FEAR BIG OUT BREAK OF CRIME
o.. FROM LACK OF DOPE
Numbering the drug users in Chi
cagO as more than 10000 Dr. H. l.
Davis, sup't of County Psychopathie,
hospital, yesterday gave out a state
ment asking immediate steps be tax
en- to curb the expected wave Of
crime and suicides by dope fiends
when their supply of drug is exhaust
ed. Davis says the situation is too
large for the county, city, state OF
government to cope with alone. His
plan will mean the establishment of
central receiving station and insti-
tutions where the applicants may be
sent to be cured.
In the basement of the city hall is
a little room which has been fitted up
by dope fiends who are taking the
cure and who are helping the police
to curb the traffic in this city. The
club is very exclusive. To become a
member one must have been arrest
ed for using dope and paroled. At
present the club has 10 members con-
sisting of ''hOp-heads, - "snOw-birds' .
and "dreamers,'
Yesterday these men, the "feelers"
for the dope squad, reported that they
believed a volcano" would burst in
the city within 80 days. At the end
of this time, they say, drug users win
have exhausted their supply, bought
before the enforcement Of the Harri-
sO.l urug law.

AND NOLz2S
February Hannah More.

Hannah More, one OF the most sue
cessful of all English women. writer's.
was born on February 2, 1745. When
she was three and half years old-a
delicate, but delightful little girl-her
mother thought she was old enough to
learn her letters. But when Hannah
began the lessons her mother found
to her surprise that the child already
knew her letters and could read a
little. She had listened to her older
sisters as they went through their
lessons and had quietly learned with
them when she was supposed to be
playing with her dolls. She had a
nurse who had lived with the family
of the poet Dryden, and as a child
Hannah would be good as long as her
nurse would repeat the poetry OF
Dryden or tell stories of the great man.
The one romance IN Hannah More's
life occurred when she was twenty
one. She then met and became en-
gagged to a wealthy bachelor, who
seemed entirely devoted to her. How
ever, as the day OF the wedding ap-
preached he became unaccountably
reticent about the proceedings and
begged off. Once again the wedding
date was set, and again the bride
groom asked to have a little more
time. Hannah did not bear him any
resentment for his :;""EEe behavior
and would gladly have Continued her
engagement, but her friends and fam
lily wisely insisted that she break her
agreement The bachelor seems to
have been glad Of his freedom, for he
offered her TIL equivalent Of $1,000
year compens,t.vn, which Hannah re-
fused to accept However, he did
force her to accept a large amount
of money-just how much is not
known-and remembered her gener-
ously in his will. Hannah had had
enough of love and vowed that she
would never again listen to a pro
posal of marriage. And she was as
good as her promise.
Hannah More's first reputation as a
writer was won in the field of novels
and plays. Garrick. the great actor,
for whom she wrote several very sue
cessful plays, said that she was the
nine muses. all combined in one. In
her later life she retired from society
and devoted herself to writing re-
liglous and moral novels and tracts
which were even more popular Than
her former line of writing had been.
One of the Cheap Repository Tracts
which she wIote sold to the extent Of
More is also remembered because of
the prominent part she took in the
organization of Sunday schools in
England =.

HOROSCOPE.

According to astrology this Is a doubt

exercise only a mild sway. Neptune and
Mars are distinctly malefic.
1t is not a fortunate time for entering
into new partnerships or for choosing
business associates.
Again warning is given that It will
be well to guard against fraud and de-
ception and to watch out for schemers.
This year will be marked by many losses
through enterprises that are untrust-
worthy. Promise of gain through foreign
investments will lure many.
Hospitals. sanitariums and other in
stitutions for the care OF those who are

extra work because OF contagious and
infectious diseases.
While this configuration prevails II is
said that danger is to be watched for in
anesthetics. fetid odors and poisonous
liquids. The stars foreshadow epidemIcs
that win be serious. especially on the
eastern coast of the United States.

