afOn Healer Has Great RecodRan May Spread the Yellow Fever

Grafton, N. d, Sept. 7.Rey. w, F..
Christmas, through his power Of divine
healing, has made many remark lle
cures here. The first cure which att
5tracted general attention was that sof
the. complete restoration of sight to a
Mr.. Olson an old man who had been
blind for years, and who used to walk
about the streets Of Grafton feeling his
way with cane.
Another case Of blindness was that
|of a girl 9 years old and born blind,
whose home is at Hensel N. d. She
was taken to the healer and, after re-
|ceiving one treatment, partly regained
her sight. Last week she came for
another treatment and now is able to
distinguish colors. 81 8.
A surprisingly large number of Grip
piles sought relief, many being cases
that had been given up as incurable by
the best medical authority II }55
"A most remarkable cure was that Of
Mrs. Frank Fairfield of Cavalier, who
Ave years ago dislocated her ankle,
ever since having suffered much pain
and being unable to use her foot. I'll
that could Be done to alleviate her suf-
fering had been done, and her physi-
| clan advised her to undergo an opera
Ition. Hearing of Rev. Mr.. Chrisrlas
and his wonderful power, she came and
received one treatment and then, with
out the. help Of her crutches, walked
to the station, a distance Of six blocks.
After returning home she continued to
| improve and, feeling greatly ercour-
aged decided to visit the healer again
!! for further treatment. She now
walks without crutches and has no SEN
sation Of pain or stiffness in her ankle

Many other authentic cases could be
Icited, but the above will give good
idea Of this mans wonderful power.
Rev. Mr.. Christmas first visited Graf,

Ottawa, Ont, Sept, Overtaken by
a heavy locomotive on steep incline,
down which they were rushing on a
railroad motor car at the rate of twenty
miles an hour in an effort to reach shell
ter from a terrific rainstorrn, Mrs. Viii
liam Dean Of Buffalo, a bride of six
weeks, and her step father, William. Vo-

near Londcn. sSs, &.
The rain was so heavy that the engi-
neer and fireman on the locomotive did
not know that the motor car was on
the rails in front of them. F. af a. ,ss
The tragedy was pathetic in itself
but when the trainmen learned, from,
friends Of the family that Mr.. Dean had
gone on a yachting trip on Lake Erie
several days ago, that no tidings had
been received from either him or his
yacht, and lit was feared he had been
drowned in a storm which swept over
the lake. their grief was intensified

& New Orleans, Sept 7.-Dr. Whites
warning to the people Of New Orleans
++tegaas on their guard against frequent
and excessive rainfalls during Septem-
Der which would tend largely to multi
ply the breeding places of stegomyia,
bids fair to be borne out SO far as pre-
cipitation is concerned, though the re-
duction in the number of new cases
|of fever during the past ten days
does not indicate that the mosquitoes
are to be allowed to take advantage Of
their opportunities. NAfter a forenoon
|of clear and pleasant weather, heavy
rain again set in today, flushing cutters
Throughout the city and creating fresh
ponds and pools in every vacant lot.
For ten days past there have been
showers nearly every day. Infection,
however, is spreading more and more
slowly and the conclusion drawn is
that screening of cisterns, oiling and
sailing of cutters and fumigation Of
premises, have accomplished the de-
struction Of millions, OF mosquitoes
(which otherwise would be depositing
their larvae in the new breeding places.
Today's record was again favorable
one with a diminished number of new
cases and deaths only slightly above
recent day. While new foci continue to
appear they are offset by the elimina-
ton Of foci from which there has been
|no secondary infection during the tfiir-
Ity days set AS tniilimum limit by the

RUSSIAN SITUATION ~A
IS WORSE THAN WAR

St Petersburg, Sept News from
Baku received up to the time of fling
this dispatch is of the gloomiest charac-
ter. The Armenian and Tartar warning
factions are now said to be entirely
beyond control, the streets of Baku seem
to be unsafe for the inhabitants and the
force OF troops to be inadequate to re-
slst the anarchial tendencies of the COM
batants. According to reliable reports
troops have been forced to withdraw
from the suburb of Bakhalan, where on
Tuesday the rioters set fire to the oil
works and that place is now in the hands
OF Iartars who have completed the work
of destruction and who, 1t is said, mas
sacred inhabitants who did not accom-
pany troops in their retirement. Tele-
graphic and telephonic communication
with the disturbed region is cut off.
The governor of the Caucasus has
dispatched reinforcements of troops to
Tifiis, but with these reinforcements it
is thought troops will be inadequate to
cope with the situation.
Representatives of the oil industry
here are utterly Respondent and they
declare that on the basis of telegrams
SO far received more than half of the
industry in Baku has been wiped out
and the fire is making rapid inroads into
the remainder of the oil territory
The Baku representative of a promi-
rient oil company has telegraphed to his
st. Petersburg headquarters as follows:
1T is no longer a question of saving
our property but one of getting out
alive" 49, rf"s T&$

proved by the censor say; r.zz$ lsSE

Istrating in their own quarters secretly.
The situation is exceedingly tense Cam.

| Moslem quarter patrols have been fired

parently Tartars. Cannonading there is
| unceasing" ,t5 s.ss's
Other advices state that hot fight
is going on between the Armenians and
Tartars at Bibiebat and that great fires
are still raging at Sabunto and Nomani,
| fed by immense tanks of naptha, Of
which there are 10000 in that region,
| and that the confagration at Baku,
where up to last evening the tanks of the
society of Baku were intact, is steadily
increasing. Under these conditions,
with fighting going on in the streets and
with a hurricane blowing, the adyices
say, it will be almost impossible to ex-}
tinguish the fires. @ ss

GRAVE IN WAR AND IN PEACE

The Macon News pays the follow
ing merited tribute to one of Geor-
gia'S ablest and best men:
Among the prominent visitors
in attend a ice on the Veterans state
reunion, is Col. j. H. Estill of
Savannah. This gentleman was
brave Confederate soldier. Inwar
and in peace he has been a patriot
and a true Southerner. Col. Estill
has always taken great interest
in the reunions of the gallant men
who wore the gray. He cherishes
the traditions of the South and of
her people. Col. EStill is one of the
most distinguished journalists in
the Southern country. AS proprie-
tor of that splendid and reliable
newspaper, The Morning News,
his name is known to hundreds of
thousands OF people, not only IN
Georgia, but in numerous other
states. He has been eminently
successful as a publisher, and has
won the richest success in many of
the other avenues of business. Col.
Estill has done much for the in
dustrial and commercial develop
ment of Georgia. He has been a
potential factor in the material
growth of this state, and has con-
tributed largely to the contentment
and peace of the people, and the
prosperity and welfare of the com
monwealth. Col. Estill is being
given a cordial welcome in Macon
by veterans, and other Georgians.

WILLIE is THE WHOLE THING

Like President Roosevelt, En-
perior William never fails to arouse
enthusiasm or excite friendly inter
est wherever he goes. A friend
describing his character says:
"Whenever he attends christen-
ing, he thinks he is the baby;when-
ever he honors a wedding with his
presence, he imagines that he is
the bride; and whenever he at
tends a funeral, somehow or other
he invariably manages to get hold
of the idea that he is the corpse"
1t would be difficult for such a
man as the German Emperor to
imagine himself a dead man, al
though hemay look gloomy enough
to please the mourners.
