Duxbury, Mass. April 15.-Follow-
ious frenzy drove them to the weird
est exhibitions of fervor in display
ing their perfect readiness for the ex-
pected end OF the world. more than
400 Holy Rollers are today physically
in q state of collapse. In an all night
session scores OF women from 20 to
20 years Of age danced over the chapel
floor until they dropped in exhaustion
on the floor.
There Is no let up to the demon
stration by the immersionists most Of
whom are now preparing for the ex-
pected coming Of the Lord on June 81.
Giving Property Away.
With dishevelled hair and out
stretched arms hundreds OF them are
cavorting over the chapel floor. sing
ing, shouting and crying that they
are anxious to give UP ELL their chat
tells and worldly possessions SO they
can meet their maker with peace in
their hearts.
Today another round of religious
arder began. Considering the fact
that the Holy Rollers are allowed by
their tenets to eat but twice a day
It 10 remarkable how they keep up
under the strain. Breakfast at
O'Clock this morning was shy meal,
the. food that had been ordered by
trolley express from Brocktons having
'miscarried in the night on the road
to Plymouth. The free Christians had
little to eat save bread and butter
and the hot water prescribed by their
deligion while milk was given to the
babies In the camp.

END OYSTER SEASON

The fish market is in waiting atti-
tude and little change is noted by deal
ers, except the gradual disappearance
of oysters from the market. Some
houses are still receiving small ship
ments, but the demand has fallen so
low that there is no active market.
Blue Points have been sold for the last
time this season by fish dealers. The
oyster season usually closes by the
middle of April, but this year it is like
", according to dealers, that they may
be obtained as late as the last OF next
week
Fresh fish are coming into the local
market In good quantities. SOME fro
zen fish are still sold. Fishermen re-
port trouble on Lake Erie with high
winds, and as consequence white fish
have been little scarcer. The price
remains the same, however. Game Is
still moving. but in limited quantities
and at the same prices.
