VOL. XI. ■ j KILLED BY TORTURE I Woman Done to Death by Fanatical Religious Sect, IGNORANCE EXEMPLIFIED Crazy n ~ ;g Claimed That Victim V/as % ’ ' Ted of the Devil Their Treatment Unexpect- H i fly Proved Fatal. Miss lit*"so special says: Flvo pso x^jtOvf*le» members 0 £ the sect of pavi jc "“ v ltes, are under „„,. 08t u, Zion City, accused of torturing to u-nth Mrs. I.e . titla Greenhaulgh, years old, a i* . cripple for twenty yekxp, to show their I I f ' hollef In the religion »iey. profess. I f The people under arri-t are Walter SI and Jennie Greenhaulgh, he son and * - hughter of the woman; Harold Mltch ! f eii, Mrs. Harold Mitchell aid a Mrs. I Smith. All of them are accrued of I 3 manslaughter. Mrs. Greenhaulgh had been for twenty years an invalid, suffering from paralysis and rheumatism. ' .. The sect of Farhamites was found- I\j k cd about a year ago by Charles Par ham and numbers about 200 persons. I f jjf The members of the sect originally |- belonged to Louie's church B " d I)e ' lieves in the gift of tongues, and es pecially in diabolical possession. It is their theory that sickness is an evt- Jdenoe of the possession of the body by evil spirits. The condition of Mrs. Greenhaulgh \ convinced her son and daughter and the three persons arrested with them that she must be possessed of the devil \ , and they determined to exorcise the ' <VII Spirit. The five knelt by the bed tide and, after praying, commenced , their work. The arms of Mrs. Greon liaulgh, stiffened by rheumatism, were twisted about in order that the devil might be driven cut. The cries of the aged woman were considered to be those of an evil spirit and were greeted \vilh~iriumpliant shouts. After a course of this violent treatment Mrs. Greenhaulgh not only became A ’HAS*!' . not. US* her f .-..-leg any motions. Then her neck was twi3ted and for some time this treat ment was kept up. Walter Greenhaulgh testified at the coroner’s inquest that Mitchell and his wife lmd beheld a vision in which Mitchcl was ordered to quit work and devote his time in fasting out the devil from the sick Young Ureen haulgh declared that his mother’s con sent was obtained before the treat ment was commenced. I Mrs. Smith’s part in the treatment, 1| according to o*o testimony before the coroner's jury, consisted in raising Mrs. s jidcl holdi^s her while Mitchell and l.u-wife at | tempted to straighten the woman s limbs, which had been twisted by years of rheumatism. Graenhaulgh br#ke down and cried l . as he told his Mory. He d. Glared that for Sometlnn his mother Imre he treatment jhravely, but at last the f M 1 agony grew so great that she could not retrain herself and she cried, ••Oh, Lord, help me!” a number bl - times.'

People Likewise Vote for State-Wide Prohibition, Which Is a Provision of the New Constitution. The territories of Oklahoma and ledian Territory, to whom congress gave joint statehood during its last session, voted together for the first time Tuesday on the proposed state constitution, state-wide prohibition and the election of a full state ticket, ftye members of the state supreme court, all district judges, five members of congress, a state legislature, which wilt elect two United States sena tors and all county and township of ficers. As regards the constitution Itself, the voters had two eminent, although dissenting opinions, to guide them. Mr. Bryan of Nebraska says “it is the best constitution ever written.’’ Mr. Taft of Ohio says “if I were a resi deit of the new state I would vote against it” Unofficial reports from the election indicate that prohibition has carried the constitution accepted and Haskell, democrat, has been elected governor. It is not love for tii constitution that brought about if- ratit.-ation, but the desire for statehood, espec ially among the peopl" of Indian Ter ritory, who thus far have enjoyed no kind of government whatever. Many republicans, who share Mr. Taft’s views, voted to the contrary in order to get statehood, while there is an army of republicans who “hit it wit all their might,” believing they would give Mr. Roosevelt all the moral and substantial support possible in ease he should decide to withhold ids ap proval. With these republicans, too, was a strong body of democrats, liv ing mostly in Oklahoma Territory,who voted against the constitution some becauso of fear of high taxation and still others for political reasons, fear ing the Indian Territory wing of th. democracy will dominate in state at fairs. Every prohibitionist voted for the constitution. C. N. Haskell of Musko gee, the democratic nominee for gov ernor, stated often in his speeches men up loi- vote for prohibition. This era, almost to n. tomniranc' w A "I ministry. Governor Frantz, the repub lican nominee, stated publicly that 1 prohibition carried ho would see to it, if elected, that the lav was en forced. Although there were three state tick ets nominated— republican, democratic and socialist— yet practically every body on the ticket was lost sight of in the main fight between Haskell and Frantz. It has been a bitter campaign. Frantz, the present territorial govern or of Oklahoma, was a Rough Rider with Roosevelt in Cuba and represents the Roosevelt policies in his race for the state governorship. It has been a campaign of charges and counter-charges, and to substanti ate these men of national reputation have come from other states to partic ipate in the campaign. Judge Sheets, former attorney geueral of Ohio, spent a week in the state making speeches against Haskell, and, tho democrats induced Judge Monnett, who was Sheets’ predecessor in office, to answer Sheets and support Haskell. Mr. Bry an of Nebraska indorsed Haskell, as did also Champ Clark of Missouri, Jeff Davi3 of Arkansas and Congressman Hamilton of lowa. TO PAY LETTEN’S SHORTAGE.

