ROBBERS GAG VICTIM AND
BURN FEET WITH MATCHES
Masked Highwaymen FiendishIy Tor.
ture Farmer In Ohio and Force
Him to Open Safe Con-
tanning $3.50

TOLEDO, Ohio, Dec. 25-Masked
robbers early today compelled H. A.
Shadow of Curtice. Ohio, to open a
safe in his farmhouse and turn over
$780, After tying their victim to his
bed and placing a gag in his mouth the
robbers stole a horse and buggy and
escaped.
While one of the robbers tortured
Shadow by burning his feet with
matches the other kept him covered
with a revolver. Shadow is agent for
an insurance company.
The Toledo police are searching this
city and the surrounding country for
the two robbers. The first of the Sha-
bow family knew of the robbery was
when the children rushed to their fa-
theirs room to wish him a merry
Christmas.
He was not there, and on entering a
little front room used as an office they
found him on the floor, unconscious,
with his hands and feet tied and a
woolen mitten stuffed in his mouth.
On regaining consciousness Mr.. Sha-
bow said that, hearing a noise in the
office, he went to Investigate and was
attacked by two masked men, who de-
manded money. He refused to open
the safe, whereupon they bound and
gagged him, then applied lighted
matches to his feet.
He endured this torture for while,
but finally gave in and opened the safe
and then fell unconscious.

was we'll planned and as well carried
out.
1t was about 1870 o'clock when the
first knot of eager children arrived,
and by / o'clock, the time scheduled
for dinner, the squad of ten patrolmen
under Sergt. Butler had all they could
do to keep the children in hand, so
anxiously did they endeavor to break
through the lines. From this hour
until o'clock the volunteer women on
the roof were kept busy serving, and
in addition to the children fed there
were several INDECENT men and women
who also were allowed to partake of
the dinner.
Baskets for Needy
In addition to those who were served
at the Y. M. G.. A. building scores of
baskets We're filled to the brim with
turkey and the other good things and
taken in as many directions to poor
persons who were unable to be pres
ent. After the dinner was over bas-
lSets were also prepared and sent to
the following places:
Door of Hope. food for forty persons.
Olive branch mission, food for fifty
families.
City JAIL food for one hundred and
sixty men.
Chain gang, stockade, one hundred
and sixty men.
Miss Whites children's home, forty
children.
Sergeant Butler and his squad of ten
patrolmen made hit with the women
on account of the kind and gentle man.

children even the larger boys, who, in
their eagerness, pushed forward at
times, when restraint was necessary.
One picture which will long cling to
the memories of those who witnessed
It was Patrolman McGann, the largest
and best natured patrolman on the
force with a wee child who had be-
come momentarily separated from its

golden hair dried her tears and clung
to the big officers neck as he carried
her around in search of her mother.
Half a thousand persons rejoiced at
the sight of the reunion. Where the
patrolmen showed their most human
side was when the presents were being
distributed in Simpson auditorium.
Big, strapping patrolmen held aloft
little tots and pleaded in most persua-
sive tones for zone doll for this little
girl;" "Just a toy and some candy for
this little rooster" Don't crowd there,
boys; here's plenty of books, games and
candy"
Before they knew it every officer in
the S0udu was II sQlSlIlDullil5 NOlllliAA-

pended on the children getting dolls,
toys and candy.
One of the special acts of considera-
ton which was an important factor in
making the dinner a success is the
open-hearted maner in which the Y
NJ. c. A. management, and especially
Arthur Let's of the Broadway Depart
ment Store, extended the use of the
Y. M C. A. building in all its de-
partments to the event. This splendid
Institution went ever farther, and fur
nished approximately one hundred
members to serve as ushers.
One of the most touching incidents
of the occasion was when "Old Glory
was broken out from the Flagstaff on
the cupola of the Y. M. C. A. building,
AS the adults arose as by one consent
and enthusiastically saluted the Stars
and Stripes, the children, many of
whom could not speak English, caught
the spirit and cheered their patriotic
approval.

