Gets Idea From Dream.
Miss Nelson says that her duty to-
carry ont this work was FIRST revealed
TO her IN dream in which many an
gels were standing around her bed
BY the side Of the bed was large
basket from which one Of ne angels
was handing parcels TO the other an
gels The last package was handed
60 Miss Nelson and proved to be fne
cut of sir,oln steak, Of which she is
very fond Tho angel said it was
symbolic OF the good she must and
could do to mankind Miss Nelson
did no think she was equal to the
task. but repeated reverses in the
musical line and much observation
convinced her that she must make the
attempt.
Miss Nelson believes tina, ignorance
is the cause Of an wrong conditions
il the society of Today and that scien-
t,dc education will remove them. The
new trust will teach its members
that all that is true in religion. in
philosophy. in science AID mental
thought is in accordance with the law
of he Creator and that mans own ig-
norance is all that has kept him from
seeing this truth up to the present
time. The law Of cause and effect
is to be the me hod of proof employed
by the stockholders who will attempt
to deponstrate that if one gets high
elough in he spiri ual life or high
enough in the scientific life it will be
found that truth in both is the same.
They will dispute no religion, bus they
will try raise people so that they
can see that the truth in metaphysics,
in spin ualism, in mysticism, in relig-
ion, in Christian and mental science is
one and the same.
viii Teach Religious Theories.
Miss Nelson says "We hope 10
change all he underlying conditions
in the world by proving the law Of
predestination and how it works We
shall prove why It is hat one man
is murderer and another a genius
From history we shall prove that the
law of predes ination acts in the op-
posite direction to that stated by all
present theories. We shall prove that
unborn generations are unconsciously
predestined 10 evil through the ignor-
ance Of their ancestors.
when people know and understand
the facts in regard to this criminals
will become fewer. Through this trust
of ours we hope to change individual
characters and by hat means general
conditions in society. We believe that
the attitude of mems minds is the first
cause of predestination and hat they
are thereforet in need of this educa
tion. Because men have this peculiar
power ald because they are the voters
and run the world we are going tc
star a mems branch along the same
lines"

federate Veterans. Everything " itch
could 10 anyway have added to th7 en-

iDated by the members OF the camp

fair proved to be eminently successful

FIRE WARDEN5.-A meeting OF
the Board OF Fire Wardens was neid
last night at which the usual routine
business connected with the depart.
ment was transacted. Mr.. +. J. PollsIo
was awarded the contract for furnlsn-
ing feed for the next three months.
A petition was received IRON tne
| Columbia Company asking the board 10
furnish six pew beds and bedding ior
the accommodation of members VINO
nav be kept up late at hres ana VINO
do not find IL convenient to retorn 10
their homes until morning, The ward
ems, while approving the petition, did
not feel authorized to make the pur-
chase and referred the matter to the
City Council.
A petition was also received from the
Columbia Company asking the return
to tina company OF certain fixtures be-
longing to the engine which will not
bs needed by the company which 10
repair the apparatus. The contract
with the Seneca Company was read
and it wae determined to return to the
Columbia Company such articles as
would not be used In rebuilding the APP
paratus. II was thought, however,
that two gauges with the standpips and
cocks would be utilized. The board die
not intend any old material should be
used on the new boiler.
The contract for new plugs and re-
pairs to plugs was awarded to mr. }.
d. Hughes.
1t was decided to notify the paid
members OF the department that In fu'
ture they must refrain from interfering
with the board or of criticising 1t 10 its
action concerning matters which shall
come before 1t.
1t seems that most of the members OF
the Columbia Company preferred La
France boiler, as it Is claimed steam
can be generated in it quicker than in
that to be furnished by the Seneca
Company. The wardens say that be-
fore accepting they corresponded
with the officials of the fire departments
of the chief cities of the country and
ascertaiued that the Fox boiler was
best for a fire engine. The board,
therefore, judged it prudent to procure
a boiler from which more service could
be obtained than one in which steam
could be generated quicker but with
less durability.
