Holy Rollers And Huggers
Make New Religious Sect

Boyd Lake. Me-, Sept. 21.-Elder
Thomas X. Francis, or "Holiest
Father" Francis. as he is called by
converts to his new religion. has been
asked by a delegation of orthodox resi-
dents of this hamlet to leave town or
run his chances of getting the coat OF
tar and feathers he narrowly missed a
few weeks ago. The elder says he'll
squat right where he is, and so the
fever Of excitement has run high.
Francis, who is the son OF an or
dained minister now preaching at
Athol. Mass, arrived at Boyd Lake last
spring and went to live with Mr.. and
Mrs. Freeland II. Gilman. where he
announced to the neighbors that he
would lead religious meetings in the
small school-house near by. At that
time Rev. William Bradeen, q Baptist
minister, used the school-house for his
meetings. but the religion taught by
the newcomer was so spectacular that
interest was soon lost in the Baptist
faith, and Mr.. Bradeen's whole congre.

The tenets Of the religion taught by
Elder Francis were unusual, and their
novelty brought out crowd who
scoifed at first, but later remained to
worship. The elder said he was i'm
bued with the theory that all souls
are one, that purity of heart iSevery-
thing, and that in vi--v Of this. N sects
! should be abandoned. Some OF the
congregation inferred from this that
free love was the central idea, and
some Of the men kept their wives ant
daughters at home. The free love idea
was strengthened when the elder anc

ly called on the Lord to bear witness tc
their joy.
CONVERTS ROLL, HUG AND KISS
This rolling, hugging and kissinl
was almost too much for the old fash
Toned Baptists. but one by one they
were gathered into the fold, and at re.
cent meetings they have been rolling
hugging and kissing promiscuously
Newcomers are invariably shocked t
find half the congregation bobbins

ed men carrying the feathers, tar, pot
and rail filed out and headed for tho
elders house. The prophet, however
had disappeared and nothing came Of
the visit.
Francis expressed great indignation
at this turn of affairs and, backed by
his congregation, swore out warrants
for the ringleaders. They we're all ar
rested and are now out on bail. Tho
arrests stopped for the time being any
further attempt to deal harshly with
the elder, but as he had been creating
more and more excitement 1t is likely
that the rail, the tar pot and the feath-
ers will soon be reproduced.
The meetings since the tar -and -feath.
er episode. have become more and more
unique. The believers say that the non
believers are trying to prevent them
from getting rid Of the devil, and that
they are SHINING deeply thereby. One
member tells how the devil almost got
him. but was sidetracked by a fox.
He testified in meeting as follows:
nv" oNE MAN DoDuED he DEN

there in the moonlight stood the devil.
His body was gllstening, his tail was

hung heavy about him. He was after

fox barked off In the woods, and the
devil, hearing it,. Jumped out of thu
window and disappeared. l guess he
went after the fox"
Martin l.. Durgin, County Attorney
OF Piscataquis County, has been asked
by the non-believers II he cannot hold
Francis on the charge Of manslaughter.
but he decided that he had no grounds
for making an arrest. He believes that
the matter can be settled out OF court.
He thinks that the action OF the COM
mittee in notifying Francis to leave
town will have a wholesome effect, and
that he will disappear shortly.
The elders followers declare. on the
other hand, that they have Just begun
to fight. They go to church armed
with rifles, and say that IL there is any
rough work they will be in the fight to
stay.

now Germany succeeds In pushing
Russia into the Persian Gulf, the ad.
venture will mean quarrel with Eng
land, GOODNESS toward France and the
sacrifice Of the Slavs of Austria and
Turkey on the altar of Germany ambi-
ton. 1t will finally mean a new con.
fiagration, with Japan and England
combined, and, Germany, looking for
her own interest, at most neutral.
IT, on the contrary. a quadruple un.
derstanding could be reached between
the two dual alliances France and Rus.
STA on one side and England and ia
pan on the other, having as an object
the protection of their Asiatic, African
and Australian possessions, Russia
might easily reach her object on the
Bosphorus and support Italy and the
Slavs when the inevitable question of
the Austrian succession arises. In
this way the threatening Imperialism
OF Germany would be quenched and
the European equilibrium would be
safeguarded, a thing which Is neces-
sary for the influence with the United
States in the Pacific.
However, to be able to direct the
Russian politics to these far distant,
but natural and possible, aims 1t Is
necessary first TO clear the Russian
Foreign Office of German traditions
and personnel and have true diplo-
mats like De Witte and not clerk d.
plomatists In charge of Russia's for
elgn policy. all of which will be more
difficult than was the conclusion OF
peace with Japan.

1.-THE burning Of the battleship MI

simultaneous reports OF many heavy
guns. and others dull and muffled.
Immediately after the first Of these
great shots calm seemed to envelop
the ship. There was perfect moonlight,

land stations turned searchlights upon

contiagration, made 1t possible to wit.

Many Brave Deeds Done
When Mikasa Went Down

Mikasa settled down. Near by trans.
port, lying in anchor, said to be MI
koku Maru, was somewhat damaged by
fire, which spread out on either side
Of the battleship.
among the bodies picked up that
night were those of Lieutenant Mann
aki, three gunners, six sailors and six
engineers belonging to the Mikasa and
eight or ten men from other warships
1t is believed that as the damage can
be easily repaired the flagship will soon
be raised"
Baron Yamamoto, the Minister OF
Marine, has made the following au.
thoritative statement:
1.-THE burning of the Mikasa Is a
matter of great moment. The real
cause cannot be ascertained until the
ship is relocated. The wild rumors In
circulation that the incident was due
to discomfort in the navy with reference
TO the peace terms are as absurd AZ
they are false. Such a thing is i'm.
possible in disciplined navy.
"a conference OF naval officers as
sembled yesterday in my residence and
all agreed that an accident must have
been the cause. I have appointed a
commission to investigate the calamity
and also the conduct OF the captain and
the second in command. The findings
will be made public"
The Mikasa's guns are now being re
moved from the ship, preparatory to
raising her.
