(Special) The prevalence of the "drug habit" in New York has been brought to pro minent notice li reason of a test case in n New York court, seeking to set aside the existing law with reference to the use of habit-forming drugs on the claim that the law is unconstitu tional. In questioning the legality of the act it was contended that it de prived persons of property without due process, the majority of convic tions being based upon police confisea tions of the drugs. The Justico before whom the cse was tried, threw consid erable light on the matter. He declared: "Within the last decade a situation has risen with respect to habit-form ing drugs which threatens to becomo a real menace to the pence of the corn unity and daily is sending many men and women to Tuin." The court referred to the fact that has been established in criminal prac- users and sellers. Further than this, the municipal authorities have found it necessary to purchase and maintain a large farm colony to which victims my be sent for treat ment. The New York courts have de clared that the attempt of the legis-, Ilatur of the state to eliminate and con-1 trol the use of drug for medicinal purposes is a proper exercise of po- , lice power. Tho trial judge comment ed: "In such a cosmopolitan, population as now characterizes many of our I greater cities, new and complex prob lems present themselves from time to time in connection with, the mainten ance of order. The use of habit-form'-ing drugs is one of these problems." . ' I Shakespeare Garden in Danger. ' The Shakespeare Garden in Central Park has taken a strong hold on tho affections and sentiment of New York ers, and its threatened destruction has raised a protest that the city au thorities are likely to heed. Every flower named in the works of tl)a illustrious Shakespeare is to be found in the little nondescript garden that clings to the' rocks of the hillsile, to ward which tens of thousands of city dwellers wend their way in order that their hungry gaze may rest on the bea tiful profusion of horticulture. Seve ral local organizations, including tho Women's Natioonal Farm and Garden Association, the Shakespearian Society and the Boy Scouts, have made an or ganized attempt to save the garden. ll is a small affair but remarkable be cause of its interesting situation and further because of the care with which its flowery expanse has been planned and kept. Tho delight of tho peoplo who visit the garden in uncounted numbers goes straight to one's heart. Woman Sent to Congress. Helcnn. Mont., Nov. 13. (Special)' That Miss Jeanctte Rankin, of Mon tana, will becomo tho first woman to sit as a member of either house of congress seems nssnred as late re iuins from the outlying districts are) received. With a tenth of tho stato unreported early todav Miss Rankin's lend was close to 3,000 and this she if likely to retain. Miss Rankin is ft Republican and ran on a dry plat- ' form Her strength was in the rural districts and as the precincts to bo heard from are in the far eastern and fnr western parts of the state it ifi l.flir-vcd Harry B. Mitchell, Democrat, who is third in tho race, will bo un able to overcome her lead, though Miss Rankm's election is not con ceded. I f
