WANTS CONDEMNED MEN
TURNED OVER TO DOCTORS
T OAID SCIENCE’S RESEARCH
New York, Nov. 28—Mrs. Joste Dra
per Daniel, wife of Dr. Ferdinand E.
Daniel, of Austin, Texas, Is enthusi
astic over her husband's plan to In
oculate condemned murderers with dis
ease germs. She and her husband are
stopping at the Hotel Oerard In this
city. She aids her husband In his work
and ts a Arm believer in his theories.
"The condemned criminal Is a waste
product," said the doctor today.. “A
condemned murderer Is of no use to
society. Why not turn him over to a
regularly appointed state's physician to
inoculate for the benetlt and enlighten
ment of the human race? Inject Into
hint various disease germs, watch them
progress and when through with him,
Inject about ten grains of pruselc acid
into the veins of his arms and he will
die a painless death.
"The condemned murderer should not
be handed over to the medical men un
til he hgs been taken upon the scaf
fold or In the electric chair. When all
hope Is gone, then turn him over to the
medical men.”
Dr. Daniel has embodied his views Id
a book called "The Strange Case
Dr. Bruna," one of the .literary sensa
tions of the year. Every Incident In
this remarkable book has been taken
from cases that have happened In real
life.
Dr. Daniel has been president of the
Humane Society In Austria nnd both
he and his wife are Interested In amel
iorating tho sufferings of the people.

Chicago. 111., Nov. 28.—United Stater
Senator “Ben” Tillman, of South Car
olina, addreMHod 3,000 men and women
In Orchestra Hall last night for the
benefit of the Chicugo Union hospital.
He hold up to his audience, the spectre
of “black supremacy,” painted In terri
fying perspective. He lost hi* temper
when taunted from the galleries, ami
he “cut loose,” as he termed It.
“To h— with the law,” he yelled,
while all but a handful of his 3,000 lis
teners cheerod madly.
Riot was Imminent on several occa
sions. Hisses nnd Interruptions from
half a dozen men, black and white, In
the audience drove the senator wild.
8#nator Is Interrupted.
• “Throw him out. throw him out,”
rang,in a chorus of a thousand voices
a* the Interruptions were made.
“Shut your mouth,” yelled Mr. Till
man at one mun who asked him a
question.
One time, when describing the pure-
blooded Afro-Americans, a man near
the front said, with a laugh: "We
haven’t that kind of blacks here.”
“You haven't ?” rang out the shrill
voice of the senator. “Look down that
aisle—there's a nigger as black as the
ace of spades.”
Wanted Man Put Out.
The man pointed to by the senator
was a pronounced type of tho negro.
He was well dressed. Half of the peo
ple on tho ground floor turned .to look
ut hltn. He only smiled and sat very
quiet.
Angered at the Interruptions that
came from a negro In the gallery, the
uudletice made a demonstration. It
howled and yelled and demanded that
the disturber be put out.
Assistant 'Chief of Police Shuettler,
..ho sat on the main aisle five rows
from the stage, quickly left hls seat
and started up the aisle. By this time
tho audience was yelling so that the
speaker could not proceed. The sena
tor dropped hls hands and waited.
Motioned Chairman to 8eat.
Just then Judge Miles B. Bacon, who
presided, walked to the front of the
platform and raised hls hand, calling
for quiet, but the audience would not be
quiet. ' The demonstration had pro
ceeded fully a minute; hisses mingled
with cries of “put hltn out.”
Mr. Tillman faced Judge Bacon,
pointed hls finger ut a chair, and or
dered the chairman to sit down. Tills
act was not lost on the audience, which
broke forth in greater frenzy than be
fore.
Meantime two plain clothes police
men who sat near the offender In the
gallery rushed down the steps.
Ona Perzon “Yanked” Out.
“There he Is,” "kick him out” and
“get him, officer,” were shouted by the
men sitting near. One officer reached
over and grabbed the man by the col
lar. Ho resisted. The officer gave a
violent Jerk that landed the man out In
the aisle. Excitement was at nigh pitch
and It seemed likely that an attempt
would be made to do the offender bod-
^Judge * Bacon Ignored Mr. Tillman’s
command to alt down, and finally made
hls voice heard.
"1 hot<e," he said, "that the person*
will accord Senator Tillman that re
aped that they would be accorded were
they In Sfiuth Carolina."
Big Audience Roare.
This brought forth roar upon roar
from the audience, which would not be
quieted for some moments. When or
der was restored Mr. Tillman quickly
stirred hls • listeners to another out
break by this statement:
"I can't sec where you have been
hurt yet.” With emphasis on the
yhurt." "If you'll wait a minute, I’ll
say something that will touch the raw.
