CURE BY CHRISTIAN SCIENCE"
THE SAD CONFUSION OF TERMS OF WHICH HEAL
ERs BY FAITH ARE GUILTY.

ERS BY FAITH ARE GUILTY.
To the Editor OF The Tribune.
sir: This mornings issue OF The Tribune names a
woman In Brooklyn as having been recently cured
Of internal tumor large a cocoanut and as
hard lint,' by faith At the same time the cure
Is credited to the advice OF Christian Scientist
who called to the patient and who asked her II
she knew that God omnipotcnt and omnipresent'
These words coming TO her mind on waking from
sleep, she goes to say that at the same instant
she heard a voice saying. i do not make you suffer-
neither do l make sickness and that then she knew
that she had touched the hem of Gods ga mcnts'
for instantly she felt herself healed. She adds !
never felt I'm better condition than now'
But thus TO identify cure by faith In " the ON
impotence and omnpresenco Of GOd' with cure by any
hind of science is both confusion OF thoughts ana
contradiction OF terms Cure by science is cure ac-
coring to known and established physiological laws
Cure BY faith Is which comes by Gods transcend
ing those which lie has Himself established tana
IN exact accordance with which all suffering ana All
sickness do GOMEZ. In answer TO believing prayer.
That God may not now, or that lie docs hV'
even now, give sucn faith and grant such cure 10
not affirm But II Is abuse OF terms 10 can IL
scientific. without that strict uniformity OF law whlcl
is the basis OF all science miracle by iath Woulu D

EquaIIging It's EMPLOYEES Wages

The Pennsylvania Road and Pensylvania
Company have finally decided upon the
equalization in wages, and notice will be
posted by the superintendent at the end
of this week, to go into effect on March 1.
The basis proposed is mileage. The
whole equalization necessitates an in
crease in expenditures Of $25O,000 per
year. Extreme Western leased roads, as
the Jefferson, Madison and Indianapolis,
have been paying employees less than the
Pennsylvania Road, and these mems wages
must be brought up to the standard, so
that uniform rate will be obtained
throughout. The equalization does not
apply TO any except train men, etc. The
yardmen's wages are in separate scale,
and it is asserted that there is a balance
struck between wages paid at Pittsburgh
and at Chicago.

A BIG CANAL SCHEME.
The Cold North Country is Ringing
With Enterprise.
New York and Minneapolis Capitalists
TO Cut a Passage from Lake Mich
igan to Lake Superior Through
the Michigan Peninsula.

Some months ago at Escsnaba, Mich,
plan was conceived whereby the distance
by water from ports on Lake Michigan
10 Lake Superior could be reduced about
oOO miles. party OF capitalists con
sldered the feasibility of the project, and
about decided to carry the plans into ex-
ecutIon. For unknown reasons, however,
the matter assumed no definite shane.
The proposed plan was to construct a
canal connecting the two great bodies
of water from the head of Big Bav De
Noe, in Lake Michigan, to South Bav, in
Lake Superior. The distance is forty
miles. It is now authenticity stated
that New York and Minneapolis capita
lists have received the project, and that
survey will soon be made, locating
route with view to commencing the
construction of what would prove an
important waterway. Competent en-
gineers, whose attention has been direct
ed to the plan, pronounce it perfectly
feasible. Chicago, Milwaukee, Duluth
and Marquette would be particularly
benefited by the proposed canal. The
distance would be reduced fully one day.
Besides, the dangerous passage through
the Straits of Mackinao and the $500"
would be avoided. The esti mated cost
Of the canal is $5,000,000, and if
sufficient capital can be secured and the
plan meets the expectations of those in
terested, the work will soon be inaugural
ed. Vessel owners and captains speak
highly OF the scheme, and pronounce it
grand ACHE Tenent If perfected.

THE INDIAN NEW YEAR.
How the Onondagas Celebrate the Festive
Occasion.

How the 0nOndagas Celebrate the Festive
Occasion.
There is strong smell Of burnt white
dog around the council house of the
Onondaga Indians at this place, seven
miles f1om Syracuse. The red gentle
man can select his own day for making
New Years calls, and can also celebrate
the occasion by cooking a white dog,
says an Ouondaga special.
The pagan Onondaga Indian starts his
New I ear about the same time during
the third quarter of the moon nearest
the 1st of February, and sits up nights
to find out when that is. he has an idea
that there is an influential God called
Agreskoi who had best be propitiated at
this time by contributions of tobacco,
and particularly of the death of white
dog. The council house" looks like a
neglected one-story, crossroads schoo
house, but the legend goes that the
council fire has never gone out from
so far way back that you can't count
it.
waterbury alarm clock alarmed the
picked boys of the tribe at a. N. yester
day. Somebody else went in the couD-
Gil house and swept up last years ashes,
started a new fire and brought out the
old ashes to be blown 10 the four winds
of heaven. While this was going on the
chief had hurried through his breakfast
and the squaws were doing up the dishes.
The cheif hurried their breakfasts in
order to go aud hang a white dog in the
kitchen Of red gentleman who stands
high in the Six nations. It was q secret
ceremony, and the shades were pulled
down. The gentlemen officiating wore
their Sunday feathers and paint. The
gentleman brought the dog into the coun-
ell hall and put him on bench, and
made motions and noises necessary for a
frst-cIass incarnation. Finally, all heard
an eloquent Grafton over the deceased by
Chef Webster. Then the cog and some
navy plug tobacco and some herbs raised
on the reservation were all thrust into
the stove together, that By this time was
red hot. Every pagan Indian on the
reservation is taking three days vaca
ton. Besides the white dog cremation, |
the New Years ceremonies consist of
eating all that there is around and hold /
ing Zig dances. !
