A FREAK CHICKEN

About On.

A farmer at Elwood, Ind, reports
a freak chicken with four complete
legs. Two, with which it walks, are
like other chicken legs, while the
others are on it's back, where the
wings ought to be. The latter are
fairly developed, and when the foul
is turned upside down" it can walk
on its freak legs but is rather wabbly

EFFECTS OF COCAINE,

Cocaine affects one. in most
dreadful manner. Officer johnson
recently arrested a negro from
Cowpens who was under its infu-
ence, and he frankly admits that he
was the worst man he ever had to
handle: The fellow was like a. raw
ing maniac. A man does not go to
sleep and sleep the effects of cocaine
off. If he did there would be some
peace around the Jail when a CO.
caine fiend is locked up. There is
no sleep in them. They are wide
awake, raYing 1naniacs for the time
being, and give no end Of annoy
ance at the station house.
Of late a special search is. made of
cocaine suspects before they are
locked up, and the search often re-
veals a little box Of the disastrous
rug. The fend keeps these boxes
from time to-, time and goes. back
and gets a reflling Of the prescrip-
tion that bears the same number and
name as the box.
Speaking of. the cocaine evil a
gentleman said Thursday: I'm Or
angeburg county, in the lower, part
Of the, state, some years ago the, CO.
caine. habit became SO bad, among
the negroes that it increased. the
difficulties Of the labor question so
that the law had to take up the
matter and punish those who sold it
to; the ,darkies in violation of the
statutes. In: Orangeburg county,
however. there were q number of
white men who went about and
made it busi..o- of selling cocaine
to the negroes. They were, soon
caught up with, and q stop, put to
their unlawful peddling."
What the city administration is
after, said an. official, is to see If
there cannot be some restriction
put upon the sale Of such indiscrimi-
nate stuff. The prescriptions in
many instances are not dated. and
in no case is the amount specified.
It is hoped that some means can be
devised by which the cocaine fiends
cannot get. prescription filled but
once, and if they want more will
have to, apply for a new order.
Then when they apply for a new
order let the merits Of their case be

+ Some time ago DR.: Maddux was
summoned before the mayor for
selling cocaine to negroes. =; He ap-
peared and produced the prescrip-
tions, which showed that he had not
violated the law The prescriptions
held by Health Inspector Cofeld do
not state the quantity of cocaine to
be sold to-: the parties naIhed on
them. ~ They read let the. parties
have cocaine when necessary, The
negroes get these prescriptions and
have them filled and reflled.' One
prisoner told Mayor Floyd that he
sold the use Of his cocaine prascrip-

THE SELLING: OF COCAINE.
The Law Does Not Seem to Reach the
Evil Of. the Case.

The.Spartanburgr Herald. says the
indiscriminate selling Of cocaine was
brought to 1.-The attention of the
County Medical association by
Health Inspector Cofield at their
;regular,,monthly meeting held Thurs
day in the halls Of the local Y.
M. C. A. Prescriptions were pro-
duced which were given by DIR. ].
D. Orr and filled by: Dr.! w. p: Mad
dux. These prescriptions had been
given to prisoners at the. city. Jail,
and in each case the party. was. an
addicted cocaine user.
= Mr.. Ceefeld asked that the Medi-
cal association take the matter up
and see if something could not, be
done to prohibit this indiscriminate
sale The association, after some
discussion on the matter, agreed
that there had been ne direct viola
;tion Of the law, either. on, the. part
Of DR.. Orr or Dr. Maddux., How
ever, it was held that, there was a
moral violation, and the association
turned the matter over to a commit

next meeting.
