8 TEACHERS TAKE IN THE TOWN. CHICAGOANS WILL DO THE CITY IN APPROVED STYLE TO-DAY. They Want to See Savannah, lint Are Very Anxious to Take in Tybee Also. anl Will Endeavor to Do Both—The Two Chicago Organiza tions Are on Pleasant Terms anil Have Able nnd Energetic Women at Their Heads—They Anticipate Good Thing* of Savannah and Will Not 15c Disappointed. The Chicago school teachers are 'now in full charge, of the De Soto, and have their plans ail mapped out to take charge of Savannah to-day and explore it from one end to the other. They have heard a great deal about Savannah, they say— what a pleasant old Southern city it is and what a good modern city it !s at the same lime—and they want to put these reports to the test. The teachers are divided, however, be tween their desire to see Savannah and their anxiety to tnke in Tybee. Th< y have been traveling since last Thursday, and, besides, the ocean is a rare sight to most of them, and they are, one and all, eager to see the big. briny and play in the surf. They were advised last night that they would do well to put in tin entire day taking in the city and to put off their surf bathing until they reach Charleston, but the majority declare that they cannot wait, and Tybee is likely to have the call to-day. The Chicago Teachers’ Club, nearly 100 strong, reached the- city last night over the Central, dividing among the different hotels, but the majority joining the Teach ers’ Federation party at the De Soto. The •two organizations are very closely allied end on the best of terms, many of the teachers being members of lK>tn. The fed eration looks after the material welfare of the teachers, while the. club is intended more for ethical culture and Membership in the Federation is limited atricliy to class-room teachers, and it is eaid to be the largest organization of the kind in the United States. Miss Catha rine Goggin is president and is evidently the right woman in the right place. Miss Elizabeth B. Hoot, president of the Chicago Teachers’ Club, is an elderly white-haired lady, but full of life and en ergy and evidently knows how to handle a. large body of teachers successfully while enjoying the work as w-ell as anyone, who ever undertook such e task. The teach ers strolled around the wide haUonles of the De >BOIO, enjoying the cool breeze after their hot and dar-ty trip. Later a number gathered in the ladies’ parlors and sang songa. “Illinois” was the favorite, and was surg with much **pirit and expression. Miss Root was found in the midst of her party and talked readil> of her irip. “We have hod a very pleasant tint", in deed,” she said, “barring a few- incidents such as are always likely to occur on such trips. We visited the Mammoth Ci.\e. Lookout Mountain, the battlefields of Chickam :itga and Chattanooga, and ppem a day in Atlanta. The most feature of the trip w-as the miserable treatment accorded us at the Atlanta ho tel, where I took a party of ninety. We were Absolutely shown no consider.!'ion ■whatever by the hotel people. Our re ception here has been altogether differ ent, and we are very well pleased. In fact, we have been hearing g<ki things of Savai nah all the way down, and we are prepared to believe that we shall not be disappointed. The weather has been very pleasant until to-day. the trip from Atlanta being very hoi and dusty. We were very anxious to reach here in time to take in Tybee to-night, but most of Uc will tideavor to do so to-day.” The teachers are divided as to whether they shall visit Tybee early this morning and tour the city in the afternoon or vice versa. They have been advised that the quickest way of doing the city is ro take the street cars, and most of them will accept this advice. They are al- interested in looking up the monu ments, and the places of historic imerest in and around the eity, including Jasper Springs, the Hermitage and Bonaventura. Pamphlets have been furnished them con taining a list of these places of interest and they will endeavor to take in as many as possible to-day. The Wisconsin party, about 150 strong, is expected to reach the* city this after noon, together with a number of strag glers from the two organizations already here. Besides the Chicagoans, there nre •everal teachers from the far Northwest ern sia'f-s Prof. It. S. Bingham, sup erintendent of the public schools of Ta coma. Wash., together with other teach ers. paid Superintendent Ashmore a pleas tu t call