Unless some sort of miracle is brought forth at once the inaugura tion of one of the bitterest labor strikes in the history of Louisville will materialize. The ill feeling between the street railway company and its employees, which was aggravated rather than set* tied by the strike of three months ago, will find vent in a contest which promises to be fiercer than the other one last April. QUAKE FELT IN CALIFORNIA. Seismic Disturbance Was On Heavy Order, But No Damage Done. A sharp earthquake shock was felt in Redland, Cal., at 5:45 o’clock on Thursday evening. The duration ot the loud rumble was two seconds, while that of the shake was one sec ond. No damage is reported, though the shocks were very heavy. COLQUITT. GA. WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER A 1907. BEARS IN DANGER President to Go After Bruin With I rusty Winchester. WILL HUNT IN LOUISIANA Plans Recreative Pastime, on the Side, During His Trip Down the Mis sissippi to the Waterways Convention. A special from Oyster Bay, N. Y., says: Far from the scene of official routine, and free from the details at tendant upon the responsibilities as sociated with ihe office of chief exec utive, President Roosevelt will enjoy seventeen days in camp. This is to be tho nearest approach to a genuine vacation that the i-roaldcnt h- 13 “ ,lu ' n '- ed himself. Though nominally on his vacation at Oyster Bay this summer, there have been but few hours in which official business of some sort has not intruded. A physical and mental recreation as complete as his cares will permit is now arranged. President Roosevelt will pitch his camp In the northeastern corner of Louisiana, on or about October 5. The exact spot is yet to be determined. The plans provide for a “camping trip,” but everybody knows that the canebrakes shelter game worthy of a huntsman worthy of presidential cab iber. Those who will have the good fortune to make pleasant the presi dent’s camp, expect that the monofony of camplife will be occasionally bro ken by a hunt. While the details of the trip have not been thoroughly worked out, the main features were announced Thurs day by Secretary Loeb. The president will leave Oyster Bay for Washington J next Wednesday, and on the following | Sunday will start «n his western and : southern speech-making tour. At Memphis, Team, on October 4, the speechmaking program will be In tel vupted and the president will start for the camping grounds. He? will break camp on October 21, going di* .rectly to Vicksburg, Miss., t» make his promised speech there. hi eajnp of Civil SelVtce t om- ‘ missioner John A. McTlhenny of Ibe ria, La., and of John M. Parker of New Orleans. Following the speech at Vicksburg, October 21, the president has con sented to make an address at Hermit age, Tenn., on the following day. The return to Washington will im mediately after be begun, and the white house will be reached on. the afternoon of October 23. According to a New Orleans dis patch. the region where the president will probably hunt is the Bayou Ma con and Tensas swamps, semi-tropical jungles in Madison parish, near the Mississippi river in northeast Louis iana. In these swamps bear are nu merous, deer abundant and smaller game from wildcats down to squirrels innumerable. A year ago a bunting party, head.fi by Governor Plan.hard of Louisiana, killed forty deer in this si clion. The Tensas and Macon arc the center of a hunting ground about 75 miles long and 10 to 30 miles wide. During most of the year it is necessary for hunters in these swamps to wear nets suspended from their hats in order to protect their faces from mosqquito bites. Hunters must raise these nets from their faces be fore firing. The mosquito nuisance be gins to abate in October. “BACK TO THE WOODS” Is Real Meaning of Pope's Encyclical, Says Jewish Rabbi.

