IN THE NAME OF CHRIST.
Ten Hcretics Jailed and Gre.
mated by Order Of =
Judge.

New YORK. Especial. IA special ia
the World from Pachuca Mex, says:
News comes from Texacapa, . small
town inhabited by Indians and mesti.
EOS (half -breeds), that ten persons,
instead ofthree as.prevtously reported,
were burned there as heretics BY order
Of the auxiliary town judge. He claims
he was acting according to the will Of
God, manifested to him In an extra
ordinary vision, accompanied by GER
tain indications Of divine wrath
against heretics and people leading
immoral lives.
As soon as the news reached NOLAN
60, the principal town in the district,
the municipal president and minor
officials, with an escort Of over GO
men, armed with rifles, went to Texa-
capa. where they found everybody in
the public sQnare executing grotesque
dances In honor of the Virgin of
Gaudaloupe around the ruins Of the
Jail, q small building solidly con-
structed close to the parish church.
In this Jail previous to Saturday had
been confined Nicolas Hernandez,
Martin Santiago, Jose Manuel, Casper
Hernandez, Juan Tomas, Juan Tomas
second, Maria Conception and her
infant child. They had been rudely
hustled from their homes at dead OF
night on the extraordinary charge pre-
ferred by the auxiliary town Judge
that their lives were an evil in the
sight of God, and that they were en-
emies Of the faith and heretics whom
God had ordered through his holy
saint to be consumed by fire.
Twenty-one arrests were made, al
though the fanatical mob threatened
death to the authorities. The prison
ers, securely bound around the arms
and chained together, were marched
to Mollango, where judicial investi-
cation will take place. All believe the
auxiliary judge commissioned by the
Almighty and the saints to destroy
evil doors. They point to the pile Of
bones .on which they profess TO see
miraculously traced outline forms Of
the saints, who, ON advising the judge
to burn the heretits, left their images.
The community is nothing but an
open-air madhouse.

On the principal lines of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & ST. Paul railway passenger
trains are electric lighted, steam heated and
protected by block signals. With these
modern appliances. railway travelling at high
speeds has reached degree of safety here
tofore unknown and not attainable on roads
where they are not in use. Electric lights
and steam heat make 1t possible to dispense
with the oil lamp and car stove. Block sig.
nails have reduced the chances for collisions
to the minimum by maintaining an abso-
Lutte interval of space between trains.
