The "cokev EVIL SPREADING.

"All over the south the cocaine habit
seems to be on the increase" re-
marked DR.. J. V. Hyde of New Or
leans, in Baltimore the other day.
The evil could DO greatly lessened
If not stamped out, II it were not for
the ease with which the coke fiends'
can get prescriptions for the drug.
Armed with these. they know what
drug stores will give them the beloved
stun that will for a short while give
them visions of paradise. The cocaine
habit is tenfold worse than the whisky
habit, for alcohol does not begin tc
exercise the slavish hold over its vic
Tins that the other does. The chronic
dope user will not balk at taking as
high as so grains at a time, although
for any salutary purpose one-half of a
grain is all that is necessary.
THE evil has grown to such pro-
portions that it will have to be legis-
lated against for the protection of so
ciety. | am satisfied that a great per
cent of the crime done in the south
ern states is committed by a vicious
and idle element while under the
drugs influence. and utterly oblivious
of decency and morality

"A romance Is disclosed in the an
nouncement of the engagement of
Preston Gibson, millionaire clubman.
athlete. author and playwright, to
Miss Grace Mcmillan Jarvis. a niece

ing debutantes.
The engagement was announced by
Miss Jarvis grandmother, Mrs.

state.
Mr. Gibson is a son of the late Sen
ator Randall Lee Gibson of Louisiana

To Embark Again on Matrimonial Sea

This is Mr. Gibson's second venture
on the sea of matrimony. In 1900 he
married Miss Minna Field, daughter
of Henry Field of Chicago and niece
of Marshall Field, the merchant dry
goods prince. Their wedding eight
years ago was the result of a ro-
nance dating from their meeting in
school, but the marriage turned out
unhappily and two years ago Gibson
and his first wife were divorced
Shortly afterward she married Alger-
non Burnaby, member Of the British
smart SET" and they are living in
Licestershire
After his divorce Preston Gibson
took up his residence permanently in
Washington and at once became pop
ular in the set which comprises some
of the best known beaux and helles Of
the capital. Besides being we'll
known author of Kentucky stories,
Gibson has dramatic talents, and took
a prominent part in social theatricals
But it was as an athlete and lover of
open air sports that Miss Jarvis came
to know him, and their love of athlet-
les soon ripened into the romance
which was announced recently.
The debut of Miss Jarvis last win
ter was regarded as one of the smart
est events of the season.

What Is Gon6 On at the
National Capital.
Sets New Record for Cabinet Members

Roosevelt entered the White House
Long, Morton, Moody, Bonaparte, Met
calf and Newberry; and five postmas-
ters general-Smith, Payne, Wynne,
Cortelyou and Meyer. There have
been two secretaries of state-Hay
and Root. The recent announcement
that Secretary Root is to resign as
soon as he is elected to the senate
from New York and that Assistant
Secretary of State Robert Bacon of
New York and Boston will succeed
him assures three secretaries Of state
during President Roosevelt's time.
Mr.. Roosevelt has also had three sec
retares of the treasury, three secre-
three secretaries of commerce and two
secretaries of the interior.
Grover Cleveland, the only other
president since Grants time who has
served two terms, had but 90 cabinet
officers. They were in two admins
trations, separated by four-year pc
riod. In each of his administrations
most of the men who came into Office
with him remained at his cabinet
table till the close of the four years
for which the president had been
elected. But one of the changes in
Mr. Roosevelts cabinets has been on
account of death, and that was in the
state department.
When Mr.. Bacon becomes secretary
of state three of the nine members OF
the last Roosevelt cabinet will be
men who were favorites at tennis and
have been counted as members of the
tennis cabinet.
