TOBACCO TAKES
PLACE OF PUNCH
WITNESS SAYS
Brawlers Who Disturb Silence
of Slaughter House Are
Fined in City Court

That Louis Kandowski, butcher at
81 Burroughs street, placed tobacco
beneath his eye lid to give his fea-
lures the appearance of having been
pumme1led when he and Louis Ortin,
a butcher at 25 Hallam street, were
arrested for fighting at the public
slaughter house in Asylum street was
the testimony of Orlin's uncle, who
claimed to have witnessed the trick
KandOwskfs right eye was terribly
swollen. but not at all discolored when
he appeared in the city court today.
On his arrival the optic was conceal
ed beneath a bandage, but just before
he was called to the stand to testify
he removed the cloth to display the
badly swollen eye. He denied the
tobacco story and said the swelling
came from a well directed punch de-
livered by Orlin.
The two quarrel1ed over possession
of a quantity of tripe. Superintend-
ent Spitz arrested both, charging them
with using abusive language and with
assaulting one another. Orlin's broth
er was arrested a few weeks ago for
a similar upheaval at the slaughter
house. Each was fined Sill and costs.

PART OF SATAN
ENTERED OYSTERS
That's Why Voliva's Followers
Mean to Drive Out of Zion
Wicked Who Sell Succulent
BivalveS
Especial from United Press.)


Zion City, Ills. March THE fight Of
devil out of their midst and to re-
deem the perfect city of Prophet
Elijah John Alexander Dowie and
Wilbur Glenn Voliva, from the Gin
fields who are in league with Satan
and the cohorts of HE'LL today, took
on form of "whitecapping" in Ken
lucky. By threatening letters liber-
ally quoting the Scripture and invok-
ing the word of God to show that
"the wicked flee and the righteous
pursue the followers of Dowie and
Voliva have warned the Independents
to get out.
The first of the threatening letters
was received by Frank Newell, the
one armed dealer who was seriously
beaten after he was suspected of bar
tering in unholy pork and ungodly
but very lucious oysters.
This letter, which was signed by
lone of the committee, warned New
ell to leave the city. He was told
that s'the righteous would allow no
one to remain in the city who violat-
ed the laws of God and man. by
commercially trading in pork, oysters,
cigars, cigarettes and liquors which
bring iniquity and sickness upon the
children of God"
God" the letter declares, "cast the
devil into pork but some part of Sa-
tan went; down into the sea and en-
tered oysters. Therefore we shall
drive out the wicked who sell them.''
Newell was not disposed to treat
the letter lightly "Those fanatics are
worked up to a fever PITCH" he said.
"Now that Voliva and the old Dowie
regime has regained control, I know
they mean to use force and blood
shed, if necessary, for they believe
they would commit no sin if they slew
"a man who sold pork, oysters or Gig
arettes.
But he added naively, 81 have
bought revolver and one of the I'M
righteous is going to shoot daylights
out of some Of the righteous if they
tackle me again.
