MEXICAN WEED DANGEROUS
"Marihuana" Habit Gets Hold Of Men
and Permanent Dementia
Often Results.

Manuel Guerrero and Florenoio Pine
had the "marihuana" habit, says the
Mexican Herald, and for the last few
weeks had been smoking big cigarettes
in which tobacco was mixed with the
dangerous weed. Tuesday afternoon
the two men smoked cigarettes COM
posed OF tobacco in smaller proportion
than marihuana, and after few min,
utes ran amuck. They went out into
the street shouting, vociferating and at
lacking everybody. First they marched
hand in hand. declaring that they were
the brayest' men on earth and would kill
anybody who dared to say word to
the contrary, but at last Pine declared
that he was still Drawer than his friend,
and fight followed, the two receiving
dangerous wounds. They were cap
tured and sent to the hospital, where
they had to be put into straightjackets.
1t is feared that the two men, II they
recover from their wounds, will lose
their minds permanently, as is the case
often with marihuana smokers.

dating from the seventeenth century,
was yet in perfect state OF preserva-

urally the requirements of the law with
regard to apparatus of this description
had not been complied with in this case,
but who was the offender? The vicar
in charge Of the building? The sacristan
who visited weekly? Interrogated, the

will be proceeded against.

to-day?" "How's Tom to-day?' And
the answers were: ooh, he's looking

thing similar, again and again. When
he sat up the observant patron asked
his barber II 1t meant anything. "Yes,"
replied the knight of the brush and
shears, with a smile. "It's to find Out

JOURNALISM is GREAT FIELD
George Meredith, of England, Says It
Almost Takes the Place Of
Government.

George Meredith, the father Of con-
temporary English letters, has been CIV
ing vigorous expression to his opinions
on current affairs.
Regarding journalism he said: ut is
most likely that practical journalists,
like practical politicians, will have to go
largely on opportunist lines. Though
most of my work has been imaginative,
/ have done certain amount Of journal
ism and l recognize its difficulties. But
1t has extraordinary power, too. and
great opportunity for fine influence. 1t
has almost taken the place of govern
ment. 1t is true that the editorials in
nearly all the newspapers have fallen
off very much only quite recently in
power and character. don't know what
the reason for that is, but still newspa-
pers have very great influence. The
power and functions of government are
undoubtedly diminishing. don't know
whether we shall reach the time when
there will be no government at all, as
some people hope, but certainly that is
the tendency. Tyranny, which Is the
complete form Of government, has been
tried and proved to be impossible. we
shall never have that again unless the
democracy betrays itself"

rafters in independence hall from which
the Liberty bell has hung, says the Rec
ord Reserve Officer Orr, who is sta

that the absence of this treasured relic
makes any difference in the number of
visitors. Furthermore, these visitors
now spend about as much time in look
ing at the case as they do when the
bell hangs inside. Sightseers, as rule,
plan to devote SO much time to GER
tain thing, and so true to their itinerary
are they that the mere fact that it

how they take it out, and other details

VAST TRAVEL IN LONDON.
Estimated That 500, 100000 separ-

sengers Annually.

There are 5000 miles of railway in
greater London, and it is estimated that
something like 00,O00,000 separate jour-
neys are made by passengers annually.
The number of Journeys on an average
week day is over 100000. An idea Of
the vehicular traffic in the streets may
be gathered from the statement that
in u hours 16,054 vehicles of all kinds
passed particular spot in Piccadilly,
and full service of $50 buses pass
the Bank of England in an hour. The
number of passengers carried by the
London trans in a year is over SEQ. O00,-
900. A census taken Of the number Of
pedestrians who crossed over the London
bridge on a certain day showed that they
totaled 1902, and in 1919 hours during
a day in April last year 24s,015 people
crossed the roadways at the bank.

WHITE MICE CAUSE PANIC.
Women at Atlantic City Flee in Con-
fusion from the Harmless
Little Rodents.

