Carroll is chief owner and director. Visibly shaken and hardly able to walk, the witness was assisted from the courtroom. by the court stenographer and one of the State attorneys. Lam- beth, lawyer and former State Senator in the Virginia Legislature, was testify- h\\lfingnrdlng alleged indignities he had suffered ‘while a patient at the institu- tion because of a nervous breakdown. Suddenly beginning to twist his body in the witness chair, he partly arose and, shaking, requested that the court allow him to retire and rest for a few min- utes. He nearly fell when he was leav- ing the rostrum on which the chair is located and was caught on both arms by the stenographer and attorney. When he returned -a few minutes later he was entirely composed and the cross-examination continued. Despite his nervous condition, the witness an- swered all questions shot at him and at times arose from his chair to hurl an- swers at the defense attorney, Junius Martin of Asheville, who was conduct- ing the cross-examination. { At one time, while describing indig- nities he said he was forced to undergo at the institution, the witness stood up and, shaking his fist in the direction of Dr. Carroll, shouted that the treatment accorded him “was a brutal, damnable m to allow,” and that Dr. Carroll id be “run out of the State of Noxth Carolina.” WO00DS LURE HUNTERS IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY Many From Washington Join in Pursuit of Game—Rockville 0f- fices and Business Suspend.

I, November 29.—Fear of ‘three black-robed, headless sisters, who, superstition says, spread death in Manila and environs, has caused thou- sands of Filivinos to mark the front doors of their homes with white crosses. | §; P ‘The story of the headless sisters, who are called the Tatlong Marias, or Three Marys, began to circulate a few weeks ago. It spread rapidly, and fully 75 per cent of the homes were marke with crosses. Those who marked their doors said that the sisters made nightly calls, and that the person who answered their knock at the door was stricken with a fatal illness. But if a white cross were upon the door there was no visitation. Most of the crosses were drawn with white chalk, but some were painted and a few made with: flowers. The story of the three sisters curbed neighborly visits in-the evening. More ‘gerious was & superstition dis- closed “it .a recent Philippine con- stabulary report from Davao, Island of ‘Mindanao. A’ Chinese store owner and three other persons were killed by Atas, in mountain tribe, to comply with lief that a wife must be buried with the hands of four murdered per- sons in order to enter Paradise. At first it was thought that robbery d | was the motive for the crime, but the superstition was established as the cause when: it was learned that the hands .of all the victims had been severed,” and that a few days earlier the wifées of @& tribesman had -been burfed without the hands supposed to be necessary for her entrance into Heaven. ‘Two Ata tribesmen fuspected of being the slayers fled to the mountains.
