Arthur Schrader, the divine healer
whose fame has spread broadcast over
the land because of the miraculous
cures he is said to have effected, is
among the halt and blind of Salt Lake.
He has come to heal them and will be-
gin his ninistrations to the afflicted
this morning.
Schrader arrived in Salt Lake yester-
day from the west and went quietly to
modest boarding house at 164 South
Second East street, which he viii make
his abode and where he will treat all
patients who come during his stay
here.
The healer is not averse to talking
for publication, and speaks with per-
feet frankness of his life and his min
isterings to the people.

A YEARLY FAST.

Once a year Schrader retires from
the sight of man, going generally up TO
the mountains, where he fasts forty
days and nights, subsisting solely upon
the dew of the grass and spending his
entire time in prayer.
Schrader's work is a mission of love.
He has no price and makes no charge
for his services but blesses all corners.

1t was indeed an awakening. History
repeats itself. The American people

themselves to a policy which is as
deadly as sin?
VIII they continue a policy which
each year drags the people further into
debt and bondage? Will they follow a
cause which each year dirlinishes the
reward for labor and more firmly en-
chains us to our foreign creditors? The
financial legislation of congress during
the past thirty years is the darkest

he affects as close a resemblance as
possible to the conventional pictures
of Christ, albeit he makes no claims
to being the Son of God. He is a man
5 feet inches in height, weighs $50
pounds, has a very sWarthy complexion
large, blue-gIey eyes, wears a, full
beard, which never knew the touch of
the tonsorial artist, although it Isl by
no means unkempt or untidy, while
full head of hair, midnight black and
parted in the middle, falls down to his
shoulders. His age was 25 the 18th
day of July last. His dress, as much
as any other characteristic, gives him
the appearance of the Son of Man
whose emissary he claims to be. Out
wardly, it is a long black robe of soft
wooden material, which hangs to his
feet, just revealing a pair Of shoes
which, though not of the coarsest, are
certainly Of the plainest material. The
robe has large flowing sleeves which
disclose those of an under garment,
apparently a ministerial coat, made of
coarse black material The mans at
tire is in no wise unneat and gives him,
with his calm features and his hair
and beard, an appearance strangely
like the pictures that have been handed
down from all time, as depicting the
image of the one who was crucified.
Across his breast, readings from his
right shoulder to his girdle on the left,
he wears a silken scarf on which Isl
embroidered in silk the words, obi
vine Healer Schrader.'' This he said
was to avoid answering questions as to
his identity. Depending from his robe
he wears number of crucifXes.

HIS WORK IN FRISCO.
Schrader came to Salt Lake from San
Francisco where he spent some time
healing the sick According to the ac-
counts of the papers of that city he
performed many miraculous cures. He
was so besieged at his hotel that
large storeroom was procured where
he exercised his magic power and from
morning TO night, day after day placed
his hands upon hundreds Of afflicted
and blessed them. Describing the effect
of his work the Examiner said faa- Of
the many who came all said they felt
better when they went away; and
though those who went on crutches
did not throw them away, they did not
use them in departing. His stay in
Salt Lake is indefinite.

voted whole pages to descriptions of
the healer and his cures while there.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-10-10
HOW HE WORKS.

The healer's method of effecting cures
is verv simple. He explained that he
places his hands upon the patient,
resting the right hand on the brow and
the left at the back of the neck He
then prays for them. He explained
further that he works through faith,
and said that those who come without
faith in the Lord Jesus had better stay
AWAY and save their time.

TALKS FREELY.

In conversation the healer gives con-
slant evidence of the truthfulness of
the statement which he was careful
to make, that he had never been to
school day in his life, statement
which his very limited vocabulary
would seem to render unnecessary, al
though it cannot be said he does not
display an average amount Of native
intelligence.
He has been noted as a healer
since the age of 10, at which time, he
said, he felt inspired to go out among
the sick and afflicted.
His success was such that he left
his home in his native village in Wis
consin ard travelled about the country
performing cures upon all who came to
him: and preaching repentance and
everlasting life through the gospel. Ac-
cording to his own account he has
often been beset by those who would
persecute him, but by an inward adj
nlonition which he doubted not was
from God, he had never feared, but
had gone on administering to the SUI
ferin@.

DU MAURIER'S CHARMS.
THEY ARE DISCUSSED BY A MAN
WHO KNEW HIM WE'LL
The Great Author Never Was the
Same After His Great Success OF
..Trilby"-He Himself Unlimited
That He Had Been "soured BY
Success

LONDON, Oct. 9-The Daily News
this morning in an article signed by
Henry w. Lucy, formerly editor of the
Daily News gives gossipy details of
Du Maurier's charms. Mr.. Lucy says
that among his intimate friends Du
Maurier was called "Kicky'' The orr
gin of the sobriquet is unknown.
At the weekly dinner of the staff of
Punch. 'Kicky' was always in the
fullest flood of high spirits. His talk
irradiated flashes of the subtlest HUI
NOR, but lately, with his failing
health, he was apt to be influenced by
low spirits. His literary success came
too late. He was really never the
same man since the great success of
'Trilby."
Mr.. Lucy adds: "T remember one
night in the early summer of this year
his talking at a dinner party about his
next novel. When Lord Wolsely asked
what it would be, Du Maurier with a
humorous smile, said: I think l will
call it ''Soured by Success" I am
afraid that truth underlay this flash
of humor. Perhaps the secret was his
failing health His frame was not too
robust. and he succumbed to the eff
forts of an unselfish strenuous life"

TRILBY IN ARDMORE
The Story of That Wonderful Imaginary
edy Company Last Night.

Trilby has been to Ardmore not in
person but in a most creditable
Characterization by the Hoyt CON-
edy company last night.
The story of this wonderful imagin-
ary parsonage has been read by the
world 1t has probably called forth
more comment, favorable and un-
favorable than any book of the last
century. The drama based on that
story has likewise come in for its
share of notoriety.
It's presentation last night as far
as the ARDMoREITE reporter could
Judge was very creditable.
Arthur Denvir as Svengali was
certainly good, i'll fact it could not,
in our humble judgement have been
better. Miss Pauline Fletcher as the
wonderful Trilby was superb. Beauti-
full at all times, last night she was
simply captivating in her radiance
of smiles and earnestness of pur-
pose and she played her part to
perfection. Harry Sheldon display
ed to a remarkable degree his ability
as an actor, assuming the role of
three important characters in each
of which he acquitted himself with
distinguished honors. Taffy, by
Eugene Powers; Sunday, by James
Sillince, and Little Billie, by Warren
Catterlin were good, could not have
been better, whild Misses Hazel Har-
rison, as Zou Zou, and Trixie Adams
as Madam Wizard were above un-
favorable criticism.
Each succeeding performance inn
proves the popularity of this splendid
company and the ARDMoREITE re-
grets it has not been given larger
audiences.
Tonight they will produce "The
Inside Track the play in which
Jennie Holman and J. Harvey Cook
Cook made such a hit in this city
two years ago. Tomorrow night
they will close their engagement
with 1.-The Texas Steer.

Reattx,s ORGANS and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, of Washing
ton, New Jersey, the great Organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building
more Organs and Pianos than ever.
In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a pen
niless plow hoy, and by his indemit-
able will he has worked his way up
so as to sell SO far, nearly 100, 900 of
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts of the world.
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 200,-
600 more of his make; that means a
business of $40, ,OOO, 900, if we average
them at S1OO each. 1t is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel f.
