Boston, March 15.-The labor situa- tation and anxiety is gradually assum ing normal conditions and at the close of business today the great majority of freight handlers, teamsters and express strike of the freight handlers of the New York. New Haven x Hartford railroad on Wednesday and Thursday had returned to work. As announced by Governor Crane, just before leaving the state house tonight, the disposi- tion of all parties is to allow a reason able time to adjust matters and in the meantime to be patient. Much to the satisfaction of the business commun- ity, freight began to move today, and much work was accomplished in reliev-
 ing the congestion of freight at the different distributing points.
 The state board of arbitration at 3
 p. m. issued the following statement:
 "The strike condition continues to i'm
 prove. The coal people are working
 with few exceptions. The Clyde Steam
 ship company will take back all of its
 men as the ships arrive. One is eX- pected tomorrow. The Metropolitan
 Steamship company have fifty-four of
 their men at work and will take as
 many more later. Nine-tenths of the general teamsters are at work.
 To add to the general satisfaction ever the labor situation in Boston came the word late this afternoon that an- other labor war in the mills of the
 Fall river had been averted, so the
 week closed with something like peace
 in the old Bay state.
 The work of reinstatement which, through the efforts of the goverhor, t5-
 gan yesterday. continued today, but in greater degree. Of the 800 men of the Boston & Maine road who struck on Wednesday, 150 were offered their oiCi positions by President Futile this
 morning, and he also stated that the remainder would be taken care of in short time. The same disposition was shown at the Boston &S Albany offices, where arrangements were made to take back the old men at former wages and at the same time have to work in no way to conflict with the new men, who are all non union. This was also acceptable to the labor or
 ganizations, and this afternoon the
 men began to report for duty.
 The fact that the general teamsters were at work made it imperative that the railroads should complete their la boring forces, as great amount of merchandise is now being collected all over the city and hauled to freight houses All coal teamsters were at work again today, as well as the piano movers and wool haulers. The lumber yards, however. continued, closed, and those old men who sought places prac- tically found themselves locked out. The dealers, however, announced that
 the yards would open again Monday.
 and all the men would be taken back
 again. in accordance with the gov
 ernor's suggestion.
 There was a little furry this morning among striking men, when upon re-
 turning to the offices they found that their present services were not required.
 The men rushed back to headquarters and for a while indulged in heated de-
 bate, but the counsel of leaders pre-

TOOK THE HINT.
Friend Told Him to Change His F,

Y llenQ l old linn to change Ills rood.
 Once in a while one can serve friend and win d life long obligation by d little good advice. This is worth while. Very thankful 1 was to q friend for his advice when he told me about Grape Nuts Breakfast Food at the time I was suffering. My stomach trouble originally came from neglect of colds which caused catarrh of the stomach. then followed misery from dyspepsia, headache, loss of vitality and flesh.
 Last August q friend in discussing my health said if I would change my food and take Grape Nuts instead of any other food or medicine for one week he would guarantee that I would be greatly improved and feel like q new man.
 He was so positive that l concluded to try it and. as l said, I am exceed ingly thankful to him. In a week $ time l lost the heavy. dead feeling in my head, nausea had ceased and the action of my general system had great ly improved.
 l have stuck fast to Grape Nuts. Now l weigh nine pounds more and am steadily improving. Grape Nuts has q most collaborating effect on the system and makes one feel bright and alive as though they were well nourished as a healthy man should be.
 The price of Grape-Nuts is within reach of all, but I consider it worth its weight in gold.'' John Haywood, 3931 Aspen St, Philadelphia, Pa.

FROM RELIGIOUS FRENZY
Follower OF FanaticaI Sect i'm Ohio
Becemes Insane.

Mancnester, o. May 31.--There is a

Vival meetings conducted by Evangelist
John W. Harris, who advocates the doc

Gods Bible school on Mt. Auburn, Gin
cinnati.
For some time past Evangelist Harris
has been holding revivaIs at EIIsberry
and Bradyville. little hamlets few miles
from Aberdeen, Brown county. His De-
culiar manner of exhortation and his
unique views drew the farming commun-
ity to his meetings. Within couple Of
weeks from his advent into Brown county
farmers and their wives within radius
OF five miles neglected their work TO at

AS result of Harris religious gather

Teeters, young farmer of ElIsberry. is
now hopeless maniac at the Dayton
state asylum. Several others have been
examined as to their sanity, while many
women of that neighborhoow are on the
verge of being sent TO the probate court
at Georgetown for mental examination.
Men and women became so excited at
these meetings with religious fervor that
they were for the time being immsne to
slf-infiicted tortures.
John Teeters surpassed the fanaticaI re-
ligious fakirs OF India in inhicting torture
upon himself. At one Of the meetings
Teeters took red-hot glass chirnneys from
lamps, held them in his hands. rubbed his
face with them. and, though the skin and
flesh of his hands and face elung TO the
hot chimneys. the man sang and yelled
GLORY to God" and his fanatical COM
panions cried:
The Lord has made Brother Teeter
proof against heat and pain"
At another session this young farmer
poured coal oil over his person from head
to foot and started to set fire to himself.
saying that ne wanted to burn out the
devil that was within him and purify his
soul.
Teeters would rush at people in the
meetings and yell; You have the devil
Then he would turn somersaults. land on
his head and spin like top. He would
lay rigid for hours. as if in a trance:
then at other times he would wave and
twirl his arms like a windmill.
Mrs Toeters is also in a critical condi-
ton mentally. She does not believe her
husband is insane. saying that her John
has only gone a little distance to confer
