keepsie and she had him sent bac
home.

tool as much as he could get.

ster lurched in from the street. SO
drunk was he from cocaine he could
scarcely walk. He was taken to the

of the Children's Society. He admitted
he was a cocaine ''f1end" and added:
Lots of the kids about the navy
yard are fiends. They have to nave it.
1 got my first from Ed Buddy. He
lives at 62 Nassau street. Say, can't
you get me some coke? 1 am all shot
to pieces"
Following Miss Burke's complaint,
Lieutenant Colonel Lajeune, In COM
mand of the marine corps at he navy
yard, told the police his men were
being ruined by cocaine bought from

DEADLY DYNAMITE DARTS
FOR AIRMEN IN WARFARE.

PARIS, Feb. IA new and terrible
weapon has been invented by the war
departments dynamite TART for use
by airmen.
1t is a hand projectile about six
inches long. the size and shape OF a
leadpencil, but made of steel. The head
is solid and very heavy and extends
about two inches up the shaft. Above
this the shaft is deeply grooved.
In action, when flying over a body of
infantry or cavalry. the airman has
only to drop these missiles In handfuls.
Owing to the heavy steel head the dart
always falls point first. while the
grooved shaft serves as a rudder. like
the feather in an arrow.
