DRENCHED7HEDOWIEITES
Hose Turned on the Disciples Of
Zionism to Stop a Riot.
Undertook to Hold a Meetin. in Evan.
ston, ILL.,, Surrounded by Their Guards
Leaders Assailed With Missiles.

Chicago.-Followers of John AleSan-
der Dowie made an attempt to convert
the citizens OF Evanston and failed, as
on former occasions. They visited the
place in greater force than ever before,
there being fully 200 of them, but their
increased numbers only brought them
a greater defeat. One-half of the
Dowieites were followers of "Zion,"
and the remainder were members Of
the paid body guard which Dowie
maintains. The guards were intended
to prevent any interference with the
meeting, and when it began they sur
rounded the Dowieites. to hold back
the crowd of fully 1900 people, which
gathered rapidly as soon as it was
known that another Dowie meeting
was in progress.
AS on on former occasions eggs and
vegetables were quickly used, and the
guards and those whom they were try
Ing to protect were soon spattered
with yolks and battered with old veg
etables. Several fights resulted between
the guards and people Of the town,
generally with damaging results to
the guards.
The entire police force of Evanston
was called into service. and after the
Chief of Police had ordered the Dow
ieites to withdraw and had met with
q refusal. he ordered his men to charge
them. The police did not use their
clubs, and the guards held them back
by sheer force of numbers. E.
The crowd meanwhile was growing
ugly, and Mayor Bates, Of Evanston.
seeing that unless something was
done quickly people would be serious
ly hurt and possibly killed, ordered
fire engine. The engine at once
turned q four-inch stream on the
Dowieites and they went over like
tenpins.
Women, as well as men, were
thrown down by the stream, and sent
rolling in the mud. The people of
Evanston danced and hooted with de-
light as the firemen steadily advanced,
driving the Dowieites before them in
utter rout. The work was done with
impartiality, and any Dowieite dila-
tory in movement was washed along
by the stream.
AS the Dowieites fed. the lombard
ment with eggs and vegetables was
resumed, and added materially in rid
ding the town of the presence of the
Zionists. Elder Piper, of Dowie's
church, who had been in command Of
the small army, was arrested on
charge of disorderly conduct.
About twenty other Dowieites were
taken into custody, more to save them
from the crowd in the streets than
for any other reason. The Dowieites
say they will return in greater force,
and the people Of Evanston declare
that the next riot will be just so much
the larger

TURKEY PAYS UP AT LAST
American Indemnity Claims Are Salts
factori|y Settled.
WASHINGTON OFFICIALS PLEASED

The State Department Receives $4,000
From the Porte-Claims Are Based on
Losses Suffered by American Mission.
arics In Armenia-Had Been Pending
For Over a Decade.
Washington, D. C.-The State De-
partment has received the amount Of
the American indemnity claim against
Turkey-$95, ,O0O-through the Amer
lean Legation at Constantinople.
The money was paid by the Turkish
Government to Mr.. Leishman, the
United States Minister at CONSTANT
nople. 1t was placed by him in the
Ottoman Imperial Bank, and drafts
were remitted for the amount. These
drafts have just reached washington.
AS Is usually the case, the claims in
the aggregate considerably exceed the
amount Of the indemnity actually paid,
but the United States Government
has expressed itself satisfied with the
payment. 1t assumes full RESPONSE
bility for the distribution, the Turkish
Government paying down a.lump sum.
and leaving it to the State Department
to distribute among the claimants at
is discretion and after its own fashion.
1t Is stated that as soon as the de-.
partment officials can prepare their
lists, they will communicate directly
with the claimants.
The claims are principally based
upon losses suffered by American mis-
sionary and educational institutions in
Turkey, notably those at Harput and
Marash. but there are a number Of
individual claims, such, for instance,
as that of the family Of the unfortun-
ate bicyclist LEM, the Pittsburg man,
who was killed by Turkish soldiers
while attempting to 60 around the
globe on his wheel.
The State Department officials feel
the greatest satisfaction at the settle
ment Of the claims. Secretary Hay
has been told by diplomats skilled in
the ways Of Oriental diplomacy, that
he never would be able to collect them.
Not only was there extreme difficulty
in bringing any pressure to bear on
Turkey. but the United States had to
contend with the jealousy of the great
European powers, most of whom have
claims against Turkey vastly larger in
amount than Americas, and the total
IF which is beyond the ability Of the
Turkish Government to meet. ;
For more than q decade the Amer
lean claims have been pending. Min
lister Terrell first presented them, DR..
ANGEL went over to collect them, ex-
pecting to be so engaged only short
time. but he returned unsuccessful
after several years in Constantinople.
Then Minister Strauss took them up.
and when he resigned he passed them
along to Mr.. Griscom. The last-named
only recently committed his charge to
Mr.. Leishman, and while to Mr.. Leish-
man belongs the credit Of actually col
lecting the money, 1t is said at the
State Department that each and every
one of the officials named has con-
tributed valuable services toward the
inal settlement.

