The above confession was secured from Harry Heath, a Chicago dope; fiend, who was arrested by the police after he had been caught selling two "shots" of morphine for a nickel. The raid was made on the Savoy hotel, 302 State street, by Detectives Ryan and Russell, who found Heath In his room preparing for a big trade In the evening. Friend "Penchesj" Arrenl Follow. Harry Heath, in whose apartments the "coke" is sold, was locked up at the Harrison street station. He is a "coke fiend" himself, ami has been arrested several times for selling the drug. Joseph Walters, Paul Gabel and Thomas Burke, patrons of the den, which is on the top floor of the hotel were also arested. Walters is 29 years old and lives at 2311 Wabash avenue. He told the police that he was a member of the Seventh regiment, I. N. G. As "coke fiends" are apt to Imagine themselves milionaires or anything else the police are inclined to doubt his ta tement. It was Walters who gave the information that led to Heath's arrest. Ryan and Russell, who knew him as a cocaine victim, met him in State street ami from the peculiar gleam in his eye suspected that he was under the influence of the drug. Good Trade nt Bargain Price. When Questioned by the detectives Walters declared that he had quit the habit, but lie talked so volubly that he betrayed himself. Being acquainted with the lying proclivities of a "coke" victim, the officers knew he was not telling the truth and after a cross fire examination he admitted having had "two shots" a few minutes before. "I just came from Harry Heath's," lie said, "and he gave me two shots for a nick. Anybody who hasn't got a needle can go there and get a 'shot.' He's doing a big business since he cut the price to two shots for a nick.' Lots of girls come here in the afternoon, and Harry is kept pretty busy shooting the 'coke.' Harry's Is the only place where they give you two shots for a 'nick.' That's cheaper than stealing it." The officers went to the Savoy and found Heath In his room preparing the crystal Hakes with water, in anticipation of a big night's trade. Several ounce bottles were found concealed in a mattress, and searcli of the room revealed a dozen hypodermic syringes, which are used in administering "shot." The user of the drugs calls the syringe a "needle." Several ounces of morphine also were found in the room. Heath told the police he got his supply of cocaine and morphine from a druggist at Hammond.

ASPHALT IS THE LATEST

Molding Blocks Must Give Way to Ashpalt, Say Property Owners. South Hohman Street Men Say They Are Tired of Bumping the Bumps. Exit moulding blocks. Enter asphalt paving Hohmun street simply can't make up its mind what cloth'es it is going to wear. It is ashamed of its present garb. It has been pointed to with shame as the most uncouth street in the city and ft appears now that it is too late to get a fall suit, it will have to wait until next spring before the improvement is made. There was a little meeting in the office of John W. Dyer in the Commercial bank this morning which was attended by four or five of the South Side property owners. They definitely decided that, so far as they were concerned, tho city could never put in moulding block and their choice was asphalt. Want Aphnlt Coating. They do not propose to put down a regular r. sphalt street. That would cost too much but what they want to see done is to have a foundation of crushed stone and then a coating of an inch or more of asphalt. They are convinced that this is the best kind of a pavement and they are unalterably opposed to brick. Those who attended the meeting were John W. Dyer, Thomas Hammond, Fred Mott and one or two others. Postmaster W. H. Gostlin is snid to be opposed to brick and favors asphalt, although he never undertood to force his views on the rest or the property owners and always said that he would favor what the majority wanted. It was suggested to Mr. Dyer, who seems to be the h ader in his opposition to brick, that the adoption of another kind of paving would delay the improvement for the year. Tired of IlninpinK ihe Hump. His reply was that it would be preferable to have the improvement de layed than to have a pavement foisted on the property owners that they did not want. This is not believed to b the opinion of the other property owners, however, who are sick and tired of riding over the bumps in their carriages and having the dust from unsprlnkled streets continually blown into their homes. DR. PANNENBORG IS ILL Attending Physician Reports Recovery of His Patient. Dr. J. A. Graham, who is attending Dr. John C.

Dr. Graham finally made the proper diagnosis and prescribed the remedy and his patient has been getting along nicely ever since. Dr. Pannenborg is usually seen so frequently on the street that he has been greatly issed of late. His friends will all he pleased to learn that his speedy recovery is assured and that he will be able to return to his practice. LOST CHILD CAUSES AN EVENING SENSATION.

Since its discovery one year ago. poslam, the new skin remedy, has, in its extraordinary accomplishments, exceeded the most sanguine expectations of the eminent specialist who gave it to the world. It has cured thousands of cases of eczema and eradicated facial and other disfigurement of years' standing. The terrible itching attending eczema is stopped with the first application, giving proof of Its curative properties at the very outset. In less serious skin affections, such as pimples, rash, herpes, blackheads, acne, barber's itch, etc., results show after an avernight application only a small quantity being required to effect a cure. A muddy or sallow complexion is noticeably improved by a single application. Those who use poslam for these minor skin troubles can now avail themselves of the ypxrial 50-cent package, recently adopted to meet such needs. Both the 50-cent package and regular J2 Jar may now be obtained in Hammond at J. W. Weis', 98 State street and other leading drug stores. i Samples for experimental purposes : L"30 fT of charTe bKy T'? direct to the cmerfrencv Laboratories. 32 we8t Twenty-fifth street.
