ROWLING MAcpoNALDITES.
A New Sect Which Does Amazin G
Things While wOrshipinE.

There is a new religious sect in Cam
bridge, Mass, the members of which
style themselves MacDonaldites. They
settled here about year ago, but it is
only recently that they have had set
tied place of worship. They are pros
porous financially and purchased few
months ago a little chapel formerly
used by the Free Will Baptists. They
outgrew this and last month invested
$4,000 in chapel on Hampshire street,
formerly known as the First Reformed
Episcopal church. One peculiar fea-
ture of the worship of the Macdonald
ties is the immense amount of noise
they always make in conducting serv-
ices. The people in the vicinity of the
chapel say the representatives of the
new sect are so enthusiastic in their
demonstrations during the meetings
that they make life burden TO anyone
within hearing.
The regular meetings are held on
Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday even
ings and the congregation as whole at
each meeting works itself up to state
of frenzy similar to the wild excite
ment of an old-fashioned Methodist
camp meeting, but far more intense
There are perhaps $50 men, women and
children in the congregation, entirely
from the working class of people
There is apparently no pastor or Other
spiritual leader. After a few words Of
prayer or exhortation the audience
sings from a hymn book. Soon the
books are laid aside and by a rapid
process of evolution the musical notes
become bowls, shrieks and groans, as
if from souls in mortal distress. The
movements of the bodies are unnatural
and physically distressing. The face
| is distorted, the lower limbs drawn up
and the head thrown back. Men and
women rise from their seats and sway
their bodies 10 and fro as they emit
ear-piercing yells. Gradually the mus
cles stiffen and the eyes become
set until the enthusiast seems to be in
trance. After this condition has con,
tinued for an hour or so the worship
ers suddenly seem to recover their nor
NAL selves and the meeting comes t.
an abrupt close.
The members Of this strange sect arr

to be talkative about their religion

DECOY FOR HUNTERS.
1t Presents the Perfect Outward Sem

AS deceptive and dangerous as the
proverbial wolf in sleeps clothing is
a patent cow just invented by a west
ern genius. The device presents the
perfect outward semblance of a most
peaceable and amiable COW, but the
fore legs and the hind legs are in fact
the legs of two men. They are armed
with guns, and have splendid sup
ply of ammunition.
The device has flexible outer shell
of canvas or other suitable material,
decorated externally to represent the
animal in imitation of which the de-
coy is constructed, and said shell is
adapted to be supported or held in its
distended position through the medium
of a collapsible metal framework, which

In preparing her case Miss White has
accumulated an immense amount OF
documentary evidence. She claims to
be the lneal descendant of the great
and popular king of Sweden, Gustavus
Adolphus. 1t is matter of history that
the present king of Sweden, Oscar H.,
cannot claim this distinction.
The various papers and documents
which Miss White has collected and
which she says will be put in evidence
at the proper time, establish her rela-
tionship, it is claimed, to the older rulers
of the country. The last of this Amer
lean woman's ancestors to occupy the
throne of Sweden was King Gustayus
~, who ruled from 1892 to 1909.
Unless Miss White DISCUSSES herself
as Joan of Arc and successfully downs
the whole of Sweden before her sword
there is not much likelihood of her ever
getting near the throne. AS a matter
of fact, a woman cannot reign over
Sweden's people, the latter having so de-
cided more than century ago. After
the disastrous efforts of the reigns of
Queen Christina and Erica Eleanora in
the eighteenth century, Sweden came
to the conclusion that only male per-
sons shall rule the country and its peo-
pie, and only a revolution could change
this rule of eligibility to the throne.

allows the covering and framework OF
the decoy to be folded into a small
space for transportation. In the sides
of the frames, at suitable points, are
windows or openings, protected by out
ward swinging flap blinds, and through
these windows the sportsman in the
rear may discharge his fowling piece
when the game has been successfully
stalked. For the firing of the hunter
in the front of the decoy there is pro-
yided downward swinging portion,
which includes the head and neck of the
animal, SO that by simply releasing a
small catch from the inside of the
framework, this swing front portion
drops by gravity and thus leaves the
sportsman free.
