CHICAGO, March 11.-One of the
worst windstorms of the season struck
Chicago early yesterday and during the
two hours that it was at its height dam
aged property throughout the city to the
extent of S115,OOO. Many heavy plate
glass windows were blown in. Telegraph
and telephone companies were the worst
sufferers, and it will be some time before
order can be restored. Thousands Of
poles were blown down, and Chicago was
practically isolated from the west and
northwest by telephone and telegraph.
The long distance telephone service
was crippled so badly that it was of little
value. Up to a late hour last night nci-
Their Milwaukee nor Minneapolis could be
reached by long distance telephone.
The storm is believed to have been
most severe in southern Wisconsin.
Along Il short stretch of the Milwaukee
road in southern Wisconsin 800 tele-
graph poles are down.
Reports from many points. in Indiana
and Kentucky also Indicate heavy dam
age from the storm. The Western Union
and Postal Telegraph companies suffered
severely by fallen poles. 1t was esti-
mated that there were not fewer than
1900 poles in the city thrown down by
the fury of the wind and storm. Service
almost as far west as Omaha was stop
ped until late in the evening.
At the life saving station at the mouth
of the Chicago river it was considered
the worst gale which has struck Chicago
harbor since 1894. The water, dashed in
to fury, came up to the life saving station
and flooded the floor for the first time in
- wears.

It was wise man who said that wee

dangerous Of vice.
So II is with the smoking of opium
a,,d here happens the queer construction
of the statute Of Montana covering these
cases.
Law Fails to Reach.
IT Is plainly against the law to keep
an opium den. 1t is against the law
TO gather two or more persons together
for the purpose of smoking opium.
Every time that a man III the pres
| ence of one or more others takes little
opium off the card upon which the drug
, comes and puts in on needle to neat
and smoke in the pipe, that man acts
contrary to the peace and dignity OF
the state Of Montana and contrary to the
statute enacted to prevent opium smok-
| ing.
But there is loophole. 1t is not
crime to smoke opium by ones self in
ones own room. Each time that opium
smokers are arrested now they plead
as a defense that they were smoking
! in their own rooms or that they were
not smoking at all.
| The presence of the pipe and the rest
