MANY DEATHS CAUSED
BY STRONG DRUGS

New York, Oct. 9.-Increase of
deaths here from sleep-producing
drugs, use of which. It is said, has
been acquired by many persons since
the advent of prohibition, has led
Health Commissioner Copeland TO
order an investigation of sales Of
such drugs. Additional restrictions
may be placed on their sale. he said.
The investigation was ordered be-
cause of statement by Chief Medi-
cal Examiner Norris regarding the
increase in deaths attributed to this
cause. He said that alcoholic addicts,
finding themselves nervous and sleep
less in many instances where they
have been unable to purchase liquor
for their customary "nightcap" before
retiring and the "eye opener on aris-
ing, had resorted to other artificial
and dangerous ways of wooing sleep.
The desired relief he said, was OBJ
tanned through the use Of the nerve
quieting effects of certain drugs.
DR. Copeland, in instructions to the
bureau of foods and drugs to begin
an investigation Immediately, refer
red to most of the drugs about which
complaint has been made officially, as
"treacherous somnifacients, fifteer
grains of one of which, he said, were
sufficient to cause death. He admit
ted that fatalities from the use OF
these drugs were altogether too fre-
quentp
Mr.. Morris declared that deaths
from sleep producing drugs occurred
in hospitals and in what formerly
were sanitoriums for treatment OF
alcoholism. Deaths from such causes
also had been recorded as suicides, he
said Sale of such drugs, he added
should be governed by the same strici
regulations as those governing the
sale of poisons.

A WANT
LONG FELT
OcaIa House to Contain Strictly Mod
ern and WelI-Fitted Up
Apartments

The Apaha Hotel Company, COM
posed of Messrs. r. T. Adams. Whit
Palmer and the Hall estate, is enter
ing upon move which will be Of
great value to Ocala. and we hope viii
prove remunerative to them.
The Ocala House, in which Mrs. D..
&c. Edwards of Gainesville. has a life
interest, was bequeathed by her some
months ago to charming little Miss
Dorothy Adams of this city, and her
father, Mr.. R. T. Adams. as her guar
dian, has leased the hotel for ninety
nine years to the Apaha Company.
This company will begin at once to
make over the second floor of the
south wing of the hotel into furnished
apartments consisting of bed room,
living room, dining room, kitchen and
bath. The gardens in the rear of
the hotel will be brought back to their
former beauty. it is announced. The
shed over the sidewalk on Broadway
will be rebuilt and painted. Other ex-
ternal and internal improvements of
the building will be made. There will
be about S5 rooms in the hotel in adj
dition to the apartments.
| It is also announced that orange
trees viii be planted on the lot in the
rear of the Harrington Hall for the
purpose of making the lot more at
tractive. A number of orange trees
may also be included in the garden
| in the rear of the Ocala House.
In case the experiment is success
iful, the Apaha Company may make
+ all or nearly the hotel into apart
ments. No doubt that this is an inn
Eprovement greatly needed in Ocala,
and as Mr. Adams and Mr. Palmer
are both first-class business men we
may confidently expect them to make
it a success.