last night. Prof. Bingham is .e- Firous of getting the convention out his way next year. TV BEE'S jew POSTMASTER. Mr. JnniM AV. \ohlc Now In Charge of the Office. The residents and visitors at Tybee will continue to get their mail on the island. The government, or rather the gentleman who runs the fourth assistant postmaster's department at Washington, has kindly ac cepted of Congressman Issuer's recom mendation that the order abolishing (he Tybee postofflee be revoked and that Mr. James W. Noble be appointed postmaster. Mr. Noble, as announced in the Morning News, has reeeieed Ids commission last week and is now in Charge of the office. The order abolishing the office was is sued on the recommendation of Postofflee Inspector O'Brien, who was dissatisfied with the manner In w hich the office was being run by the then incumbent. As ef forts had been made to secure a more sat isfactory incumbent without success In spector O’Brien's recommendation was adopted. When Congressman Lister filed a protest with the department In behalf of the people of Tybee he was Informed that if a suitable person could be named before the time named for the order to go into effect'ihat the office would he con tinued. Mr. Noble's name was at once fient forward and he was accepted by the department. Mr. Noble is superintendent of the Tybee waterworks and doubtless has plenty of time to attend to the post pfflee also. REPORT FOR EXAMINATION. ' The Newly Elected Officers of the Chatham Artillery. The newly-elected officers of the Chat ham Artillery, First Lieutenant Harry s. Ureese, First Lieutenant, junior grade, C. W. Saussy and Second Lieutenant A. D. Krenson have been ordered to report to the local military examining board, of which Capt. J T. West is the president, for examination for their commissions. The order comes from the office of the ad jutant general of the slate. WASTED OVER IN CHARLESTON. W. M. Small* Held for Bnrglary In South Carolina. W. M. Smalls, who was arrested last w<-tk as a luspiclous character, turns out to be wan ed in Charleston on a charge of trurglary. Superintendent of Police Screv en received last night a telegram from Chief at Poll' e w. A. Boyle of Charles l to that effect, and was asked to hold ?*► ram until an officer could he sent for fcun. ‘ TOO >IICH OF A GOOD THING. \ Hotel Clerk’* Snj About the “Shirt Sleeve* Brigade.** That there are two sides to every ques tion is proven occasionally in the most ! unexpected manner. That never a thing could he said against the “Shirt Sleeves Brigade,” its adherents and advocates have heretofore steadfastly believed, but ! a recent occurrence seems to indicate that even a good thing can easily be curried <OO far. “Who the blank is that blankety-blqnk idiot who has been writingall this otaboui the ’Shirt Sleevek Brigade’ for your pa per?” queried a clerk in one of the well known hotels of a Morning News reporter a day or two ago. “Why do you want to know?” asked the newspaper man in his turn, rapidly seeing visions of his fellow quill-ymsher being assaulted by several determined men. and anxious, therefore, to conceal his Identity. “Well,” said the clerk, “we used to have a fairly weli-behaved lot of people about this hotel The masculine portion of our guests had never heard that they had any rights and they would sit through their meals, garbed in the customary attire of civilization, without regard to the state of the weather or the hight of the mer cury in the thermometer. They never made any kicks against the womanly privilege of wearing shirtwaists, without coats or jackets, that was denied to them, and alw r ays seemed to be a rea sonably contented and satisfied lot of mortals.” "Here lately, however, since this talk about the ‘Sh rt Sleeves Brigade’ has been going the rounds, they have foregathered and discussed their wrongs. They have evidently come to the conclusion that it is a howling shame that they should be compelled to wear coats at any time when they don’t want to wear them, and a considerable number of them have drop ped into the habit of dropping into meals in the Morning News’ suggested negligee —a shirt, pair of irousers and belt.” “The dining room hod begun to wear the appearance of that of a country hotel on court day, when the horny-handed sons of toll from the surrounding necks of the woods, come into town to litigate and drink with their neighbor.- and to swap hordes and yarns. I think the blamed thing is being carried too far.