Smokinu That Madderis.

Merihuana Is a weed used by people
OF the lower class and sometimes by
soldiers, but those who make larger
use Of 1t are prisoners sentenced TO
long terms. The use Of the weed and
its sale, especially in barracks and
prisons, ure very severely punished;
vet It has many adopts. and Indian
women cultivate 1t because they sell it
at rather high prices. Tho dry leaves
Of marihuana alone or mixed with to
bacco make the smoker wilder than .
wild beast. 1t is said that immediatel,
after the first three or four drafts Of
smoke smokers begin to feel a slight
headache; then they see everything
moving, and finally they lose all con-
troll of their mental faculties. Every
thing, the smokers say, takes the
shape Of a monster, and men look like
devils. They begin to fight, and, or
course, everything smashed is anon
ster '"killed." But there are imaginary
beings whom the wild man cannot kill.
and these inspire fear until the man Is
panic stricken and runs.-Mexican

The Curse of Cowdray.

Cogdray, once the estate of the earls
of Egmont and now in the possession

MARKET APA1HET|C
Appearance of Strength at Times in
Stock Market-SeIling Kept
Prices Down.

New York, Oct. THE speeula-
ton lapsed into apathy today and
prices vibrated within narrowing
range. There was an appearance Of
strength at times, but the effort to
| advance the permanent speculation
stocks met with the same kind of OBJ
stacle in the form of free selling as
earlier in the week. This had like
discouraging effect on those efforts.
Some specialties were held up, but
without much beneficial effect on the
general tone. Outside specialties,
the price changes at the end of the
day were trivial.
The strength Of copper indushrials
was based evidently on the advance
knowledge of the character of the
monthly report of the Copper Pro-
ducers' Association. AS soon as that
was published the advance in cop
pers stopped and the whole market
fell to stagnation. The reduction of
20,000,000 pounds in the stocks OF
copper on hand made an imposing
showing on it's face, but disappoint-
ment was felt over the manner in
which the result had been achieved
as shown by the details of the report
The deliveries into domestic con-
sumption showed moderate falling
off from the August total the increase
in the total deliveries being wholly
due to the expansion of upwards of
13,000,000 pounds in the months ex.
ports. The maintenance of the rate
of demand from foreigners was not
sufficiently assured to be confidently
counted on. The 100000 pound re-
duction for September from the high
August total, allowing for one day
less in September, indicated no such
rate curtailment of output as had
been hoped for as the result of eff
forts to bring about an agreement
amongst the principal producers. The
effect of the report was to arouse
doubts Of the efficiency of the sup
posed arrangements.

Two Distinct Views OF the Rockefeller Motive

>up .aaa, ouncem that John Il. Rockefeller had asked Con
sress to authorize and prepare the plans OF tor"aton OF a g'san-
tic charity to be endowed with hundreds Of millions OF dollars
tina, Rockefeller had accumulated during the course a long a"
,,hu,ousy successful business career, has caused a great degree OF dis
e,sion in all parts of the world.
That one man, yielding the incalculable power that comes only with
the control OF wealth almost imnea surable expresses the desire to die
oor and in so doing to urn all OF his gold to the public good Is a
matter that will have its place in history.
But what is the Rockefeller motive? What is, the principal behind
the move ito establish the greatest charity the world has c known:
Is it purely a desire to upEit and benefit the masses? Or is 1t a saNe
to eae a conscience that has much to answer
Adherents to either phase Of the question have excellent logical
grounds or their opinion.
Those who believe that Rookie rlers latest move is to afford a
balm for the troubled conscience that bears the weight OF on ears
OF oppression of the masses; of wrongs to md'v'd"a TO '""'e' "'
nesses. and to the people at large, will hold that the oil king GELS the
approach Of one whom he cannot subsidize, Of oe hon he cannot
ahsorh. orc onc who will ct tremhle at the sceptre OF wealth which the
aged man has so long used to rule a great part OF the industrial HE "
the nation. That on is Death from whose dom"'o" '"@s " ' ""
escape
Looking forward, the oil king al zee in the distance tn beekon
ing hand of Death. Looking back ward, he "a see a trail OF fortunes
demolished and added to his already plethoric store. He al see 10"
ands OF workingmen toiing as his industrial slaves; he ca see legn'
latures and congresses doing his bidding, whether that bidding be right
or wrong. He an see industries throuled, that the profits that might
have beer theirs, would revert to him.
So much for those who say that selfshness alone is the motive be
hind the Rockefeller foundation.
But o the other hand, those who hold that Rockefeller as the
instrument OF Destiny, will point to the fact that it "a necessary for
such a wizard o mas such a for II that such a charity might be IS
tabhshed. They will say that Rockefeller had this plan in lie long
years beiore he world gained an mixing OF his purpose, They will point
to he statements hat Rockerfeher mas frequently made: The world
does % understand me-; it does " know what m doing"
Destiny takes strange forms, at times. In order that France might
become a real power o eivizati. H., and a real factor in the progress
OF the world. the French Revoluho IN, with all its horrors, With its grim
and snsly s"'0otine' with its rivers OF blood vas necessary.
Perhaps that the leaven "ie charity man animate the whole race;
that education will be placed in closer reach OF the masses; that the
whole body polite nay be uplfted, such a career as that OF the oil king
was necessary
Who al answer these questions with the whole truth: Only
