ugly gashes were cut In his breast

were closed with stitches and the
injuries were not serious. but It was
about as narrow an escape from
death as could well be imagined.

rible details, better than words can express, or
convey meaning to those who lack understanding
of the subject in all of its distressing phases.
While it is a shame to admit that dope is
handled and used in this city every day, and the
criminals who purvey it walk the streets un-
known to the local or federal authorities, yet
such is the fact.
In spite of the secrecy with which transac-
lions in narcotics are carried on, the local police
officials have met with some success in remoy-
ing many of the dastardly criminals engaged in
the traffic, from the scene of their works of de-
struction.
The murderer, in comparison with the dealer
in dope, becomes respectable. The victim is not
tortured or made to suffer and pray for death,
he Is despatched quickly and his pain is of short
duration. If the dope dealers could be discovered
collected in a body and made to undergo the mis-
cry to which their victims are condemned it
would be poetic justice.
In a raid a few months since the police of this
city rounded up some nine dope merchants and
when this vile scum of humanity was brought
before the federal court the police produced evil
dence to convict eight of them, who are now
safely behind gray walls where they can no
longer prey upon the weakness of their victims.
In a more recent raid the police gathered in
some fifteen offenders who are now awaiting
trial before the same court and it is to be hoped
that the entire number is convicted and removed
beyond the power to continue the destruction of
human souls.
But no writer, however gifted, is able to depict
the story, the photographer does it far better. 1t
is not only the duty, but it should be the pleas
ure of the parents of this city to place before
the children of understandable age the warning
contained in Human Wreckage."
If 1t will be of any benefit to the fathers and
mothers of this city to know the fact, every edu-
cational, moral and administrative interest and
influence in the United States, recommends and
urges viewing this picture, for the good it
teaches and the evil it seeks to avoid.

New York, Jan. 16.--The woman spy gets compunction at just the wrong moment is the real reason why women do not make good spies" said Sir Basil Thompson, former head of the British secret service.
 He was speaking last night at the Brooklyn academy of music.
 ''She has obtained information from someone who should not have given it to her." he said. and then, when she should pass it along, she feels it would be unfair to her informant, and withholds it.
 There is difference between the patriotic spy. he said, and what he called the "hireling" spy and added that none Of the former was executed by his government during the war Eleven of the "hireling" type were executed. he said.
