CHRISTIAN SCIENCE AND SCIENTISTS EXPLAINED BY LEAMWED LECTURER (Continued from Page Three.) to $ frow1lng world that would Uber ate .. world from its seeming self and null it free from its seeming self and make It free, indeed? There is more true leve and unselfish devotion to the canse of humanity made manifest in . woman of the twentieth cen t y Baker G. Eddy, than has b dpayed ince the time of Him wp stood up in the faoe of mortal nj and said to it, "Ye are of the fatr, the devil, and the lusts of the fjater ye will do. He was a murderer fif# the beginning and abode not in the truth, for there was no truth in hbti When he speaketh a lie he spa th of his own, for he is a liar and'b ae father of It." And Ratherham, in lI)l version of thoe ew Testament, rend.r.,'th* last claule In this text, "for A Its be is and the father of it." Christian Science is the same straight and narrow way today as when the Mas. ter taught it nineteen hundred years ago on the shores of Galilee. And any deviation from it in the letter or in t~ spirit is not science and is not true. Christian Science is as radical as the science of numbers, and one can no more deviate from its principles and rules and still call that deviation Christi Science than he could de viate thq rules and principles of matb and still call the process Brat los. Christian Science is un likePl*rything else. It stands alone; they is no other religion, theory, creed or doctrine that is anything like It, and there hever will be, for it is absolute and final. It is based upon the principle of unchanging truth, un dying life, and unselfish love, which triune principle is God, that is "yes terday, today and forever" the same. Christian Science teaches that all is mind, that there is no matter; and the Scriptures declare "Heaven and earth shall pass away." What does this teach but that all matter and mate riality shall pass away, but that the divine mind and his idea shall remain forever? And, furthermore, what else does it teach but that all which God has not made shall be swept away and annihilated; for nothing that He has made can ever be destroyed, since all He made was good? Christian Science teaches, "There is no matter." But does anyone for a moment suppose that .to Christian Scientists there Is no matter? If they had demonstrated up to that point, they would not be visible to mortal sense any more than Jesus was in what has been termed his ascension. Christian Scientists still eat and drink and wear clothing, and live in houses, and are visible to mor tal sense like other people. They see, theoretically and understandingly in a measure, that there is no matter, but they have by no means demonstrated it entirely They do not take material medicines or physical treatment of any kind, as a rule, in time of sickness and suffering; they know that matter can not heal disease, that nothing but truth, divine mind, can overcome error of any kind. Example of Jesus. Jesus of Nazareth did not use mate rial means in healing disease. It was the power of the spirit with which He destroyed sickness as well as sin; al though it is stated, and some are us ing it as an argument against Chris tian Scientists, that He put clay on the blind man's eyes when he healed him. But the wonderful lesson he was teach ing His disciples in that demonstra tion was, that all men (mortal) are born blind, and cannot see until the clay of material sense is washed away by the cleansing waters of the spirit of Christ, and then they will see, and see clearly. Christian Scientists are finding more and more that food does not sustain life; that while they are eating so-called material food that it has no real life-sustaining properties or qualities. Take, for instance, a pleoe of beefsteak that is first killed, then carefully cooked, until no life is left in it, before we eat it to save our life. If food could actually sustain life, then no one could die with food in his stomach. Yet Christian Scientists will never stop eating and drinking until they have demonstrated over it, and that will not be until they have demonstrated over the flesh and all mortality, But how long that will take or when that will be accomplished, "No mae knoweth." It woad be the height of folly for esyone to step eating until by actual knowleas aun practical demonstra tlb be 'hd'proved that he could Rve withe e esag. Christian Oblnhoe, like the Scriptures, teaches "Wisdom is the )rniieat thinsa; and it certainly would Set be wise to jump from the pinnacle of the temple or do any other uncalled for or unnecessary thing. They do not stop the use of drug remedies until they have found by experience and act ual knowledge that they have no real curative qualities or health-producing properties. And' Chrlqtian Icientiats are learning more and mote to let oth er people alone until they have Pound this out, before they talk to them very much of the Christ cure. There is No Death. Christian Science sounds the tocein "There Is no deqth." St. Paul writes in his first letter to the COrinthians "The last enemy to be destroyed is death," and the revelator saw death and hell cast into the lake of fire. In his most wondrous vision he saw the "tabernacle of God among men," and God should wipe away all tears from his eyes and there should be no more death., 'hatever