he probably never even hoped for such
| bright prospects as awaited him, for he
and his family made a record to be proud
OF in the new world.
The year after his arrival at New Am
sterdam, he went northward to what was
then known as Beverwyck. now Albany.
He was about thirty-eight at the time.
| and no doubt was impatient to be mar
ried, so he went back to Amsterdam and
turned again TO Albany. After about
thirty years Of happy and prosperous
married life, Jacob died, leaving his
widow. and a son, Dirk, or Dirick.
In 1886 this Dirk went on an expedition
against the Indians, and had an eXciting
experience. His party was set upon by
the French and Indians, and robbed. He
was carried to Quebec, and there sub
jected to the most severe treatment.
Finally he, with others, escaped, and
after five days travelling, he reached Al
bany. The next year he married Rachel
Jochemse.
Dirk was an innkeeper by trade, but
managed to handle some brilliant land
deals. In 1I20 he obtained from Peter van
woggelum q grant Of 40 acres OF land
In fee at a yearly rent of 1--WE schepels
Of wheat and four fat fowls" This grant
was called the Poesten Bowery,'' or farm.
Later IL was hIlO"H dS
Ferry and in 17S9 1t became the city of
Troy, N. Y.
There is probably much Of interest to
the family still to be ferreted out Of the
old records In Amsterdam. but no one
with sufficient patience and knowledge OF
the Dutch language seems to have risen
to undertake the interesting task. There
was a Jan Van Der Heyden, born at Ger
KUN, Netherlands, about 1851, who died
at Amsterdam In 1T12, whose name as an
architectural painter Is known to stu
dents Of art. He was beginning his
career about the time that the more rest
less spirit Of Jacob Tyssen Van Der
Heyden was bent on finding a home
across the waters. No doubt there Is
some family connection between these
two, but It has apparently not been es-
tablIshed.
Some member of the family must also
have gone to England, for in the British
armories we find the coat-of-arms of the
Wander Heydens well established. 1t is
blazoned: Sable, three mullets pierced
argent, on q canton or, rose Of the
field.

something OF the origin of the name.

known In Britain in the fifth century.
Several variations Of the name are
common; for example; Poppe in Germany.
also Pop and Popp. Then there is Poape
found in colonial records. and the varia-
tions Popeson. Popham and Popeham.
The name Popeham Is a combination OF
Pope and ham, the home OF Pope or the
Pope family. ham being a corruption of
the ~4erman helm, from which we get our

Great activity in naval affairs Is
prophesied and extraordinary expendi-
lures are indicated.
The President of the United States has
an omen of i'll, which is read as probable
opposition from financiers, who may
cause embarrassment to the administra-
ton. He is warned against complications
that threaten entanglements with foreign

Persons whose birthdate It Is should
pay strict attention to business. They
may succeed in avoiding serious losses.
Illness in the family circle is probable.
Children born on this day have the
augury OF trouble in their love affairs.
They should be bright, alert and indus

| thing is wrong and that If they had had
| their way 1t would not have come to
pass. 1t occurred to me that that some
| thing that women needed to avert these
| calamities was a voice in the govern
ment-it was votes for women If you
will. So though there was nursing
enough to be done there, I came back to
this country determined to throw my
energies into the fight here
Il was not a suffragist-I never
| though about II. But that frightfuI
picture Of war made me think. I feel
| that If the fight could be won here in this
CO Untry 1t would be such a glorious ex-
ample that it would be needed by Eu-
rope as we'll"
So it was that Miss Drexel. slight
young-absurdly young, one would
think, to have formulated such a serious
rmination-explained her mission
in coming to Washington. She is here
to stuly the suffrage situ0 ton and she
was at the Congressional Union yester-
! day morning to see just what was 60
ing on in the camp here
How did you happen to be on the
continent when the war broke out?'
Miss Drexel was asked.
1T was this way. 1 was visiting in
France. After the war had broken out
We got up to Paris and from there
went with Mrs. James Parish, jr., by
motor to Deauville where she had a
villa, and there l stayed. The men were
| called of and before long Mrs Parish's
men servants had left and the poor little
femme re chambre' had the added duty
of serving dinner. But no one minded
things like that
Then the fighting began in earnest and
soon the wounded began to pour into
! Deauville from the great battle of the
Marine. The Royal Hotel and the Casino
were turned into military hospitals and
every one helped to do the nursing
Did you find that you were handi-
capped because you had not had regular
training as a nurse?"
oh, no. there was plenty for US all to
do. All one needed was common sense
At the hospital they would get word that
the wounded-the 'blesses' were coming
and then We would all get to work-un-
dressing the poor soldiers, for they came
from the battlefield and the trenches Just
as they were injured. There was end
less work to do-they needed so much
attention before they were ready for the
surgeons and We found that We could
all do 1t.
THE trains would come by night or by
day-these trains of the 'blesses'. and as
Mrs. Parish had one of the comparatively
few motors in Deauville that was not
taken by the government. it was kept
busy when the hospital trains came tax
ing the soldiers from the station to the
improvised hospitals
And now what are your plans?" the
representative from The woman's Herald
asked Miss Drexel. Now that you are
to be ranked as one of the recruits in the
cause, what are you going to do?"
First, shall study the situation" said
Miss Drexel, simply. "and then / shall
do what there is to be done. 1 am con-
fident that the best remedy for war lies
in the winning Of the vote and I am
going to give my time TO that cause"
