FEELING IS STRONG
IN BELLS CASE

KIEFF, Russia, oct. 9.-Anti-Jew-
ish feeling, which threatened to get
beyond control of the military author
ities, followed the reading of the in
dictment Of the ritual murder case of
Mendal Bellies. a Jewish workman who
is charged with numbering a 13-year-
old boy as a human sacrifice during a
religious celebration.
High feeling was aroused by the
details as set forth by the attorneys
for the prosecution. Following an un-
successful effort of the defense TO Sc
cure a delay, counsel for the defense
presented it's case. That the lawyers
representing Bells intend making a
vigorous effort to prevent a verdict
of guilty is shown by the immense
number of witnesses summoned. In
all 21S persons are under subpoena
for both sides.
Enormous crowds besieged the
court house but the COssacks on
guard allowed only those bearing off,
cial passes to enter. The judy con-
sists principally Of peasants and small
trades people. One doctor is on the
list whom the defense tried to have
excluded on the ground that he has
too much education.

Declaration of Principles.

E1E, the members of the Sove-
reign Castle of the National
V Order knights of Luther, in
the national meeting assem-
bled, believing that the time has ar
rived in the history of this nation
when it is necessary to organize, Sc
cretly or otherwise, to foster and
protect those principles which vouch-
safe free institutions in a free re-
public; and believing unalterably
that the perpetuity of this republic
and the peace and welfare of the
people depend upon free speech,
free press, freedom of worship, the
perpetuatiOn of the American public
school system as at present cOnsti-
tuted and the complete and unQuali-
fed separation of Church and State,
do declare and set forth the follow
ing to be our
Declaration of Principles.
That we are in favor of complete
and absolute separation of Church
and State.
That We are in favor of free speech
and free press in the generally &C
cepted meaning of the term, and es-
pecially as it is interpreted in the
first amendment to the Constitution
of the United States
That we believe inviOlably in the
principle that every man, woman and
child should be allowed to worship
God according to the dictates of his
conscience, and that this right should
not be intefered with in any de-
gree.
That we hold the public free
school system as at present consti-
tuted to be the bulwark of the re-
public, that it should remain non
sectarian in every sense of the word
and that no CARDS or distinctive Sec
tartan characteristics should ever be
tolerated therein.
That we are opposed to the grant
ing of lands, money or any other
thing of value to any ecclesiastical
institution whatsoever by the govern
ment of this nation or of the several
States of the nation, and that we are
in favor of the taxation of all church
property held in trust or used for
speculative purposes.
That we oppose the election or ap-
pointment of any person to any office
of public trust within this govern
ment who owes allegiance to any for
eign power, prince or potentate, and
that we are in favor of legislation
providing punishment for those who
persecute or boycott on religious
grounds.

Jorie Brown, who had come from
New York to be a brides maid at
the wedding of the son of a United
States Senator in Atlanta, after
which she will hasten to Washing

daughter of the President. Mar
Jorie Brown formerly lived in At
lanta and has often visited her
cousins in Marietta. She resembles
Miss Eloise Brown and is a slender.
graceful blonde, with the counte-
nance that so easily blossoms into
smiles above a merry heat. At
lanta society is said to be quiet elated
over the fact that one of it's buds is
to appear in the bouquet of bridal at
tendants at this White House we'd
ding, but Miss Marjorie Brown is
not greatly excited over the matter
She has visited the Presidents fam
lily in the White House, and having
been always accustomed to the best
society, she will feel quite at ease
even in the assemblage of personages
at this interesting wedding. The
four brides maids will wear creme de
chine frocks of Nell rose tints, trim
med with silver threaded lace. and
carry bouquets of pink roses, tied
with ribbons 20 match.
The orange blossoms to be wor,.
by Miss Jessie Wilson will go from
green huose in Columbia, S. c.,
which city is the home of the Pres
ident's Aunt Felia, for whose hus-
band, DR.. Woodrow, he was named.
This aunt was visiting her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Clarke, in Greensboro.
N. C., when the President went to
Mobile. He had the train stopped
long enough for this dear old lady to
meet the distinguished man, whom
he still lovingly calls "Woodie."

Bessie Baker, live in Marietta.
