In Addition Several Others We're
Wounded, Some of Them
Fatally.
The Trouble Started in the Ac-
ton of the Pana Mine
Authorities,
Who Sought to Restrain Some of
the COlored Miners From
Leaving.

PANA, Ills, April lin &ot which
broke out at 1920 a. m. on one of the
main streets in front of the telegraph
Office, between white and black miners,
in which deputy sheriffs took part, five
men and one woman were killed. Eight
persons were wounded, several so seri-
ously that they will die. The killed are:
Xavier L. Roog, Frenchman, union
miner.
Frank Coburn, white, son Of ex-Sheriff

Three unknown negro miners and one
negro woman.
The Wounded.

Frank Handsworth, delivery boy, shot

Henry Steppin, negro miner, shot

How the Trouble Started.
The trouble resulting in the riot be-
gan Sunday night when 100 deputy sher-
ifs were called out in the Flathem and
Penwell mining district to protect sew
eral families of negroes, who were en-
deavoring to load household effects, pre-
paratory to leaving for Iowa, and were
being prevented by negro guards armed
with rifles furnished by the Pana Coal
company, who claimed that the goods
the negroes were moving were company
property. The deputies guarded the
negroes while they loaded their goods
in wagons, conveyed to the railroad cars
and packed them for shipment. The
negroes, their wives and children, were
then marched to Union Miners hall
where they were fed and cared for
by wni.e union miners and given
protection by guard of fifty
deputy sherltfs, 1t being feared that
negroes who did not wish them to leave
Pana would interfere and attempt for
chilly to prevent their departure. Dur
ing the night while deputies were guard
ing the negroes in the Penwell district
they were fired upon by unknown per-
sons supposed to have been negroes and
private guards at the Penwell mine,
and fully 200 shots were exchanged.
The firing greatly terrorized the resi-
dents of that section of the city, who
appealed to Chief Deputy Cheney for
protection. Deputy Cheney thereupon
sent special detail of deputies armed
with Springfield rifles, who patrolled all
the streets and succeeded in restoring
quiet before daybreak. Several negroes
were arrested charged with melting
riot, and the fatal rioting began while

BISHOP MORELAND ON
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
DELIVERS A LECTURE IN ST.
JOHNS GUILD HALL.
Occasion Is the Quarterly Social of
the Pensioners of the
Church.

Rt Rev William H. Moreland, Bishop
of Sacramento. delivered an interesting
lecture on Christian Science at the
quarterly lecture of the parshioners of
st. Johns church in the Guild Hall, Fif-
teenth street and Julian avenue last
night
Rev. DIR. Spalding, rector of st. Johns,
presided and introduced the lecturer with
a few remarks.
Bishop Moreland prefaced his lecture
with the statement that the acknow-
ledged sincerity of Christian Scientists is
no reason why they should be encouraged
or followed, declaring that the Turk Is
sincere when Sitting the throat of the
Armenian, the atheist sincere in denying
God and the Chinaman sincere In
worshiping his joss He dwelt at length
upon the good and true elements which
enter into their belief and showed how
they were originally derived from the old
Christian faith. He discoursed upon the
varied forms of mental healing which
have been practiced in all ages and at
tributed them to a form of suggestive
therapeutics which science recognizes
and the regular school of medicine prac-
tices. He emphasized the evils which fol-
low in the train of Christian Science,
naming as such insanity, denial Of God,
rejection of Christ and of the Bible as
God s word. effieminacy of character and
cruelty to the suffering. He stated that
the real question at stake is persstently
obscured by the followers of this new
cult It is not whether some people are
now living who might have died but for
Christian Science. 1t is whether there
are people now in their graves who might
be alive to-day had it not been for this
deusion. The point is not that it is
wrong to admit mental healing to the
bedside of patient. but whether it is
right to refuse all other treatment and
to let patient die rather than admit a
physician. The last is Christian Science,
falsely so called and it is madness and
folly.
The Bishop quoted a Prayer for a
Dyspeptic" taken from text book on
mind cure issued by the president of the
New York School of Primitive and Prac-
tical Christian Science" Dr. Hazard,
who states that his school is free from
eccentricty and fanaticsm, to show the
absurdity of the teachings of Christian
Scientists
