Extra Policemen Detailed to Handle Crowds as Fame Spreads

San Juan, P. R., Aug 11.-Extra policemen have been detailed for
 duty at saA Lorenzo to help handle 1.-the crowds \drawn there from We'd nesday night to late Friday each week by the stories of apparent cures by Julita Vazquez, the "healer of San Lorenzo"
 Hundreds, is not thousands, of au- tomobiles carrying the sick, lame, and curious have been visiting San Lorenzo and 30 great have been the traffic jams that there have been complaints to the police that the San Lorenzo road was impossible On Thursday last there was a line of mo- tors two miles long on each side of the roadway waiting for people who |are rapidly wearing into a broad trail the COW path that lead up the steep )hills to the spring from which the Supposedly healing waters come Thousands Call.
 Thousands go by motor to the healer" and more thousands on foot.
 From Caguas and other nearby towns there has sprung up a regular motor service to and from the place of
 miracles" People go by truck loads They go in carriages, carts and some are carried. Stories of miracles are spread with wonderful rapidity through the crowd each day, and there are reports 0 fpeople coming from santo Domingo or the Virgin Is- lands to get the waters blessed by the healer Some make fiesta of it; others are almost reverential.
 Healing Spring There.
 The healing spring is about a mile from the town where the "healer' lives. Near the spring a palm cov- cred pavilion shelterine 400 to 500 people has been erected. There Thursdays and Fridays the healer sits in a chair on raised platform and receives the sick. Waters from the spring lack healing qualities until she has blessed or magnetized them Aft CT being blessed the water is carried away in bottles, buckets, oil cans, and thing. And each person the "healer" sees is told to bathe, rub the afflicted portion of the body with the water, or drink so much of 1t at certain times.
 Frequently the "healer" is aroused from her frances with great difficulty, Her father and a brother assist her. Her power" is supposed to have been passed on to her, while the spring waters for many years have been reputed to have healing qualities. It was about two months ago that the healer first attracted attention. Since then her fame has spread the island

The Funny Disclosure Katie Made to
 Madee.

With my hand outseretched tc knock upon Katie's door, paused and stffened in surprise at the weird sounds which came from with, in the room, A queer shuffling noise puneturea by an occasional explosive stamp was accompanied by an eerie unmuscal murmur which, after q minute Of uncertainty, l decided was made by Katie's voice. It was more reminiscent of the keenng of ha@- pipes than anything else I could call 10 mind, and for two or three sec- onds stood curiously wondering what my volatile little maid was doing
 Then, with a stressng remembrance Of my errand. I knocked peremptor- fly. The queer noises stopped instant ly but I could hear long drawn sibilant breath-Katie's invariable signal of fright.
 Katie Let me in. please I wish to speak to you" l spoke quickly in order to reassure her, but 1t was sev- eral seconds before she answered, and was as sure that she was still standing metionless and frightened as If I had the power to see through the barred door.
 "Not You Vant'"
 When at last she spoke there was | distinct tremor of alarm in her voice.
 'yot you want? Me, l feex me for my bed already. Can you no tell me troo door?"
 Katie Is never rude except when her temper runs away with her, and I knew by her infections that she was not angry. so this unusual imperti- nence puzzled and alarmed me. I spoke quickly, sternly
 This is nonsense, Katie. I have often come Into your room before. and I cannot talk to you through the door Besides if you are undressed you must dress again. I need you downstairs"
 As if she had been galvanized in- to action by my words I heard her rushing up and down the room. while there came also to my ears the tearing of cloth and the crumpling of paper Then Katie's voice sounded with fearful insistence close to the door
 'tPlees, Meesis Graham. my dear Meests Graham, you do dis for your poor Katie. Go away shoost two, tree five reenits, den coom back. I let you in"
 Her ridiculous request irritated me, but I realized the necessity of hu- moring her because of Lillian. and tried to keep any infection of an- noyance out of my voice and I an- swered her.
 Very well, Katie. T will be back in five minutes, and knock again"
 II no keep you waiting den" she promised, and I moved away from the door.
 Katie's Confession.
 I did not go so far however, but that I heard the continuation of the rushing feet, and the queer tearing and crumpling sounds.
 What was it that my little maid was hiding?

 You coom now, Meesis Graham. pees coom qveeck."
 I obeyed her injunction, but when first opened her door I did not see her. The odor of cheap, heavy per furne was in the air and underneath the bed, trailing from a huge past board box. evidently hastily pushed there, was a piece of bright purple gauge.
 Katie '' I called, hewildered and angry, and from behind the bed my little maid came slowly out. clad in 1 a hastily-pinned kimono, and with her hands over her face. I knew, 1 however, from her steady course to- ward me that she was looking through her fingers and I spoke

Justice Ford Pledges
His Support to Slnitl,
Sends Congratulations Despite
His Convention Attack; Demo-
cratic Candidates Notified

Justice John Ford, who before the
Syracuse convention attacked Alfred
E. Smith as reactionary and friend
OF the Especial interests" wrote to
the Democratic nominee for Governor
yesterday pledging him his support.
with sincere congratulations upon
your nomination for Governor, pledge
TO you and the entire Democratic
ticket my hearty and active support"
wrote Justice Ford. II have no doubt
that the convention honestly en-
deavored to place ticket in the field
which would insure the elimination Of
Millerism from the government and
substitute policies and measures look
ing to the welfare of the masses, in
stead of the aggrandizement of the
few"
The speaking tour of Governor-elect
Smith will be planned tomorrow or
Saturday. Some Of his friends want
him to begin campaigning next week,
while others are for holding off another
week.
Tonight Ex-Governor Smith and his
running mates on the ticket will be
officially notified Of their nomination
at the National Democratic Club.