1 haven't started on this race question
yet. I'm going to start right now."
One man, and a more dangerous one
than tho iierson urrested, escaped the
clutches of the police. Ho sat In the
front row In tho gallery, when a police
man saw him. In one hand he held a
length of gas pipe and In the other a
pair of pliers.
Dangerous Man Escapes.
He was rising In hls chair when the
officer saw him. The hand that held
the pliers was raised a* If to throw In
the direction of the stake. The officer
leaped and so did the man. The latter
brushed past the officer and Jumped to
the steps that took him to the street
and safety.
Senator Tillman termed Mayor
Dunne a “political owl."
"8hul> me? A United States senator
for twelve years? A United States
senator who has dared to say what he
thinks on any and all things? This
political owl snub me?"
Hisses and Yells.
A yell broke forth that thrilled the of the halL
With the closing of the annual ses
sion of the North Oeorgla conference at
Mllledgevllle, Interest centered In tho
appointments, and the various changes
In th'e pastorates Included In the eleven
districts embraced in the conference,
Out of the twenty-six charges In the
Atlanta district only six will have new
pastors, the old pastors returning to the
other twenty. The changes affecting'
ministers and churches In the Atlanta
district are as follows:
Dr. C. E. Dowmsn, pastor of the First
Methodist, will go to the Oxford district
as presiding elder. He will he succeed
ed here by Rev. J. S. French, trans
ferred from the Holston conferenoe. Dr.
French Is a young man, but In Chatta
nooga where he served he Is very high
ly esteemed.
Rev. 8. R. Belle comes to St. Mark
from St. Johns, In Augusta. He suc
ceeds Dr. Charles O. Jones, who goes
to the First church in Rome In place
of Rev. I.uke Johnson. Dr. Belk is big
In body, big In heart and big In Chris
tian spirit. He has served In Rome,
Elberton, Gainesville and other places
during the fifteen years of hi* connec
tion with this conference, and hls con
gregations always want him sent back.
At Walker Street church Rev. W. T.
Hamby succeeds Rev. W. I> Pierce,
who goes to the First church In Mariet
ta. Mr. Hamby Is a very strong man,
and he will prove popular with hls new
charge.
St, Johns and Nellie Dodd, which
have been one charge under Rev,
Snow, has been divided Into two
charges. Rev. H. C. Christian will
serve St. Johns next year, and Rev. M.
L. Underwood, Nellie Dodd. Rev. J.
N. Snow was transferred to another
conference.
Dr. W. F. Glenn comes to this De
catur church in place of HeS. Charles
H. Branch, who will serve the War-
renton church In tho Augusta district
next year.
Rev. Ben Graham will be Bolton's
new pastor, Rev. W. T. Caldwell being
replnced by him. No other changes
were made In the twenty other churchi
In this district.
C'artersvltle was unanimously select-*
ed ns th« next meeting place for the
conference.
Rev. Dr. J. S. french, the new pax-
big audience. Hisses sounded above
the medley.
“Why," continued tho speaker, "I
haven't the honor of your mayor's ac
quaintance. I never saw him. I never
even wrote to him. I never sent any
one to see him. Wliat honor," he de
clared, "could this man In Chicago
confer-on me?”
The audience was wild. Tillman
never let hls hold on the sympathetic
listeners slip.
While discussing the fifteenth
amendment to tho constitution, which
he declared gave the negro every right
that a white man had. Senator Tillman
was Interrupted several times by one
of hls listeners, who kept asking. "How
about Kentucky?"
Tillman Loses Tsmpsr.
Finally'Mr. Tillman seemed to lose
Ills temper and exclaimed:
“Oh, shut your mouth: you don’t
know the A, B, C of this tiling. I for
got forty years ago more than you ever
knew.
"No matter what the people In the
North may say or do, the white race In
the South will never be dominated by
the negro, and t want to tell you now
that If some state should ever make an
attempt to ‘save South Carolina,' we
will show them In their fanaticism that
we will make It red before we make it
black.
Senator Blames North.
God Almighty made the Caucasian
of better clay than the Mongolian or
the African, or any other race. The
Ethiopian Is a burdcn-benrci'. H* has
done absolutely nothing for history, nor
has he ever achieved anything of great
Importance. There are not great men
among the race. Yet this |>eople has
been picked out by the fanatics of the
North and lifted up to the equality of
cltlxenshfp and to the rights of suf
frage. No doubt many of you have
listened to the oratory of the greatest
colored man of this country—Booker
Washington. He had a white father,
however, and hls brains and hls char
acter came from that father."