REMARKABLE SUCCESS,
TEACHERS VERDICT
Says Her Pupils Never Have Shown
Such Keen Appreciation as at
Christmas Treat Given
by Herald

"I want to say this to The Herald:
have seen a great many entertain
ments given to children, and yet l Go
believe that this has been the most
remarkable success of anything that
L have ever witnessed in all my years
of teaching. For nine years / have
taught among these very children that
are here today. Many of their parents
believe that 1 belong to their race be-
cause 1 can speak to them in Spanish.
So | know what they are thinking of
and what they think of this entertain
ment today [ have never seen such
appreciation among them, and, as I
have sat in the auditorium this after
noon and heard their conversation and
their heartfelt gratitude 1 believe that
what you have done today will do more
to wipe away MISUNDERSTANDING and
to avoid labor troubles in the future
than anything that could have been
done.
"You have taught these children to-
day that you really love them. They
have seen from your actions and the
tone of your voices that you feel kindly
toward them and that you want to be
good to them. l do not believe that
the good that has been done to these
hundreds of children and their parents
can even be guessed at, much less COM
puted."
Statement made by May e. Wright,
teacher in the Fourteenth street
school, who was instrumental in induc-
ing many of the poor children under
her charge to attend yesterdays Herald

RUSSIAN FOREIGN MINISTER
APPROVES U. S.-JAPAN PACT
Romanoff State Department Presents
Annual Statement of Its Policy
to Duma-Is FavorabIy
Received

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 25.-For-
eign Minister Isweisky met with q
favorable reception in the duma today
when he presented the annual state
ment of Russia's foreign policy. He
referred, with warm approval, to the
Japanese-American agreement, which,
he said, guarante q the open door
policy in the far east and the integ-
rity of China, and the terms of which
had been communicated to Russia be-
fore 1t was signed.
The rest of M. Iswolsky's speech was
on general lines, repeating the views
expounded in the Russian dumas note
of December 23. 1t shed no light on
mooted questions, nor gave any sub
stance of the Russian proposals re-
garding the annexation of Bosnia and
Herzegovina by Austria.
M. Iswolsky confessed that Russia
could not have raised her individual
protest against the annexation of Bos-
mia and Herzegovina by Austria Hun
gary, because her hand was bound by
the previous Austro-R Russian agree
ment. Before, the only way open was
for the concert of powers and other
signatories to hold Austria fast by an
arbitrary amendment to the Berlin
treaty
NJ. Pkrovsky, Social Democratic
member, made a speech devoted to the
relation of an alleged Russian plot in
Bulgaria during the reign of Prince
Alexander and during the early years
of the reign of Prince Ferdinand, in
tending to show that Russia distribute
ed bombs, firearms and other ammuni-
ton for political assassins.

AWAIT RESURRECTION Of
NOTED RELIGIOUS LEADER
Californian Who Founded "Sun Flat
Heaven" in Chicago Is Dead in
Southern FIorida-Career
Varied

CHICAGO. Dec. 25.-Cyrus r. Teedr
Korresh 1, self styled messiah" OF the
notorious sun Flat Heaven" in Nor
NAL Park in 1892, is dead in the midst
of his colony in extreme southern
Florida.
His followers. devoutly believing in
his Immortality, awaited his resurrec-
tion today
The body of the leader, who so mar
rowly escaped lynching at the hands
of Chicago men who uncovered his
methods of conducting heaven" lies
unattended, while Victoria Gratia, his
wife. has assumed the throne with
medieval solemnity and has issued an
edict that the body of the leader shall
not be buried until there has been a
manifestation of divine will.
The Korreshan colony which Mas
ter Teed originated had it's foundation
in California, whittier he drifted after
he had become more or less saturated
with the methods of Schweinfurth OF
Rockford fame.
His recruits came so easily on the
Pacific coast that within the first year
he had broadened his operations, by
tracts and publications, to localities
scattered all over the country, and In
the spring of 1892 the Teed heaven
became one of the notorious spots IN
Chicago. Here he centered his actlV-
tiles.
Believers f1ocked in from all sec
tions of the country and followed inn
plicitly the spirit orders OF the self
styled messiah. There were men "an-
gels" and women angels" all of whom
lived together.
Current report had it that one batch
of twenty-five young women angels
from California arrived one morning,
carUiGac which
marked their advent to the "heaven"
consumed three DAYS.

time at least all are Californians, and
they so expressed themselves.
Rev. Edwin r. Brown, assistant pas

the women in welcoming a hundred
little chaps and lassies to the Para
chute corner and said grace for them.
