MAINE NEWS ITEMS.

The State Association of Maine Coal
dealers held their semi annual session
in Auburn, March 23d. The utmost
secrecy was maintained by all the Off
GERS and members.
The sundry civil appropriation bill
contains these items for Maine: Ram
Island lighthouse, $4,000; repairing
foundation Bangor custom house, Sc,
900; repairs at Craig Brook fish station
and improvement water supply, $4,000;
completion fish hatchery at BOothbay
Harbor, $4,000.
The State railroad tax this year, it is
estimated, will be about $4,000, if
anything little more, which is over
100000 in excess of that of the last
two years. This shows in most graft
flying manner the Increased business
which our Maine railroads are doing,
and is splendid index to the general
progress and prosperity of the State.
The work of examining into the af-
fairs of the State bank and trust asso-
Citations was begun last week in Saco
by Hon. T. E. Timberlake, State bank
examiner, and his assistant. There
are 81 savings banks, 35 loan and build

CARELESS of the temperature and made
riding in hot weather penance more
than a pleasure. Now the shirtwaist
may be worn on the horse as much as on
the Wheel English women have follow
ed the example of Americans in this
respect and the old basque waist and
the high hat have disappeared together,
except for stately occasions. Even in
the Park smart looking women may be
seen riding horseback in shirt waists
and soft outing hats.
Also they may be seen wearing divid-
ed skirts and riding astride. Not so
much in New York, perhaps, as any
where else, although even in New York
the new fashion finds adherenis. But

CAL All over the country the fashion
is increasing and with it will come "a
big change in the riding habit. Even
where the side saddle is still used the
skirt is only long enough to cover the
feet and is great contrast to the Old
sweeping skirt that almost touched the
ground. The divided skirt must be
made with great pains and here again
| the good tailor is an essential. Ii the
skirt is not right it is likely to be hor-
ror and it is almost better for woman
to refrain from riding altogether than
to go in skirt SO poorly made that she
both looks and feels unsightly.
There is no fear that the taste for
athletics is by way of rendering women
| careless of the daintiness of their ap-
pearance. Because they dress in a
| fashion that makes delicate arrange
ments of chiffon and tulle out of place
they have not renowned pomps and
vanities. There are all sorts OF neck
gear made with especial reference to
| their outdoor occupations and the
tailor made girl who goes in for athlet-
| les of all sorts is as fussy about her
stocks and her collars and her ties as
ever was her mother over jabots and
lace. The girl who rides a wheel or
plays golf or tennis has offered to her
serviceable wash stocks, the Ascot be-
ing the favorite, as rule. These are
made in plain and figured materials, in
white or coors. The linen collar,
which went almost entirely out OF use
for while, is in again, but now 1t IS
usually in the form of little turn
over, embroidered or plain. With this
is worn silk or ribbon stock. All
that is demanded of the neck gear is
that it should be simple and service
able as we'll as becoming The cost OF
the stocks and collars and turnovers
may be great or small, as the girls
purse permits and her taste inclines.
But she can look as well in an mex
pensive stock as in the highest priced
confection of a fashionable haber-
dasher.

cusses Religion of Mary Baker G. Eddy
and Her Numerous Followers
[Denver, Col, Republican, March 18th.
Rev. David Utter at Unity church
yesterday morning took ''Chrstian Sci
ence" as his subject. He said in part
The Christian Scientists have won
the right to be recognized among the
latest of Christian sects. 1t may be
they do not aspire to the distinction of
being called sect, but would prefer to
be considered simply the Church of
Christ. This preference, however, is
common to several denomination of
Christians, no one of which ought rea-
sonably to expect to be considered the

thesis it is the important word, the
distinguishing term.
Scientist" from literary point of
view, is mongrel word that ought
never to have come into use. Like the
word ''evOlute," it is linguistic abom-
ination. However, if it must be used
Pm better pleased that the Christian
Science people should have it than that
it should be applied to such scientific
men as Darwin and Agassiz.
Christian Science was discovered and
founded by Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy,
according to her own claims and decia-
rations. Critics have noted a contra
diction in Mrs. Eddy's use of these two
words, saying that if thing is discov-
cred it must have been founded pre-
viously, and that one could hardly be
founder of what she discovered Mrs.
Eddy, however, claims that she discov-
cred Christian Science in 1866 and
named it Christian Science, and began
teaching it the next year at Lynn,
Mass. She founded her metaphysical
college in Boston in 1881 and closed it
in 1889. During these eight years she
taught some 1000 students in this in
stitution, founded the First Church of
Christ, Scientist, in Boston, and the
Christian Science Journal, and was
president of the first Christian Science
association. From this record she
seems to have been founder of sew
eral things pertaining to Christian Sci
ence if she did not found it.
CRITICS SAY THAT QUIMBY WAS THE
REAL DIsCOvERER.

of Christian Science are really inter-
ested in showing that she has no valid
claim to either title. They say that the
real discoverer of metaphysical healing
was Phineas P. Quimby of Belfast in
the State of Maine, and that Mrs. Eddy
is only one of his many followers, and
that she has shown disposition to
claim more than her dues in the
matter.

number of years, being specially in

Mr., and Mrs. John Francis Cross Obsery
Their Golden Wedding.

