NEW YORK, Feb. 81 U.S.).--
Profits are so great and its SNUG
Cling so easy that the illicit traffic
in $opium and other. habit t-forming

of other nations, the League, of Ma.

DOPE IMP Or 7 s
GAIN HEAVILY
IN YEAR

NEW YORK, Feb. 21 U.S).-Nar-
cotic education week began to-
day and will be carried out ma
tionally until February %. There
win be programs in thousands Of or
ganizationsa and clubs. the issuance
of public statements by governors of
many States. mayors Of cities and
other officials and prominent
persons.
Concerning this years observance.
Richmond P. Hobson, secretary
general of the World Conference on
Narcotic Education. said today:
"The observance this year Is par
ticularly interesting and important
because the legislatures of most OF
the States are in session and uni
form narcotic drug act is now pend
ing before their committees on
judiciary. 1t is important, too. be.
cause the revelations in the recent
Rothstein murder case in New York
CITY disclosed an international drug
ring with vast operations in America
and other lands.
''The chief of the narcotic division
Of the Treasury Department is
quoted as saying that the smuggling
operations Of this ring have in,
; creased 800 per cent in the United
states in the last year and that
now 9s per cent of all narcotic
drugs used by addicts are smuggled,
in spite of the efforts of the Gov
ernment officers.
Representative Fish, of New
York, in a statement before the
Judiciary Committee estimates that
the economic loss to America from
narcotic drug addiction exceeds
>S5, ,OO0, 900, 900, and that 80 per cent
of all criminals use narcotic drugs
to gain courage for their crimes"

THE SALUTE
Mrs. O'Leary's. Lamp
Found in Paris
Bar Room

PARIS, Feb. 81 Q.N.S).-A
lamp ranking in fame with those
of Aladdin and Diogones, has been
located in Paris. 1t is the old-style
farm lantern alleged to have been
upset by Mrs. o'Leary's we'll
known cow, the act that started
the Chicago fire.
Rejuvenated, it is now doing
service in side street bar room
often referred to by the natives
as the Rue Dauncu Thirst EN-
porium."
That the lamp is the real article
rests established beyond doubt
in the mind of the owner, the
saloon keeper.
1t was sold to him some years
ago by a Chicagoan who had
brought it to Paris straight from
the Windy City, having acquired
it some 20 years earlier at an
auction sale.
The well-proved fact that the
barkeeper. who is a Scotsman,
spent the equivalent of $S in re-
storing the lamp, speaks most
strongly for its authenticity.

WIFE VVANT is IT

Mrs. Mary Lula Wyman, 900
block H st. n. E., wife of William
H. wyman, local real estate and
insurance broker, has sued for abso-
lutte divorce on grounds Of unfaith.
fulness in Equity Court. She also
seeks more adequate allowances for
maintenance and custody of two
minor daughters.
An alleged correspondent, living
in the Mt. Vernon Apartments,
where Wyman is said to reside, is
named in the wife's bill, filed by
Attorneys J. L. Krupsaw and Bell,
Marshall, Rice and Carmody.
The wife charges that her
husband abandoned her May /,
1924. and she was later awarded a
limited divorce which granted her
the right to live in premises at 922
H st NJ E., jointly owned by the
couple. She now says the adjoin.
ing premises have been raided by
the police on several occasions and
her present abode is not a fit
environment in which to raise her
young daughters.
The couple were married January
Is, 1918, according to the bill.
Wyman's wife says he makes $500

JUDGE TO RULE ON RELIGIOUS
STATUS OF SPLRITUALISM

by Policeman L. c. Wise and Police
woman C. w. Alexander in Mrs.
Grants house on February 10,
opened with prayer and the sing.
ing of sacred hymns, according to
testimony given by Mrs, Grant in
Police Court yesterday. She denied
that she was medium.
Carroll said he was an associate
minister of the Spiritualist church
and had demonstrated an ability to
see spirits. to hear voices, and de-
scribe accurately the conditions at
tending a spirit"
Comedy was injected into the
trial when the story was told OF
how Policeman Wise lit a match
and broke up the seance. One of
the spirits communicated with was
that of Pat O'Connor."
Among the spectators in the court
room at the time was Patrick F.
O'Connor. professional bondsman,
and his friends had much fun at
his expense.
