CURIOUS
CREDITED TO CHRIST

Country papers throughout
the Southwest are printing, usu
ally at the request of subscrib-
ers, what p1rports to be a letter
written by Christ. This is a re-
Vival of a-well, fad" of fifteen
years ago. In this letter was an
injunction that It be published"
to the world by whoever found
t, together with the statement
that misfortune and bad luck
would follow the person having
possession of it in the event that
it was not given publicity.
There is likewise a promise
that whoever may have a copy Of
this letter in his or her posses
sion will prosper and be followed
by good fortune. The PROMISE
and the prediction seem to have
had such effect on so many per-
sons that the spread Of this letter
bids fair to equal that of the
famous "chain prayer" which
swept over this country and Eng.
land a few years ago.
According to the story, or
legend, the original letter was
found some tune in the early
days of Christianity by a child.
Here is the letter, or command,
as it appears in the publications:
"Whosoever works on the Sab.
bath day shall be cursed. ICON.

keep holy the Lords Day with

the story goes, the family suf

misfortunes. Discouraged mem
bers had migrated to countries
other than in which the person
who had gotten the letter from the
child had lived-Palestine, evi
dently-and at last one of them
came to America, bringing the
fateful letter with him.
Mrs. Fannie Workman of Mari
on, Ind, is more or less familiar
with the history of the letter
since it came to America. The
family having possession of it
settled in Virginia, still keeping
the fact of the letter a secret. 1t
seems that descendants of the
Virginia family moved farther

tune, and finally the last mem

death bed.
One story is to the effect that
with the death of this daughter

so many centuries disregarded
the injunction of the letter, and
with such dire results, was ex.

this is Mrs. Wortman's under.

deathbed called in a neighbor
woman by the name of Thomp-
son and turned the letter over to
her, relating it's history as it had
come down through a thousand
years or more.
Impressed by the story she
had heard from the lips of the
dying girl and by the text Of the
letter, the Thompson woman i'm.
mediately began an attempt to
have it published, and it appeared
in the Rome (Ga.) Tribune, Octo-

reprinted in the Dalton (Ga.)
Citizen, and Mrs. Workman, now
at Marion, Ind, clipped it
and retained it in her possession
for many years.
Recently Mrs. Workman had it
republished in a Marion paper,
stating at the time that during
the time she had retained the
letter in her possession without
having it published or attempt.

bad luck which she attributes to

TITANIC MIGHT
HAVE BEEN SAVED
FRANK E. KIRBY.
Detroit Vesselman Says Proper
Handling Might Have Kept
Huge Ship Afloat
FRANK n. kirby.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. June 30
Two years after the loss OF the giant
ship Titanic. and the death OF more
than 1900 lives, the discovery has
been made by Frank Il. Kirby, the
Detroit vessel designer. that the open
ing OF the water compartments in
the stern of the Inflated liner, follow
ing the accident, would have made II
possible to have kept her aAoat for
many hours. and, perhaps indefinitely.
The Detroit man, who has won an
international reputation in vessel de
signing, is now in Washington, ana
in talk this morning with Judge
Alexander, chairman OF the commit
tee on merchant marine and fisheries,
explained how the Titanic could have
been kept afloat and perhaps saved.
IL viii be remembered that the big
liner received a bad underwater blow
near the bow, and Immediately began
20 sink bow first Ii compartments
in the stern had been opened Mr..
Kirby explained. today, il is prob
able that the boat could. perhaps, have
been saved, or at least leveled SO
that 1t would have taken many hours
70 sink, permitting use OF all the
pumps and ample time TO take of all
passengers.
Judge Alexander considers the re-
suits OF Mr., Kirby's study of the
greatest Importance.
