woman seemed partially paralyzed With
fear and pain, and said she had jumped

had made threats against his wife,
and she has been constantly In
fear of him. This morning he WAS
brought to his home by some companions

had he entered the house than he
began threatening his wife, and she With

orderly one, the members being divided
iii two factions. Both sections became
intensely excited and the noise could be
heard q block away. Members Jumped
around and on the seats and called each
other lars and hypocritcs. Great excite-
ment prevailed aud the police had TO be
sent for to prevent a fight During the ex-
citement a member tainted and fell to the
floor, creating almost panic. He was car
ried out and laid on the grass in front OF
the church. Several reporters We're $ -

covered howl went up from the angry
crowd and the scribes were ignomlnlous-

then climbed on woodsheds
In the rear of the church, but were again
discovered, and the windows were closed
to keep the racket from being heard with
out. The street In front OF she church
was crowded with people, while the doors
were guarded by the police. Mrs. Brad
bury's followers being unable to cope
with the friends of the pastor, left the
church In disgust and proceeded to the
residence OF member where an ipdigna-
iion meeting was held. The meetings at
both the church and the house were pro-
longed until late houT.a saaS
