ials on the Mans Strange

Where is Schlatter, the healer?"

"Where is Schlatter, the healer?"
This question assumes somewhat of
the chestnut flavor to- day, but it is still
being asked by thousands. The keenest
local interest is felt in the movements of
this strange individual, but they are so
very erratic and mysterious that no sane
man csn keep track OF them.

hours at house near the old stage sta
tion at CuyT.angue. Twelve and half
miles north otsSanta Fs,s yesterday after
noon. Thence he seems to have cut across
the hills over the Tesuque trail to this
city, arriving here, II is said, about II
O'Clock last night. He was alone and
walking, leading his now famous white
horse. He is said to have passed down San
Francisco street at l:30 O'Clock. Atthis
hour Deputy Sheriff Tucker and Hymie
Lowitzki say they met him near the narrow
gauge crossing on Rosario street, shock
hands with and conversed with him. He
was invited TO stay over night IN Santa
Fe, and said be would like to do SO but
could not. He then proceeded westward
down San Francisco street. David
Hersch, clerk in Gusdorf d Dolan's
store; young Goldorf, Ed. Tafoya,
Fred. Msestas and A. Rael state that
they hired buggy and followed the
healer, overtaking him nine miles out on
the road leading to San Ildefonso. They
travelled with him until ten minutes past
O'Clock this morning, so they say. Ac-
cording to their statement, Schlstter
said he could not loiter because "the Faith
or" commanded him to 60 on. They asked
him whittier he was journeying and he
said he did not know. They invited him
to return to Santa Fe but he declined, say
ing, they allege, that il would be more
comfortable to return and remain over
night at some house, but 1.-THE Father"
told him to move on. He added that he
would walk and lead his horse till day
light when he would then mount land
make him get" The party offered Schlat-
ter flask from which he took q drink
of whisky and then, at their suggestion,
he put the flask in his pocket.
If this story is true, Schlatter is prob
ably asleep at some house near San Ilde-
fonso to-day. Whence he travels there is
no guessing, but many are inclined to be-
lieve that he will next be heard of down
the river in the Pena Blanca neighbor-
hood.

"Shamokin, Pa, Dec. 15.-Nathan w.
Baker, proprietor of the Baker house at
Lewistown, asserts that he was wholly
cured of acute inflammatory rheumatism,
from which he was a sufferer for score
of years, through the mysterious power
of Francis Schlatter, the "divine healer
of Colorado.
s'None Of the doctors were able to
help Mr.. Baker and it was only by the aid
of crutches that he was able to move
about when not confined to his home
entirely. Miss Fasnaugh, Lewisburg
girl, who was visiting Denver friends,
had 6chlatter bless handkerchief and
then sent 1t to Mr.. Baker. He placed it
over the affected parts of his body and
says he was able to walk without pain
or trouble in "a hours. Now he claims
to be better than he was been for years
and has just made public the manner in
which he was cured"

The London Telegraph thus discourses
on the Decay of Bohemianism. 1t Is very
truthful and insGructie:
There Is no more significant proof OF
the change that has come over the artistic
and literary world ttan the fact that every
attempt to revive the old bohemianism in
in failure. The demand for the good
old. sanded floor and clay pipe OF the past
is limited to an undistinguished few. and
the supply OF these obsolete luxuTies,
when granted, meets with no general az
probation. In like manner eccentricitics
OF conduct. which were once regarded as
virtues rather than vices, are no longer
tolerated. and the so-called bohemian OF
these days isexpectcd to pay and does
pay his club su Inscription and his just
debts. He is not SO picturesque as he was
but he is much more punctual.
The cause Of the change is not far to
seek. Nowadays the standard of life has
risen in all the social spheres. and while
the British workinginan demands his
higher wages and more ample leisure. the
artist world clothes itself in purple and
fine linen and requires to be surrounded
with all the comfort and extravaganza of
palatial clubs. Only there is no eight-hour
limit for the contemporary inhabitants
of this nondescript region, nor does he
enroll himself into unions to extort terms
from hard-hearted proprietors and man.
ayers. Although his dinners and his sup
pers are much more costly than they used
to be in the old days, he does not work
less hard nor is his labor less worthy Of
ungrudgIng praise.
Meanwhile both actors and journalists
have transformed the whole mise-en scene
OF their lives; there is no more sackcloth
nor locusts and wild honey for them !;
they are clad in the broadcloth of the or
binary world and have scared into social
sphere which their predecessors neither
knew nor cared about. Possibly this may
be the effect of that general equalization
OF conditions which accompanies the
whole course of our modern Democracy.
We all dress alike live alike, acknowledge
the same social rules, adopt the same lux
urious or extravagant tastes. The point
to notice, however. is that the worth
of the individual has not grown less. des-
pite this democratic tendency. On the
contrary his value both to himself and
others has enormously increased.