*’ “Well, whet are you doing about it?” the reporter a.sk*d the clerk, after this tale of woe had been brought to a close. “Do? What can we do? We are now engaged in that pleasing and exciting pastime known as grinning and bearing it. and. as long ns the fad lasts. I expect that this is all we ehail do. Why don’t you keep all this blatant nonsence out of the paper and not encourage the ordinary, every-day male human, who is enough of on ass by the grace of nature, to try te break the asininity record?” The newspaper man grinned and passed by on the other side, while the clerk, glancing up et the indicator to verify his belief that the frantic appeals for iced water came* from the. room of one of the offending members of the offensive brig age. first glowered at the bell and then re sumed his work on the books. CROWDS AT THE RESORTS. Hot Weather Sent Many- People to the Salta. Another scorching hot day yesterday drove the people to the resorts in iarge numbers. While the heat was not so gcat as it was the last two days, reaching yesterday only % degrees, against 9S and 99 Friday and Saturday respeclively, yet combined with the gerat humidity it made the city decidedly uncomfortable, and created a general exodus to Tybee. Thunderbolt, Isle of Hope, and even War saw. Tybee, as is usual, cot by far the larg est number. About 1,500 people went down during the day. The heaviest travel look place in the afternoon, about one half of the total number who went to the island going on the 3:35 'o’clock train, which was made up of fourteen coaches, all well filled. The tide suited for bathing during the afternoon and though a heavy rain squall that came up shortiy after 4 o’clock threatened to mar the pleasure of the ex urslonists. it blew away In e short time. Hundreds spent the afternoon in the surf Having it only in time to take the train back to the cily. Isle of Hope, 100, came in for an unusu ally largo number of visitors, almost every one of the ears that left during the afternoon being completely filled. An other popular resort was Thunderbolt, many members of the Yacht Club spend ii.tr almost the entire day there while the other resorts along the bluff were well patronized. The Santee which made the trip to \\ irsaw took about two hundred jiassen gers. WITH A SOLDIER'S HONORS. The Body of Stephen J. M. Baker Was Laid to Rest In Ronnventnre. The funeral of th late Stephen J. M Baker took place at 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon from the residence of his son in-law, Mr. W. N. Nichols, No. 103 Henry street, east. It was largely attended, cit izens, Confederate veterans and military doing honor to the memory of the man who was conspicuous in his day as a citi zen and a soldier. The Confederate Veterans' Association, under command of Hon. Robert Falllganf, with Gen. McGlashan brigade command er, in line, and the Georgia Hussars, un der comnmnd of Lieut. C. A. L. Cunning ham, paid the last tribute of respect to their late comrade. The house was filled with friends and relatives. The services were conducted by Rev. J. D. Jordan of the First Bap tist Church and Rev. W. C. Schaeffer of the Lutheran Church of the Ascension. At their conclusion the coffin, wrapped In a Confederate flag, upon which rested a sheaf of wheat, was borne from the house by Mr. Dwight Roberts, Mr. John Sullivan, Mr. T. H. Maxwell, Mr. George T Nichols, Mr Albert Wylly and Mr. E. W. Cubbedge. As it was lifted into the I hearse, the Hussars and Confederate vet- I erants stood at parade rest. The inter ! ment was in Bonaventure Cemetery, where the last rites were said by Dr. Jordan, the Hussars fired a salute over the grave and the soldiers’ good night was sounded. A SAUTE FOR THE DEAD. Fired by Chatham Artillery at Funeral of Robert M. Tilton. The funeral of young Robert M. Tilton, who lost his life in an accident at the Plant System yards Friday night, took place from St. Paul’s Protestant Episco pal Church, at 9 o'clock yesterday morn ing. Rev. J. L. Scully conducted the ser vices. ' The funeral was attended by the Chat ham Artillery. At the grave in Laurel Grove the Ohathams fired a salute of three guns over the grave of their depart ed member. The funeral was attended also by a large number of the friends of the young man, whose death, under cir cumstance* so partk-ularly and peculiarly sad. had attracted much sincere sym pathy. i a i— i Civil Week in the Courts.

