command Of the prince"
She said that she had been unable
TO attend every meeting and the fines
imposed for her disobedience had ac-
cumulated until she was unable to pay
and she was expelled. To her, saliva
because Of her poverty. She says she
will lose her husband, as in addition
to being damned, the prince" is said
to have warned her husband not to live
with his expelled wife on penalty of
also being damned.
To Save Husband
Large tears coursed down her inky
cheeks as she told her story and begged
the police to "save' her husband to
her. The police advised her to con-
suit a lawyer when her husband de-
serts her and the officers will make an
investigation of the prince and his
new religion.
A representative of The Herald called
upon the prince at his big tent Satur-
day night and was received with great
oordiality. The prophet was delighted
to see him and have the opportunity
of explaining his religion.
Around the tent all was quiet and
still as death, the negroes fitting from
the big tent to the smaller ones like
shadows, no noise of any kind being
made by them, and their faces were
solemn.
The prince escorted the newspaper
man into his private realm and sat
down in all the glory of his uniform
of blue and brass buttons. When asked
to tell about this new religion of his,
he said:
'Yassah, rs a man of Gawd. Ry

lead NAH race to glory. An eff rs

Replying to the query as to how
the fallen ones were restored to grace.
he said:

NEGRO 'PROPHET"
FINES MEMBERS
COSTS ONE DOLLAR TO FALL
FROM GRACE
HAS SCORES OF FOLLOWERS
PecuIiarities of New Tangled Religion
Being Taught to Negroes and
Some Caucasians in Los
Angeles
HAS SCORES OF FOLLOWERS

A new tangled religion has appeared
in Los Angeles through the teachings
of a negro prophet Of God,' who
styles himself prince" C. Allen, and
who has gathered about him a large
congregation of negro and white wor-
shippers, whose one idea Is that of
servile obedience to the dictates of
this self-styled representative of God
in Los Angeles.
The prophet" holds forth in a large
white tent at Central avenue and
Easton street. Here he gathers his fol-
lowers on each Saturday, which is their
Sabbath, and holds them in restraint
until Sunday. On Friday, sufhcient
food is cooked and prepared to feed
the multitude until Sunday, so that
the literal obedience to the injunction
to rest on the seventh day may be
observed.
One of the many peculiarities of this
new tangled religion is the ease with
which a member may fall from grace
and be restored to the group of the
elect" If, for any reason, member
shall incur the displeasure of the
prince" or disregard any OF his rules
Of conduct, that one Is "cast off," or
expelled from the fold, and the only
way he can return and become again
elected" is to pay one dollar to the
"prince." BY making this cash atone-
ment the offender again becomes spot
less" and is again saved. Without the
cash, he may pray and remain
damned" according to the teachings
of the prophet"
Some Whites in Flock
The great proportion Of his following
are negroes, but he proudly boasts that
he has several white folks" among
the list. These are equally as servile
and meek in obedience to the prince"
as his negro members.
Any member that works ON Saturday
is promptly expelled from the fold and
is fined one dollar upon repentance
and application for re-entry. The same
fate overtakes any member who shall
fail to show up each night at the meet
ings. Little short Of death is accepted
as a valid excuse for absence.
One of the latest to fall from grace
and thereby bring troubles down upon
her head and family is Mrs. c. II.
Hicks, black nanny" who. lives
at 24S1 Grand avenue.
She called at the police station satur-
day afternoon, leading her two picka-
ninnies. and asked for police aid in
protecting her from the loss of her

 The injured: Mrs. Bond. Mrs. ?. R. Rowley. Mrs. Wallace Clark.
 The members of the Ladies Aid So- ciety of the Universalist church went to a farm house near Arkport to spend the afternoon. It was nearly dark when they started on the return trip to the city. The occupants of the leading sleigh saw the train approach ing as they neared Shawmut crossing.
 The driver urged his horses ahead and the sleigh passed over the tracks in safety. The women in the first sleigh then attempted to warn those in the one following of the danger and they did succeed in directing their at tentiOn to the rapidly approaching train. The driver pulled up his horses but he could not check the heavy bob sled quickly enough and when it came to a staudstnI the box Of the sleigh was directly across the railroad track. The pilot of the engine struck the sleigh with great force, reducing it to splinters and hUrling the women in all directions Every woman on the sled was killed or injured.
 The train was stopped and the dead and injured were brought to HorneIls- vile.

