OBITUARY..
MRS. ANNIE j. ROBERTS

MRS. ANNIE j. ROBERTS
The many friends and acquaintance of
Mrs. Annie ]. Roberts, wife of Alfred
Roberts, formerly of Portland, are gr1eved
to learn of her death which occurred On
the 18th inst. at Los Angeles, Cal.
Three years ago, Mrs. Roberts was seri-
ously i'll with the grippe from which she
never fully recovered, and as a conse-
quence was attacked last June with a
severe lung affection which eliminated
ID her death. Her husband and children
have the deepest sympathy of their Port
land friends, who fully appreciate their
lrreparable loss, and keenly realize how
painful it must have been to them, fan
away from home and kindred, to watch
the precious life of wife and mother slow
ly fade away.
Mrs. Roberts was most devoted wife
and mother, and was beloved by all who
knew her The most of her life was spent
IN caring for her homo and children, an6
IN trying to make all about her happy, ne
matter at what cost of personal incon
venience or self-sacrifice. She died as she
had lived peaceful and happy. Hel
spirit passed away as silently as the
waters that go out with the ebbing tide
but unlike the ebbing tide which, after
kissing the other shore, comes back in al
Its strength and beauty, her life. as we
believe, goes on and on forever.
Ii there are any green pastures, ant
till waters, and sweet resting places be
yond, we are certain that pure spirit
like hers will know and enjoy all the
solace and comfort of their peaceful amen
tiles,

A REMARKABLE EXHIBITION.
A Fair Sized Audience, But
Plenty Of Sick and Crippled to
be Healed.

Derr Fritz and staff of modern healers
captured the city yesterday afternoon
They had fair sized, intelligent and en-
thusiastic audience, and they certainly
gave the most wonderful and interesting
exhibition ever witnessed in this city.
After brief and very interesting talk,
the healing was commenced and almost
miracles were performed.
Among the cases treated was an old
gentleman known to almost every body in
Portland. His was a case of paralytic
rheumatism. The old gentleman was very
badly crippled, but in less than .minute
after the operator had made few passes
with his hand over his body and limbs, the
pain had ceased, his contracted limbs
took on new life, and with a cry of joy
the old gentleman jumped to the middle
of the platform, threw his cane away and
went about stamping, walking and
jumping like young man.
A lady cured of deafness. This lady had
been deaf for seven years. In less than
five minutes she was made to hear the
ulCh Va q WaCOll3 dlu CtOu q WlllcpCI IucbaJ
feet away.
1t is not necessary to mention every
case treated, but it is sufficient to say
that all were relieved and many declared
themselves entirely cured.
This exhibition of healing by the laying
on of hands was decided success and
everybody whether sick or we'll should see
it.
The cures excelled anything ever before
attempted in this city. It was all through
filled with serious and pathetic scenes in
some instances outrivalling even that of
"a drama.
The amusing, though pathetic, part of
the scenes is the looks of surprise and
wonder which are pictured upon the faces
of those people when after years of helpless
ness, deafness or decrepltude, find them
selves able to walk or to hear; their voices
tremble with emotion and sometimes
their eyes fill with tears as they kindly
thank this great healer.
Those who heard this lecture and saw
these cures are enthusiastic in their
praises of the wonderful good accom-
plished.
THESE LECTURES AND HEALING
CLINICS WILL CONTINUE WE'D
NESDAY, THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY AFTERNOONS THIS
WEEK AT O'CLOCK.
Derr Fritz and staff have offices at the
CHADWICK house, where all those who are
able and willing to pay for treatment

FREEPoRT FOR DEsPEAUx.
Delegates Instructed for Brunswick Man
For Sheriff.

ESPECIAL to THE PREssI
Freeport, May 24.-The Republican
caucus to chose delegates to the county
convention was held this evening. The
night was rainy and the turn out small.
A total of "A votes was thrown and the
delegates pledged to Despeaux for sheriff
and G. G. Wiggin for county commits
sioner had from So to SO votes. The dele.
gates elected were W. c. Fogg, Herman
E. Brewer, Fred S. Soule, f. W. Mitchell,
Willis M. Soule and W. L. Orne.
CAUCUS AT NEW GLOUCESTER.
The Republican caucus at New Glouces-
ter yesterday created much interest, the
contest hingeing on the county treasurer
ship. Two sets of delegates we've in the
field, one being for J. NJ Thompson for
treasurer, and the other J. W. True. The
Thompson delegates won by a vote of 81
to g.; they are as follows: Charles N.
Fogg, Melville G. Clark and Frank Fl.
Nevens. The question of county sheriff
did not enter largely into the contest, a
motion to instruct for Despeaux being
voted down. While the delegates 60 unin-
structed, there is quite strong Despeauz
sentiment among the citizens which may
have some weight with the delegates.
HOW NORTH YARMOUTH WENT.
1t was lively, caucus that the Republi.
cans of North Yarmouth put up, Monday
evening. 1t was supposed that Candidate
buchanan was sure Of the delegation, but
so many complications figured in the
caucus that as compromise the two dele
gates to the county convention were I'M
instructed regarding the sheriff contest.
They were, however, ordered to vote for
George e. Baston of North Yarmouth for
county commissioner.
