The .'voodoo" doctor said he eff
fected cures of illness by the use of
roots and herbs and explained his
queer plan to restore health. He said
one plan was to give the ailing per-
son a piece of paper upon which was
written rs letters in five lines. He
explained that if the patient tore or
one letter, rolled lit into a pill and
swallowed 1t every time the patient
felt bad" he would be cured at once

statement made by Clementine.
Clementine warned the officers that
the killings would continue as long
as members of her church kept
faith in their "condjah" bags, which
are supposed to guard them from
persecution"
Members of the cult claim a per-

IDEAL TRAINING CAMP
Managers Of Big League Teams
Differ on Question.
Some Like Outlet Places Where There
Is Little to Divert Attention Of
Players From Their Work.
Others Favor Big Cities.

What constitutes an ideal training
camp for big league baseball teams
Big league managers and players diff
Ter In their opinions. Some like the
quiet places, where there is nothing
to take the thoughts of the players off
their work. Others like the big towns,
where there are advertisements to
break the monotony of training Some
also prefer the big towns because
more money Is taken in at the gate.
Some managers like to change every
year, SO their players will get change
OF scene. Many prefer a spot where
the athletes may imbibe freely of
mineral waters.
In the latter class are the managers
OF at least f1ve-Fred Clarke of Pitts

New York have picked Hot Springs,
while the Giants have trained at Mar.
lin, Texas, for several seasons. The
fact that the Giants and Pirates have
been contenders for the pennant all
the time they have trained at health
resorts speaks we'll for their system.
The Boston and Chicago Americans
are the two clubs that have made cir.

the Red Sox twice went to California
Neither team obtained good results.
In the opinion of Nap Lajoie, q
training camp combining the good
qualities of Alexandria, La, and Ma
con, Ga, would be the ideal place
Alexandria has the climate, the water
and the hotel, but it lacks population
and a good baseball diamond. The
latter fault could be rectified, however
by the sending of groundkeepe1
ahead OF the team to get things in
shape. But the town is small and
lacks amusements. Consequently the
players got mighty tired of it in a
week or so, and their work seemed
unusually onerous, especially as Man