is to be with Clod, is done. Since, therefore, there is to be a time when death shall not be, in fact, there is no death today. What will ever he true, In truth, is a pres ent accomplished fact. What will ever be found to be not true, is not true today. When we found that there were no fairies, we found there never had been any. When we found there was no Santa Claus, we found there never had been one. When we found the sun did not rise, we found that it never had risen. If ever there Is to be it time when there is no death, then there Is no death today; and if there I. a place anywhere In ills presence. where there is no death, then there is no death anywhere, because He is everywhere, and there is no death where He is not. Death, therefore, is another error t ~at Christ--the truth- cast out. For hs in Adam, error all die, even so In Christ-truth--shall be made alive. I. Cor. 15:22. Jesus of Na zareth did not raise Lazarus from the dead simply to restore him to family and friends, and a temporal life again, to suffer and die, and be mourned and lamented, but to show the power of truth to overcome error, to show that life was the master of death, that the Christ could triumph over every evil, sickness, sin and death, and since, as the Bible de clares, that sin brought death into the world, therefore the overcoming of sin Is the overcoming of death. And since sickness and sin are overcome by the same Christ power, therefore, to the extent that sickness or sin is overcome by truth, to that extent is death overcome. Therefore, whenever Christian Scientists demonstrate over sickness or sin, either in themselves or others, they are overcoming death In a measure, and with the disappear ance of sickness and sin death will disappear, and be as though It had not been, as Indeed it nev.er was. Christian Science more than any other religion teaches the divinity of Christ. See "Science and Health, with key to the Scriptures," page 26, line 10. And tile glorious science of being comes in the name of Christ, with healing In its wings, to promulgate the kingdom established by Him of which there should he no end. "A glorious day 1, dawilnm. And o'er the waking earth The heralds of the morning Are. springing into birth. In dark and hidden places T'here shines the blessed light; The beam of truth displaces The darkness of the night. The advocates of error Foresee the glorious morn And hear in shrinking terror The watchword of reform. It rings from hill and valley, It breaks oppression's chain; A thousand freemen rally And swell the mighty strain. The watchword has been spoken, The light has broken forth, Far shines the blessed token Upon the startled earth. To hearts and homes benighted, The blessed truth is given; And peace and love united, Point upward into heaven."

NECESSARY TO WEAL OF COUNTRY WIPING OUT OF WALL STREET WOULD WORK IRREPARABLE DAMAGE TO BUSINESS. New York. Feb. 7.-Will Wall street ever be abolished? And if it is, what will b. the consequences? These are the two questions which naturally arise in connection with the appoint ment by Governor Hughes of a com mission to investigate the famous home of stock speculators, and the general demand throughout the coun try for some sort of regulation of the stock speculating center of tne United States. Neither Governor Hughes nor the federal authorities of this country. however, can pride themselves on the initiation of this movement. As a matter of fact action looking to the prevention of stock jobbing began two hundred years ago in the reign of King George II, according to the forthcoming number of Appleton's magazine, which quotes from the pro atnble to a bill Introduced in the Eng lish parliament declaring that "where as, great inconveniences have arisen and do daily arise by the wicked, pernicious and destructive practice of stock jobbing, whereby many have been and are diverted from pursuing and exercising their lawful trades and vocations to the utter ruin of them selves and their families, to the great discouragement of industry and to the manifest detriment of tralde and com merce," and so on. "This is not the preamble to a ball Introduced in the New York state ligislature," says the Appleton article, "based upon the findings of the com mission of bankers, business men and economists recently appointed by Governor Hughes to investigate Wall street, but it is the preamble to a bill introduced In the English parlament by Sir John Barnard in 1734, shortly after the bursting of the South Sea Bubble, designed to prevent the In famous practice of stock jobbing, and I thus protect the 'many good subjects I of His Majesty,' King George II. "It illustrates the age-old exercise of sovereign power in efforts to regu 1 late the working of the delicate and I complicated machinery of speculation to accord with public sentiment, and at the same time It affords a glimpse I into the state of public opi;lon in England nearly two centuries ago which offers a striklng parallel with the sentiment which in this country today has shaped the Hughes investi a gation of Wall street. Legislattlon of a similar character was undertaken in this country in 1812 when thea New York state legislature passed an or a dinance which was repeated in 1868, aprolhibiting short selling acid options." Nothing New. So