WITNESS TESTIFIES
IN TONGUES OF FIRE
Member of Apostolic Faith
Surprises Court.
JUDGE THROWS SUJT OUT
Opinions Expressed I'rom Bench
TUat Both Tartlcs to Divorce
Application ' Are Unworthy.
Graphic demonBtratior. the re
ligious fervor aroused in the minds
of the disciples of the Apostolic Faith
mission was given in Circuit Judge
Gatens' court yesterday morning
when A. E. Davidson, in testifying for
Mrs. Hattle - Michael in her divorce
suit against B. F. Michael, suddenly
broke away from his line of even
voiced testimony and began talking
rapidly and excitedly in an unknown
tongue.
The witness spoke loudly and
wildly in what he described as the
tongues of fire: a language which
comes "unbidden" to the lips of the
true believers In that particular sect.
Court Stenographer Van Horn
gasped when the witness began sud
denly to shout a jumble of words
that none could understand. The court
advised the stenographer not to at
tempt to take down the fervid but
unintelligible sermon.
Case Ik Thrown Oat of Coart.
Despite the impromptu tongues of
fire Judge Gatens threw the case out
of court because of what he char
acterized as the gross immorality of
both the man and the "voman.
"This court has consistently re
fused to wash the dirty linn of any
family, and I will not hear any other
witnesses in this case."
The husband sought the divorce de
cree on charges of infidelity a-nd on
the further grounds that the Apos
tolic Faith mission had alienated the
affections of Mrs. Michael from him.
Mrs. Michael in her complaint alleged
cruelty.
"If this woman has reformed and is
now leading a new life, I am glad of
it," said Judge Gatens, "but her own
testimony In this courtroom this
morning shows she is, so weak men
tally or is so immoral that she is not
entitled to any relief. And the hus
band likewise has shown that he is
no better, if not worse, than his wife."
Ilunhand Denies Compulsion.
The husband denied that he had
compelled any improper conduct on
the part of his wife. He admitted he
had never taken any decisive action
to protect his home, but said he had
refrained for the sake of his chil
dren. "Any real man would have taken
the other fellow by the neck and
broken it." said Judge Gatens.
ANTIHON-PflBTISAN TALKS
OUCHARD1STS OF CXYJDE ARE
WARNED- BY ARTHUR FOSTER,
Rancher of South Dakota Declares
Alertness Necessary to Detect
Machinations of Workers.
HOOD RIVER, Or., March 31.
(Special.) Arthur Foster, rancher of
Clyde, N. D., in an address to or
chardists in Pine Grove Grange hall
yesterday, warned them to bo on the
alert for representatives of the Non
Partisan league. Mr. Foster, who
gave data on results of the Non
partisan regime in North Dakota,
based on personal observation, de
ciared that solicitors for the organ
ization progressed through, districts
semt-secretly.
" They never -begin their campaigns
of publicity," said Mr. Foster, "until
they have made their canvasses and
have secured the $18 dues of mem
bers. When they get the money they
soon begin to boast of their success.
Just keep your money in your pocket
and the Non-Partisan league will
cease its solicitude."
Mr. Foster delivered his address
nnder auspices of the Hood River
County Taxpayers' league, an affilia
tion of the State Taxpayers' league
organized to combat the Non-Partisan
league n& its Oregon alliance, the
united land and labor party.
Mr. Foster declares that the coun
try at large had heard much of the
state bank of North Dakota. He cited,
however, regulations that prohibited
any examination of it, so that all the
general public may know of the
bank's condition must be accepted
from statements of the director-gen
eral.
