for many years in Burmah, and it has
lately been suggested that the prohibi-
ton be extended to other provinces OF
British India. The wisdom of this step
is questioned by those who know the
people and country of India, whore the
practice of ganja smoking has existed
from time immemorial, and among GER
tain sects of Hindoos, ascetics and re-
ligious nendicants, hemp intoxication
is habitually INDUCED in. 1t would be
impossible, too, to suppress the growth
of the plant Furthermore. it is thought
that its prohibition might induce the
use of still more noxous drugs India
abounds with plants growing wild from
which drugs can be procured which are
more deleterous in their effects than
ganja One such plant is the dhatura
ststramonium), the seeds of which are
already used to intensity the narcotic
effects of bhang, liquid preparation
of hemp leaves: and if the use of ganja
were suppressed altogether dhatura
might be largely resorted to by the
poorer classes as means of satisfying
their craving for stimulants. The
probable result OF the present agitation
will be to restrict the consumption of
the drug as far as pos sible.-N. Y. Adj

The Smoking of the Indian Hemp IL the
Coolies Chief Solace.
All those who have yielded them
selves to the fascination OF Monte
Cristo" have an ineffaceable recollec-
ton of the wonderful cave scene in
which the guests of Dantes are placed
under the voluptuous influence of has
heesh. Hasheesh is a kind of greenish
jelly made from hemp. and cunningly
favored, and it is said by its votaries tc
afford very short pathway to the
most exquisite sensations known, and
the penalties for its use are bitter and
CHASTITY in proportion.
A milder form of the intoxication
produced by hasheesh follows the smok-
ing of the leaves of ''ganja," or the
hemp plant This plant is grown in
many parts of Asia, and SO addicted IS
the Indian Coolie to solacing himself
with its fumes that in whatever part of
the world he happens to pitch his tent,
even if only temporarily. he makes the
ganja plant occupy prominent place
in the little cultivated clearing that
inevitably surrounds his barracks
Now that the periodic fulminations
against opium are deprived by facts and
figures of much of their force the at
tention of the English government has
been diverted to the subject of ganja
consumption in India. So long ago as
1871 the deleterious effects OF ganja
were brought to the notice of the gov
ernment in India. The question has
been taken up again, and local govern
ments have been directed TO inquire
into the truth of the allegations fire.
quently made that the abuse of the
drug produces insanity and other dam
gerous effects. and they were requested
to report whether it would be expedient
to restrict the use Of the ganja or to
suppress the cultivation of the hemp
plant altogether. Upon careful con-
sideration of the opinions elected the
government of India has come to the
following conclusion IN regard to the
effect OF the drug:
1T does not appear 70 be specifically
proved that hemp incites TO crirpe more
than any other drugs or other spirits
And there is evidence to show that on
rare occasions. this drug. usually so
noxious. NAV be usefully taken There
can. however. be no doubt that its hab-
itual use does tend to produce insanity.
The total nunoer of cases OF insanity
is small in proportion TO the popuia-
ton. and not large even in proportion
To the number of FanJa smokers: bu.
Of the cases OF insanity produced by
the excessive use of drugs or spirits By
far the largest number must be a;triO-

Above the clasp the jacket was edged

skirt and lace over sleeves completing.
/ have never liked women's wearing OF
starched .'fronts'-since why should
they initiate the worst features Of

was chic and serviceable looking.
1t might be called the great year of
the Jacket How it happened, no one
knows. Certainly it was not con-
templat-d by the modistes, but the
jacket in its dozen or more different
forms has been all but ubiquitous.

the dress-one might consider calling
costume or ceremonial out-of-door
dress. 1t was of dark material, lus-
trous blue with a good deal of purple
liz it, think, and l noticed that while
the skirt fell in unbroken folds with
but moderate fullness there were FIVE
shoulder capes covering the tight
sleeves, which were covered with light
embroidery. The same embroidery
completely filed the yoke, embellished
collar and belt, and swept about the
skirt in six heavy horizontal rows.
The effect was one of much force and
color, but the useless shoulder capes
over the sleeves make one despair of
the future. They are going, yet not
gone.
That skirts are growing shorter is
something to be thankful for, or might
be, were there not so many regretta
bic tendencies in other directions. The
massing of ruffles over the hips, the
employment of wildernesses of frills
and puffs and 'pinking" and such de-
vices show that the mind of Paris is at
the furthest verge of frivolity.
What could be more grotesque-and
in costume the grotesque is always
bad-than an autumn calling dress
which caused the Lenox linden leaves
to CULVER an indignant protest one
sunny afternoon. There were three
shoulder capes and three skirts, all of

BUCKET SHOP GHOSTS.
Miserable Men Who Cling to the Skirts Of
Wall Street.

Miserable Men Who Cling to the Skirts Of
Wall Street.
A feeling of regret can not always be
repressed at the view of the broken
down merchants and small timid. i'm
pecunious spectators who frequent
bucket shops, SO called, in hope of
gain. These people do, indeed, dig
their own pitfalls, since SO long as
there exists saloon in New York
where stranger is allowed to sit and
read the papers at the price of a glass
of beer, there is no excuse for holding
down a chair in bucket shop.
The proprietor's game is, on the face,
fair enough; but the customer is so in
tent on digging his own pit that he
fails to calculate the factors of the
game. The margin required is one per
cent, and you pay one-eighth commits
sion to come in and one-eighth to come
out Therefore, when you lose dollar
you lose a whole dollar; when you win
a dollar you collect seventy-five cents.
The odds of one hundred to seventy
five are thus continually against the
customer.
Again, the customer goes entirely on
guess work. If he were to, toss Il cop
per as to whether to buy or sell, he
might be right something like half the
time; but if the odds are one to two
that stock will move in given direc-
ticn, and also one to two that guesser
will guess right, the guesser starts in
with actual odds of four to one against
him The bucket shop customer may
not be familiar with this feature of the
calculus of proba bilities, but the math-
ematical professors lay it down, and
Mr.. Proctor mentions it in his treatise
on gambling, and the prosperity of the
bucket shop seems to bear it out as a
Axed truth.
In some of these by-ways Of finance

sneers at honest and laborious poverty;
