G.. A. r. Council.

| CINCINNATI, o Decem Der 15.-The
national council of the Grand Army of
the republic is in session here today
for the purpose of deciding upon the
date for the next national encamp-
ment, and which in accordance with
the decision of the Buffalo gathering
will be held in this city. At q meet
ing a few days ago of the executive
boards if the local encampment COM
mittee it was decided by q majority
vote to recommend that the epcamD-
ment be held on August 20, 80 and 81,
and September 1, 2. and 3. These
dates were favored on various grounds
signal service for years past indicate
that the last week of August and the
first week of September are Invariably
dry and cool. Again, this period is
after harvest and before fall plOwinR
and hence the event would attract
thousands of farmers that earlier or
later could not leave home. Finally.
the school houses will be In demand
for sleeping Accommodations for the
veterans. and as the state law fixes the
d ate for The opening of the schools and
it can not be changed except by unani-
nous action of the school board, there
is strong argument in favor of an early
epcampment. On the other hand, the
opponents of these dates call attention
to the fact that the national Pytbisn
encampment, occurs at Indianapolis
about the time of the dates proposed
for the CIR and Army encampment, and
insists that the railroads would be
unable to handle the immense crowds
that would be attracted by the two
gatherings. 1t is probable that the
pational officials will accept the dates
submitted by the local committee. The
Cincinr att france committee has al
ready inaueurated it's labors and is
confident of it's ability to raise the
S75. 600 required for the entertainment
of the veterans.

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS.
Because of judge Penneypacker's Ad-
verse Decision Will try Legislation.


| PHILADELPHIA, Pa. December IS
AS result of the recent decision OF
President Judge Penn eypacker, of the
| court of common pleas, refusing to
grant q charter to the First Church of
Christ of Christian Scientists, q bill is
to be introduced in the next session of
legislature amending the laws relating
to schools of medicine so as to admit of
the recognition of the Christian Scien-
lists as a portion of the healing frater-
nifty, although as q distinct sect or co.
ciety, very much as the homeopathists
or eclectics are recognized as distinct
from the allopaths. The decision of
Judge PenDeypacker, which is likely
to be used as text book by the schools
of medicine opposed to Christian
Science in the conflicts that soOn-
er or later are bound to occur
in numerous states, was not arrived at
until he had digested mass of tes-
timony taken before q master in
chancery. During these hearings
many witnesses testified that under no
circumstances would they allow a dec
tor to attend any member of their
family and that even in the case of
triconoss which is caused by animal
culact breeding in the body and feed
ing in the muscles they would depend
upon faith, rather than upon external
means of killing such animalculac or
them harmless. In his de-
cision Judge Penneypacker takes the
ground that Christian Science is a
church rather than a school of medicine
ndinQ Mrs. Eddy's declara-
tiOn that the treatment extends to the
most serious and fatal of disease, aud
hence he holds tina. the treatment of
dis ease by ''t tealers'' of the church for
fees and compensation was in direct
of the law regulating the
practice of medicine.

MORE DISCREET THAN DARING.
Evangelist Martin Heeds q Second
Notice to Leave Florence.

The following dispatch from Flor
euce, Kan, appeared in the Kansas
City Journal of December 8:
Evangelist Martin, who caused
great excitement by his attacks on
citizens, Officials Is. teachers and school
girls, left town on the Kansas City
passenger this evening to avoid almost
ertain violence. Last night he dis
regarded the notification given by the
committee to leave town, and, after the
usual preaching, prayer service with
few of ths faithful in attendance was
ned till nearly morning. Todsy
County Attorney Dickenson was called,
by Martins request, and, after con-
ference, in which the evangelist was
roundly scored by him, Mr. Dickenson
promised him support. Martin sent
matters to the persons whom he had
villified, but they would accept moth
ing but a personal apology. This Mar
tin refused to make.
"During the afternoon. message
was received from Dodge City request
ing the citizens to tar ard featb er
Martin. This added to the ex ,itemept
already prevailing, and word was sent
to the sheriff. who Immediately orde =
tie disperse all mObs, to arrest anyone
guilty of violence, and to call upon all
loyal citizens for cid.
THE message came too late. At 5
O'Clock citizens to the number of fifty
went in a body to the house where
Martin was staying and demanded
that he leave town in thirty minutes,
as they could not longer hold in check
the rougher element, which was be-
coming worked up to q high pitch of
excitement. Martin decided to 90,
and was escorted to the train by about
100 citizens to protect him. He took
the train for Emporia. Everything
cit Is rumored that Martin will re-
turn in few days and prosecute the
city authorities and business men for
damages for his enforced. sudden de-
