KILLED GIRL At
HEAVENLY COMMAND
So Says Bachman, a Member
Of the "DeviI Chasers"
Society.
MOTHER REALIZES CRIME.
SHE Is HEART BROKEN AND
WALLS OVER FATE OF HER
OFFSPRING DEED DONE TO
ATONE FOR ADAMS SIN.

Easton, Pa, April 30 Coroner
feth croft at Nazareth has begun All in
nuest into the death of Irene May
Smith, the five-year-old daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Smith, of Alliance,
who was offered as a sacrifice by her
parents and uncle, members of the ia
matte religious sect whose actions have
Startled the community The Smiths
and Bachman, who is an uncle Of the
child, and who killed her during his
frenzy, are in the county Jail. Bach
man insists that the child was pos
sessed of devil. and that he killed her
BY command from Heaven. He main
iains that he did no wrong, and that
God would protect him. He cries out
from his cell that he is to be crucified
and pleads with the jailer to hurry the
execution that he may appear before
hhe throne of God, who sent him to
earth TO perform great mission for
the salvation of mankind.
Smith is in a pitiable condition both
mentally and physically. Today he
was seized with several fits and rolled
from his cot to the floor. where he
tossed about, shouting and praying. He
appears to know little or nothing OF
the killing of his daughter, and when
the subject is preached to him he in
sists that nothing wrong has happened
and that his brOther-in-laW was direct
Cd by the holy spirit.
Mrs. Smith, on the other hand is rac
tional and realizes the awful gravity OF
the situation. She is heartbroken and
walls piteously over the tragic fate OF
her child. She declares the religion
she and her husband adopted is a myth
and that they were not acting by direc
son of God She never had much
faith in the teachings of the sect. but
soined them in order to keep peace il
the family. Her husband. she says
was good and kind to her, but when
she objected to the new religion he
would become furious. When she
went to Nazareth last Saturday to at
tend the meeting that ended in the
imurder of her daughter she says she
had no idea of the Intentions of the
party to kill her child. During the
progress Of the maniacal sessions she

Vaudeville at the Phillips.


One of the interesting pieces Of

in which they have preserved their
press notices taken from papers in all
parts of the world. They have many

sing, dance. play musical instruments
and give slight of hand performance,
II is doubtless true that the boxing
match between the two princes is the
chief point of interest. They go at it
in a lively manner and use consider

To do the right thing, at the right
time, in the right way. is a good bust
ness creed; and one we'll worth fol

has been taken TO heart by the Gentry
Brothers, who fully realize that in
these days of competition, nothing
short of the best is good enough for
the amusing loving public. To carry
out this idea they have endeayored
this year to so increase the various
features of their combined shows that
they are in position to state that in
their own particular class of entertain
ment they are without a rival In Or
der 10 gain this position they have
put forward every endeavOr TO obtain
the best acts suitable for an attraction
OF this kind, with the result. that their
agents have searched the priucipal
metropolitan CenterS of Europe in
their anxiety to give the patrons of
the Gentry organization the most up-
to-date acts now before the public.
