THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAXD, 31 ARCH 1, 190S. 0 QUACK BILKS MANY American Swindler Operates Throughout All Europe. . REMEDIES FOR EVERY ILL Continent Found to Be Rich for Circe n Goods by William Scott, Wlio . Is Arrested In City of Berlin. BERLIN. Feb. 89. (Special.) In the person of William S.cott. an American, who was arrested this week in his sumptuously-furnished flat in the suburb of Schmargendorf. the Berlin police believe they have captured the guiding spirit of a collossal swindle which has spread its ramihcutlons as far as the German . colonies. About three years ago credu lous people who wished to dip into the future further than the human eye could see were invited by advertisements in the press to communicate with "Pro ffssor Maxim,'- at an address given in xndon. lii reply to their letters they received an intimation that for the sum of $1.5 tliey could become members of the "Maxim Alliance," and that this would further entitle them to practice necromancy with fha "Maxim plan chettc," for which an additional sum of 2.,r0 was demanded. The accompanying testimonials, appeal ing to that weakness which most rapidly deprives the confiding sex of its powers of judgment, set forth how "planchette" had answered in the affirmative the question of a lady member of the al liance who had wished to know whether she could still count on the affections of a gentleman friend, and how she had a few. days later received from him an of fer -of marriage, which had since been fulfilled. Another rather Ingeniously imagined achievement of the apparatus consisted in advising a builder what figure he should tender for a large con tract at Munich. Hut "Professor Maxim's" "planchette" was only one branch of the business. "Doctor Keith Harvey" had a specific for deafness. "Doctor Rice" an infallible cure for rupture. "Mr. Smith" a charm against rheumatism, while "Mr. Dana" could afford complete relief from short ness of breath and "Professor IJnd" cover the baldest crown with a luxuriant growth of hair. Then there were prep arations for fatness, thinness, and. in fact, all tlie shortcomings which are the favorite hunting-ground of the quack. At first Scott seems to have used his various London addresses merely for the purpose of collecting orders, which were returned to Berlin to be executed. Lat terly, however, he appears to have traded openly here. He disseminated a scurrilous paper. printed in German, Kngllsh and Russian, In which the magic properties of his preparations wero laud ed, and so enormous did his business be come that from his central office packets to the nominal value of between 11500 and JlDOO were despatched dally. Subse ouimt to his arrest searches were under taken In five different places, and a quantity . of quack remedies Impounded which filled a large room In the criminal i-outta. Tens of thousands of people are understood to have fallen into his traps and It Is said that his booty ran into hundreds of thousands of dollars. DISCUSS CHILD TRAINING Jroiulnpnt Speakers Address Par ents' and Teachers' Moeting. II. W. Stone, general secretary of the Y. M. C. A., addressed the parents' and teachers' meeting held Friday night Is tlin Mount Tabor Methodist Church under the auspices of the Mount Tabor Home Training Circle. Mr. Stone pointed out the opportunities for at tainment of boys between 15 and 18, and declared that under proper guidance they will carry out schemes that would overwhelm strong men, add ing as a reason that selfishness was a small factor in the boy's life as it is not in a man's. He then thinks less of self, Mr. Stone said, and his am tittions lead him out above and beyond what would seem to others insur mountable barriers. Mrs. Frank C. Kelsey supplemented iter reading of several poems by a forcible talk upon developing certain phases of genius in the child, em phasizing the need of cultivating the best and highest instincts, fostering the poetry in the child's soul. and recognising the natural tendency to things divine. Dr. Osnion Royal, who spoke on "Nervousness." gave some startling figures as to t lie amount of eleep chil dren should have at various ages. Ac cording to his, Mows the hours for work or tuuy that are demanded of a large majority of children arc far longer than their mental or physical strength can bear. The nerve-racking strain attending school examinations is also a serious menace to the child, he paid. "Nervousness as a weakness," declared Dr. Royal. "In the mother unfile her to govern the child, who naturally receives and records tlie same affliction. " Mrs. U H. Tate in her remarks out lined the work of the Homo Training Association, She said that the welfare of the child was being considered and studied in all parts of the country, re sulting in better hours and a better understanding between home and the school through parents realizing the treat opportunities t..cy might open up in educational life of their chil dren. Miss Mina Graves gave an organ solo, and Mrs. K. W. Wheeler a vocal solo. Mrs. It. H. Tate presided. ROOSEVELT AND BRYAN Arguments to Show That Bryan Ought to Declare for nooaevelt a tho lH-nnK-ratie Candidate. Thi singular but highly interesting- ar gument for Roosevelt as Democratic can didate for the Presidency Is presented by the" New York World, a Democratic paper which approves neither Bryan nor Hosevelt. but wishes to chastise the former over the shoulders of the latter: Mr. Bryan frankly confesses that be Is Uapin his campaign to "secure th sup pi.rt oZ R- osevelt Republican!"," Ha absolves Mr. Kooseveit from blame for th recent panic. Ha prints Mr. Roosevelt's recent nifrtaxe in lha Com moner under th militant headline "The President's