He said of the pope’s interdict: -it is time, high time, that the great religious organizations should protest against such a decree —a dictum that would tend to shunt the human race one thousand years backward, and makes for the upholding of a blind faith that can never bring happiness to humanity.” He then added: “It is high time for the governments to establish more laboratories, more =chools, to add to the sum total of Human knowledge, and to spread the knowledge of truth among the people. appeal for aid issued.

NEAR HALF BILLION i Profits of Standard Oil Trust in Period of 7 Years. i WEALTH MOST AMAZING The Company Comptroller is Forced to Let Cat Out of the Bag at Gruel ing Hearing Held in New York. A New York special says: Delving into the financial workings ■ Standmd' Uil company or New Jer sey, the holding company of ail the subsidiary organizations of the so called oil trust, Frank B. Kellogg, con ducting the federal suit for the dis solution of the company, brought forth Tuesday to pubiie view for the first ■ time the enormous profits made by the Standard Oil company. In a period of eight years, from 1899 to 1906, ip , clusivo, the Standard Oil com,,an. a state’ll- - t spread upon tin record of Tuesday’s hearings, was shown to have earned the total profits of $490,- 315,934, or at the rate of more than $01,000,000 a year, and distributed to its shareholders in the same period $308,359,403. While the company was earning these vast sums in the refining of oil the statements adduced at tho hearing show that between 1899 and 1906 the assets of the company grew by leaps and bounds from $200,791,523 to $371,- 064.531. The capital stock is $95,338,- 253. Finanni -rs and those suukins knowledge of vJ*e exact profits of the Standard Oil company have striven vainly to obtain the figures Mr. Kel logg succeeded in placing upon the records of the court. The Standard Oil company makes no statement of its business, and other than tho dec laration of a dividend it makes no public announcement by which It* business may be gauged. Mr. Keftogg obtained a statement | showing that the St; . dard Oil com pany of New Jersey controlled by • stock ownership over seventy com- ! panies engaged in the refining and the '•smspoi'tatrtm by pipe line of oil on ot ’ls h MuA&£---1I 1 amount of its shareholdings. The list showed’ that the »: .audard Oil com pany of Now J oy owned $999,000 of total capita! - -ek of $-1.000,000 of Standard OF unpany oi Indiana, which we ontly fined 420,240,000 by Judge Its, in th • United States circuit - in Chicago, for rebat ing. Mr. logg’s efforts at the hear ing ’ htaiu information of the ree ord the liquidating trust, which I ha narge of the liquidation of th« St,, darti Oil trust and the exchange | of the liquidating trust /certificates j for the shares of the Standard Oil I company of New Jersey, were not 1 rewarded. CD vies M.

The Indians company in 1906 earned more than au.- subsidiary company of the big const-: In 1903 rhe Indiana compan, * v its were $8,853,410, so that in two j years the mother trust received from ! the Indiana company more than $lB,- I 000.000 in profits. The Standard Oil company of New Jersey owns 9,990 shares of the In diana company’s stock. The Indiana compnn.v is capitalized for $1,000,000. The dividends paid by the Standard Oil company of Indiana last year aggre- | gated $4,485,500, or a little more than j $6,000,000 less than the profits. Mr. Kellogg developed during the day, while Clarence G. Fay, assistant comptroller of the Standard Oi! com- pany, was on the stand, a curious pro cess of the financial bookkeeping, or ■ handling of accounts, which Air. Fay failed to explain. From figures sub mitted it was shown that the Standard Oil company of New York, in 1904, made a profit of $7,751,160, and paid in dividends to the Standard Oil com pany of New Jersey tho total sum ot $32,998,430.