after all there is apparently nothing new under the sun, so far as a the plaroposal to abolish Wall street a goes,. But the nearly two century old English attempt to control 'stock gambling" wais without effect, and so " there still remains the question as to how it might be acconplished and amost important aof all as to what would happen were Wall street abol l:shed-wiped out of existence, ! Experts on matters pertaining to the a stock exchange while readily admit I ting the need of certaln reforms, mailntain that to abolish Wall street a In its entirety would be to wreck Scredlits everywhere. One evil of stock a exchange management, taccorditng to a. these friendly critics, is tihe occasional listing of unsafe and purely specu a latli\ . securltles, through which the a llubllc may be fleeced. The other a is the method of the admission a'of Ialamembers by which mellen in a sup I) poxdly reputable body call, as they , have, within two year's after their admission, apparently change from I men entirely ac'eptable to the mnem a (.hlr) ip committee to those 'npable of dellberately ruining hundreds of other persolns. In other words, tile two evils of the present system are characterized as undesirable securities and undesirable handlers of them. That these two ftctors w\aii soon be elimina:tea seems probable. On the other hand, finan ciers agree that far more serious evils would result if Wall street in all that It represents were actually, Sabolished. "First of all," among the effects a set forth by Appleton's, it is asserted S"it would mean the subversion of all credit, since Wall street handles athose securities on which It is based. "Whiale the country was adjusting itself to the newv condition, the situa taaon would be interesting. The first el'ffect would undoubtedly be felt by the Wall street banks, for thle forty nine national institutions there hold $709,000,000 of deposits belonging to aothller banaks throughout the country, lWhile they own outright $170,000,000 of stock exchange securities and loan no lea~ tihan $350.000,000 of their money upon securities. Directly or indirect ly these securities have been obtained through the medium of the st.O'k ex change, the banks having assisted the great distributive institutions in mar ktting securlities. Assist Work. "Inland banks have also assisted in this work, for at times they have had as much as $300,000,000 put out in loans in Wall street or stock ex change collateral and the national banks of the country alone admit out right ownership of $800.000,000 of se curities, while all other banks in the United States hold for investment in the same manner $2,144,538,000 and re port loans secured by half as much as this. "This closing of the Stock exchange would also lead to the prompt re call of immense sums of m' ney by the inland banks, the New York banks would be unable to liquidate the loans In which the money was invest ed and a lock-up of funds and bloc kading of money channels would fol low. "Something of all this wi: seen in the October panic of 1007, when the freightened scramble cf nland banks for their New York funds put a premium of four per ctllt on real money, and sent $130.000.000 hurrying out of New York within a fortnight. New York banks organized money pools of millions to support the stock exchange and permit gradlal liquida tion of loans and securities. What could they do if there were no stock c xchange' "One example will do for all. There The foods we eat furnish energy for the body just as burning coal makes steam for an engine.

The growth Is shown by the fact that In 1897 these totals were $121.864,000 and $609.581,000 respectively. Every depos it'r is therefore an il;'iree. owner of the: securities held. "The figures of railroad capitallza tion and its placemenitt throw clear light upon the relatlout. of the public to corporate enterprlio. The Inter state commerce commission' recently compllcd such statist!cs for the year 1906 and they show that of the total o0 $9,342,961,000 of railroad bonds the public held $7,962,80.,000 and of the $8,884,234,000 of .sto2k the public's holdings amounted to $4.795,716,000. "The creation of thtes securities and their distribution andl therefore the birth tnd developnme.,t of tne indus trial system of the country was made possible only by the invention of the machinery of Wall street-using that term to include the stock exchanges of the country. Without the mobilization of capital through the banking system, the heart of which is in the financial district of New York city, anid the wonderful distributive machinery of the New York stock exchange, no such in dustrial expansion as the past two de 'ades have witnessed cc.uld have oc curred. General Collapse. "If, therefore, for any reason what ever, this machinery were to become Inoperative-if the stock exchange were to close for good--not only would banking business in New York be paralyzed,, but if the 'Wall street shop' were to be literally 'shut up' cud the partnership of Wall Street & Co. dissolved, billions of dollars would imtlediately be subtracted from the value of outstanding stock and bonds, left marketless and discredited. In comes would fall proportionately, for no corporation would be hardy enough to continue dividends, to use up Its own income, when it knew not