BECILVR PRIESTS OF THE DIOCESE OF SAVANNAH AT ST. STANISLAVS. Annual Period of Fasting, Medita tion and Prayer Will Begin To day nnd LflNt Until Saturday. nihop Kelley Went to Macon Fri day—Reverend Father* Kennedy, HennpMey and Reilly, of the Cathedral, and Reverend Father* McCarthy and Quinlan, of St. Pnt rick’n. Are In Mnoon Now—Dioce min Synod, Attended ly All Pastor* of the Diocexe, on Thurnduy. The annual retreat of the clergy erf the Catholic diocese of Savannah will be held during this week at St. Stanislaus College, in Macon, beginning this morning and ending on Saturday'. The five secular priests of the Savannah parishes left last night to attend the retreat. Rt. Rev. Benjamin J. Kelley', D. D, bishop of the diocese, left for Macon <n last Friday. Last night he was followed on the Central train by Reverend Fathers Kennedy, Hennessey and Reilly of the Cathedral, and Reverend Fathers McCar thy and Quinlan of St. Patrick’s. These include all the secular or diocesan clergy of Savannah, the pastors and assistants of the other churches being members of one or another of the religious orders. The diocesan retreat will be attended by all the Catholic clergy, not members of the orders, in the see, numbering about thirteen in all. The retreat in the Cath olic Church is a period of retirement to a religious house, for self-examination, meditation, fasting and prayer. Retreats ate conducted by r a cleric, who delivers daily addresses. The r treat of diocesan clergy' in Macon will be conducted this year by Reverend Father John O Connor of the Society of Jesus. Father O'Connor is a brother of Mrs. John Lyons of Savan nah, and is well known here. On Thursday a diocesan synod will be held in St. Stanislaus, at which four con suitors for the diocese will be selected. The consul tors are chosen by the votes of the pastors of the diocese, and the members of the religious orders who have charge of the churches in the see will go up to Macon Thursday to attend this synod. Father William Mayer and Fa ther Andrew, of Savannah, will then be added to the local clergy in attendance upon the retreat. The eonsultors form a cabinet, as it were, for the bishop, and are conferred with by him whenever matters of extra ordinary moment require his consideration and and Termination. To th<m he is wont to look for assistance and advice when the religious welfare of his diocese and his people is concerned. The office is, of course, one of honor and distinction, and also, as it is filled by election, is a mark and proof of the regard and respect in which the successful candidates are held by their fellow-laborers in the work of the church. The fact thht the retreat would be ’n progress during the present week was an nounced in the Catholic churchea of Sa vannah on yesterday. The prayers of the congregations were requested for the clergy' in this 6eason of prayer, fasting and meditation, to the end that they might be uplifted and upheld and be more perfectly' and devoutly consecrated to their work. During this wee-k there will be no masses celebrated, either at the Cathe dral or St. Patrick’s. Rev. Father Wil liam Mayer, of the Sacred Heart Church, will attend emergency calls during the week, in the absence of the pastors and nsfistant pastors of the Cathedra! and St. Patrick’s. * Besides the election of the eonsultors there will be other important business transacted at the diocesan synod that will be held on Thursday. The synod will bo the first held since the consecration of Bishop Keiley, and for this reason it is probable that it will be attended by evente of much more than passing inter est. FATHER-IN-LAW DEAD. Mr. anil Mrs. A. J. Garfunkel Called to New York. Mr. A. J. Garfunkel received a telegram yesterday announcing the death of his fatherin-in-law, Mr. Jesse Hecht. at his home in New York city. The family here had been notified of the serious illnese of Mr. Hecht, and Mrs. Garfunkel left yes terday at noon to be with her father. The telegram was received after her depart ure. Mr. Garfunkel left at night to join his wife and to be present at the funeral. The deceased was a native of Frankfort, Germany, but came to this country in 1847, going to California fb the pioneer days. He afterwards engaged extensively in trading between this country and Europe, crossing the ocean 49 times. He was 73 years of age. Mr. Hecht spent last win ter in Savannah with his daughter, and made a number of acquaintances who will regret to hear of his death. ♦ WILL FILL VACANCIES. Several Expected to Occur In the Ranks of Teachers. The Board of Education will hold its July meeting this afternoon. There are several Interesting matters to come up. Supt. Ashmore will make his report upon thfe recent examination of applicants to teachers’ places in the schools, and the names of those whOvObtained the required percentage will be placed upon the eligible list. It is likely that the board wfll have sev eral vacancies among the teachers to fill, several resignations being expected. There Is always a number of aspirants for these places, and the action of the board will be awaited with interest. The rebuilding of Chatham Academy and the progress made by the committee appointed to select and submit a plan to the academy (rustees will doubtless come up for Incidental discussion. mrnws 'i it 11* to They Will Drin: I In* F.irurNlon of tlie SeflNon July 18.

