THE INDIAN DATuRA SEED.
Poison That Ia often Used by Robbers
to Overcome Their Victims.

10 bNofGhhhp lAtlI NltAihhs
II has been remarked that one Of the
grentest objections to the suppression OF
hemp cultivation for smoking purposes
In India is that Il would drive the natives
to the use OF more dangerous sedatiycs.
Ono OF tho drugs which the coolio is the
most prone TO substitute for his beloved
hemp, when the latter "a not available Is
the datura seed For many years 1t has
been known 20 the police and those en-
gagged In modicu-legal examinations that
one of the fnyorite methods adopted by
Indian thieves 90 rob their victims has
been tho administering of datura. The
stupefying effects OF this drug enable
them TO cnry on their depredations, and
at the Same time avoid in most cases, the
fatal results which attend the use OF other
poisons.
Thesymptoms present in the individuals
affected were loss OF consciousness, dila-
tion Of the pupils, picking at tho bed
clothes, attempts to grasp imaginary OBJ
ieCts, and from tho movements of their
hands they all appear to be drawing ont
threads nom the tips Of their fingers
When taken upon an empty stomach, the
effects Of the poison arc usually disccrni-
bio within 10 minutes but In the case OF
well nourished person half an hour or
more elapses before It's effects are peroep-
tible The rareness of fatal cases In con-
nection with the use OF the poison is one
Of the chief factors in its selection by the
native criminal.
Tho datura seeds may be gathered al
most anywhere in India, and also easily
| purchased in tho bnzuara; so IL ia hardly

instrument for the furthering OF nefarious

Whoever | buy canary it seems
to be bird that is especially subject
to colds and pneumonia, and it is only
by the exercise of the greatest care
that | can keep il from succumbinr to
some pulmonary trouble.
Yet the canary bird sellers have
their wares for sale in the streets in
the coolest weather almost entirely
unprotected from the wind. They
stand around with them for hours and
no bad result seems to come to it.
How is It?
| give it up. There must be some
conspiracy between the dealers and
the birds by which the latter die as
soon as they are bought, compelling
the purchaser TO invest in more cana

the little yellow fellows that they were
capable OF so much treachery.
Dealers bring them over from Eu-
rope with very few precautions against
disease or accident. If | leave one Of
my canaries alone for ten minutes at
a time, however, he swallows a piece
of rag and chokes to death, or the cat
gets him. suppose the whole secret
of the thing consists in knowing what
you are about. From results am led
to believe that the importer and the
open air dealer know what they're
about and that | don't, at least as far
as the canary birds are concerned
