THE ZIONIST LEADER HAS AN
 HALLUCIN1TI
Declares Chicago Physicians Are Plan- ming to Ixidnap Him-He Says Their Object is to Beat Him Until He is Really 1nsane-Repeats His Pretcn- siOns to be Elijah.

Chicago, June 16.--John Alexander Dowie announced at his meeting in the Zion Tabernacle to-day that certain physicians of this city had formed a plot to kidnap him, lock him in a de- tention hospital and beat him on the head and back till he should lose all his reasoning powers and become really in- sane.
 He said that the kidnapping might take place tonight, and after his ser vice he called special private meeting of the male members of Zion to take ing him. He also made threats against the physicians that he would do to them as he thought they were trying to do to him, unless they shall let him alone and stop calling him a paranoiac.
 With all this DoWie repeated cOntin- ually his pretensions to be Elijah rein carnated, making way for the end of the world, and he incidentally laid claim to immortality until such time as his work was accomplished.

At 10:15 o'clock Judge Newburger ascended the bench, having been informed of the failure to agree. Ten minutes later the jury filed in. The prisoner was brought over from the Tombs. The judge asked the foreman if it was true that it was useless to hope for an agreement. and the fore man answered.: That is right"
 For second Dr. Kennedy seemed un- able to comprehend. Then the tears came to his eyes and his face showed the effort he was making to control himself and crushed his disappointment. Then the smile that had marked his face through most of the trial came back and seemed to grow to bright ness as he caught the eye of MT. Moore, his attorney.

 Dr. Hyde made a shcrt prayer and then preached from the text, Luke ix, 23, 50. "He that is not with Me is against Me. He that is not against you is for you" He said: "The first of these laws was in force largely in col lege life. The influence in general was to make a gentleman out of even the swelled head man, and by junior year most men who were not against you were for you. It was close com munity. Tn the outer world into which they were going the contrasted law was in force. If a man was not with you he was against you. In the col lege the tendency is good. In the world it is the other wav.'
 pr. Hyde gave the following pre- cepts:

 Under the terms of this agreement General Cailles is to assemble his men
 at Santa Cruz, Laguna province, as
 quickly as possible and there surrender himself and his command to the Amer ican authorities. The exact number of his force is uncertain, but there will probably be more than five hundred. | Washington, June 16,-Officials of the war department are very well pleased with the prospective surrender of Gen. eral Cailles, the Filipino insurgent lead 1 CT. Advices received at the department indicated that this would occur soon. Cailles is a man of considerable influ- ence and with his backing of some hun dreds of men has been menace to the efforts of the military authorities to stamp out the rebellion in Luzon. His equalization therefore is regarded with much satisfaction by the authorities here, who say they see in it another evidence of the general disintegration of the insurgent forces.
 Cailles has the reputation of being the most inhuman of Filipino insur- gents. He is said to have set a price upon every American head brought him and for his barbarity was exclud- ed from the amnesty proclamations. For some time he has said he would surrender if amnesty was guaranteed, but it does not appear that he has been assured of this

In addition to this varied list were
some round red bodies the origin OF

Transplanting Big Trees.

A woman of means who owned a
handsome country house on the Hud-
son was very fond of two beautiful
beech-trees which stood near her
residence. A few seasons ago she
bought house at Newport, and de-
cided that thereafter she would
spend her summers at that resort of
fashion. Accordingly she sold her
place on the Hudson; but i'm parting
with it she could not bear to
leave behind her favorite beeches.
She consulted firm that is en-
gagged in the business of moving large
trees, and they undertook the task of
transporting the two full-grown
beeches from eastern New York to
Newport. The undertaking was car
ried out with great care; the trees
were taken up, placed on scows, car
ried down the Hudson and up Long
Island Sound to Newport, where they
were set up before the woman's new
residence. A quantity of the soil of
their former home was brought along
to sustain them until they should
become accustomed to their new sur
roundings, and the trees received
every reasonable care and assistance.
The experiment was complete sue
cess. The moving of these two trees
is said to have cost their owner thirty
thousand dollars, and the feat is prob
ably the long-distance record for the
transplanting of trees.-Earl Mayo in
the June Woman's Home Companion.
