ture of THIS association. / have pre-

great to say, most decided falling off
in receipts from both officers (Which

must be noted. The amount realized
from these two sources in 1911 was
$5627, and for 1912, $4930
1T is a source of pleasure that / am
able to say that at no period in the
history of the association has such a
large percentage of camps paid their

II cannot think that those holding
commissions do not realize the burden

responses for the past year have not
been so ready nor so numerous as
formerly. Holding all the honors the
association can bestow, they should
manifest their affection and patriotism

INSANITY CAUSED
BY MEXICAN PLANT
Smoking the Leaves One of
Latest Forms of Soldiers
Dissipation

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
San Antono.-The revolution in Mexico
has brought with 1t not only the rev.
ages of war. but also the degradation
of the social condition of soldiers and
prisoners. one of the latest forms of
dissipation in the ranks of federals and
rebels alike is the habit of smoking mar
huana a deadly native plant of Mexico.
According to reports many of the Mex
lean prisoners In the Meem prison in the
City of Mexico are losing their minds
as a result of smoking this weed.
The dry leaves of marihuana. alone
or mixed with tobacco. make the smoker
wilder than a wild beast 1t is said that
after the first three or four draughts of
smoke the smoker feels slight head
ache. then he sees everything moving
and finally loses all control OF his men,
tai faculties.
The next stage OF the intoxication is
fun of terrors. Troops of eIocious wild
animals march before the vision of the
smoker. Lions, tigers, panthers and
other wild beasts occupy his vision.
These wild animals are then attacked by
hosts of devils and monsters Of unheard-
of shapes The smoker becomes brave
and possessed of superhuman strength.
1t Is at this stage of the debauch that
murders are committed by smokers Of
| the marihuana weed.
few Americans have experimental
with the weed A few years ago a we'll
! known citizen of San Antonio purchased
a large coffee plantation in southern
Mexico. He was induced to try smoking
| marihuana; he became addicted to the
| habit, which rendered him insane and
| finally caused his death.
| In another instance the superintendent
! OF mine in Mexico. who was an Amer

| of the men in his employ. The Mexican
mixed marihuana with the Americans

Not long ago a Mexican of the lower

| had smoked a marihuana cigarette, be-
| came insane. attacked and killed a po-
! lceman and badly wounded three others.
| Marihuana Is one OF the most danger

| grows wild in many localities In tho
| southern part of that country. Its won

| been known TO the natives and many are
! the wild orgies it has produced. So
dangerous is this weed that in the City
of Mexico and other Mexican cities the
government keeps special inspectors con-
| stantly employed to see that 1t is not
sold In the markets.
There is in the state of Mchoacan tho
