SNOWBIRDS IN U. S. COURT TELL . . DOPE SECRETS (Continued From Page One.) cotic conspirators and peddlers sat ! n the Jury box and faced the court during this dramatic recital. Occasionally the scene shifted to comedy, spontaneous and lively, but other witnesses recalled the tragedy of the drug traffic by their pitiful stories. Blubber Haynes, known as “Bubbles,” who was one of the confessed users of the drugs and a former redlight hangeron in Terre Haute, turned his recital of drug using into comedy. “Bubbles” Haynes is a big, strapping big cheeked negro, who claimed that he “blew” into Terre Haute from a show and there got acquainted with morphine. " ’Bubbles,’ how did you ever get to use dope?” asked Judge Anderson. “Bubbles” rose very solemnly from his sent and said in a loud voice: ‘Mister Jedge. yu seed it was like dls. I’se used this stuff 'bout tin jvars. “Wall, sir, it was back In nineteen bundrld an tin dat I gots to lovin’ a gal. “Won night dat gal of mine sed to me as was done pullin’ at de pipe, she sed to me, ‘Babie, do you love ya baby V “And jl says to her, ‘Uh-huh, baby.’ AND SO SAMSON WENT TO RUIN. “Den she done sed to me, ‘Den mu baby will take a shot of dls with ya baby.’ “And I sed, uh-huh,” chooned Bubbles as he puckered up his lips and loudly said “Uh-huh” with a smack of his lips. “And der I wus, Mister Jedge,” confessed “Bubbles.” Even Judge Anderson was forced to laugh with everybody else in the courtloom. “Bubbles” said be has quit the use of drugs and is now living the right kind of life. “What is your occupation?” asked tile court. ”1 don resigned dat job,” said “Bubbles.” Continuing, he said: “I’s a classy singer and dancer, jedge, at won of dein little theaters and I was done told to be thar tonight, Jedge.” Judge Anderson leaned forward and said: “Are you a good dancer. Bubbles?” “Judge I kin dance any ole kind of a dance, for ya,” said ’’Bubbles'' with enthusiasm, but Judge Anderson did not seem to care for a demonstration. RELEASED AFTER BEING “ARRANGED.” Haynes said he had been in jail several weeks waiting for trial and was released after he was “arranged” and pleaded guilty. “Mr. District Attorney, I think that Bubbles has learned bis lesson and has been in jail long enough,” said Judge Anderson to District Attorney YanNuys, who agreed with the court. “You are sentenced to a day In Jail,” said Judge Anderson. “Go back to your business and behave yourself. “Lay off of that stuff.” “Bubbles” made a dramatic exit from the courtroom, bowing very low and mut- ! tering his thanks to “de court.” Then the scene shifted to tragedy and | Judge Anderson became very grave as Della Rogers, wife of Harry J. Rogers, a defendant in the ease, took the stand. Mrs. Rogers was dressed in black and she walked slowly to the witness stand to testify for the government. SHE SPENT *2O A DAY FOR DRUG. Slowly she told her story—she used morphine for.ten years, that her husband had uced the drug and that she spent as high as S2O a day for morphine and bought most of the dope from Lottie Clark. She claimed she no longer uees the drug. Stella Jackson, another confessed user of the drug, was called as a witness. She wes dressed in a black hat and a blue sailor dress. She had used the drug for four years and bought it from Harry Rogers, she testified. Then May Fiulayson, dressed In a large picture hat, which shielded her sunken eyes and cheeks from the gaze of the curious, was called upon. She testified she used morphine for two years, but had stopped the habit only two weeks ago. ** She said she bought the morphine from Clark once and generally from Rogers, and usually got It In $2 lots about three times a day. “Whero did you get the money?” asked the court. She hung her head. District Attorney VanNuys said: “She

