DIR. FRoST's LECTURE.
There was large attendance last
evening at the lecture given at the Bap,
tist church on the subject of Christian
Science by DR.. Frost OF San Bernardino.
The doctor took the ground that Chris
tian science is not only un-Christian but
unscientific, and invited any Christian
scientist who might be present to come
forward and test their belief in the con-

dose of prussic acid. The invitation
was responded to by Mr.. Townsend of

remarks. expressed willingness to take
the dose, but the doctor declined to adj
minister it. There will be another iec-
ture on the same subject next Tuesday
evening.
