CARISTUANITY NOT WELCOME IN INDIA Hindus Strong in Own Faith, Boer War Veteran Says Great Britain with its Christian religion of only 1,900 years will never be able to impose its religious beliefs on the Hindu whose religious beliet and customs go back 3,500 years, according to Dr. John (L. Baker of Springfield, a veteran of the Boer war in South Africa. Dr, Baker told of the experiences of a number of years in the British army. He described his travels around the world, from the kissing of the Blarney atone at Blarney cas- tle in Ireland, to the scenes of fight- ing on the Veldt. He spoke for some time of condi- tions in India, denouncing in em- phatic terms a book by Katherine Mayo purporting to tell of the Hindu religion. He said an attempt on the part of Christian nations to force their religion of 1,900 years upon the Hindus with their religion of 3,500 years would create a holo- caust on the world. He character- ized Nancy Ann Miller as “a crasy girl who wanted to marry a Hindu." Speaking of the Hindus he said he had secen natives line up in groups while priests burned holes in their tongues with red hot_iron; he has seen men who held their hands clasped so long that the nails grew into the palms and has seen the Ganges river so0 choked with the bodies of fanatics that they were wedged tight between the banks, He described the sphinx and the pyramids of Egypt and concluded by tclling of some of the incidents of the war in the country of Oom Paul Kruger.