TEACHING Children to Act.

Probably no actor was ever more
successful in teaching children how
to act than the last James A. Herne.
He always had children In every pro-
duction he had anything to do with.
and was perhaps responsible for more
"stage children" than any other actor.
When he made his first production OF
ashore Acres" wonderful things were
accomplished with the children he en-
ployed.
1T requires a great deal of pa
tience," said Mr.. Herne, short time
before his death, ito teach children
how not to act, but to be natural
always cautioned their mothers not to
attempt doing anything with them,
except to help teach them the lines
and leave the rest to me. When this
is done had no trouble, and the re-
suits attained fully repaid me. or
course there is a great. difference
among children who become players,
lust as there is among grown people.
Some of them are very bright, quick
to remember advice and capable OF
carrying out instructions, but as a rule
the children who grasp On idea slowly
make the best players. New YORK

FRED. D. WHITE A SUICIDE
Son OF Ambassador White Shoots Him
sell Through the Head.
VICTIM OF TEMPORARY INSANITY

The Deed Committed in tho Bathroom
of His House in Syracuse Had Been
Ill q Year and His Nervous System
Was Completely Shattered - Had
Planned q Visit to His Father.
Syracuse, N. Y.-Frederick D. White,
son of the United States Ambassador
to Germany, died suddenly on Mon
day, and Notwithstanding the an
nouncement that death was due to
cerebral hemorrhage, the unfortunate
fact is that he committed suicide. A
bullet was the medium through which
he ended his life.
Mr.. Whites act is ascribed to men
tai arrangement which followed an
attack Of typhoid fever and aggra-
waited by the recent terrible heat wave.
At any rate it Is certain that for
some time he had given evidence Of
melancholia and his family expected
that in quest of renewed health and
better spirits he would sail on the
Deutschland for Ringen Island, a Ger
man summer resort. There, 1t was an
ticipated, he would meet his father,
Andrew D. White, the Ambassador.
Mr.. White killed himself in the old
family home here. He ate the mid
day meal as usual with his wife and
his eleven-year-old child. His antici-
pated visit to his father abroad
formed the chief topic Of conversa-
ton. He Joined in the talk, seeming
ly in earnest, betraying not the slight
est sign of any desperate Intention.
During the afternoon he occupied
himself in the several preparatory ar
rangements and at $50 went upstairs
to the bathroom. Mr.. White had ap-
peared to be in usual health during
the day, and had. attended to matters
of business, in the management Of the
White estate. He was alone in the
house with the servants during part
Of the late afternoon, Mrs. White and
his son being out.
Mrs. White returned shortly after 6
o'clock and sought him in his library.
She found that he had been making
out his usual monthly checks in the
transaction of business, and had evil
dently broken off abruptly. She went
through the house looking for him,
and to the bathroom on the second
floor. She there found him lying dead
on the floor. A rifle. which he still
held in his right hand told the story.
Then servants came rushing up, and
DR.. Henry G. Locke was hastily sum-
moned. The physician answered with
in FIVE minutes after the call, but his
services were of no avail. Death, DR..
Locke said, had doubtless been in
stantaneous. He found that the bull
let had entered the head through the
right temple.
It was thought advisable at first to
announce that Mr. Whites death was
due to cerebral hemorrhage, but the
futility of any attempt to conceal the
sad circumstances was soon acknowl-
edged.
Frederick D. White was forty-one
years old. He was the manager of q
successful cement manufacturing COM
pany, of Sandusky. Ohio. and also
looked after his fathers vast estate
in Syracuse. His wife Is the daughter
Of General D. K. Bruce, postmaster Of
this city.

Plenty Of Photos.

"Would you be kind enough to re.

gave it to you in moment OF girllsh
folly, and I have since had occasion
to regret that was so thoughtless IN
such matters" OF course, she pic
tured that photograph framed and
hung up in his room, and was inclined
to think that he would part with 1t
with deep regret. Just why she want
ed it returned is immaterial.
OF course, he had offended her IN
some way, but it is unnecessary to in
quire how. The reply to her note
came the following day.
II regret" it read, that am unable
at this late day to pick out your photo
