SPOKE ON The BIBLE.
Mrs. r. S. Lilies Address Before
the Society of Progressive
Spirituallsts.
The Scriptures, She Says, Support
Spiritua ism and Tell of Its
Phenomena.

The Society of Progressive Spiritualists
held services at Scottish Hall, los Larkin
street, last evening. Mrs. r. s. Lille of
Boston spoke upon THE Bible and Spirit
ualism." She was introduced by Pre- si-
dent Rider and spoke substantially as fol-
lows:
Spiritualists as q rule search everywhere.for
truth and unbind shackles. They treat the
Bible nationally with the mind free on this as
on any other subject The parent church
Catholicism-held In its charge the Bible in
its original form. Its books were written
names are practically unknown. 1t has been
taught that the Bible was the very word of
God. II is now known that it is of human
origin and contains many imperfections.
The Bible, as some one has said is like an
old fiddle, you eau play any tune on it; and
tune. We will take the first few chapters of
the book and find that the first spiritual
seance was the one held.on Mount Sinai 1t
was a slate-writing and trumpet seance. The
law was written on tablets of stone up there
on the mountain amid the thunders and light
ming, by the hand OF Jehovah himself. Spirit
uaism has taught from Its inception that it
was wrong to kill. Human life should be held
sacred and as most precious gift.
Christianity claims TO have done much for
the elevation of woman, and yet 1t teaches
that she is the author OF evil and the source of
sin and death in the world. Spiritualism de-
nies the slander and claims the equality of the
sexes. BY and by we shall know how to rear
children from the foundation so that GRIMM.
ais shall not be born. Jails and prisons will
be vacant and insane asylums tenantless.

D. O. MILLS Is IN TOWN.
The Millionaire Owner of Mills Build
ing and of MiIlbrae Arrives From
New York.


Among the arrivals here yesterday from
the East was D. o. Mills. the millionaire
who founded his fortune in Sacramento,
who has his headquarters in New York,
who is building two large economical ho-
tells in that city, who owns the Mills
building in San Francisco, and who owns
country home in San Mateo County at
Millbrae which is named after him.
Mr.. Mills came here by way of Arizona,
where he spent few days, as is his Gus.
tom, in visiting his son-in-law, Whitelaw
Reid, at his winter home. Mr.. and Mrs.
Reid will shortlT come here to visit at
MilIbrae, where Mr.. Mills will spend his
time until April.
Then he will start on his return to New
York. He will arrive there just about the
time that his large hotel is com pleted and
ready to be opened for the 1900 roomers it
IS designed to accommodate. The sepa-
rate apartments are small, but furnished
with all modern conveniences, including
electric light and artificial heat. They are
intended for men, and together with board
will cost the individual less than so cents
a day, though equaling the accom- moda-
tions TO be had at ordinary hotels. Rooms
will be rented by the month. Mr.. Mills
says that the enterprise is not intended as
moneymaking scheme, but that it will
pay expenses and provide neat sanitary
quarters for men OF small means. Such
hotels, he thinks, would pay expenses in
any large city.
As to the financial outlook, Mr.. Mills
declares that there will be an awakening
