THE SEVENTH AMENDMENT.

The seventh amendment which
some ofour Democratic friends are
worried over, and which in their dis
eased mental condition they think is
full of imaginary snakes, was drafted
by the Democrats of Philadelphia
and Allegheny counties for the rea-
son that they found that so large was
the Republican majorities in these
localities that the Democrats were
unable to get any representation on
the election boards as in many in
stances Republicans controlling the
Democratic primaries and placing
whom they pleased on the Democratic
ticket as candidates for Judge and
Inspector of election. They expected
the Legislature would arrange that
in cases of this kind the Judge of
District Court could be empowered
to select inspectors of elections from
names recommended by the county
committees of the two leading politi-
cal parties.

At least such was the story that
spread. Others came to the healer.
Diseases that had bafied the physi-
clans appeared to depart under the
touch of the strange person. Peo-
pie from distant points began COM
ing to him, and all departed with
the same result.
Schlatter finally started for Albu-
querque and when he reached there
Up to that time most of his patients
had been Mexicans, but now Ameri-
cans came His fame ultimately
was spread by telegraph and he went
to Denver. There Schlatter began
fast that lasted forty days. All
the while he continued to heal.
Persons of all classes gathered in
such numbers that the healer was
unable to accommodate them in his
house and they passed before him, as
he stood on the porch.
He would lean over and take the
hand of the patient, while he prayed
with each one. He also blessed
handkerchiefs, caps and other arti-
cles to be used as instruments of
healing.
People literally came by the thou
sands.
He refused to take money and
gave credit for his work to THE
Father"
1T is not who does it," said he.
Later Schlatter was credited with
having claimed to be the reincarna-
tion of Jesus Christ. He travelled
in various parts of the country.
pursuing his healing wherever he
went. Ultimately Schlatter disap-
peared and for several years was
lost to public view. He was report
ed to have perished in Mexican
desert while his friends declared
he had gone to ranch for rest.
In the summer of 1902 Schlatter
reappeared in Chicago, after having
lived in seclusion for five years. He
declined to say where he had been,
merely stating he thought it better,
in view of the many false prophets
who had arisen, that he disappear
for time.

also in a healthy condition. He is
serving his sixth year as pastor.
The first Honesdale class is claim
ed to have been started in 1925 by
Rev. Sophronius Stocking in con-
nection with the Bethany Methodist
society Of the Genesee conference
and stood in that relation until 1841
when the conference meeting at
Owego, N. Y. recognized Honesdale
as a separate station and assigned
Rev. p. G. White to the pastorage.
From 1925 to 1841 inclusive, a new
pastor was assigned every year to
the local church.
Sundays services was the first in
commemoration of the seventy-fifth
anniversary of the laying of the cor
ner stone of the First Methodist

Death Of Remarkable Man.

Charles M. Schlatter, famous a
few years ago as a "healer" who
claimed to cure i'll by divine power
was found dead in a room at a
local hotel at Hastings, Neb., one
day last week. Doctors say he died
of old age. He was widely known.
Francis Schlatter, as he was
known in the Central West, made
his first appearance as healer
among the Mexicans of New Mexico
in July, 1895.
A Mexican girl, crippled, deform-
ed and sickly, had been put aside
by her family. To the mother of the
girl came a strange man with a
spreading beard, long hair and
kindly eyes. He offered to cure the
child and the next day the child was

M. E. CHURCH 75 YEARS OLD.
The First Church Edifice Was Erect
ed by the MethOdists.

Last Sunday, the oath, the Meth
odist church of this place celebrated
and on next Sunday will continue
to celebrate the seventy-fifth an
niversary of its organization. 1t
was formed prior to 1884, but there
are no records previous to that date.
An early day Circuit rider planted
the seed of Methodism here. The
first church edifice erected in Homes
dale was built by the Methodists in
1884 on the lot near where the first
locomotive, the Stourbrige Lion,
turned wheel on the American
continent. The lot was donated by
John Torrey. In 1845, owing to a
rapid increase of population, the
church was enlarged. The town
grew and the membership of the Me-
thodist church grew proortionately
until it was apparent that a new To-
cation must be secured and a new
edifice of worship built. The site of
the present handsome brick church
was purchased and the building
erected at a cost of $4,000. The
enterprise was inaugurated by Rev.
j. o. Woodruff and completed by
Rev. H. M. Crydenwise in 1873.
Rev. Mr.. Crydenwise was in Homes
dale last Sunday and occupied the
pulpit both morning and evening.
For number of years after the
completion of the building the So
ciety struggled with a heavy debt
made more troublesome by the
stringency of the times during the
seventies. The first of the obliga.
tion was wiped out during the ad'
ministration of Rev. H. G. McDer'
mott. The church membership, un'
