SPIRITUAL FOOD ONLY

PRAYERS for Mundane Menus

Atlantic City. n. j., May T.-A
hunger strike has been declared by
twenty three members of the Live and
Never Die sect who are now confined
in the city Jail as material witnesses
in the murder of Robert Diggs. whose
body was discovered in the woods near
Egg Harbor some ten days ago.
Diggs is known to have been prom
inent member of the peculiar colored
religious organization, which has
branches in Philadelphia and New
York.
During the four days that the men,
bers of the sect have been in continc.
ment they have neither touched morsel
of food or drunk drop of water, .ac-
cording to the Jail officers. Their spirits
seem to have been in no wise affected
by the lack of food. for they sing their
hymns throughout the entire day and a
greater part of the night. Sermons by
one of the elders and prayers occupy
the rest of the time. They claim that
they can never die, even though they do
not eat for months.
