Terriblp Scene in Londoifs
"Dope" Sensation.
Hopeless, Helpress Victinis
of the Habit.
(London Dail Express.)
It was in the dressing-roorn of a cer-
tain Well-known London theatre that I
met my first dope fiend; perhaps the
most notorious of them all. He was
a tiny ecre.p of a mart, with quick,
burniog eyes peering from -a Dallied
mask -like face. His manner was ef-
feminate to a degree: He lisped like
a woman, had a nervous, jerky motion
of the hands, and reeked •overpower-
ingly of perfume. All the time be
seemed ta be worked on wires, start-
ing at the elightest sound and glancing
round convulsively.
ele Wu giving a little party at his
flat that evening, he said. 'Would I
care to go-? Thero. would be some
"quite itteresting" people there.
I went. The house was in one of
those quiet, select streets near Plea -
dilly, and the flat was all that a flat
fa such a, neighborhood ,promised to
be; luxuriottsly, even artistically, fur-
nished throughout, My host was wait-
ing me in the entrance hall downstairs.
apparently it was the custom that all
guest -were elosely scrutinized before
gaining admittance. I saw him glance
tet rue rather hUrriedly and furtively
as he ()Dona the door. Xiut, recog.
ilizing me, his suspicious, instantly
melted away into a welcoming efalle,
wae led upstairs to the party.
It is difficult to say which was the,
more sinieter-that, large, silent up-
stairs room, with its, sensual -colored
carpets, curtains, and hangings, low -
shaded purple lights, aud uncauny at-
ot lassitude, or the pallid -
Awed, deep -eyed ocettpante.
There were three others beside My
host In the room -two women and a
man. The latter was a tall, emaciat-
ed, not untandeome mass about thirtY.
In appearance there was no suggestion
of Lis depravity; he woe well groom-
od, fashionably, almost immaculately
dreseed. Only one notiten those dull,
hoavy eyes, a languorous manner, and
a silent, almost cat -like, gait. The
hand he offered me. was limp and
clammy to the touch.
He was, I learnt •afterevaills, one of
the most corrupt of the habitues, The
flat Wee the famous meeting place of
all the most fashionable dopers in
London. The moods of exhiliaration
and depression he expereinced were
terrible by contrast, Vrequeatly he
had threatened to blow out his brains
or throw himself into the river when
recovering from a heavy done of -deep.
Always he was accompanied by a con-
fidential male servant, .a sort of keepe
er-valet,
The two women •seemed, though In-
finably, part and parcel of that lan-
guorous, heavy -scented atmosphere.
The elder, a tall, striking, dignified
woman of about fifty, exquisitely
gowned, with a mass of pure waits
hair rising from a noble forehead,
seemed strangely' out of place in these
infamous surroundings. She looked
like the elaatelaine of some fashionable
mansion of Mayfair,- whieh was in-
deed hor true walk in life. With her
drawling, listlesa accent, she contrast -
0(1 vividly with the younger woman,
Who had just come in from the Adr
joiding room,
The sweet face of the latter, with
dimpled, . richly colored cheeke and
deep bine oyes, innedent as thosie of a
child, set in the frame of a mast' or

me afterwards.
• A woman friend lead advised her to
take phemeeetin for a raging tooth-

of her. By' easy stages -too easy
stages -she had gone on -from one
form of •drug to another, first as an
experiment; then, as the soothing effect
grew in fascination, an unquenchable
craving developed. She lost all self-
control. Even that evening she had
a premonition was to prove correct.
Within a few weeks of that- fateful
evening she was found dead in her
bed after an over -dose of' cocaine.
A smilax tragedy was to befall an-
other member of that night's party
who case in later. He was a first
sturdy young soldier, a man -whom
one would hardly suspect of such
habits, but that is often the case with
'dopers. One night, alone in •' his
chamber e he put a bullet through his
brain. Tete facts were cargully
hushed up. A verdict of "Temporary
insanity" was returned by the cor-
oner's jury. It was undeestood that
"he had been suffering from severe
fits of depression through being un-
able to return to the front.".
Meanwhile, remainder of the party
•came in, single, by couples, or In
eThall parties. Always their greet-
ing was the same; an apathetic sen-
tnce or two and a dull, disinterested
giem ot recognization. Immediately
they' would sink into the nearest easy
chair el -settee, and there remain. The
Unusual number of deeply cushioned
chairs and -collates was a striking
feature of the furnishing of that room.
The visitors were a curious, cosmo-
politan, crowd -a much bejewelled
Egyptian prince, a handsome young
actor, welI-knoein matinee idol, two
girls from the chorus of popular
musical comedy, an elderly Peer, •a
a few women of the smart set, arrog-
ant and more blase than usual -and

He seemed to entertain a perfect
horror of being lett In a. room alone.

(By Captain R. F. W. Rees.)
There was once a man who coveted
a wonderful crystal bowl that he saw
en a shop window; but the price o
it was far beyond his means.
However, so great was his desire for
the bowl that he etraightway pet to
eaving his money, Ile atinted elm
sae of •all but the necesearles, of life
He hall! starved himself. He worked
his tingerst almost to the bone. He
epared himself neither in mind nor la
body. He caw other people having
merry trme, but bee clid not cage. Every
penny that he could (serape tog -ether
went te the secrq heard. 'Men caller
him. a fool and a miser, but he did no
care. He wanted that beautiful crysta
bowl.
And in tbe ruinees of time it came
to pass that he had sufficient money
saved. Frenzied wit/a joy, he rucshed
to the shop and bought the prooloua
bowl. Then, so great was his elation,
he went out and got drunk.
And Wane he was drunk he dropped
the bowl on the pevereent, and it
was shattered into a housaud piecee.
• That le tete parable of the 13olehe-
vik. Tiles Britieh Empire has fought
hard for over four years, giving all,
eacrifIcing' all for the 1 ',I • idet
of liberty. The esrice was a high. One,
but at last it has been tiaid, and, we
hold liberty securely in our arms.
Bet what will happen should we
get drunken on the heady.brew of Rol-
shevism? There will be no liberty
then -only thee& All our eacrifiee
will have been in vain. The legions
of the glorious dead will have massed
to no pupae& We shall be laughing
at our own dead.
Reaction is a dangeeoue thing. We
netest be careful that we do not let it
overpower us. We are on the- thres-
hold of the worldte greatest era, and
it is for us to make it or to mar it.
