which he knows will deprive him
of the drug.
I'm that respect he differs from
the victims ofother habits which
tend to run down society. He
will not divulge under any circum-
stances, the source ofhis drug SUD-
ply, and the men who deal in it
sell with the assurance that their
lawbreaking will not be divulged.
Il could not begin to define the
class Of men and women who are
addicted to the use Of cocaine in
its various forms, continued Mr..
Stillman. The listruns from the
professional man and society wo-
man down to the dregs of the
slums. In many instances its use
IS begun innocentIy, and l believe
that many take the drug through
prescriptions given by doctors and
never know what they are taking
even when the habit has grown
we'll upon them. I have known
such cases"
In Maryland and other Southern
states the hold which cocaine has
upon the negroes is terrible. The
practice Of shutting the drug was
introduced by the negros Of the
South, who, in some way, got to
using it. Undoubtedly, they were
given to the practice Of inhai1ing
through the nostrils by their pow
erty, which forbade the ownership
of a hypodermic syringe and the
additional cost of the liquid solu-
ton of the drug.
Formerly the habit existed only
among the city negroes, but it has
now reached the country districts,
and the decentralization which it
has caused there is largely respon-
sible for them leaving the country
and focking to the cities, leaving
the farms without hands TO work
them.
The last days ola cocaine fend
are something too horrible for
tongue to describe.
A physician, in speaking of the
effect of the drug said;
IF it could only be described in
all its remorseful torture, the
sleepless nights, the chills and aw-
full shiverings and deadly faint
ness, the whole body shrieking
with every broked nerve to be given
the nutrition of which is has been
so shamefully cheated-could all
this be told, the world might take
the lesson home and be on its
guard,
1.-The fend i'll his last stages is
pltiful to behold. He has but the
one idea-to get his accustomed
portion of the drug. Failing in
this, the world becomes dark, the
absence of friends impresses itself
upon his wandering mind, his ut
ter desolation looms before him in
ghostly form. 1t is no wonder
that he turns his faltering step to
the water front, there to seek the
lasting oblivion which even his
precious drug in lifetime could not
supply.
"Sometimes his poor, weak
limbs find the trip to the water
front too severe a tax, and in the
rebellion of abused nature totter
and drop the enfeebled body in
some out-of-the-way alley.
The miserable thing that was
once a man is found the next morn.
ing and sent away by the police to
the morgue. If they take the
trouble to hold an inquest the yer
dict is a mere prefunctory died
of starvation and exposure" but
the doctor who views the body
the tragedy of life is shown to
him at glance. "

OIL WELLS
TO RESUME
United to Connect Pumping
Stations at Once.
Local Office Ordered to Again
Put Field in Active Condi-
tion-Prosperity in Flor
ence Field Assured.

The Denver Office Of the United Oil
company tins morning comm unicsted
With the local Office ordering that all
pumping stations that were dis
msbtled last fall be again equipped
and connected so that the wells can
be started up with but short delay
The information was readily Impaired
to Field Superintendent Johnston and
he will comply with the orders forth
with.
just prior to election day the indie
pendent producers we're called into
the United's local office and advised
that the price of their oil instead of
being 81 per barrel world hereafter
be but ninety cents. This cut was &C
cepted but was displessing to the pro-
ducers Then came orders for the
wells to be shut down, the United
C.aimibS tHht tHtre was al over pro-
duction of oil. All the wells were
closed bat the independent wells were
soon opened and the United has since
been buying the oil. but few weeks
ago they were advised that another
cut was necessary and accordingly
their produce WAS slsshed ten cents
more. bringing 1t TO eighty cents.
Since the first close down the Uni:.
ed has kept most of its wells dormant
and the orders received today will
put them on the active list again
The shut down threw ont of employ
ment about twenty-five experienced
men in addition TO large number of
roustabouts. When the wells are again
opened these idle men will be put
back to work.

HEATH GONE EAST.
Railroad Promoter Leaves County
In Interest Of Enterprise.

II Interest ol Enterprise.
George " Heath. Of the Great
Western Railway company. which
has been organized and incorporated
for the purpose of building q broad
gauge railroad from this county to
Colorado Springs and later from
there south to Texas. has again gone
east in the interests of this great
enterprise. which. when completed
will put Florence aud Fremont coun-
~ in general on a more substantial
basis than ever before. -. 49,. s.
The mstter OF raising the money
necessary to put the road through. II
is understood. is not the cause Of the
present trip east as this has already
been assured. The preliminaries are
not yet IS complete as Mr.. Heath
would have them and il is for this
reason that he has gone east.
The building OF this road is a GER
tsinsy and IL now stands the people OF
Florence in hand to get together aud
bid for the terminus of the Great
Western railroad. Both this and
Canon City will be given an opportu-
nifty to secure this privilege and
although the people of the county seat
city are not saying ANYTHING about
the road through its newspapers you
can rest assured tast they are working
to their own advantage and that un-
less some CONCESSIONS are made by the
people of Florence we will get the lit
tie emo of the deal.
The coal areas of the Cuckoo mine,
in which Mr. Heath is heavily
interested have recently been devei-
oped to monstrous proportions aud il
is proposed to so equip this great
property thEt one OF the largest
tonnages maintained by any coal
mine in the county will be extracted
from it. Vast Improvements are to
be made there.
A. f. Meyers of this city is now
grazing TO- spur to connect the
Rio Grande with the Cuckoo mine aud
this is really the commencement of
the road that is to be put through
to Colorado Springs
Before Mr. Heath left this county
for the east few days ago he contlded
to friend that he expected to have
the work of grading for The line COM
menced within six months from the
time he left. 1t can not be said at
this time whether the machine shops
for the road are to be located in this
county but If they are Florence with
a little extra push might just as well
have them as to let the shops go to
Canon City.