Favorable results are expected to follow an audience given by Emperor Nicholas at TsarslIae Selo to thirty TWO workmen representing the leading industrial establishments of St. Pet crsburg. In addition to paternaI ad- monitions bestowed upon the worImen, $25,O0O has been given by the emperor, empress and dowager empress for the relief of the families of those killed or badly wounded in the affair of Jan. 22
 The manufacturers of St. Petersburg have made concessions to the strik- CTS and contributed to the relief fund. The situation in Poland and other pro yinces continues strained. and strikes are reported from IrIutsk and several other Siberian towns. The retirement of Prince SviaJopoIk Mirsky from the ministry of the interior has been ac- cOmpIfshed in such a way as to indi- cate that the emperor is satisfied to he rid of a minister of avowed liberal tendencies. The forecast that II. Bou- logan will be named for the place is construed as indicating a recognition of Grand Duke Sergius' predominant ing influence with his nephew, the em- TeTOr.

The Plans of Kuropatkin Defeated by the Intense COld-TerribIe Suffer ings of the Wounded Whose Blood Was Turned to Red Ice.

Russi2n hadquarters, Huan Moun- tain, Feb. 1-The five days combat which will go down in history as the battle of Hun river was fought on seemingly intending plain which is broken only by the southern Amethyst mountain around Tentai. on the soli- tdry cminenCe of which is LiaO Yang. tower Of bloody memories. The bright glare Ol sun reflected from a dazzling eNpanse of snow was painful to the eyes, and it was with great difficulty that one could follow here and there the black streaks marking the Russian columns or the Waveriug skirmish lines dashtnS against what resembled dull gray rocks, but which in reality were the villages of Lidiatouu and Taulepu and the extensive hamlet of Sandepas, bastiOucd by Chienese Gefcuses and converted by the Japanese into verit- able fOrtresses. Exposed to the fu~ tense cold of tn Mauchuriau winter, the mounds of earth had become like granite and as impenetrable as the sides Of 9 modern battleship.
 For five days the Russian soldiers hurled themselves against the defen- seS and the field artillery pounded them until the frosty air reverberatcd with thunder of cannon the din of bursting shells and the rattle of mus kctry, but neither steel pointed shell nor nickel bullets availed against the frozen earthworks. The gunuers ac- tually wept with despair at the i'm pOtence of the attack. Mortar bat teries came LID at a galIop in the hope of demoralizing the Qualifications. Night and day a stream of shells was poured against the earthworks, but it had very little effect. The men seem ed indifferent to hunger and cold, which was of arctic intensity. Their fingers, hands and feet were benumb- ed. while the stinging snow and dust blinded them. The slightest wound caused eXcruciatiug pain. The warm blood no sooner eEUded from the lacer- atcd flesh than it began to freeze. TEe wounded could not be left exposed and

Surgeons, their assistants and nurses were almost pOweriess in the bandaging of wounds for they were obliged to wear leather gloves or mittens in order to resist the cold. The men seemed to be living again the horrors of the winter cam paign of 1912 against the Turks. Everything that could be done was done but the men were powerIess in the face of nature, which heaped tor lures upon the troops and defeated the we'll thought out plan of the com mander.

A FRIENDLY CHAT.
The Little Father Talks to His ChiI-
 dren Like a Dutch Uncle.

St Petersburg Feb. 1-Person2I as surances of his intention to amelioratc conditions and giving the causes. in so far as they were economic, which led to the recent strike, were delivered by Emperor Nicholas yesterday to work ingmen representing the leading facto- ries of St. Petersburg. who. at his in vitation. journeyed to Tsarskoe .SeIo, and were received in audience in the hall of Alexander Palace. where he has his winter office.
 The interview face to face with their Little Father" in whom their faith has not been shaken by the events of the bloody Sunday of Jan. 22, has had a far greater and more reas- suring effect than any number of proc lamations by ministers and governor generals and the Workmen Of St. Pet ersburg are now generally inclined to accept the promises of Governor Gen e-al TrepOm and Finance Minister Kc- kOvsoff at their face value A gift by the imperial family of S25,o0G to aid the families of the victims of the con hict on Jan. p, also has had an excel lent effect, and as the news slowly pen etrates the labOrinE classes of Russia, it is expected that it will make them content to wait for the promised re forms.
 Like a wave caused by the faliinE of a stone, the strike movement, however, is speeding over the great sea of Rus sian industrial life and while St. Pet ersbUrE and Moscow. where the trOu- bIes began, are now placid, the work men of Poland and other provinces are not yet calm, and the ripple has reach ed to far off Irllu-sN and other Sibe- riau towns.