On Wednesday afternoon at their
home on Twentyeighth street and
Thirteenth avenue, MI and Mrs. John
Francis Cross held reception in honor
of the fiftieth anniversary of their mar
riage, having been welded on March
10th, 1854, in Belfast, Maine, their ma
tive State.
Friends from Sacramento, Stockton
and San Jose, as we'll as from San Fran
cisco, Oakland, Alameda and Berkeley
came to offer C, ngratulations and them
wishes for continued happiness of the
genial couple.
The home was most beautifully deco
rated i'll colors appropriate, the rich
California poppy prtdomlnating among
the ferns and smilaX i'll the parlors, hall
and dining room, While blossoms i'll pa
er gold carried cut the color scheme in
the library.
Mr.. and Mrs Cross were the recip-
tents of many handsome gifts, beauti-
full and touching letters from absent
friends and congIatulatory kilograms.
At the wedding dinner preceding the
reception, every member of the family
was present. They include: Mr.. and
Mrs. d. F. McArthur of Oakland, Mr..
and Mrs. sam J Pullen of Auburn, Lii
liam A. Cross, My and Mrs. r. H. Cross,
Mr.. and Mrs. c. W. Cross, and five
grand children.
In happy after dinner speech, the
family presented Mr.. Cross with an
elegant gold headed cane and Mrs.
Cross with an exquisite pin.
Among the few couples who are al
lowed to spend half century together,
this bride and groom of fifty years ago
are to be especially congratulated, since
more than usual joys have been their
lot. They both enjoy excellent health
and look forward to many years OF hap
piness with each other and their family
ana many friends. Oakland, Calf, En-
quirer, March 10th.
John Francis Cross and Sarah Jane
Meservey were both born and grew up
in Waldo county ard were married in
Belfast, March Is, 1854, by the Rev.
Cazneau Palfrey, pastor of the Unitar-
ian church. Mr. Cross writes that The
Journal was the friend of their child
hood and that they may still have a
few friends in Waldo county who would
like to readof their golden wedding.

him treatment for her infirmities. Dr..
Quimby had been mesmerist, but had
given up dependence upon that for
healing-if he ever used it for that pur-
pose. He was practicing a kind of
silent cure. it is said, and in his first
circular in Portland he asserted that
Truth is the cure"
| Mrs. Eddy came and was healed by
DR.. Quimby, according to existing
letters of hers, and there is docu-
mentary evidence that she lectured in
his behalf, defending him from charges
of healing by mesmerism or by the
power of Spirits that she called herself
, his pupil, and was both an enthusiastic
and loyal disciple of his. He died in
1866, the year in which she says she
discovered metaphysical healing and
named it Christian Science
| The story that has gone about for a
! good many years that Mrs. Eddy was
as such she wrote a book containing
his system of philosophy and practice
| of healing, which book she kept and
afterward gave to the world as her own
in Science and Health,' seems to be
| entirely false.
Science and Health" is undoubtedly
| Mrs. Eddy's own production.
She may have got her Unitarian the
ology from DR.. Quimby, or from DR..
Charming, what does it matter? Both
Unitarianism and the sort of healing
that now goes under the name of Chris
tian Science were old when Mrs. Eddy
discovered them and wrought them to-
gether into her system. The third ele-
ment in her system, called idealism in
philosophy, is like PlatOniSm, and still
more nearly identical with the idealism
of Bishop Berkeley, but what does it
matter where she picked it up. For
one reason only have mentioned her
supposed obligations to Dr. Quimby-
she was his disciple once, and seems
unwilling to acknowledge it now. And
the reason for this unwillingness seems
to be wish to magnify the Importance
of her discovery, and her own original
ity, or what is worse, to make it seem
that what she learned in natural way
was received by means of special divine
inspiration.
Whether we consider Christian Sci
ence as a great system of truth, or a
great delusion, or as commingling of
truth and delusion, it is certain that
there is nothing new in it, nothing
originally discovered by Mrs. Eddy,
utltuef Ill Ille Way VI philosophy. IneOl-
ogy, nor healing. And her system is
neither worse nor better for being old.
That which to most people seems new
and startling in Mrs. Eddy's system is
the underlying philosophy. The ideal
ism of Plato and Berkeley was never
anywhere so popularized, SO taken into
the thought of the common people, as
it has been in this country in Christian
Science.
Christian Science religiously and
theologically is Unitarian. rejoice in
the work and influence of Christian
Science as religion. 1t is a popular
ization of the doctrines of charming,
such as we regular Unitarians never
achieved, but such as we have been
predicting and hoping for now for near
ly century.
The Christian Science movement has
rationalized the theology and deepened
the religious life of tens of thousands
of good people in this country. will