Call to Arms." His sDeech at Cal u mlui on February 3 S dfnd r. Host-ve It. and says: "My criticism would l that he did not commence sous enough to norm the fort." Mr. iiryan's followers are no less delight ed than ho with Mr. Honsc velt's policies and rhetoric. Ex-Governor Vardaman of Mississippi siys of tha menage: In many riect It la Democratic doctrine tMkn hot aft the hearta and out of tha patriotic, rrvenant. pulsating brains of tlia rami Ucmocrauc .cadets oX America." la an outburst of hill-billy enthusiasm Senator Jeff Davis calls it "the best -Democratic doctrine that ever came from- a. Republi can President." In a letter to the World. Representative Lamar. of Florida. de scribes Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Bryan as man whom the people believe "sincere in desiring a reform in business and com mercial life." If the Democratic party is to be an an nex to the RooKorelt Administration, if the Democratic &lafform is to be an affirma tion of the Roosevelt policies, if the Roose velt messages are to be acclaimed by Mr. Bryan and hi friend as erenuine Dcmo crtic doctrine, and if Mr. Bryan is to con trol the Democratic National Convention, then why la not Theodore Roosevelt the logical Democratic candidate for President' He possesses tremendous advantages over Mr. Bryan. He can be elected. He has proved that he can poll 23.0O0 more votes In Mr. Bryan's own state than Mr. Bryan ever soiled. Mr. Roosevelt can carry braka. which Mr. Bryan cannot do. Mr. Roosevelt has shown that he can carry every PoduUsUc state for which Bryanism sacrificed the Democratic party. He can carry Maryland something Mr. Bryan can not do. He can. carry Kentucky. H can carry Missouri. He can carry Republican states in which Mr. Bryan would not stand the choat of a chance of success. If the principles of the Democratic party are to be bartered for Roosevelt Republi can votes, then nominate a man who can unquestionably get those Rcnubllcan votes. If fhe historic nollcies of the Democratic party are to be subordinated to Mr. Roose velt's popularity, tttke the man who can deliver the popularity. Why In such cir citrrustances should a Democratic. Conven tion nominate an imitation like William Jennlng Bryan when it can nominate tM real thing in Theodore Roosevelt? "Why take a broken reed when it can lean on the Bis: Stick? If Mr. Bryan Is sincere In his admiration for Mr. Roosevelt's policies. If he believes that those policies ought to be continued by the Government, he should go to Den ver and demand Mr. Roosevelt's nomina tion. He has tho power, and he surely does not bald a third defeat for himself DEATH OF MRS. DELIA LAUGHLIN SMITH At the home of her daughter. I ' f " t"" ; :j Mr. Delia Lauehlln Smith. and three brothers, William Laughlin and Lee Laughlin, of Norm Yamhill, and Samuel Laughlin, of Mitchell, Or. Funeral services were1 held at North Yamhill from the Methodist Church. Mrs. Smith met every duty and performed it cheerfully and well. She leaves a host of friends, who will remember her for her kind deeds. above the principles which he professes to consider vital .to the welfare of the Re public. Should the Democratic party support Mr. Kuosevelt? If Mr. Bryan is right, by ill mparts. Why not? DIES DAY AFTER WEDDING Bride Proves to Bo In Advanced Stage of Vhthibit. LONDON, Feb. 23. A pathetic story of a 19-year-old bride who died withlu 24 hours of her marriage, ,lCiraes from Grimsby. The girl s name was Amelia Olive Peachman and her husband is Walter Robert Peachman. The ceremony took place at the parish church, and on the following morning the young girl died in a paroxysm of cough ing. At the request of the coroner, a doc tor made a poftt-mortem examination and found death wholly due to phthisis, the consumption bning In a most advanced stage. The girl, said the doctor, wad utterly unfit to marry. The girl's mother had no hostility to ward the courtship, but was unaware of tlie wedding when it took place. A verdict of death trorn natural causes was re turned at the Inquest -on the girl's body. The Current Craze. lone Proclaimer. Every so often the people at large have a craze and the one at present in Oregon la Statement No. 1. The reactions follow ing these crazes have always left de vastation in their trail. It Is sad that men can be so deceived in their Immed iate neighbors that they cannot send from among them a man to the legisla ture, ono who will be honey t to their best interests, and If tho people at large throughout the state cannot select ju diciously from among those men they Intimately know, how can they expect to judga as to the honor, intelligence and moral worth of a man for United States Senator, when one elm nee In many they will never see the man they are voting for. This paper is craving no benefits politically nor currying no favor, but wo taka a frreat Interest in the upbuild ing of Oregon and deem the risk of ex-" periment too. great, consequently we are in favor of the repeal of Statement No. L This In Just the Fact. Pendleton Tribune. While discussing Statement No. 1 an exchange points to the great Lincoln Douglas debate in 1S58 as an instance where "the great Emancipator abided by the popular vote an,d graciously gave way to Douglas." But the truth in that in that famous contest Unco In himself car ried the State of Illinois by a majority of more than tfW over Dougles but the Legislature was Democratic by eight votes on joint ballot and Douglas was elected In spite of the adverse vote given him by the people. Lincoln himself never for a moment thought of claiming the Senatorship on account of having the popular vote, though. In reality, the peo ple preferred him to Douglas. This is the historical fact.
