Three damage suits have been fill
ed for the April term of the city

weeks from next Monday.
One of them has been brought by

injuries alleged to have been sus-
tanned last February while the
plaintiff was a passenger on the ac-
commodation freight and passenger
train. He charges that while sitting
in the coach some freight boxes were
kicked against it with such force as
to throw him out of his seat onto the
floor with such force as to bruise and
inJure his body and permanently i'm
pair one of his ears, the hearing of
which is entirely gone.
Henry Thomas, colored, has sued
the Central railroad for $3.50.
Thomas fell off the platform of
passenger train from Montgomery as
1t was nearing the station in Dawson
on Dec. oath last, and alleges that
he was bruised and hurt in a manner
that has injured him for life.
c. W. Curry has entered suit
against the Central for $3.50 for
damages to piano that was shipped

HOG CHOLERA IN THE COUNTY.
Is killing Swine in Large Numbers
in Some Sections.

Hog cholera has made it's appear
ance in the county, and is doing
great destruction on some farms, es-
pecially in the Fourth district.
Those who have hogs to die with
the disease should not take them to
the boneyard for the buzzards, as
by that means it is communicated
to other hogs and caused to spread
more rapidly.
AS a matter Of protection to other
hogs in a community where cholera
has appeared all hogs that die should
either be burned or buried deep in
the earth.

INVESTIGATING "BLACI
The federal government has
taken up the case of CDR" Lauron
w. de Laurence, head of the
/ Black Rose and White Willow
cults.
The police raided de Laurence's
temple" at 1910 Michigan ave
nue. yesterday after the story told
by Mrs. Augusta Muerie, who
escaped from the temple"
De Laurence, his wife and a
gang of negroes, Indians and
white women were arrested.
Thech diety of the temple
was found to be regular cigar
store Indian, before which de
Laurence worshipped and forced
his followers tosworship.
The story told by Mrs. Muerie
was to the effect that de Laurence
forced his white women followers
to undress and weigh in" when
entering the cult before himself
and bodyguard of negroes.
Mrs. Muerie also said that
fagellation was practiced in the
temple.
After the police raid it was dis
covered that the government
had been on de Laurence's trail
for some time.
Evidence now in the hands of
the government tends to show
that de Laurence sent improper

literature and forbidden medicine
through the mails.
1t has also been ascertained
that almost all of de Laurence's
male followers were either ne
groes or Indians, while his female
followers were white women:
There were two circles in the
cult-the Black Rose and the
White Willow. Only the adj
vanced members of the cult were
admitted to the Black Rose, the
second brother" of which was a
negro preacher.
De Laurence is a little man,
weighing about Us pounds. He
is not attractive in appearance.
Apparently, however, he ruled
his Michigan avenue temple"
with an iron hand. It is even said
that the Black Rose members
were forced to swear that they
would commit murder if he or
dered them to,
De Laurence swore today that
no immoralities were practiced in
the fashionable temple" and de-
MED that any of the activities of
the cult were illegal.
The police case against de
Laurence probably will be al
lowed to rest until the federal
grand jury has had a chance to
indict him.
