ATTACKED THE SAINTS.

V A Mob of tnraged North Carolinlams At'
tempt to Drive Ont the Sanctified Band.
A specia ,rora Suffolk to the Nor-

.. Ona of the most violent and belli-'-
cose demonstrations of an enraged
populace seen in Eastern : North
. ': . Carolina within a generation occur
red this morning from 12 to 3 o'clock
on the Chowan river, near Montrose.
-s forty miles from Suffolk.! It was a
r 'terrific attack from land of a mob of
about 150 people,' heavily armed,
.upon a crowd of heretics -styled
; :, -"The Sanctified Band," situated in
boats about fifty yards' from; the
v shore: . One woman was killed, and
1 it is1 thought that several men were
wounded. ,
. - TheSjmctified Band had been lo-
cated at Montrose for several weeks,
and members have been conducting
:'. meetings throughout the surround
ing country for many miles The
result was that their religion
was getting a tremendous following,
- hundreds of men and women, mostly
the fornjer,"; renouncing their al
legiance to other, churches and ac-
pting the doctrine of the sanctified
people, v Besides a large, number of
persons who had never been allied
.." jvith any church, were readily con
verted and almost before the dea-
' cons and elders of . the community
; had realized the extent of their fas
ti cinating influence the congregations
-i which had been regularly attending
. the old houses of worship had been
; disintegrated and disrupted. It is
; also claimed that the moral effect of
r the band was of a most baleful char
acter. ' The charm exerted by the
heretics and some of their followers
became so attractive that parents
i feared for their sons and daughters.
' These are someofthecauseswhich
.originated a feeling of repulsion
, afhong.the natives which, was grad
ually fanned into a contempt and
loathing that cultimated this morn
ing in a a ferocious attempt to ban
ish the band from the confines of
the county The conflict is described
by a disinterested eye-witness, who
was ' safely sheltered behind the
trees out of the-bullets' reach, to be
one of the most awe-inspiring spec
tacle he evar witnessed. The men
i composing the mob were fired with
an enthusiasm and determination in-
spired by the apprehension that
their homes and domestic happiness
were in -danger of being usurped.
a:.: Tbf) attack was made at midnight
The sanctified people, who are said
to number 103, had been warned by
,Jfconrerta, and had moved their

the stream that they might be less
- exposed to intrusion. The crowd of
, enraged citizens came with a rush,
land when their commander called
for a halt at the river bank, there
J( was an ominous rattling of guns,
' rifles, - pistols, bowie-knives and
.-swords. As volley after volley was
j. poured into the river craft the bul
; lets could be heard cVashing into the
- arks' sides. .The inhabitants disap
? ; peared from view, and it is supposed
'that they got below the ' water line,
s or more would have been killed. '' f. ,
, After a time a committee of citizens
started out to propose terms to the
; band, but they were ordered back by
those on the arks, who, however,
. are said pot to have fired a shot. The
. committee's return was a signal for
? another fusilade. The firing con-
tinuod till about 2 a. m , when the
: ammunition was about exhausted,
h; and the mob dispersed ' to their
. homes. - . ..:. '-
' it is claimed that some of the lead-
ing citizens and a part of the officers
h in the county "sympathize with the
-. men who resorted .to the unlawful
- use of arms J force,; fronr the com-
, f munity a clasffof people Whom the;
considered- deleterious to its interest.'-
As the last gun was . fired
. curses and threats against further
occupany rent the' air. If they do
not -Teave as ordered It is thought
. that another- attack from enraged
; husbands and fathers will follow
V.- i Sadie Collins and a man . named
Lynch are said to lead the band.
They preach holiness and santifica-
tion. , '

ECONOMY
May be noeesnary in many ways
when dollars are scarce and wants
many, but it in not desirable to practice
it in the .purchase of food, which is
life. Below a certain standard food
imperfectly nourishes; up to that stand
ard it costs a reasonable price. We
never want more than a reasonable
price for our Groceries.
RAPID SALES
Give our customers the benefit of
