park the
park slopes down toy the rapids. A well
trodden path leads to the water, and a
round stone affords a seat within three
feet of the brink. Overhead Is a willow
whose branches sweep the surface of the
river.
Hers is a wave that rolls over a sub
merged rock and curls Into foam at the
base. Its smooth green surface gleams as
steadily as tha revolving mirrors used
by nerve specialists to hypnotise patients.
The sign containing tha warning te visi
tors "Do Not Venture Into Dangerous
Places," is omlted here, though according
to tha advocates of tha hypnotlo theory,
this is one of the most dangerous places
on ths entire reservation. More aulcldas
are recorded from this place than from any
other point at the falls.
Tales of Tragedy.
In the summer house nearby and on the
flat rock near the water aide women's
hats with notes pinned to them have fre
quently bean found and have told all that
is known of tha end of some traglo story.
The water la so deep and tha ourrent so
strong that tha person who throws himself
In here never gete out
With the same aspect the rapids emerge
from the first arch of the bridge leading
to Ooat Island. A grassy bank Invites
visitors to alt and watch the speotacla.
The spot is screened from the publlo view
by shrubbery and the bank Is so steep
that one can lie upon It at ease and watch
the sunbeams play among the myriad
ripples.
Ths water pours from beneath the arch
In a flood that is higher In ths center than
at the sldea. The crest la only about a
rod from the bank, and here, again, a
graceful billow breaks perpetually Into
foam. The eye Is drawn Irresistibly to thla
one spot
The same conditions obtain at Luna Isl
and. It la a matur of only a moment to
climb over the railing that guards the
brink and leap Into the rapids. ,
Below Is the fury of the Cave of the
f Winds. The Indescribable din floals up In
a muffled form, and the imagination, es
pecially If it be overwrought, can readily
pick out a message from tl-e vagje a ands
that nil the air. It was at this place that
Miss Colie left the explanation: 'Tho
waters are cHlrg me."
8o powerful is the spell of the waters at
Terrapin Point that men have been known
suddenly to become Ir-ajie and to go dnno
lng to their death. Within plain view ot
the spot the green walls of the Horseshoe
falls shimmer Incessantly.
Unknown disturbances send the spray In
fantastio clouds toward the senlth at regu
lar Intervals. If the waters call else where
they may be said to command hero.
Where the swelling torrent rushes be
neath the little bridge between the farther
of the Three Bisters Islands, Ideal condi
tions for hypnotism are found. Here Is the
rock upon which the victims sit until the
fascination of the place works It spell. Ths
thunder of the cataract below is blended
I with the roar of the waters as they tumble
past these Islands. Here Is the monotonous
stimulation of the senses, both of sight and
sound, producing drowsiness or hebetude.
What vlslors come to the drennjer on the
verge ot this watery turmoil Is a matter
for the Imagination. But It Is not hard to
I understand how one might watch the sun
beams play upon the bosom of a shimmer
ing billow until he becomes lost to all other
earthly considerations and la drawn to sui
cide. So far as Is known, nobody has ever com
mitted suicide here who has seen the gorge
and whirlpool before seeing the falls.
It la easy to understand why this might be
a significant fact with reference to the
hypnotlo theory, for to see them first is to
prevent any illusion that the conditions
above the falls might otherwise suggest.
It Is not difficult to understand how tho
waters above the falls might promise peace
to the sorrowful, but what peace can bo
hoped for when one looks Into tho abyns at
tho foot' of tho cataract?
For this reason visitors subject to ner
vous dlsordors are often cautioned by their
physicians, if they must visit the falls, to
taks the gorge trip first. One susceptible
to hypnotlo Influence will not be so open
to suggestions of rest when he sees the
whirl and tumult below the falls.
Such. In a general way, Is tha explana
tion advanced by Dr. Benedict to account
for at least a portion of the suicides at
Niagara falls.-New York Sun.
Kevr Gun of Vnet Power.
The Inventor of the new American gun is
a man named J. Hamilton Brown, though
the work of constructing this particular
six-Inch experimental piece '. It charge of
Colonel John M. Ingaila, retired, U. 8. A..
an artillerist of high standing and reputa
tion. riMnlta the incredulity of contemporary
gun builders Colonsl Ingaila and the officers
with him assert that this six-Inch gun will
throw thirty miles a projectile weighing 100
Bounds, which will plerco a six-Inch steel
target. A ten-inch gun of this construction,
with a powder chamber of 14,2o9 cubic
inohM and using SCO pounds of smokeless
powder, would hurl a 800-pound projectile a
distance of flfty-nins mncs.
TncreaslnB- this ratio, a slxteen-lnch gun
would have an extreme range of more than
100 miles, and equipped with such coast de
fense rifles England and France could shell
each other across the channel.
