BERLIN WITCH DOCTORS.
They Claim to Drive Diseases of Men
and Beasts Into Trees.

Berlin. July IA curious superst1-
ton begins to gain a large number of
supporters in Berlin, the capital OF the
enlightened German empire
The witch doctors, named Grau, Fret
berg and Hermann, have established a
reputation for graduating disease from
men and beasts by driving it into trees.
The cures are effected at night on
Tuesdays and Fridays of the week of
full moon and there must be trees in
the neighborhood to receive the castout
disease. A condition is that the moon
must be visible.
Al needle is stuck into the skin cover
ing the affected part of the body and
remains there until a few drops of
blood appear. The blood is collected on
a sheet of paper and the paper is rolled
into the shape of a pill.
The doctor then goes into a wood
alone carrying this pill, selects a tree
and inoculates the bark with the pill
The process of blood-letting and inocu
lation is repeated three times. "Drs. ="
Grau, Freiberg and Hermann tell the
police they did not invent their proce-
dure, but inherit it from their parents.
The ancient Germans in the second
and third centuries practiced exactly
the same hocus-pocus, although Grau
and his friends don't know it. Grau
Freiberg and Hermann have had hun
dreds of patients and the attentions of
the police are deeply resented by a
large number of their adherents.

politics. The story is an interesting
one, and am going to try to tell it in

FOR CITY OWNERS HIP.
Kansas City, ks, May Be Asked to
Purchase the Waterworks-

Kansas City, Kas., July 9.-The
mayor and council of Kansas City,
Kas. will be asked .tonight to take
some action relative to the present
condition of the city water. probably to
purchase the plant For some tine past
the water furnished by the Metropoli-
tan Water company, which is the only
company that the city can look to for
its water supply. has been wholly un-
1T for use, and much inconvenience has
resulted from this state of affairs. The
water is so muddy that to use it for
Eprinkling purposes proves entirely I'M
satisfactory, much less to use for
drinking and cooking purposes
DR.. E. J. Lutz- formerly police sur
geon, and one of the leading local
physicians. IS enthusiastic over the
proposition of municipal ownership of
the waterworks, if not of all public
utilities. However, he says that the
city should lose no time in acquiring
its own water plant. He states that
the purchase of the water plant by
Kansas City. No. has proven a good
investment and that there is no reason
why this city should not be getting its
water supply free and adding a little
money to the city's finances each
month The doctor said yesterday that
fl the property of the present company
cannot be purchased at a reasonable
price, then the city should proceed at
once to build plant OF its own.
