scHRADER is BUSY.
He Has Been Treating Large Numbers
of People All Day Long and
Some Seem to Feel Better
After the Treatment.

Schrader, the "Divine Faith Heal
err" as he calls himself, has been busy
all day long treating people. Rich and
poor, young and old. have come to
him and received his laying on Of
hands. He has changed his place OF
abode, at least some friends in the
city have changed it for him, and he is
now stationed in room No. l at the
City Hotel, where he wants to see
anyone who wishes treatment.
This morning he went out to the
northwest part of the city to treat
several people in that vicinity. lie
was entertained by Mr.. and Mrs. T.. N
Wales, and laid his hands on a number
of people afflicted with minor All
ments. He also treated Mrs. Rachel
Westerman, who has been unable to
walk for over a year on account Oh
rheumatism.
On hearing that he had been to Mrs.
Westerman's a reporter for the LED
GER Immediately went to her home
and was ushered into her presence.
She said that she felt quite a good deal
better since Schrader had laid his
hands on her and that she was able to
move her arms, which were quite stiff
this morning, as soon as Schrader had
finished his treatment. Thus far no
wonderful cures have been effected
and the public will apxiously await
the result of his faith healing.
His method of treatment is peculiar.
On entering his room n is asked to
sit down in a chair and he requests
everyone to say nothing of their af1ic-
ton to him. He then places one hand
on the chest and one on the back and
bowling his head, appears to be pray
ing. Then he rubs the hands and
forehead of the afflicted one, all the
time having his head and his eyes
closed. He next asks for ones hand
kerchief and folding it between his
hands, raises his face toward heaven,
and with his eyes still closed, seems to
pray. This handkerchief, he says,
will allay all pain and suffering, If APP
piled to the afflicted part, if one has
faith.
That is the great question does any
one have enough faith to be entirely
cured. He does not claim to be able
to cure everyone Immediately after
treatment, but does claim to be able
to cure all if they have enough faith
The people of our city are giving him
a fair trial and whether or not his
work has any effect remains to be
seen.

EXPOSING HEALER" sCHRADER.
Rev. G.. s. Robbins, of Macon City,
Camping on the I%tinerant's Trail.

MACON, Mo-, Feb. 3.-The Rev. GA.
Robbins, Methodist preacher of this
place, who claims to have exposed
"Faith Healer" August Schrader at
Moberly yesterday, is the center of
almost as much attention now as
Schrader himself. Mr.. Robbins is a
remarkably bright young man, hardly
26, and yet has achieved great distinc-
ton throughout the State as an able
and successful pulpit orator. In a
recent revival he closed in this city at
his church, the new converts were
much greater in number than has been
secured by travelling evangelists for
years at any of the churches. He is
regarded as the orator of the county
and is in high favor with the Macca-
bees throughout the State as a lee
turer. He is as firm in his conviction
that this man Schrader is a fraud as of
the authenticity of Holy Writ, and
intends to camp on his trail until he
~confesses his imposture.
Since Mr.. Robbins dramatic meet
ing with Schrader, in which he de-
nounced him as an impostor, the
Methodist church wont hold the
crowds that gather to listen to him.
Harry L. Davenport, the "boy evan
gelist," has been at MoberIy this week,
but Schrader's plucky little antagonist
is drawing the crowds. Schrader yes
terday announced his intention OF
coming here, and as he has left Mob
erly it was supposed he had, but he
has not shown up. He will hardly
come here, as his photograph and his
tory have been printed in the Macon
Times, and it would keep him so busy
explaining that he wouldn't have
time to perform any ~tscures.D
