WHAT OF CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

WHAT OF CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Is it potential force in our rellg-
ious development as a nation ? Shall
it one day enroll majority of
Christian people among its followers
These are practical questions of
gravest public and indlyidual import
II THE JOURNAL has rendered any
service IN this community,it has been
by forcing discussion along new lines
OF thought and compelling people to
think and discuss from new stand
points in public affairs. So we take
pleasure in giving space TO presenta-
tion Of Christian Science in this issue
by one OF its students. Whether
there shall be more extended presen-
tation OF cause that has already
gained many adherents in Oregon de-
pends upon the demands Of our
readers, as we have no desire To force
a propaganda for any select
class or carry on a religious
controversy with anyone. This paper
is at the service o; the people aud Its
only aim Is to reach the largest mum.
ber for the greatest good. That Is
the highest mission Of any educator.
be he teacher, editor. or preacher.
If enough of our readers will kindly
read and discuss the paragraphs and
news selected for them from the Of
fetal publication of the Christian
Scientists published elsewhere, we
shall be glad to receive their critic
ism or approval, for private digestion
or publication, and be guided by their
wishes In the future. There is always
possibility that the truth in any
field has not been exhausted, and
especially In the domain Of religion.
AS IL appears TO us, and we have obs
served closely, Christian Science has
passed consplciOusly near to the
third stage of Professor AgassiZ's
progress of reforms. 1t is be
coming too popular with the masses
TO be treated with dlsdain by would
be leaders in the world of religious
thought. It. is about TO enter the
stage of wide spread presentation by
popular lectures. This great and
undoubtedly potential truth Of divine
healing OF sickness as well as sin is
now 10 be subjected TO the crucial test
of worldwide adaptability and accep
liability by the millions. The mill
ions are prepared TO receive higher
type OF Interpretation and practical
demonstration OF spiritual truth, and
1t has never been more clearly formu-
lated than in Christian Science.
The wonderful leadership of Mrs.
Mary Baker Eddy cannot be denied
by those who have made careful ex-
animation. IL remained for the new
world TO produce new religious
leader, and she has established herself
behind bulwark of patient research
In history aud metaphysical science

attacks are no longer made upon the
strength Of her position from phil /
osophical STANDPOINT, upon her per-

giving space today TO a cause that in |

So nor more than $40.
This action Of the Commissioners. 1t was
stated in The Star last week, would be
taken, their attention having been called
to the fact that the minimum penalty was
fine of $40 when Star reporter induced
them to pardon little boy who had been
sentenced to the workhouse in default Of
a fine of $40. The Commissioners then ex-
pressed much surprise that the minimum
penalty was great, and also expressed
determination to materially reduce the PEN
atty. Judge Scott of the Police Court also
believed that the penalty should be greatly
reduced, and in a communication to the
Commissioners suggested that 1t be made a
fine of not less than 81 nor more than $40.
The Commissioners referred the matter to
Police Captain Austin, the acting chief of
police, who reported that in his opinion it
would be inadvisable to make the mimi
mum penalty S.. Captain Beach, the En-
gineer Commissioner, favored minimum
penalty of 81, but his associates. Commits
sioners Wight and Ross, did not SO agree,

Charges Against Policemen.

There were two policemen, Rout and
Banagan of the eighth precinct, before
Trial Judge Pugh yesterday on charges of
alleged violations of rules of the manual.
Sergeant Jones was the complainant. In
the case of officer Rout, it was alleged he
had neglected his duty the morning of
June 25. and had failed to turn in from
a patrol box at 4 o'clock. The defense was
that he was watching for milk thieves.
Many complaints had been received at the
station regarding the theft of milk and 1t
vas because of his efforts to apprehend
some of them that he failed to report.
1t was charged that Policeman Banagan
had endeavored to shield mis- brother Of
ficer by turning in for him. The question
referred to the trial judge for settlement
was what was said by Officer Banagan
over the wire. The officer duty at the
station said all he heard was "Rout." In
bis own defense Officer Banagan said he
asked: Where is Rout?''
A young man named William Hall tes-
titled that he standing at the box
and heard Banagan ask: Where is

this.

ARREST NOT JUSTIFIED.
Decision Of Judge Scott I'm Case of
Alleged Assault.

After the close of the report of yester-
days proceedings in the Police Court, as
printed in The Star of last evening, Judge
Scott tried Daniel Mumford, colored. on the
charge of assaulting Policeman L. ]. Bren-
nan of the eighth precinct.
The evidence of the policeman was that
Monday evening last, shortly before dark,
he heard Mumford cursing ard swearing
in loud voice on 9th street above L street
northwest. He proceeded, he said, to take
Mumford into custody, but as soon as the
latter was informed he was under arrest
he struck Brennan in the head with his
fist and knocked him down. Brennans
partner, Officer Murphy, then came up and
also took hold of Mumford. The prisoner
resisted and Brennan struck him over the
head with his billy, inficting bad wound.
Mr.. Pugh said he had noticed Mumford
in the custody of the officers, but knew
nothing of the cause of the arrest.
A cloud Of witnesses, all of the most re-
spectacle appearance, summoned by MIR.
Fountain Peyton, who defended the ac-
cused, swore that they saw Mumford
standing at the place above designated and
he was acting in the most orderly manner.
Presently he was approached by Officers
Brennan and Murphy. The former asked
Mumford about fight which had occurred
shortly before, farther up the street Num-
ford answered that he did not know any
thing whatever about the affair, whereupon
Brennan struck Mumford over the head
several times With his billy. At this point
Mumford tried to defend himself, where
upon Murphy also struck Mumford with
his billy Mumford would have fallen to
the pavement had he not been held up by
the officers, who started with their pris-
oner toward the U street station. After
walking about fifty yards or so one of the
officers, it was testified, tripped Num- 1rd
and threw him to the pavement.
By this time an immense crowd had ,ol-
lected and one or two men offered to as list
the officers in getting Mumford to the S "a
ton, fearing, they said. If something was
not done in that direction Mumford would
be killed by the policemen.
Mumford's head presented a shocking ap-
pearance, having several long and deep
cuts upon it, from which he had lost
large amount of blood
Judge Scott reviewed the evidence in the
case at length. saying he could see no justi-
fication for the assault by the officers, and
dismissed Mumford from custody.