ras a part of the redlight life down InTerre Haute.” Harry Welch, who used- to be a prize fighter and an oil salesman, also a defendant, who confessed, said he got his morphine from a Terre Haute druggist. “Why isn’t the druggist here?” demanded Judge Anderson. The district attorney stated that an investigation is now under way. “He ought to be here,” said the court. Maurice Chase, a defendant, said he went to St. Louis, obtained money from Clark and brought morphine back with him to Terre Haute. “DR. CHASE, HOURS 12 TO 12.” Chase admitted he had a back room in the former underworld saloon of i “Buster” - Clark’s and that he had a sign which read: “Dr. Chase. Hours 12 to 12.” He admitted morphine was sold there and had seen Harry Rogers turn money from morphine sales over to “Buster” Clark. Maurice Chase was commonly known as ’Cotton” Chase in Terre Haute. Frank Dailey, known as “Bugs” Dailey, admitted selling dope for Chase when Chase was out of his shop and for this service he obtained a few’ “shots” of morphine for his own use. Harry J. Rogers, a defendant, admitted Clark gave him money to go to St. Louis and obtain dope and that the dope was kept in a safe at Clark’s saloon, only Clark and his wife having the keys. YOUNG MAN TELLS OF DRUG’S CLUTCH. One of the most pitiful Tecltals was told by John H. Castle, 26, who admitted using morphine “shots” for eight years. “I began using a medicine -which was made from morphine when they told me that I had a disease,” confessed Castle, who was indicted as a peddler of dope. “I used morphine for eight years.” “Why did you use it?” asked the court. Castle put his hands together In a hopeless attitude and said: “I couldn’t get around unless I had a shot. I had to have it then. “I would get down and I couldn’t get up unless I had it. “I had to have It to even get about.” That was probably the most pitiful confession of what morphine can do to wreck the life of a young man. Inspector 11. W. Gwin, who aided in unearthing this gigantic narcotic traffic, said that St. Louis, Terre Haute and Toledo, 0.. were the three great dope centers in this country. MILLIONAIRES CAUGHT | IN DOPE NET. He said a man named "Big Henry” was the ring leader of the trade at St. Louis and that Chase and Dailey had aided the government In breaking up the Sr. Louis gang, resulting in several millionaires being sent to prison from that city. The inspector said an ounce of morphine cost the Terre Haute gang about I sll and that an ounce netted from SSOO ■ to S6OO In sales. He Said he knew of an ounce of the j "snow” (morphine) selling at SI,OOO an ounce to a user of the dope. He branded “Buster” Clartf- and his wife as the chief leaders In the traffic along with F’rank E. Meharry, a brother-in-law of Clark, as another principal. The Inspector had several thousand dollars' worth of "snow” In a box which he Introduced as evidence, obtained In raids In Terre Haute. EASY WORK ENORMOI 8 PROFITS. He said the profits from the morphine trade were enormous and that It was "easy money,” because it did not require much work. Mr. VanNuys said “Buster” Clark has been a “political power” In Terre Haute for years and actually controlled the | tenderloin district for a long period. “If Mr. Clark would tell hi* atory ol I being protected by official# It would throw much light on this traffic, ’’ said the district attorney. “There is no doubt that part of the official life of Vigo county and Terre Haute knew about this traffic.” “Buster” Clark said as he held up U! hands, “I swear to God that Just what has been said about protection Is not ; true They robbed me in Terre Hants." District Attorney VanNuys rose to his feet and said to Clark: “Do you mean i to tell this court that the police of | Terre Haute never protected you In this traffic as well as the whisky traffic | lor at least three years?” Clark said that was not true. I ”1 don't care to ask you any ques- ! tlons,” said Mr. VanNuys. Clark then said if his wife had done

OVER THREE SCORE YEARS OLD BUT IS FEELING FINE NOW Indianapolis man suffered from rheumatism, kidney trouble, constipation and loss of sleep. Dreco gave him prompt relief and he now claims it to be the best medl. cine in the world. Mr. George W. Matthews, who lives at 900 West Maryland street, has lived In Indianapolis, Ind., all bis life. When ho was a little boy, during the Civil War, he sold papers on the streets. He worked for the Big 4 R. It. (where he Is still employed) as a brnkeman In ISBS, befo. air brakes were Invented. “For some time I've suffered from rheumatism of the Joints and muscles I could not bend over except with great pain and my Joints would snnp and pop with auy quick movement," said Mr. Matthews. “My kidneys troubled me a great deal and I frequently had to get up during tiie night; my back ached almost constantly. “My bowels were so badly constipated that I had to take some kind of medicine all the time; my nerves were oh edge so that I hardly knew what a night of sound, refreshing sleep was like. “One bottle of Dreco has bronght about a change In me. The rheumatic pains are gone; I never have a headache, can stoop and bend over like I was a boy again, my sleep Is sqund, and I rise of mornings feeling full of vim and vigor. Dreco did tot me what other medicines failed to do, and I gladly •praise It.” The old-faßhtoned remedies, made from roots and herbs, are the best for any one to take. Dreco is made from twelve different roots, herbs, barks and leaves. These act on the stomach, bowels and kidneys, and purify the blood. Dreco knocks rheumatism out shortly; relieves catarrh of the head and stomach; makes you sleep soundly and creates a good appetite. Asa bloorl purifyer nothing can equal Dreco. It puts a stop to bolls, eczema and other blood affections. All good druggists now sell Dreco, and It Is especially Introduced In Indianapolis by Clark & Cade’s Claypool Hotel drug store.—Advertisement. ‘

anything wrong he was to blame for her actions. This dramatic recital ended with some of the admitted dope-user* looking wistfully at a large box In the hands of Inspector Gwin which contained many boxes of morphine. With this exposure of Clark and his wost end gangsters, Terre Haute now has removed from its city one of the most corrupt political and social characters In that city, government officials contend. Clark has been a powerful political boss In the Terre Haute underworld for many years and his saloon was the scene of many orgies and political deals.