where to turn for capital to meet its needs. "In 1907, when N'ew York's banking machinery was only partly dislocated and the stock exchange only tempo rarily affected, the market value of securities was impaired by over $3, 500,000,000, and in the succeeding 12 months dividend and interest shrink age was certainly not less than $100, 000,000." To the necessity of some sort of an institution corresponding to the stock exchange at its best, Governor Hughes' commission Is sensible. To its own weakness and shortcomings the about-to-be-investigated Wall street is equally sensible, as is shown by the fact when reputations were melting like snow, under the revelation of the United States Shipbuilding scan dal, there were dealt In altogether only 500 shares out of the 25,000,000 of common stock, and 100 shares of the $20,000,000 preferred. Of the $14,500, 000 first mortgage bonds, $164.000 were', traded in all, and of the $10, 000,000 collateral bonds only $10,000, shlowigll that even Wall street has its limitations. In view of the promised investiga tions by Governor Hughes' commission of this center of trading in securities, It is interesting to note that so,long ago as 1812 the New York legislature passed an act against short selling and options which was overturned in 1858. two years before the repeal of Sir John Barnard's act in England. The movement inaugurated by Governor Hughes for the regulation of stock trading is not new even in this coun try, being, as a matter of fact, nearly a century old. Wall street, however, has seen the lhanlldwriting on the wall, and, while 1's abolishment Is not probable, It Is even now ullndertaking reforms and adopt ing a closer supervision of Its mem bers and of the securities dealt in which are designed to protect the In vesting public in its dealings in listed securities. In bringing about this improvement public opinion undonbt edly has been an important factor. KISSNER IS WOUNDED BY A PIECE OF BONE Special to The Daily Missoullan. Glendlve, Feb. 6.-A piece of human bone was the missile that inflicted a supposedly fatal injury upon William Kissner in yesterday's dynamite ex plosion. This fact was brought to light last night when the physicians instead of finding a piece of rock in Klssner's severe abdomenal injury, as they expected to do, probed the wound and found a piece of bone. It was evidently a portion of the dismembered arm or leg of Foreman Donaldson, the man who was killed by the explosion. The fact that Don aldson was between him and the dy namite undoubtedly saved the life of Kissner, who is now said to have a chance for recovery.

REVIEWS CAMPBELL'S TEACHINGS MINISTER GIVES HISTORICAL SKETCH OF FOUNDER OF CH'RISTIAN CHURCH. Yesterday morning the centennial service of the Christian church was held, Rev. W. H. Bagby taking for his subject the life and character of Thomas Campbell. His text was from Zach. 4:10, and he spoke in part as follows: "It is nothing to the discredit of any reform movement, religious or other - wise, that it had a emall and obscure beginning. It is the order or nature. "Tall oaks from little acorns grow." Large rivers have their sources in small rivulets. The Hebrew nation started with two people. Christianity itself had a small and obscure begin ning. "Across the gangplank of a sailing vessel that landed at Philadelphia in the year 1807 walked a lone stranger of quiet and dignified bearing and most benign countenance, whose com ing was destined to mark an epoch in the religious life of the new world to which he had come in search of health. That stranger was Thomas Campbell, a Scotch-Irishman from the north of Ireland, and a minister of that branch of the Presbyterian church known as Seceeders. His training consisted in complete courses in Glasgow univer sity and Divinity hall, and years of experience as a pastor and as teacher of the higher branches of learning in private institutions. He was a man of broad culture and of most catholic spirit. In every way he was eminently fitted to be the prime mover in a great religious reformation such as he was destined soon to inaugurate. "Back of every legitimate religious reformation-and there have been many since the world began-is a prophet whose soul is rendered sensi tive to existing wrong by its innate sense of right. Such a prophet was Thomas Campbell. Three considera tions moved him to launch the refor mation of which his great son, Alex ander, was to become the guiding and shaping spirit. "The sad spectacle of sectarian strife and discord which he beheld on his arrival in this land of civil and relig ious liberty. Instead of unity, frater nity and love he found, in his own words, "'angry contentions, reproaches, backbitings, evil surmlsings, enmitles, emulations, alienations, separations, ex communications and persecutions." For administering the communion to oth er Presbyterians than those of his own sect he was tried before his own Pres bytery and acquitted only on appeal to the synod, which, while acquiting him, warned him not to rbpat the of fense. This said condition appealed to him strongly and forced upon him the conviction that something should be done to heal the divisions that were responsible for so much of inharmony and heartache. His appeal was an earnest and most tender one to lay down the arms