Drug Habit Increases.
New York, Nov. 13. (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.

That Miss Jeanctte Rankin, of Mon
