Under this new law we have pro-

complaint about high prices, but l don't
think they have been SO high as to
cause suffering. Our opponents have
been attempting to charge high prices to

have been in those industries with re-

lowered or altogether removed.
To put the blame on the poor old tar

view the proposed legislation he had rec

carry out the Roosevelt policies He

ator AldricI. seated at his left, President
Taft again tonight earnestly defended
the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill in his ad-
dress at the annual dinner of the New
England Manufacturing jewelers. and
sflyersmiths' association. Mr.. Taft re-
celved a most enthusiastic greeting. The
President also expressed the hope to-
night that 1t would not be necessary to
apply the maximum tariff rates against
Canada, thus bearing out the reports of
the Albany conference of yesterday that
the negotiations with the dominion gov

turn.

QUITMAN COUNTY BOYS INVENT.
BOyett Brothers. Motor. Pillow May
Revoluti0nizc Farming.

Mr.. Van BOyett of Morris Station,
Ca, was in the city last week. and
had with him a picture Of a motor
pillow, the invention of himself and
his brother Eugene BOyett.
These young men have entered
field Of invention that is practically
uneXplOred, and the necessity great
er than in any other department of
scientific farming. While in the
western states the steam pillow has
been used with great success it is
wholly inadequate for the cultiva-
ton Of the sOuth's main crop
cotton. This motor pillow should fill
long felt want in the south. In
fact, we cannot imagine the great
revolution that will follow in it's
wake The inventors have estimat-
ed that the labor now being used
can perfOm five times as much
work with this pillow as is now be-
ing done with livestock.
The first of these plows was built
last month in the Machine shop at
Eufaula, Ala. and many expert ma
chinists there were impressed by its
simplicity and practicability. It
does not REQUIRE a great deal of
power and the cost of operation is
not as much as the keep of the av-
erage horse.-Ft. Gaines Sentinel

THE SECT'S WEIRD CEREMONIES

Vivid Description of Their Form OF
Alteration and the Awful Creed tC
Which Their BIaCk-robed POstu'

ing Their Odious Cult.
NEW YORK.-For centuries in
the past there is known to have eX-
listed a cult of "Santanists'' or "Dia-
bolists worshipers of evil or SatanI
In Paris, Berlin, London and doubt

strange sect IS known in the old

was their headquarters until Mont

out St. Pierre and its %, 900 souls

it is claimed, with considerable de-
tail, that the cult has invaded the
city of New York, American asylum
for so many Of the world brain
busted theorists. Quite naturally
their coming was not proclaimed by
any red fire paTades, though this
would seem in perfect keeping with
their form Of worship. There re-
mains, however, the statement that
the devil Worshipers are in New York
and propagating their OdiOus form
of sO-cOlled religion. However much
one may be inclined to disbeIieve the
story the explanation Of their I'M
canny rites has a weird fascination
for the reader
Services" they call their regular
meetings much as though referring
TO the ceremony in some church
There is q great difference. how
ever, for in their case everything is
shrOuded in the deepest veil of mys-
terry and secrecy. The meetings are
held late at night and under the
guise of secret frateTnal order To
all outward appearances they are
members of some vague brother
hood not unlike hundreds of other
organizations in that great city. In
fact, they sometimes call themselves
The Hermetic Brotherhood Of Chal-
dea, which means nothing at all
Followers of Lucifer.
In reality. by this group Lucifer
is hailed as the incarnation of all
that is worth while. To blaspheme
God and religion is their delight
their form of worship being simply
an absence travesty of the sacred
ritual of the church The sacrifice
of a child was part of the blasphem-
Gus rites of the devil worshipers in
the past, when Satanism was quite
common in Europe and especially in
France. This was changed later on
to the slaughter of a dove or
lamb, but even this is not part of the
services today.
At present its devotees practice
the black mass or mess nOire,"
just as it was fOrmely practiced in
France, but in a milder degree. 1t is
a revelation of the depths to which
blasphemy can sink, even in such an
enlightened country as the United
States. It is enough to make any
one who believes in God and relig-
ion to wonder if such things can
exist.
