 Under tho plan suggested the secre- tary of the Treasury at the close of the present nscal year would be required to make an estimate of the amount of revenue that should be received from customs duties for the following fiscal year in order to meet the expenditures for that year and any deficiency ef the previous year,
 The secretary also is directed to es- timate the probable value of imports of articles on the dutiable list and de- termine what per cent of the amount of revenue to be raised bears to the estimated value of the dutiable im- ports. It is further provided that there shall be collected for such year cus- toms duties on all dutiable imports equal to such percentage of the value of the same.

 For more than two hours before sail- ing time crowds of men and women thronged the pier awaiting the ar- rival of tho newly wed Vivien Gould and her English husband. At little after II o'clock Lady Decies and her mother. Mrs. George J. Gould, walked aboard. followed by Lord Decies. George J. Gould. the Hon. MT. Barcelay. Lord Camerys. the Hon.

 Well, you can't expect much. news from me now" Lord Decies said to a swarm of newspaper men. You've filled your papers ever since came over with news of Lady Decies and myself. and I think you've picked the bone pretty clean. Whatp'
 q think I shall like England" Lady Decies said. Anyway. I shall learn to like the English country life and may come back to New York occasionally"
 Lord Decies said that after leaving make a trip up the Nile. visiting Luxor. Thebes. Assouan and the Island of Philae.
 "If 1t is not too warm we will go on to Wadihalfa. of the Second Cat aract. thence across the desert to Khartoum. on the White Nile. where shall be able to show Lady Decies the places where my regiment fought We shall be back in England by April
 
 ation.
 "The American newspapers have been delightfully."- good to me and from the way you chaps have come after me I don't see how you'll get along without me. I have taken the Duke of Manchester's house in Port Chester square, where Lady Decies will entertain during the season. Now, my dear fellow, l really must attend to some business.''
 Lord Decies said he would take his seat in the house of lords on his return to London. One question asked him, what constituency he represented in parlia- ment. He in astonishment replied:
 My dear fellow, l don't represent any constituency; my seat is hereditary, you know"
 Lady Decies seemed to feel the part ing from her parents much more today than she did when she and her husband left for Jekyl Island after the wedding. She kept very close to Mrs. Gould and cnce her mother was heard to remarks: Don't look so down-hearted, Vivien, say something"
 The young bride frightened up a good deal when the subject of her presentation al court was mentioned.
 T shall love that" she said. "and l just know that any other American girl would love 1t, too" Certainly, she will find 1t all ripping when she marches into the abbey with the other peeresses in her beautiful gown" said Mrs. Barclay, Lord Decies' sister.

AMERICAN PEOPLE . ARE DOPE EATERS"

New York, February 1s-After Dr H. W. Wiley, noted chemist of the depart ment of agriculture, had declared that We are a nation of drug flends. and are wasting billions of dollars owing to care less regard for health. Dr. Eugene H. Porter. commissioner of health of Now York state: Prof. A. c. Abbott of tho department of hygiene at the University of Pennsylvania: George L. Flanders. president of the association of the state nnd national food dairy department, and other prominent men at the luncheon of the Republican club today made insistent demands for a national health board.
 We don't seem to care anything about our health." said Dr. Wiley. "We are the drug habit nation. We don't feel satis- fled unless we take something for every thing. We arc a country of drug fiends. drug slaves. The present indiscriminate sale of drugs threatens the public health fully as seriously as does impure food.
 we would all be better off in this coun- try if we had no alcohol. We can do with cut 1t and I'd like to see universal pro- hibition. Even the German Emperor agrees with me on that point. It is for tunate for him that his office is not an elective one. It would be the best thing for us if we would close up every brew cry and distillery in this country. Alco- hol is one of the drugs-only one-thats sapp.ng the life of our citizens.
 we are counting death every day through defiance of life rules. Death is lurking constantly at our side and yet we ignore the monster. Do you know how much money 1t takes to kill a man and then bury him after he is dead? A count less amount.
 There are 12o.0o0 physicians in this country-12o00o men living on princely sal aries because we ignore the possibility of our losing our health. Why should men die at all? But if we are to die, let us die all at once and not piecemeal. Let US retain our vital ability up to the last. We cannot afford to die ourselves before our time and we cannot afford to let be- tween 100 and 150 out of every 1000 of our babies die every year under five years of age"

GUEY WAS. SPECIAL
CHINESE POLICEMAN
Case Against Him Dismissed
and Commission Has
Been Revoked.

A policeman arrested by other police
men was what happened when Mock
Guey Chinamar. was taken to the
police station several weeks ago and
was charged with carrying concealed
weapons. The facts in the case deveI-
oped in county court when the case
was dismissed on the recommendation
of county attorney Brldgers.
Guey, according to ch4~- of police
Ben. Jenkins, was deputized as a spe-
cial officer when Leung Mon Toon, an
other Chinamans was found dead in the
alley back of the Star stables. Guey
was supposed to assist in the search
for tie murderer. Mar Lung Jung was
later arrested by city detectives and
bound over 10 the grand jury, which
indicted him. by justice McClintock. He
then gave bond and was released.
Guey. upon being deputlzed, armed
himself with a revolver. and as his
commission was not revoked, continued
TO carry the gun. The FL Paso police
force, however, no longer includes a
Chinaman.
