exponent of the evolution of the spirit
from the physical, was for twelve years
a materialist. She says that she suc
ceeds best with religious persons-those
who have a flsed spiritual faith, no mat
ter by what de-nomination they specify
themselves. With the agnostic and ma
terialist the work must be begun from
the ground floor, so to speak, while in
the religious a foundation is already laid,
and they are predisposed to an accept
ance of the teachings of Theosophy. To
the agnostic it must first be demonstrated
that there is something outside of the
physical world—that there is a spiritual
universe, which, althouh Invisible, is
nevertheless definite and tangible. This
groundwork has already been covered hy
those who are truly religious and who
possess a spiritual faith. To secure to
religion an empire more secure, based on
knowledge of the invisible—this, in brief,
i? the purpose and aim of the Theoso
phists. says Mrs. Besant.
Although the Theosophists who do not
affiliate with the parent crganiz;»!ion have
been rather rough in their criticisms of
Mrs. Besant. she has nothing to s.iy
against them. "I believe that in time all
believers in Theosophy In America will he
again united. The followers of the late
Mr Judge teach the same truths as we—
there is no difference in the aims ami pur
poses of the two bodies."
Since Mrs. Besant reached New York,
last March, eleven new branches have been
established in the i'nited States, with a
membership ranging from li to -fc.
Mrs. Besant is or Irish parentage, but
was born in London in 1547. She married
MRS. ANNIE BESANT.
Rev. Frank Besant. a clergyman of the
church of England, but the union was not
a happy one. and after six years of married
life they separated. She became promi
nent soon after in her association with
Charles Bradlaugh, the atheist member of
parliament, with whom she published a
pimphlet entitled "The Fruits of Philos
ophy." The statements In this work I<ml
to their prosecution, but tier enemies were
unsuccessful, and the prosecution was
soon dropped. After a short career as a
»Kvlalist lecturer. Mrs. Besant embraced
the faith of Mine. Biavatsky, the founder
of the Theosophlcal Society. Since the
Biavatsky became an astral body. Mrs.
Besant has been recognized a.s her succes
sor in the propagation of the rult and has
closely followed -her methods, traveling all
over the world and building up the mem
bership of the sodety. She is aceompan?•
ed by the Countess Waehmeister. a pro
found and devoted student of Theosophy.
who has employed her large wealth and
talents to the propngation of the filth.
The countess is an elderly, but very vigor

MORE BAND CONCERTS
THIRD YEAR OF THE POST-IXTEL
LIGESKER ENTERTAINMENTS.
The Pint of the Series Will Be Given
Sest Saturday F.venintr Pro
gramme to Be Made I p Front
Suggestions Sent to This Ofliee.
Whieh Most Be on Hand Not Inter
Than Thursday—Wajtner's Great
Organization to Piny for the
People.
The splendid success which attended the
Post-Inte!ligejicer'« series of al fresco mu
sicaies last summer has induced the man
agement of the paper to again inaugurate
that* popular entertainment for the pres
ent season. Commencing xt Saturday
and continuing at intervals the First Reg
iment hand will give concerts in front
of the Cherry street entrance to the Post-
Intelligencer building. No more hearty
indorsement has ever be»-n given public
enterprise than that which the magnifi
cent crowds of all elements of society
gave the concerts last summer, which led
up to the scries of successful concerts at
the Seattle theater during the season just
closed, the first of which was a compli
mentary one to the patrons and friends
of the Post-Intelligencer.
This year the popularity of the "P.-I."
concerts promises to be repeated, and the
Improved condition of cherry street will
allow the crowds to partak<* of the sym
phonic refreshments offered with a greater
degree of comfort than attended the con
certs last year. The management has de
cided to allow the public to make its own
choice of music for the firs-t concert, and
with this idea in view suggestions are In
vited for the making up of the programme
for Saturday nieht. These suggestions are
to be addressed to the musical editor of
the Post-Intelligencer, and will be re
ceived not later than Thursday evening.
The selections asked for will be printed
from day to day. and from them Band
master Wagner will make up his pro
gramme for Saturday night.
It is not expected that everything asked
for .will be played, but tive public disposi
tion will be consulted as far as It Is prac
tical. Ono of tho attrairtive pieces, the
public reniiitlon of which is looked for
ward to with much pleasure, is Mr. Sol
Asher's new march. "Cervus Alces," dedi
cated to Seattle Lodge No. 92. B. P O.
Elks. Besides this particular selection.
Band naster Wagner has announced that
there will be new music received fre
quently through the summer that will in
clude the Eastern musical successes.
All of the members of the tine organiza
tion that has made Seattle famous for its
band music are retained, and the same
quality that attseherl itself to the con
certs of ISJ#> will he found in those of this
year. The diversity of character in tho
musical repertoire of tl»e hand is calcu
lated to appeal to every variety of taste.
There are thousands of selections from
the masters that are always good and al
ways in demand by the classically dis
posed lovers of music, and the later pro
ductions of modern composers add a spice
and snap to the soberer harmony that is
eminently fitting to the popular taste.
Tt is with a great deal of pardonable
pride that the Post-Intelligencer an
nounces its third year in the line of pro
viding popular concerts, and the satisfac
tion derived from its enterprise and the
many kind things said of the concerts of
last year go a great way toward reward
ing it for a further attempt to give the
citizens of Seattle wholesome entertain
ment. j
The idea of the fir*t fincert being made
up of select lo'ns by th« people occurs in
the recoil 'ction of the enormous crowds