Senator Tillman then told hls au
dience of the attacks on white women
by negroes In the South and declared
that the people of the North were In a
great measure responsible for thls'state
of airalrs.
Guarded by Detectives.
Senator Tillman gave hls address

Cartersvillc, Ga.. Nov. 28.—News of
the political success of Dr. Francis
Bartow F'lte, now of Oklahoma, but
formerly of Cartersville, comes as grat
Ifylng Intelligence to hls many friends
and relatives In this place.
The Guthrie, (Okla.) Dally leader
•of the 2Jd Instant says: •
"A prominent delegate In the con
stltutlonal convention, In discussing
state officers, said this morning:
'The political atmosphere from n
Democratic standpoint has been cleared
very materially during the past few
days In Guthrie and nil the straws now
point to the nomination of ex-Mayor
F’rancls B. Rite, at Muskogee, to lead
the Democratic hosts as their candi
date for governor. There had been a
very decided trend to Hon. Homer B.
Spaulding, former Democratic national
committeeman for Indian Territory,
also at Muskogee, because of the fact
that as an old time cowman and a
Texas Democrat, the country all along
the Red River, Including the Kiowa,
Comanche and Greer county country
wanted him and Insisted on Ids can
didacy und he was Intensely tupular
with the Bourbon Democracy, becuuse
of hls teachings and hls Insistence on
the simon pure article three lime.*, a
day. Owing to Mr. Spaulding’s business
uffalrs. he has withdrawn from the
race and now asks Ills friends to give
their aggressive support to Dr. Fite,
und In doing this he practically gives
to Dr. Fite the nomination.’
Admires Dr. Fite.
"Discussing the situation, Mr. Spaul
ding said:
1 have known and admired Dr.
File for more than twenty years. He
Is my Ideal of a good citizen. As a
business man, as a professional man,
os a neighbor, as a good citizen and
as an official, he measures up to the
full standard and he Is my kind of a
Democrat. Dr. File Is not a politician of
the ward heeler type, hut he is a dig
nified gentleman, such as the Democ
racy of this great stato should put In
the governor's chair, and I cannot In
sist too strong »n hls nomination,

Columbia, 8. C„ Nov. 28.—Members
of the Bouth Carolina^ conference of
the Methodist church began arriving
In the city yesterday afternoon anil last
night. ' i
The first thing on the program was
the meeting of the Historical Society,
which took place at the Washington
Street church. Tills society wns or
ganized at Yorkvllle, S. C„ In 185*.
and the first lecturer was Professor
TVhlteford -Smith, known over the
.South ns an FInglisli scholar. The ob
ject of the society Is to keep alive the
spirit of -Methodism and Its memories.
Last night the annual- address was
delivered by Rev. TV. B. Duncan, who
Is the author of a book on Methodism.
Hls subject wns "Leadqi'shlp In Meth
odism." He said that the Methodist
church was the first to recognize this
government officially, Bishop Anbury
having carried a greeting and official
recognition to Washington. He dwelt
at length on pioneer work done by the
church In the early days of American
civilization. Hie address was eloquent
und heard with attention.
Conference Cbnvenss,
The conference convened regularly
this morning, with Bishop A. TV. Wil
son, of Baltimore, presiding.
The event of the conference to which
all eyes are turned Is the trial of Rev.
C. TV. Creighton, editor of The Chris
tian Appeal, for charges made by him
against preachers and presiding older*.
This cose hnd a hearing before a spe
cial committee, of which Rev. Waddj
T.Vtuncmi Is chairman. Mr. Creighton
employed a stenographer to take down
the testimony, nnd although the com
mittee objected to this, he carried hls
point over tho committee's protest.
when the roll of preachers Is called
today there will be an opportunity for
the charge to be stated against Rev.
C. TV. Creighton and the disposition of
the preachers and presiding oldors
seems to be to get this case settled ns
soon as possible. Members of the con
ference are naturally reticent In speak
ing about the case, but It Is evident that
they expect Creighton to he convicted
and dismissed from the church, for If
the charges against him are sustained
ho will not only be unfrocked, but un
churched. He has had the Methodist
church In South Curollna humming nnd
buzzing like a nest of hornets. Hls
charges In the main are to the effect
that presiding elders showed favoritism
In their appointments and that tho
ministry of the Methodist church Is
dominated by a political clique In the
matter of appointments and otherwise.
Hls paper has been red hot for sev
eral year* until the conference was
compelled to take notion.
In order for Rev. Creighton to win
out he muse prove Ids chargee against
many presiding elders and ministers.
