CHICAGO'S NEW
SCIENTIST CHURCH

Chicago, April S-Probably 10000
persons participated yesterday in the
dedication of the Second Church of
Christ, scientist, ut WrightwoOd and
Pine Grove avenues. So great was the
assemhlage that quadruple service
WAS held After the first service the
side doors We're opened and the audi
ence passed out while another group of
worShiIcrs entered through the front
doors and participated in II repetition
of the service. Twice more the cere-
monial was repeated to audiences SIM
ilarly admitted ana still crowds lin
gered about the church eager TO get in.
The salutatory address was delivered
by Reader Bicknell Young, after
which the following greeting from
Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy was read:
MY Beloved Brethren-Your card of
invitation to this feast of soul was
duly received-accept my thanks.
"Ie sit not in the idols temple. We
build not to an unknown God. Ye wOr-
ship him whom ye serve. Boast not
thyself, thou ransomed Of divine love,
but press on unto the possession of un-
burdened bliss, raise the living dead,
cast out fashionable lunacy.
''The ideal robe Of Christ is seamless.
Thou hast touched its hem and art be-
ing healed The risen Christ is thine.
The haunting mystery and gloom of
his glory rule not this century. Thine is
the upspringing hope, the conquest over
sin and mortality that lights the liv
ing way to life, not death.
MAY the God of our fathers, the
Infinite Person whom we worship, be
and abide with you; may the blessings
of divine love rest with you. My
heart hOvers around your churches in
Chicago for the dove of peace sits
smlingly on these branches and sings
of our Redeemer."
Congratulatory kilograms from Ed
ward A. Kimbail of Boston and other
Christian Scientists of prominence in
all parts Of the world We're also read
from the chancel at each service.
The church. including the ground
upon which it stands, cost the society
about S12O,OO0.

CONCERNING IMPERIAL

The high water had no effect upon the work of the Imperial Canal Company and water is flowing in the great ditch for more than twenty-five miles. The town of Imperial is already as- suming urban airs. IL now has telephone line to Flowing Wells on the Southern Pacific railroad, d church and d S5OOO school building, and d number of other structures are to be erected designed for business and resi- dcnce uses.
 The above paragraph was sent in to the Los Angeles papers by a Yuma correspondent. In some respects 1t is misleading. Water IS flowing through the canals to the center ot the valley, dis tancc of more than seventy miles. We have not yet the S5OOO school building, but II is among the next structures to bc erected

A CALiFoRNIAN by adoption rises up in his enthusiasm and asks: What is the use of having d hades while Chicago is on the map" The tcrrors of the wcs- tern deserts are absolutely nil when ordinary precautions are taken in the way of water supply, q small amount of the fluid sui ticing for the comparative com fort of the traveller and inSurirg him completely from any danger from the effects of the sun; but when the conditions of tcmpcra- ture are as they are now in the East, there are no prcvcntatives against the fatal. or at least pros trating effects of the heat, even with the use of all known pre- cautionary measures. It then becomes fair question to ask which is the more preferable as a place of residence, Chicago or the Colorado dcsertE - West Tn Graphic.
 There is little doubt but that  the weather in Chicago is by far more oppressive than it is in this, the mis-callcd Colorado desert. It is not unbearable here with the temperature at 20, while 20 in Chicago is very dangerous, and many people die from pros- tration.

Fl Paso Herald: The horse epidemic in New York still rages. IL may be yelled blessing, although the truck owners say the veil is bit thick, be- cause it will tend to accelerate the sub stitution of motor vehicles, change which is bound to come some time. X general attack of "epizooty," like that which ran around the country in '72 or thcrcabouts, would cause every body to use gasoline motors in lieu of hay burners. All of which would tend to the advantage of the northern steel works, and to the detrimcnt of Texas pastures. until Texas becomes a great state. And maybe that will be one of the things which will come along to give us a hoist into the current of progress. We have iron of our own down here, and coal oil and gasoline to burn, and there is no reas- on why we shouldn't manufacture horse substitutes other than mules.

Protest Against the New Dispensary.

Wednesday afternoon a paper endors-
ing the action taken by City Council
in respect to the establishment Of
another dispensary and protesting in
the name of the citizens of Sumter
against the action of the County
Board of Control was circulated and
more than 175 signatures secured.
Only few-not a half dozen-of those
to whom the paper was presented re-
fused to sign it, and it is safe to say
that ninety-fve per cent of the citi-
zens of Sumter would sign it had they
the opportunity of doing so. The
writer has never known such una
nimity Of opinion respecting any ques-
tion in which the people of Sumter
were interested. They all with a few
exceptions condemn the proposition
to establish another dispensary and
none are outspoken in favor of it.
The people are agreed that another
dispensary is unnecessary and will, if
established, be hurtful to the com
munity instead of beneficial Feeling
as they do they have united in re-
spectful request to the County Board
of Control to rescind the action taken
at the special meeting on Monday, and
it is hoped that when the petition is
presented to the County Board of Con-
troll tomorrow that body will see fit to
rescind its action and make no further
attempt to establish another dispen-
sary in this city.

They Want a Dispensary.

a petition to the County Board of
Control was circulated Thursday after
noon endorsing the action of the board
in ordering the establishment of an
other dispensary in this city and re
questing the board to have the new
dispensary located on upper Main
Street. The writer has not seen the
petition but is informed that among
other things it sets forth the belief of
the petitioners that the location Of a
dispensary on upper Main Street
would enhance the value of property
in its vicinity at least 80 per cent.
The petition was not as generally
signed by any means as the protest
against the proposal to establish the
dispensary, but it is stated that some
thing more than 25 names were affix-
ed to the petition, most o* them busi-
ness men and property owners on Main
Street, north of the Court House.
