A Natural Result.

II is very reasonable to suppose II
the foundation OF a structure was
removed that the building itself Is
bound to come down. This same prin-
oiple can be applied to disease. Take
medicine into the system that will re-
move the cause OF sickness, and ILL
ness will leave Itself. Dyspepsia, in
digestion, sick headache and bilious
ness have their foundation In stomach
disorders. Remove this weakness
and the other symptoms are no more.
There is one cure for all this that all
druggists sell for 25c per box, Il is
DR.. Gums Improved Liver Pills,
They get right at the beginning Of
these diseases and make the cure by
taking away the cause.

The Interpreter Arrives.
G. w. Solkeld. who is the official
interpreter of the unknown tongues
and who is relied on to translate the
marvellous writings of Mr.. Ryan and
the little Hanson girl, hit the scene
of action late Saturday night. When
he made his advent into the city di-
rect from Los Angeles, he came from
the train direct to the mission. Sis
ter Wiley was chanting one of the
weird songs of her own make and all
the faithful crowded around Brother
Solkeld and then he made a short
and snappy speech in which the name
"Solkeld" appeared in every two or
three words.
1t is not believed that he and
Brother Ryan will last long in meet
ing unless they build stage with
two centers.
The Interpretation of the writings
of the Holy Ghost as they have been
transcribed are looked forward to
with much interest.

HEALED
BLIND
WOMAN
"T0nguerS" Also Claimed to
Have Cured Mr.. Smith of
Cancer

Healing the blind and curing men
OF cancers are only ordinary little
stunts at the Pentecostal mission,
where the "Tonguers" hold their
nightly orgies and claim to get pow
err from the Holy Ghost to speak in
foreign languages and to write mes
sages in unknown tongues.
They claim they will soon have
power to raise the dead and no
doubt they will try to perform this
miracle and are only waiting for an
appropriate corpse to show up.
Saturday night Mrs. c. w. Irwin,
OF Dallas, during one of the most
strenuous periods OF the meeting.
while Sister Wiley, the yellow girl
from Los Angeles, was chanting a
weird hymn of her own manufacture,
arose from her seat and said her
eyes were in a horrible fix, that they
panied her fearfully and she was al
most blind and that she wanted to
DO healed.
"Heal me now. heal me now!" she
shrieked, as she fell PROSTATE at the
dals. Mr.. Ryan was at that time do
ing n stunt in Sanscrlt stenography
for the Holy Spirit and he remained
oblivious TO Mr.. Twins suffering and
kept pegging away at his HERO
glyphics. Mary Hanson, the little
girl medium. was seated at the OPP
posite end OF the platform and her
spasmodic jerks with the divine pen
ell grew all the more rapid. She was
taking down hymn in Hebrew.
When Mrs. Irwin got down at the
altar. Sister Glasco, the big Portland
aegress; Brother Williams, the young
goft-spoken evangelist from Califor-
aia; Sister Wiley. the star singer,
and Sister Crawford. from Los An
geles, crowded around ana laid their

The senior class of the Salem high

society rooms of the high last even

tree was beautifully decorated with
ropes of tinsel. candles and popcorn

Albany, Or. Dec. 24,-L. b.
Wickersham has filed in the Linn
county records Office notice of ap-
propriation OF 10000 miners in
ches OF water from the North Santiam
river at Niagara, where the river is
the dividing line between Linn and
Marion counties. In his notice
Wiekershaw states the purpose to be

factories and various kinds of indus
tries.
The water is appropriated from

Cured of Cancer.

one of the most marvellous cures on
record.

Cured of Cancer.
They assert that Mr.. Smith was af-
hicted Of a cancer that was pro-
nounced incurable by the physicians
and that he had the Saints" as they
term themselves, pray over him, lay
hands on his head and appoint him
with oil and that almost in the
twinkling of an eye the cancer dried
up and fell out of his face, leaving
only hole in his countenance.
1t is not known If any reputable
physician has vouched for this. but
the truthful status of this so-called
cure may easily be- obtained.
Mrs. Crawford claims that she has
the power to swallow any kind of
poison without injury to herself and
that when any one has been bap-
tised with the Holy Ghost and with
fire, poisons will have no effect on
them and that they may be raised
from the dead.
IL would create no surprise II
some of the more deluded OF the fol-
lowers should attempt to try the ex-
pertinent. There can be little doubt
that some of them have been worked
up to the pitch that they could easily
be Induced to take poison or do any
thing else they are told to do by the
leaders.
The little Hanson girl, who Is more
completely under the domination of
the leaders than any of the others,
said I'm a public talk Saturday night,
that she expected this would cost
her life. but she was willing to sac
rlfice It. She does three and four
hour tasks at rapid writing in un-
known characters and during all this
time her right hand is going at the
most rapid motion possible. All the
while she seems to bein a trance, her
eyes wild and lusterless and her face
Redeemed with an unnatural flush
and her nerves completely unstrung.
All the girls who have succumbed
to the faith are the adolescent age,
Just the time they are more easily
moved and influenced by any kind of
erotic religion.
A Fantastic Exhortcr.
The most fantastic and grotesque
OF all the participators is Sister
Glasco, the tall and huge colored
lady from the South Portland mis-
sion. AS she gets properly warmed
up to her work, she occupies the en-
tire front of the house and walks rap
idly back and forth from one end OF
the stage to the other.
Her language is very uncouth and
her metaphors are sometimes badly
mixed. In common with the rest of
the more ignorant of the workers,
Mrs. Glasco seems To have Il I'm for
anything pertaining to education or
culture. She says she never studied
Latin or Greek and boasts that she
never went to school day In her
life. which Is self-eyident. yet she
says she Is as well educated as any
bondy.

He had not the price of ticket to

for this noon. Having poured his

another on the campus of the Univers-

rade.
The East Side will be in gala dress
G.. A. R. week. Both Central avenue
and Fourteenth avenue Sc will be
Tired with flags and bunting, while the
majority of private residences will be
decorated. Days before any decoration
was evident on the West Side, of the
river, the St. Anthony Commercial club
hung out it's huge flag on Central av-
enue and this may be taken as sign
of the general energy and preparedness
of the citizens of East Minneapolis.
During the past week committee of
East Side business men have been
their part of the city. At noon today a
total of $500 had been received.
Such preparations mean that the East
Side will take a prominent part in the
G.. A. R. ceremonies and it is hoped by
the committee in charge that the resi-
| dents will turn out in force to enjoy
the concerts. The bands are visiting

Work Soon.
Rrv Dir C W Rowley, pastor of the
Methodist church left Tuesday to
attend the annual meeting Of the Troy
conference now in session at Saratoga
The yeag Just closed is one of the most
successful in the history Of the church.
In his report to be rendered to the con
ference, DR. Rowley will show that
during the year 40 persons have united
with the church. five have been dis
missed by letter and three by death.
The present membership is 4Os.
The Sunday School has been pros
porous and now numbers over 400 A
system of finance has been adopted
which provides for oil the expenses of
the church without that dreaded thing,
a deficiency.
Tine greatest achievement of the year
is the raising of sufficient funds to
warrant the remodeling OF the old
church making practically new edi.
flee of the same. The sum Of So, 00C
has been pledged and work will be
begun as soon as possible. The cost
will doubtless exceed the first plan but
that does not dampen the ardor OF the
pastor or congregation. The yen
closes with a united church aud the
prospects very bright for the future,
The church and people OF Benning
ton most earnestly hope the pastor
may get the rest much needed, at the
conference and expect his certain
return to them by the conference Mr..
Rowley will join her husband at Sara
toga Friday. There will be no preaci
ing in the Methodist church Sunday.
