DEVILS IN RUSSIA.
Torture the Result ST Horrible supersti-
ton.

(From the London Telegraph)
Superstition is very rife throughout
Russia and the east. In some part OF
Russia the people believe that devils can
enter into the organism Of human beings,
whose actions they thereafter guide and
there are sorcerers who profess to be able
to cast out the spirits. These men are
utterly without scruple and the suffer-
ings which they cause their victims to
undergo may easily be imagined. Very
few cases ever come before the law
courts The people look upon the wizard
as a powerful parsonage, who can work
them much evil, and therefore not lightly
to be provoked, Hence complaints are
rarely laid before the tribunals
A typical story of the sort however.

caucase. A Mahametan mollah, or priest,
named Ahmed Ramasanoff was charged
