CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CLAIMS.
Mrs. Eddy Puts Forth a Statement
Regarding Them.

Concord, n. H., June S.-Recent
claims that Ralph Waldo Emerson Is
the author Of Christian Science have
called forth the following statement
from Mary Baker c. Eddy:
ITO whom 1t may concerns ! was ear
ly the pupil Of Miss Sarah j. Bodwell
the principal Of Sanbornton academy
of New Hampshire. anu finished my
course of studies under Prof. Dyer H.,
sanborn, author of Sanborn's Gram
mar Among my early studies were
Comstocks Natural Philosophy, Chem

years wrote for the best magazines in
the south and north ! have lectured In
large and crowded halls az New York
City, Chicago, Boston Portland and at
Wateryille college, and have been in
yited to lecture at London and Edin-
burgh.
In 1888 / started the Christian
Science Journal, and for several years
was the proprietor and sole editor OF
that journal. In 1899 Judge S. J, Hanna
became editor Of the Christian Science
Journal and for ten subsequent years
he knew my ability as an editor. In his
recent lecture at Chicago he said Mrs,
Eddy is from every point OF view. a
woman Of cound education and liberal
culture.
"Agasslz, the celebrated naturalist
and author, wisely said. Every great
scientific truth goes through three
stages. First people say 1t conflicts
with the Bible; next. they say II has
been discovered before. Lastly, they
say they have always believed It,
THE first attack upon me was-Mrs,
Eddy misinterprets the Scriptures; sec
ond she has stolen the contents Of her
book Science and Health. with Key to
the Scriptures, from one u, +. Quimby,
an obscure. uneducated man. and he Is

In Absence of District Attorney Eichnor Raises Question:

attorney and that he understood that
there will be a test case made Of this
matter so as TO settle the law on mat
point and for that reason the county at
torney should be permitted TO be pres
ent.
The jury then returned TO the jury
room and commenced its investigations
of the Luke collection agency case. The
records OF Justice KrOeger's court In
which the Luke's did most Of their
business, were taken into the
jury room by Deputy city
Recorder Simondi and were thoroughly
examined. Former Justice OF the Peace
Morris Sommer was the first witness
called into the jury room. Sommer has
often scored other justices for their
manner of handling the Luke cases,and
Il Is believed that he is an important
witness in this case The other wit
ness examined this morning was David
Reed, constab Bile OF Pleasant Green pre-
clnct. who served most OF the papers
In legal actions brought by the Lukes
II Is stated that the contention Is
made that, during the absence OF the
district attorney, the attorney general
OF the state should be placed In charge
OF the grand jury instead of the county
attorney. Should an indictment be re-
turned by the jury In any OF the cases
conducted by the county attorney a
test will be made as to his rights IN the
premises.
