THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. IS CHI WIS Its Increasing Consump tion Among Newsies. EFFORT TO CHECK VICES So I.'nully I'rocurrd it Ilo llroiiKlit About Appalling Conditions- Twrntr-flvo Crnta Worth I.iixl Several Hours Ordinarily VmmI as Snuff. Every one knows at a glance tho sharpened features and the alert ye of the newsboys who dart about the busy corners of the city, for tho typo Is unmistakable. There have recently appeared among them, an some observing persons have noticed, many faces of a very different ex pression, with the features sharp ened and eyes dulled and sunken natll their appearance Is ghastly. The change Is due to the alarmlug spread among these newsboys of the eocafne habit. The victims of tho drug are numbered by the hundreds among the newsboys alone. Scarcely a day passes without some case of cocaine poisoning ap pearing In the pollen courts of the large cities, says the New York Her ald. There have been many cases recently of mere boys being plckud op In the streets or In vacant lots completely overcome by tho drug. The parents of many of these boys have appealed to the various re formatorloB to tuke their children, every oth r means having failed. Tho records ut Uellovuo HoHpltul show that lant year there were thir teen cases of Insanity und nine cases of dullrlutu due to coculno poison ing, not to mention, of course, the minor tascs. The habit, especially among tho boys of the street, id In creasing alarmingly. It Is believed that, never before wnB the habit so general In the city, i Several deaths from cocaine poisoning have even occurred In the open streets. The npreid of the habit Is largely due fo Che ease with which the drug may be obtained. Then, again., the boy who hus gained the habit, ,ao many newsboys will tell you. finds little trouble In making con ettJt Having once enjoyed the sensation he U quick to tell the others about It and urge them to en Joy It. The coculne may be bought for a few cents In the form either of a powder or a liquid. It Is usually bought In twenty-five cent packages, although a smaller quantity, evoa ten cents worth Is readily obtainable. t A quarters' worth of the drug will last a boy for several hours, and even make It possible for him, with st&r.aRen genoroalty, to lend some to W friends. The drug is usually taken by these boys through the nos trils. The common practice Is to Inhale It by means of an ordinary uHI toothpick or a straw. A mere tnuff of It is sufficient. Th effect for the first few days, o far as outward appearances go, 1b not particularly noticeable. Soon, kovfover, the eye takes on a perman ently clouded appearance; the lines of the face, always pronounced with these little fellows become more defined, and the whole expression oro to be looser. As the drug tale hold the eyes seem to sink fleaper into the head and the feu tore are still further sharpened. T&ere Is accompanying almost a complete losa of applUte, and the Ttctlms quickly lose flesh. In many eases the weight will be reduced folly two-thirds within a few weeks. Attar a time the body becomes frightfully emaciated, until the vic tim seems little more than skin and bone. It has been reported to the police taat en enterprising New York aruggist ha gone so far as to send m of hie- clerks to peddle the drug on the treat. At another place packages of cocaine are tied up, ac cording to the boys, in anticipation at the rush hour which follows the Unie when the boys are paid off. Ail this Is readily explained by the fact that the profit on the drug la enormous. Many of the customers will buy .cocaine, a dollars' worth at a time, and the quantity ex changed for a dollar is said to cot but a few pennies at most. The frightful grip this habit soon gains pon It victims, the inevitable crav ing for more of the drug, also serves to build- up a steady as well as profit able trade. The New York, State Board of Pharmacy held meetings to discuss the spreading of the cocaine habit. Investigation haa satisfied them that the habit has grown to alarming proportions. Its victims have been found to have Increased in the crim inal pauper and hospital records of practically every olty in the State. At the meeting of the Board it was duclded to prohibit the sale of co caine to any one except on a pre scription. Will Be Complete In 1050.

The Grangers know that these seeds are worthless for anything else than to aid con gressional candidates to curry favor with their constituents. The latest action in regard to these graft seeds comes trom Tioga county, where thecountv Grangers declare that they will have nothing to do with the seeds sent to tue larmers Dy senators and congressmen. The farmers say mat tne seeas are worthless and that it is a crime for the covernment to pay out large sums of money annually in supply ing these useless seeds, wnicn win not grow, but the distribution of which increases the revenues of the railroads. With the farmers oppos ing the graft, the congressmen will he confronted with the alternative of abolishing the gralt or losing the votes of the grangers, it tne seeas would grow, the congressmen might be forgiven for using them for electioneering purposes, but those who receive them know they will not produce results, Ex. .