How the Navul Battalion Musician* Came to Be Organiitd. A unique figure in Savannah’s military organizations and one that has attracted considerable interest Is the Naval Bat talion Drum and Bugle Corps, organized by Mr. E. V. Petit last February. The corps now numbers about twenty boys, between 12 and 15 years old; of these eight are buglers, four are drummers, and eight lifers, though as the fifers have been added only’ recently they have not as yet taken part in any of the public appear ances of the corps. Mr. Petit, who organized the corps, and to whose efforts the preeent high state of proficiency- is due, had his attention first called to the possibility of such youthful material for a corps by the very successful efforts that a number of young sters made to master the bugle calls dur ing the time that the Seventh Army' Corps was quartered here. A great many boys seemed to take a particular liking for the bugle blowing and by their own efforts, supplemented occasionally' by the buglers of the different regiments, learned to sound many of the regulation calls. At one time the town was bugle wild, the younger portion of the Inhabitants to get bugles on which to vent their patriot ism and enthusiasm, and the grown folk wild with a desire to stop the seemingly everlasting blasts and counterblasts that echoed and re-echoed from every corner and square w here the boys congregated to practice with more patience than success “Can’t get ’em up" and other popular calls that appealed to their martial pride, but drove sleep and rest from their elders. The craze gradually died out. but not before a number of the boys had become fairly proficient buglers, and it was here that Mr. Petit found his material when he set about organizing the Drum and Bugle Corps. The boys entered heart ily into the spirit of the thing, and though required to meet for practice twice a week the interest increased rather than waned, and o numerous were the appli cations to become members of the corps that Mr. Petit was forced to place a limit on the number of members. As soon as the buglers were in fairly good practice drummers had to be found, and though these were by no means so plentiful, enough wore secured to balance the bug lers. Since its organization the corpei has token part in one or two public parades, the last time being the rally of the Citi zens’ Club just previous to the Demo cratic primary in May. The corps was paid for this work, the money going to ward the purchase of a summer uniform, which has only recently been received. It is a muster suit of white trousers and shirt, and black neckerchief. The win ter uniform is of the regulation blue of the same general make and material as that of the Naval Battalion. Mr. Petit is now busily engaged in teaching the fifers. He hopes that upon the next parade in which the corps takes part to have out the full complement of his corps, including the fifers. MOTHERED AX ORPHAN PIT Strnnge Fondness Displayed liy an Old nnd Clitokenless Hen. A story is going the rounds illustrative of the maternal instinct implanted in the female breast and that sometimes exhib its itself strangely and amid queer sur roundings. This time the heorine of the story is a benevolently inclined old hen. and the object of her attention a callow and very little puppy. The puppy was given to a ’evannah man a few days ago, before, in the course of nature, it should have been separated from its mother. The man carried it to his home and stored it away, with as much thought and care for its comforts* it was possible io bestow, in a box in the back yard. It chanced that the old hen also made her residence in the back yard, and that pestilence and the neighborhood cats had tecently served to deprive her of a fuazv brood of her offspring. The maternal in stinct had been aroused, the natural re cipients of it* attentions had been de stroyed, and the old hen wus in much trouble and tribulation of spirit. She needed something, to love as much as ihe puppy needed someone to love it. and un der these circumstances of mutual need the two seemed to be drawn irresistib'y together. i he hen made tentative approaches at first to the puppy, which, when she saw teceived in good spirit, she followed with attentions more demonstrative and affec tionate. Soon the two were the closest and best of friends. The hen would cuddle the puppy under her wings and fly into a passion of jeal ouse tage did anyone seek to disturb eith er her sharge or herself. She watjhed over the little object of her devotion with tile tenderesl care, scratching valiantly in the earth for those articles of food she thought would suit the palate of the pup py. When she desired to move to other hunting grounds she clucked as she would to some of her own offspring, and the I'Uppy would follow at her heels—of hen's have them. As yet no rift in the friendship "that ex ists has appeared. It is probabledhat the hen and rite puppy will continue their companionship until the latter has reach ed an age where he can look after him seif, and then it is likely to cease. At present it is at once Interesting and omus ing. ' liRIIK T OF ACCIDENTAL DEATH. Coroner's Finding; in Tilton and Jeilken. Inquyst An Inquiry Into the death of Robert M. Tilton, white, and Julius Jenkins, colored, the men who were run over and killed in the Plant System yards Friday night by switch engine No. 2, was held at the coroner's office yesterday afternoon. Six witnesses, the engineer and the fireman who were on the engine at the time of the accident, two switchmen and two other men who are employed about the railroad yards, were examined. Their testimony contained practically the story as told In the Morning News of July 7. It took the Jury but a short time to decide that the men came to their deaths accidentally by an engine of the Plant System. This verdict Is a little Indefinite hi its wording, hut It is understood that the Jury took the view that both men, being railroad employes, should have known to what danger they exposed themselves by standing on the tracks, and that the accident was, therefore, more or less chargeable to their own careless ness.