of factional and sec tarian strife and seek the unity for which Jesus almost with his . last breath, prayed. "The favorable conditions offered by America was another consideration that moved him to launch a union movement. A country that had no established or state church, where the sword had not learned to serve at the altar; that acknowledged no allegiance to any potentate, civil or religious, was in his opnion, just the most fav\orable spot on earth in jvhich to start such a movement. Subsequent events have demonstrated the wisdom of his con clusion. The seed dropped by him found lodgment in a fertile soil. The growth of the movement has been phenomenal-and it has just begun to grow. With the return to the spirit that animated the prime movers, that Is in this centennial year taking place, it will move forward with colossal strdes. "In the phenomena that attended the French revoluton he saw the sugges tion that the time was propitious that the psychological moment had ar rived. Said he, "Have not greater ef forts been made for the promulgation of the gospel among the nations since the French revolution than for many centuries before? And have not the churches, both in Europe and Ameri ca, manifested a more than usual con cern for the removal of contentions, the healing of divisions, the restora tion of 'Christian and brotherly inter course, since that event? Should we not be excited by these facts to concur with all our might to help forward this good work?" "As to the aims of this movement, they were as simple as they were Christian and conciliatory. Not to add another to the already too numer ous sects; not to promulgate a new creed to be bound upon the consciences of men; not to swallow up all other re liglous bodies and thus secure peace and harmony-none of these constitut ed the aim of the movement. Speak ing upon these subjects, Mr. Campbell said, 'This society by no means con siders itself a church, nor does at all assume to itself the powers peculiar to such a body.' As was that of Wesley. this was a movement within the church universal, for its reformation in matters manifestly wrong. Speaking of the theses proposed, he said, 'Let none imagine that the subjoined prop osltions are at all intended as over tures towards a new creed or standard for the church, or as in anywise de signed to be made terms of fellow ship. Nothing can be farther from our intentions.' rrsnrzr ~i u ugaizi in the declaration and address, the sole end and aim of the movement was to remove the causes that had disrupted the church and destroyed its harmony, and to prepare the way for the per manent bcriptural reunion of the fol lowers of Christ into one body as at the beginning. How much it has done to bring about the present state of feeling among the churches concern ing the desirability and practicability of Christian unity God only knows. It is inconceivable that a religious body of such proportions as the one that has grown up about this idea is, has contributed less than a very great deal to the results that are before the eyes of all. It has touched American life from the peasant in his cottage to the president in the White House. It has no dream of becoming the univer sal church. If it can have some humble part in bringing about peace and good will and the unity for which Christ prayed, and along with all others, be of the one great fold, its highest aspl New Spring SEEDS Now Ready Our stock of seeds for spring planting is now complete and embraces all the popular varieties in FIELD SEEDS, VEGETABLE SEEDS, FLOWER SEEDS, GRASS SEEDS from the best growers.

NO IRRIGATION NEEDS IN FLORIDA SOUTHERN STATE PAYS ATTEN TION TO DRAINAGE AND DEEP WATERWAYS. Spokane, Feb. 7.-"Florida is h0ot troubled with irrigation problems, but pays more attention to drainage, good roads, deep waterways and home-building propositions." H. H. Richardson, secretary of the board of trade of Jacksonville, says this in a letter to R. Insinger, chair man of the local board of control of the seventeenth National Irrigation congress, which will meet in Spokane, August 9 to 14, in replying to an in vitation to suggest topics of interest to the people of Florida to be dis cussed at the sessions. He adds: "Under the administration of ex Governor Brown, whose term expired December 81, 1908, considerable work was dorie in the drainage of the ever glades in the southern portion of the state. One of the immediate results has been the sale of more than 500,000 acres of what was otherwise waste space. "The parties who have purchased this vast area passed through Jack sonville, January 25, going south to inspect the reclaimed lands. I under stand the sale was made at $2 per acre. Our new governor, Hon. A. W. Gilchrist, of Tallahassee, seems to take great interest in this proposi tion." Aftr suggcsting that Mr. Insinger write to George F. Miles, president of the Florida Coast Canal company, which is completing an inland water way from Jacksonville to Miami, and to Duncan U. Fletcher of Jackson ville, president, and Leland J.

Mr. Richardson says the last named organization is urging a proposition of inland water ways from the Mississippi to the gulf coast of Florida, then by ship canal across the peninsula state, coining into the St. John's river, and thence to the Atlantic ocean.