Willie Fitzgerald, a newsboy of At
Ilantic City. N. j., was carrying six white
mice in box down the board walk one
day recently, when a rolling chair hit
him, causing him to drop the box. The
lid flew open and out jumped the mice.
The walk was crowded with hundreds
OF men, women and children, and the
feminine contingent scattered in all d.
rections. Neither direction nor the
manner of going was considered, the
women giving vent to heartrending
yells.
Miss Eda Lintman, of Lancaster, Pa,
who learned much about athletics while
at Vassar, made bound for the railing
on the board walk cleared it and landed
, on the beach. Mr.. and Mrs. John H.
Ivans, who came from Pittsburg on their
honeymoon, were rudely separated,
Mrs. Ivans made off down the board
walk, and was only found after three
| hours search.
An aged invalid woman, who was be-
ing wheeled down the board walk in a
rolling chair, forgot her ailments, gave
a leap from the carriage and ran up an
adjacent avenue. Another woman, who,
1t is estimated, weighed close to ESQ
pounds, slipped as she started to run,
and landed with all her weight on one

SAILOR SOLVES A PUZZLE.
Tells How Birds in Midocean Get
Fresh Water During Rain
Storms.

elderly sailor to a Portland Oregonian
man, u often used to wonder, SEEM

what they done for fresh water when
they got thirsty. One day squall an
swersd that question for me. 1t was q
hot and glitterin' day in the tropics, and
in the clear sky overhead a black rain
cloud appeared all Of sudden. Then.
out of empty space over a hundred sea-
birds came dartin' from every direc-
ton. They got under the rain cloud
and they waited there for about ten
minutes, circliE' round and round, and
when the rain began to fall they
throwed their heads back and they
drank their fill. In the tropics, where
the great seabirds sail thousands Of
miles away from shore, they get their
drinkin' water in that way. They smell
out storm long way of; they travel
a hundred miles, maybe. to get under it,
and they swaller enough raindrops to
keep them goin'."

Lumbermen's Profits.

BY reason of a family quarrel
between the brothers Shevlin-one of
which, at least, Thomas H., is very
prominent Minneapolis lumberman-
some secrets of tile lumber business
have been brought to the light that
may prove interesting reading to
farmer consumers of lumber. The
quarrel resulted In protracted law
suit Of huge proper lions, and the
secrets referred to were brought out
in evidence given: The record Of one
mill for one year showed that the cost
OF making lumber, from log to pile,
was SO. 10 per thousand, and to make
it cost that much $4,000 OF permanent
improvements were charged to expense
account. 1t was also testified that
the selling price Of that lumber in
the mill yard was from sl3 to sl6 a
thousand. That this mill was not an
exceptionally prof table one among
the many operated by the Company is
indicated by the dividend that it was
testified it declared in one year, viz,
240 per cent.
This is not the whole story, but
perhaps it is as much as those farmers
can stand at one dose who have ever,
and with great eagerness and delight,
voted to continue and even enlarge
tne tariff protection to our lumbermen
that they must have they assert and
farmers evidently believe--or be COM

CURE FOR vARlcosE VEINS
French Physician Finds That Walk
ing is an Almost Infallible
Remedy.

Dr. Marchais, of the Paris hospitals,
has Just submitted the French Acad-
envy of Medicine a somewhat novel treat
ment for the cure of yaricose veins in
the legs. He had observed that among
rural postmen, obliged to go long dis
tances on foot, there were few men who
suffer from yaricose veins and those
who had varicose veins quickly re-
covered from them. Now, as rule. pa
tients with yaricose veins are advised
to walk as little as possible. but DR..
Aarchais has changed all this and as the
result Of experiments he has success
fully carried out on 81 patients he as
serts that the most effective cure for
varicose veins in the legs consists OF
walking. He shows that, in order to
obtain lasting results, it is necessary
to go back to the cause OF the affection.
which is the apprehension Of the blood
in the veins. 1t is, he says, possible
even for those badly afflicted to cure
themselves by rational daily walking
exercises, preceded by massage OF the
legs
