Rev. D. Dharmapala Is
Here From Calcutta,
India.
Will Deliver Lectures on The
osophy, Philosophy and
Religion.
USsS Scholarly English and Accepts
No Money in His Life's
Work.

A dusky Buddhist priest from Calcutta
India, attired in the picturesque yellow
silken toga peculiar 10 his high religious
Office, arrived here yesterday, and viii re-
main FIVE weeks, delivering philosophical
discourses at the different churches, and
telling something OF the teachings of the
ancient religion which. partly through his
efforts, is now being restored to India
after long oblivion.
His name is H. Dharmapala, and he
was off cial representative of the Bud
dhists to the worlds parliament of reli-
gions in Chicago during the fair.
Of high culture and intellectual bearing.
he is a man who at once impresses his
hearers with feeling that with many
such men in India there would be little
need for missionaries. He uses English
with the ease and skill of one accustomed
TO and educated in the language from
childhood, and yet he is a foreigner who
speaks other languages as welt
He has come here primarily upon the
invitation of Golden Gate Branch The
osophIcal Society.
And res especting the India relief meas
ures, he has plan to suggest. Let those
here and in London who are raising funus
to send on corn telegraph at once to South
ern India, where corn in plenty is stored,
asking that it be Immediately shipped 10
the northern districts, the English ana
American contributors guaranteeing to
reim burse the granaries. By the tedious
means of transportation across the seas,
thousands will have died before relief
arrives.
The following Sunday evening lectures
will be given by Rev. Mr.. Dnarmapala in
Native Sons building for the Golden
Gate Branch Theosophical Society:
February 28-"Buddhlsm and Christianity"
March 7-"Brahmans and Buddh1stic Tran
scendental Science"
March 14-"Religions OF India"
March 21-"What Is Theosophy ?"
March 2S-"Future OF Christianity in Asia"
Gate Branch in Native Sons building
upon theosophy.
Aside from these occasions he is open TO
all engagements TO speak at other times
on Sundays and on weekdays.
II should like" he said, ''to give my
message through various Christian |
churches IN this City, in Oakland and in |
Alameda, but l shall lecture on whatever
subject is preferab BILE TO my audience.
From here l shall go to Boston. |
shall lecture there at Harvard University
and in Maine, and also at Baltimore.
"In August l shall pass through here
on my way to China.
Next year purpose to explore Thibet,
a land sacred to Theosophisls. 1t is, you
know, the only country where missiona-
ries have not penetrated. l wish very
much to go TO see the country and to bring
back a true account of that country of
mystery, from which all explorers have
been turned back after going Just so far.
1t is believed TO be the home, the school,
of occult philosophy. In its capital of
Lhassa there is great temple, in which

and chant sacred songs and invoke bless

scene.

after hve years struggle, the Maba- Bodi
Temple, about 200 miles from Calcutta.
For 700 years the Brahmans held posses
sion OF 1t. 1t was restored after big and
sensational lawsuit in Calcutta, which
cost the alleged owner $4,000 to defend
his claim and attempt to prove that it was
Hindoo ten sle. Its possession has
brought fame 10 its alleged proprietor, for
all the tourists that visited it also called
upon him. Possession is only partly re-
stored. but in that temple now controlled
by the Government the Buddnists have
one sacred foothoid in India.
"Sumangala, the high priest of Bud
dhism, who resides in Ceylon, is one of the
cleverest Oriental scholars now living.
He is an honorary member of the Royal
Aslatic Society, which implies the very
highest scholastic honor. He is also
president of the Maha-Bodh Society.

Heavy Odds.
The case Of the state against Asa Sad
and it is one OF the most interesting
cases of the session. Sadler, who Is a
drayman at Clearwater, is charged with
= breaking into his own house and robbing
on the witness stand yesterday before
the court and a GREATNESS audience Of
nlen and women from Clearwater IS as
follows in substance:
In the latter part Of last December
: Sadler came to him and wanted his
services TO aid in apprehending some I'M
known person who entered his house
ard stole from him $40, from the toe of
MS wife's slipper 50 and from the trunk
Of a barber who was boarding and lodg-
Ing at their house $500. He told Sutton
that he suspected boy named Bentley
o. this city and a Clearwater chum. He
had Sutton to arrest the boys, or at least
search them, but none of the money was
found with than. Mr.. Sutton promised
- investigate the case still farther. In
The meantime the mayor of Clearwater
offered a reward Of S25 for the appre-
henson OF the criminal An additional
reward was offered by the barber
A few days after this Officers Sutton
and Wood of this city went down to
Clearwater 10 investigate the case at
that end of the line. and after little
examination of the premises Mr. Sutton
charged SIR. Sadler with the robbery.
Mr.. Sailer was Of course surprised, but
when ne found that Sutton traced him
To a gambling house of this city where
ne spent some money, from there to 9TH
er sporting places where he spent GER
tain sums of money for beer, from there
TO fruit stand where he exhibited a
certain amount Of money, from there 10
another place where he converted ten
silver dollars into paper and from there
- the depot as he went home and ex-
hIbitee at that time more money than he
said he had in his possession when he
arrived in town, Mr.. Ssdler threw up his
hands and said: Boys. you nave got
me. what can do to settle this mat
Ter?' The testimony IS that ne paid
back the money to the barber, that SUIT
Ton and Wood got $50 each as a reward
for their services and that there was
some sort Of an understanding that he
would not be prosecuted. Notwithstand-
ing the understanding IN question a
warrant for his arrest was sworn out by
Mayor Chandler of Clearwater, he was
arrested and is now on trial. Wall &,
Brooks are making a hard fight for him.
The evidence OF state is not all in Vet.
The case will be resumed Monday. Half
she town of Clearwater is attending
the proceedings.