JOHDAS. flu Vagaries nnd Inconsistencies Pointed Out-It Claims to Be Based on the Bible aud Yet la In Contra diction With It at Almost Every Point—Hr Holds That It Is Seither Christian Yor Scientific and That It Is Simply Mere "Jingle-Jangle.” ‘•Christian Science" was the subject of Rev. John D. Jordan’s sermon at the First Baptist Church last night. The va garies and inconsistencies of the new be lief were plailny pointed out. The state ments of Christian Science were contrast ed with those of the Bible, showing how utterly the two failed to agree, although Christian Science claims to be an explana tion or a development of the Bible. The sermon was listened to and enjoyed by a large congregation. The Sunday night congregations at the First Baptist are us ually good, but the one last night was con siderably above the average. Dr. Jordan’s text was from First Thessalonians, 5.21: "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” Christianity, Dr. Jordan said, had always challenged investigation. This being the case it w-as right that the same scrutiny should be applied to all faiths, whether claiming to be Christian or in opposition to it. "I shall not abuse any Christian Scientist,” he said, “but shall simply examine the teachings of the be lief.” “Concerning God,” Dr. Jordan said, “Christian science says ‘God is All,’ ’All is God.’ Then there is nothing but God. If this be true, then God is finite as well as infinite, false as well as true, bad as well as good, hate as well as love, sin as well as righteousness, darkness as well as light, errors as well as truth, full of change, decay and corruption. "The great fact is not, however, seen to be supported by sensible evidence," re marks the author of Science and Health. We answer, even so. "Christian Science would reply, while ’God is AH’ and ‘AH is God,’ God is Good,' and 'Good is God.' If then 'God is AH' and ‘All is Good,’ there Is nothing but good. Then the Bible becomes the most delusive and contradictory book ever printed, ‘Science and Health’ not except ed. The Bible says, 'Ail (persons) have sinned and come short of the glory of God.’ John the Baptist says: 'Behold, the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world.’ St. Paul says. It is a faithful saying, and worthy of all ac ceptation that Christ Jesus came into the world to save' sinners of whom I am chief.' “God is love and love is principle, not person” (P. 28, H. and S). Therefore, God is principle, and not person. Only person can love; if. then, God be not person, God cannot love. Set this over against John, 3:!fi, “God so loved the world." The person God so loved the world. Prihciple cannot love. One per son may love another person or a princi ple, but one principle can neither love another prihciple nor any person. Love without personality is inconceivable. If "God Is All,” as Christian Science claims, then there is nothing for Him to love but Himself. If God is principle, and not person, then there can be no love in the universe, but principle loving principle, which is folly. Christian Science speaks of "The Father and Mother God.” If there were a "Father and Mother God," they must have, been persons, and their offspring must have been a person or persons. “Christian Science" says: "Man has neither birth nor death; is not old or young." Then the Bible makes a fearful blunder to speak of ihe birth or death of Moses, John the Baptist, Christ and all others, and "the old" and the “young,” if thtf be true. Christian Science denies that God cre ated matter. (P. 13, H. and S.) Gen. 1:1. "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” Isaiah. 45: 11, 12: “I have made the earth and created man upon it.” Exodus, 29:11. "In six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea and nl, that in them is.” Isaiah, 40:28. "The everlasting God, the 1/ord. the Creator of heaven and earth." John, 1,3, "The word was God." “All things were made by Him." The Bible says, "He (Christ) was wounded for our transgressions, bruised lor our iniquities nnd with His stripes wt are healed." If “all te good" and good is God" there are no transgressions, no in iquities. save the transgression and Iniqui ties of God. The Bible says, “Thou shalt call His name Jesus:" Mott. 1:21. “for he shall save His people from their sins." "Through the man 1s preached the for giveness of (Acts. 13:38.) “Who His own self bear our sins in his own body on the tree." (I Peter, 2:24.) If Christian Science he true all this talk on the Bible about sin and sinners is a mistake. God and Christ did not under stand. "Christian Science, to my mind, is blas phemous," said Dr. Jordan. "Touching herself and her vagaries. Mrs. Eddy ap plies the Messianic prophecy, of Isaiah: "Unto us a child is born • • • an< i his name shall be called wonderful.’ She forgot that the prophet spoke of a man child ’a son'—and that he was to be. The mighty £lod.’ ‘The everlasting Father,’ ’The Prince of Peace.’ "The author of “Science and Health” makes herself and her theory the fulfill ment of Christ's prophecy and puts her self and book above and in advance of Christ and the New Testament.” I)r. Jordan quoted sayings of Christian Science, and commented upon them as follows: "Nature and God are one.” What then Is nature and what Is God? He Is not the God of Nature, or over nature, but the God-Nature.” , „ “Every calculation that begins with the body begins falsely.” Then God began falsely with man for he first made his body “of the dust of the ground.” Paul declares that the natural body was be fore the spiritual. "Heaven is not a locality, but a state.” You can have no state without a locality and no locality without a state. Christian Science says: “It Is improper to speak of souls.” This means that no man lias a soul of his own. which Is ut terly false. Our Lord says: "What shall It profit a man if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own souW” "The blood, heart, lungs, brain, etc., have nothing to do with life.” God de clares the blood to be the life of the flesh, and the shedding of blood is used for the taking of life. "The Wood, heart,lungs, nnd brain” each and all have much to do with life, for It cannot continue without ony one of them. "1 sum up my theory of Christian Sci ence us follows." said Mr. Jordan: "Ideal ism without an Idea or Ideal; Christianity without ti Christ; science without a sci entific !ac< stated or demonstrated; the ological without theology, confessing to be scriptural. It denies all scriptures; a revelation without revealing anything, ex cept 'Jingle-Jangle;' claiming to be a reve lation from God. It shrouda God in dark ness qnd veils Him with mystical non sense. "It says there is no matter, then affirms that matter is the cause of all error; de clares there is no error, yet prescribes truth as a remedy to cure error; It de nies the existence of tjlsease, then tells how to trest diseases nnd sets a price on the service; It denies that there Is any death, but spenks of the dead, and Its followers Just keep on dying like other folks. It says there-is no thirst, but takes a drink: no hunger, but eats the fat of the land. Boasting of charity. It fleeces •he poor; preaches breadth, and is nar row; says all is good, and points out evils: God is AH,' and dis covers devils; preaches that all Is heaven, but warns against hell. It declares hate, slander and persecution to be delusions, then claims tha believers in this cult are hated, slandered and persecuted.” Dr. Jordan was congratulated by many of his congregation upon his thorough handling of the subject, and it was evi dent that his views upon Christian Sci ence were indorsed by his congregation. TEX SUNDAY ARRESTS, Police Had a Livelier Day Than Tsnal. The police made quite a number of ar rests yesterday, but none of the priconers was charged with serious crime. Mary Davis, an old white woman, was locked up on a charge of drunkenness. Her arrest was of a rather peculiar char acter. In the afternoon she was fairly dragged into the office of the'sergeant by another white woman, who said that she wanted Davis arrested for stealing money from her. This charge was stoutly denied by the Davis woman, and accuser and accused started such an argument that the sergeant threatened to lock them both up. This threat had the effect of in ducing them to get out of tt)e barracks without loss of time, but the place seem ed to have acquired particular attractions for the Davis woman, as she afterwards called so often and proved such a nuisance that she was loclted up to give her a chance to get rid of her jag. Domestic infelicities led Alice Garnett, colored, to chastise his wife, Ella Garnett, with the result tnat he was arrested and sent in by Patrolman J. Ferrell. When he appears before Recorder Hartridge this morning he will probably learn that the money value of getting a divorce and the satisfaction of personal chastisement is in favor of the former. Two negro boys, John N. Green and Henry Lee, were sent in by Patrolman Goribold on a charge of scorching. The other arrests were made on charges of drunkenness, disorderly conduct and fighting.
