Schlatter, famous a few years ago as a "healer" who claimed to cure 111 by divine power was found dead in a room at a local hotel at Hastings, Neb., one day last week. Doctors say he died of old age. He was widely known. Francis Schlatter, as he was known In the Central West, made his first appearance as a healer among the Mexicans of New Mexico in July, 1895. A Mexican girl, crippled, deform ed and sickly, had been put aside by her family. To the mother of the girl came a strange man with a spreading beard, long hair and kindly eyes. He offered to cure the child and the next day the child was walking, upright, cured of her atV flictlon: ; i At least such was the story that spread. Others came to the healer. Diseases that had baffled tho physi cians appeared to depart under the touch of the strange person. Pco- pie from dlBtant points began com- lng to him, and all departed with the same result. Schlatter finally started for Albu querque and when he reached there he found his fame had preceded him. Up to that time most of his patients had been Mexicans, hut now Ameri cans came. His fame ultimately was, spread by telegraph and he went to Denver. There Schlatter began a fast that lasted forty days. All the while he continued to heal. Persons of nil classes gathered in such numbers that the healer was unable to accommodate them In his house and they passed before him, as he stood on the porch. He would lean over and take tho hand of the patient, while he prayed with each one. He also blessed handkerchiefs, caps and other arti cles to be used as instruments of healing. People literally came by the thou sands. He refused to take money and gavo credit for his work to " The Father.' "It is not I who does it," said he. Later Schlatter was credited with having claimed to be the reincarna tion of Jesus Christ. He traveled In various parts of the country, pursuing his healing wherever he went. Ultimately Schlatter disap peared and' for several years was lost to public view. He was report ed to have perished in a Mexican desert while his friends declared he had gone to a ranch for rest. In the summer of 1902 Schlatter reappeared In Chicago, after having lived in seclusion for five years. He declined to say where he had been, merely stating he thought It better, In view of the many false prophets who had arisen, that he disappear for a time.