It must be difficult for Americans to net an adequate conception of tho A 111 Ir either as a man or a ruler, for there is no country with which Now World people come in direct or even diplomatic contact that offers any sort of analogy to Afghanistan anil Us clvllltntlon. There la civili zation In Afghanistan; there lire etono houses, splendid palaces, an extraordinary literature, which Itself Implies educational Institutions; well organized government, laws, courts, army, police; but thore Is not ono mlio of railroad, and thore aro few other roads suitable for wheeled vehicles. Afghanistan Is one of tho few countries from which Groat Urltaln had to retreat after gaining a foot hold on the soil. Before the middle of tha last century Afghans drove out the British garrisons and their defendants with groat slaughter. No serious attempt has been made to recover military control of the country, but what the British army fallod to do has boen accomplished So far as is necessary for Ilritluli interests by diplomacy and money. After much negotiation the late Amir, father of the present ruler, agreed that Afghanistan should ac cept the advice of the British Go vernment In India on all nuuHtlous relating to foreign affairs. This means in plain language that Afgha- .j . 1 AMIR OP AFGHANISTAN nlstun is dependent on Groat Bri tain. It cannot make war with or enter into troaty relations with any other Government and cannot maintain agents or representatives In foreign capitals. So far as Its domestics affairs are concerned, however, Afghanistan Is as Independent as the United States and the Amir Is its absolute ruler. He 1b in his own person the court of appeals for all kinds of cases and ho can abrogate the laws or proclaim new ones without let or hindrance from Great Britain. There were two considerations which Induced the late Amir to deprive his country of individuality In the list of nations: The payment to him by the Indian Government of 1600,000 annually and the guarantee by the British Government that Afghanistan should be protected against unprovoked aggression. Tha country covers an area about equal to that of the New England States plus New York. Its popula tion la estimated at nearly 5,000,000 The present Amir was born In 1872 and suceeded to tha throne In Oc tober. 1901. It Is rather striking that until the time tha Amir .visited India he was Ignorant of motor cars and rail ways and much else that pertains to the ordinary life of Western clvll zatlon ha has long been familiar with and personally expert at photogra phy. While he was yet a prince he took an excellont picture of his father and more recently ha has taken one of himself. The Amir supports a considerable harem. And has four regularly re cognized wives, the chief of whom, known as the Queen Wife, enjoys an ullowanco of $375,000 a year. The allowances of the other wives are $300,000 and $150,000 and$75,000. according to seniority. Caoutchouc in Cuba. In describing the cultivation of a hardy variety of rubber tree In Cuba, a writer in the National Magazine of Cuba says that is. advisable to plant the small trees about six metres apart. In this way, at the age ot 15 to 10 years the trees having re ached a height of say thirty feet, do not interfere with minor cultivations While the trees are reaching matu rity, the grower can raise beans, kidney beans, nuts or cassavas, ma langa, cotton and maize. . The pine apple will make a profitable Inter polated crop. The caoutchouo requires no cul tivation, the grass and the vegetation assisting the young plant, and when older the shade eliminates all useless grasses and herbs. The tree can be tapped at the fifth year, but more satisfactory results will be attained by waiting until the sixth year, and then, instead of abstracting two or three pounds of juice, It Is prudent to take no more than one to one and a half pounds, according to the development of the tree: an average of one and a half pounds would ba very reasonable. If methodically handled, the rub ber tree is extremely long lived, and from eighth to tenth year the tree will produce about six pounds annual ly, and still remain In condition to give service many years to coma. t ran mwfM Shoes Made by Tolstoi. "These shoes were made by Tolstoi, the TnlHt.nl, the t;reaesl literary geni us of the oko." The tthoeH, framed iu oak, hung over the mantel a coarse pair of cowlilf.es, with hob nuilH.
