FIVE VICTIMS IN THE ASYLUM

Salem, Ore, Sept. 22.--J. Il, Creffield
the founder and leader OF Holy Roller
ism, is earning his bread by the sweat
of his brow. He is earning an honest
living, II not at an honest mans en-
ployment. Along with scores Of other
men In convict stripes, he Is helping
to set up stoves in the foundry at the
Oregon penitentiary, and Is doing faith
ful work and giving no trouble.
II he has any religious beliefs which
he desires to impart to others. he care
fully restrains his desire. for not q
word has passed his lips since his ar
rival at the prison to indicate that he
has any message to communicate to
mankind. The next morning after he
was brought here he was assigned tc
duty in the stove foundry. and he has
gone through the regular prison rout-
inc, as every other prisoner has done.
Across the field half mile away. at
the state insane asylum. are confined
five persons whose lives were wrecked
by Creffield and whose mental derange-
ment shows no signs Of improvement.
Seven persons were sent to the asy-
lum because of the immoral delusions
put into their heads by the teachings
Of Creffield. These were: Mrs. Cref-
field, Frank Hurt, Mrs. Hurt. Mrs. o,
v. Hurt, Miss Seley. Miss Hartley and
Miss Bray.
Miss Seley improved enough so that
she was given over to the custody Of
who are caring for her. Mrs.
o. v. Hurt was taken home last week,
though she has not recovered. All the
others show no indication OF abandon
ing their delusions. They persist in
BOiHB udAcLOOts Wcaitub ehSh hah uh-
kempt and reading their Bibles. Under
the rules OF the institution they are not
permitted to be careless in their dress
or behavior, but at every opportunity
they try to return to the ways taught
them by Creffield.
Before Creffield went into hiding he
told his followers not to fear for his
we'll being. for the Lord would pro-
tect him and the officers could not cap
ture him. Asylum authorities were OF
the opinion that as soon as Creffield
had been captured his adherents would
see the falsity Of his claims and lose
faith in him and his teachings. This
much desired effect has not been expe-
rienced, however, for neither the cap
ture nor the conviction and imprison-
ment of their leader has in the least
weakened the hold Of the Holy Rollers
upon their strange deluslons.

fused.
New York, Sept. 22.-Negotiations for
the purchase of close to 100000 tons of
steel rails from the United States Steel
Corporation by the Hartman lines
were said yesterday to be pending,
with a probability Of being closed in
a day or two. The Pittsburg report
that the contract had been completed
was denied at the office Of E. H. Har-
riman.
An official of the United States Steel
Corporation said yesterday that the
Hartman lines some weeks ago Of
fered to buy 100000 tons delivered at
$24 ton. They were told that unless
they were willing to pay the pool price
.$2S-negotiatlons might as well be
dropped. They continued, however, and
steel manufacturer in a position to
speak authoritatively, said yesterday
that the order would be placed soon,
at the pool price.
The United States Steel Corporation
is willing, however, to sign a contrct
guaranteeing rebate provided there is
any reduction in the price of rails.
The order, IL placed, will be divided be-
tween the United States Steel Corpor-
alton and the Colorado Fuel G. Iron

English Axes at Hastings.

At the battle of Hastings the corps
d'elite Of the English army were ac-
coutred with sword spd shield, and in
addition to this they had hung "great
hatchets on their necks, with which
they could strike doughty blows"
Whenever special deed of vaIor is
credited to an Englishman in that
battle, with one exception, it is due 10
the ak he bears. And now what were
these axes that dealt such deadly de-
struction on the Norman knight? AS to
this we are left in NO doubt. Time
after time does WAGE call them great
axes" The head alone in one instance
was a foot in length. And the Bayeux
tapestry out of about twenty axes
represents all except some three as
having long handles. Hardly ever do
we find in tapestry the short AZ for
one hand.

LIFE UNDER WATER.
Night In a Observation-Disclosures OF
Supersurface Sounds.

Night In Submarine-Distin OF
Supersurface Sounds.
Jules Verne has been indicated His
dream ship. which for generations has
been voyaging under 10000 leagues Of
imaginary water, has at last become
reality-a submarine fact. 1t has
been demonstrated to the satisfaction
Of the United States navy that Captain
Memo and his tabled Nautilus have
been ecHpsed, or. in nautical phrase,
submerged by a modern submarine tor
pedo devil. the Fulton. which recently
spent q comfortable night ON the bot
tom Of Narragansett Bay.
On the night following the speed and
firing tests, it was decided that the
habitability test should be made by
submerging the Fulton at the bottom
of the bay. This was the first test
ever made under naval supervision to
determine whether men can live aboard
q submarine boat under water as safe
ly as they could in Newport villa.
Cooking utensils as we'll as reading
matter and other articles Of comfort
and necessity were installed on the
Fulton during the afternoon, and at
1O:43 that evening the boat was sunk,
with nine men aboard. One of the first
impressive features Of the experience
was the distinctness with which sound
was conveyed to the party under wa
ter In the small hours of the morn
ing the crew were awakened by near
ing what was afterward explained to
have been the Fall River liner Plym-
outh touching at Newport en- route
from Fall River to New York.
Although the Plymouth did not pass
within mile of the submerged Fulton,
several of the submerged party were
awakened by hearing her ploughing
through the water. Prior to retiring
for the night the water-fmprisoned
company had an excellent meal, which
was prepared on board, and after the
boat was submerged. All the cooking
as well as lighting was by electricity.
and had it been necessary the boat
could have been heated by the same
means.
The air reservoirs were filled to their
full capacity of forty cubic feet; and
when the Fulton rose to the surface at
11O6 a. M. after being under water
for twelve hours and twenty-three min
utes, there was hardly a perceptible
difference between the air of the sub
merged boat and that Of the surface
world.
As a result Of these tests the naval
board of inspection and survey will
the expenditure Of the
$3.50, 900 recently appropriated by Con-
gress for submarine destroyers Of the
Fulton type. This means that the
United States soon will have a fotilla
Of a dozen submarine devils for defen-
rive and offensive purposes during war.
