member, who claimed to be the Savior
and tried to burn UP his wife and child
was taken to the Dayton asylum today.
For week he has not eaten any food

here he put his hand under the needle
of a sewing machine at his home and
compelled his wife to work the treadle
of the machine, each time running the
needle thru his hand. The whole "holy
band" abstained from food for forty
eight hours last week. Several others
have shattered minds as result of the
queer religious excitement attendant
upon the bands services. Mrs. Tee

STRANGE Noises Make Her III.

Port Huron, Mich. Jan. Mrs. T.
II. Griggs, of this city. lies at the point
of death from nervous prostration sup
posed to be caused by mysterious rap
pings which are heard in her home
every night. Altho several officers,
neighbors and others were in the house
last night, the rappings came as usual
and We're plainly heard by all.
1t was shortly after IL o'clock that
Mrs. Griggs lay down on the bed with
her granddaughter. In the room were
the officers and a number of friends.
Rappings sounded at the foot of the
bed and then at the head, and scratches
as, of unseen finger nails could be heard
Then came loud rappings.
Everybody was excited for the mo-
ment and Mrs. Griggs jumped from the
bed shivering with fear. The men
hastily took the bed apart to see if
there We're any wires, but nothing could
be found. A search inside and out of
the house failed to reveal anything and
the mystery deepenei.
Mrs. Griggs says her husband is a
spiritualist, whom she is suing for a
divorce, and that he IS responsible for
the uncanny noises. He denies that
he is spiritualist, and says he was
driven away from his home by his
wife's peculiar actions. Griggs believes

WILL RAISE RATES.
Western Roads Preparing to Advance
Freight Charges.

Chicago, Jan 6.--Freight rates on
nearly all commodities transported by
western railroads are to be materially
raised during the next thirty days, and
If the scale at present contemplated
roads will be increased during 1903 by
at least $1G0,000,000.
The first step toward the advance
was taken al a meeting of western ex-
ecutive officials held yesterday, and
there was not dissenting voice to the
sentiment that freight rates should be
raised to meet the increased cost of la
Dor and materials.
The rates projected will be at least
5 per cent higher in all commodity tar
IFS. Probably so per cent of the traffic
of the country is moved on what are
known as commodity rates, the remain
ing traffic being carried on class rates.
The executive officials are actuated
largely by the fear that the increased
cost of everything that railroads buy in
manufacturing transportation will
make the maintenance of the present
dividend rates impossible during 1903.
The only recourse left is advanced
rates, and executive officials stated
the cost of trans portation should not
fluctuate with the cost of all other ne
cessities of life. I'VE are engaged in
manufacturing and selling one COM

ipino braves of the Moro tribe have
caused the American troops no little
annoyance since the occupation, by
their guerrilla warfare. The following
is an example of the letters received
at the war department In the last Phil

can officers in Mindanao bearing the
imprimata of the sultan and the Pana-
DUNCAN of Bacalod:
1--WE want war If you do not get out
Of here and go back to the sea, because
neither the sultan of Bacalod nor the
Panadungan wants to be your friend.
Within this month we want the war to
begin, and If you do not want 1t, you
are lot of cowardly rascals.
"Follow our Mohammedan religion.
DO not look for the Mausers, for we
have them. They We're captured by
Bantuas and Buarsings, people of the
sultan of Bacalod.
1--WE send our regards to the four
generals and their vermin. II you do
not want to go from here, come to this
place and the sultan and Panadungan
will take care of you, for you are lot
OF hogs that eat hogs, and in not pre-
senting yourselves at Bacalod, look out,
for we shall go to fight you"
