CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.
Rev. f. a. Mason Of Brooklyn Lectures
L

Rev. +. a. Mason Of Brooklyn Lectures
TO a Large House.
The first step toward the Organizati on OF a
new church was probably taken last night
in a lecture delivered at Union square Hall
by Rev. +. A. Mason. minister, and editor
Of The Seed of Brooklyn.
The lecture, as it was termed, was a
rambling and instructive talk by Mr.. Mason
on the nature and teachings of Christian
science. The attendance vas very large,
and the speakers words were received with
marked attention.
Rev. Mr.. Mason took for his text the
scriptuTal words: ITO be carnally minded
IS death; TO be spiritually minded is life" !;
aud from that brancbed out into wide nd
comprehensive discourse. He gave his
audience to understand that Christian sci
tnce was as different from faith cure as ii
was different from the ordinary ereeds of
other religions. The new faith taught the
reputation of the evidences of the senses :;
1naSmuch as the human cannot see, taste,
feel, hear or smell good. his senses are de-
ceiving him. Sin, death, accident, chance
and disease, he held. were but emaDations
OF the human thought; God never created
them. A being who created Heaven and
happiness never could make hell or misery
Christian science taught that these evils
came from the world, not from God, and the
farther that the believer receded from the
world the farther would ne get away from
It's evils. He said that the personal appre-
hension OF the Savior was a perverted
sense. In the degree that humans compre-
hended the Savior spiritually. in that degree
would the human equal and resemble him.
1t was the approximation Of the Galilean to
God that made him what he was, not any
divine dispensation. Man had lost the sense
Of his spiritual nature. Sickness, sin and
death were merely negative thoughts.
The speaker. whose delivery was remark
ably clear and whose words were well
chosen, considering that he spoke extempo-
raneously. held the close attention of his
audience for nearly two hours.
Mr.. Mason, beginning to-day, will or
ganIze a class in Christian science, and
hopes in the near future to organize per-
manent congregation.

WELCOMED HOME.
Reception Given Captain i'm the
Boys Brigade.

Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, at the
corner of Twenty-frSt and Capp streets,
was the scene of considerable animation
last night The Council OF the SIKH San
Francisco Company of the Boys Brigade is
attached to the church, and the occasion of
the happy gathering was reception given
to Captain Edward c. Holmes, who recently
returned to the city after four months
absence in the East. Bright-faced boys in
blue uniforms and young men with shoulder
straps denoting their official rank in the
brigade turned out in full force, and so did
the members of the church congregation TO
the number of several hundred.
The sixth company, which was formed IN
April. now has a membership OF sixty. Ii
was the first company organized by Meth
odSt church in the United States, and the
congregation is justly proud of it in conse-
queuce. That is why there was such a
large assemblage to welcome home the p0 p
ular young man who commands the con-
pany. The stage was ornamented by
crossed flags, beneath which appeared the
legend, welcome Home. 3. B.
The exercises were opened by prayer
by j. II. Baker, Chaplain OF the company.
Every one Joined i'll the hymn, Onward,
Christian Soldier" after which Rev. DR..
McClish. the pastor, delivered an address
of welcome. Major Cheney of the City
Battalion made humorous speech, in
which he related incidents of the brigade
encampnent near San Rafael
DR.. Adams, President of the Council of
the United States, outlined the purposes of
the Boys Brigade. One object, he said. the
members should always keep before them
was discipline and self-control and all
that tends toward a true Christian
manlneSS. Songs were rendered by
Mrs. Andres, NJ. Husband and Mrs.
Mills, and then the boys, headed
by the fourth company of the Howard
Presbyterian Church. marched into the lee
ture parlors, where campfire was held.
They consumed beans, hard-tack and coffee
with the aYidity of veterans.
The gentlemen on the committee having
charge of the affair were: Rev. DR.. f. W.

WORLDS FAIR.
secretary Thompson's Plan for Cor


secretary Thompson's Plan for County
Organization.
Captain Thomas Ii. Thompson. the Sac-
retary OF the California Worlds Fair Com
mission, was seen yesterday shortly after A
conference with some members of the
| Worlds Fair Association of Santa Clara
| County. When asked what had been done
| IN The way OF carrying out the county or
| ganization scheme suggested by him at the
July meeting OF the commission, he said:
I'VE have about completed our plan. and
several counties are now waiting for it he
fore going any further with their work
Letters have been received from Colusa
County. and requests have just come in
from San MateO, asking for a draft of the
proposed plan, so that it can be put in force
| IN both OF those counties.
The plan is about as follows: The asso.
Citations are to be formed by citizens of the
county, but the control is to be vested in a
| directory composed of three mem bers from
each ouperYisorlal district, of whom the Sill
| perylsor OF each district shall be one. This
| does away with any question of doubt that
| may arse In the county Boards of Super
! Yls0Ts with regard to making appropria-
tlons from The General Fund Of the county
treasures. Otherwise some of these bodies
! might possibly object to turning over coun-
| ty funds to what they might claim were
!IresponsiDie organizations. But if thew are
| interested in the dispo osition of the money
| Appropriated they will not be liable to raise
| such an objection.
BESIDES the amounts secured from the
| counties each member of the association
| pays 81 on Joining, for which is issued a
| certlhcate OF membership, and by this means
/ a considerable SUN will be raised These
| certlhcates this commission proposes to fur
| nsh to the different county organizations.
| and 1t Is intended to have them of such
! character and design that they will be hand
| some souvenirs of the fair. We can pur-
! chase these In large quantities. and thus
| the cost OF each certificate will be merely
| nominal, and If sold at 81 each will bring
[ quite fund into the treasures of the yari-
| Gus associations These organizations will
| be auxlliaries to this commission and carry
| out Its policy in the different counties as
| well as attend to the work of collecting their
| own exhibits. Thus uniformity in the work
| throughout the State will be maintained.
1T Is hard 10 say Just when can inaugu-
| rate active work in pushing the plan, as
| much depends upon the date we get our de-
| cision from the Supreme Court. We are
| pushing matters as fast as possible. and
have been doing all the preliminary work
we can. Some of the counties do not seem
inclined to wait upon this commission: bu:
| it would be much preferable if all could be
| organized after the same general plan and
] they viii find, II they do, that their own
| work, and ours, too, will be more easily
accomplished. There are other details Of
the proposed plan that are not yet settled
and will be able to say more about them in
1 day or sc"
