A. e. Gibson

In the American Theosophical socl-
ety's headquarters, Lawrence hall, 525
West Fifth street, Mr.. A. E. Gibson
from Portland, Ore, lectured last night
to a large audience upon the subject,
Individuality and Personality. The
speaker said, in part:
To illustrate the relation between the
individuality and the personality with
reference to reincarnation, we may re-.
gard the several days of an earth life
as so many personalities, and the inter-
vening nights as so many physical
deaths. Now it is at once apparent that
the perpetual recurrence of day and
night, as fields for personal activity and
rest stand in a prompt analogy to
what we on earth call life and death.
The difference is merely one of degree,
not of essence, and as the personality
awakens every morning refreshed and
invigorated through the assimilation of
experiences gathered during a passed
by yesterday, SO the individuality de-
scends into matter to pass life on
earth, gaining experience from hard won
mental and moral conquests-from suf-
fering and pain. And as sleep comes to
the tired-out personality, so does its
brother, DEATH" as Shelley terms it,
with it's Devachanic rest, come to the
individuality, merging the latter into
condition of subjectivity, isolated
from any influence which might disturb
or inhibit the assimiliating processes
carried on during this period of rest.
And as morning follows upon night,
so does rebirth follow upon death, when
the individuality returns to earth condi-
tions, where new truths are to be dis
covered, new secrets revealed; and
finally, when the last experience OBJ
tainable upon this earth is won, when
| the material universe and the universe
Of thought have revealed their last mys-
terry. the individuality shall require no
more incarnations, and the instrument
known as the personality will merge
purified into it's divine source. Charged
with a knowledge of revealed universe,
| the individuality gravitates towards
grander, more exalted realms, to enjoy
| in Nirvanic omnfscience the fruition of
| lives spent in the performance Of duty
| and Righteousness.

corruption IL exposed, can we claim we
have q Christian civilization? When
any criminals can make laws and have
bills passed for robbing the country, and
we maintain our civilization is Chris
tian?
The only hope Of the nations is Christ.
Until liberal and orthodox churches and
all haters of churches begin to keep
Christ's sayings in earnest, we shall re-
main Christian in name only. While
there are millions of noble souls, living
Christ's sermon on the mount as lights
of the world, yet our corrupt civilization
contradicts any one that says we have

special policeman whom, it was alleged,
Mayor Carson had given permission to wear
star The committee investigated and re
ported to the mayer that the undesirable
p-r7Jn was II. II. Carbee and that he was
wearing star and carrying a long gun in
the neighborhood Of the transfer. The mayor
declared that he had never appointed Carbee,
but had given him permission to act as pri-
vGte watChmaE upon the request Of several
citizens. Tho mayer asserted that If Carbee
was wearing a star that it was without any
authority. He ordered the police to take
Cafbeo's tin star from him and to arrest
him If he was found wearing it again. All
Of the special policemen the mayor has re-
Gently appointed have compiled with all of

correct pronunciation of the word
"Machete." Is 1t ma a-sneet," "ma-shee-
tay." ''machet." or "matchet-tay?" If it
isn't any of these, what is it? In order to
settle the matter, T. b. Hughes, the men S
outfitter, at AIS Broadway, has decided to
offer prize to the person who first sends
in the word marked so as to indicate the
proper pronunciation. Superintendent Hisey
will be asked to act as judge in the contest.
