Annual Report Tells of increasing Architecture
 Sometimes Suggests Society's Desire to Be Known "pifferent."

clusion; but as her recreation is daily drive. glimpse of her may be had in the carriage as she leaves the grounds of an afternoon
 She certainly has made most charm ing place of Pleasant view, personally directing much of the work of improve ment. Noble trees, lawns. rose gardens and shrubberfes surround her house; trim orchards, substantial barns, culti- vated fields attest to the thrift and or derliness ruling there. Mrs. Eddy may be dreamer; she is also worker. She is said to be a woman of fine presence. of the New England type
 She is now almost four-score years old, but sends forth messages to the church from her quiet home. She has led very busy life. has been a method ical worker. There are accredited to her the following works-"Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures" ''Retrospection and IntrospectioD; :" Unity of Good and Unreality of Evii;;" Peoples Idea of God;" Christian Healing" "Rudimental Divine Sci ence;" "No and Yes" Christ and Christmas Pulpit and Press" Church Manual Of the First Church of Christ, Scientist" Miscellaneous Writings" Christian Science Versus Pantheism."
 Statistics of 1903 give the number of Christian Science churches in the Unit cd States as 559-surely these figures are large for denomination so recently founded. A writer in the New England Magazine. discussing Christian Science architecture, says: "A denomination only 9 years of are and neither large in numbers nor unusually wealthy. has been able with apparent ease to con- struct such vast army Of edifces at an expense ranging from S30. GOO to s1. .0t0,- GOO. The magnificent and substantial buildings which have been erected by the Christian Science movement. and which have been dedicated free from debt, mark vital interest in the under taking which has perhaps not been par alleled by any other religious society of it's age in the history of the world" That saving perhaps" leads us to quote these words.
 No one will deny that the church growth, in both senses Of the word. of Christian Science is remarkable. The mother" church. which was built in 1894, cost something like s250,000 The First Church of Chris. Scientist, in New York, has an auditorium considered by architects one of the finest in the coun- try. This structure, built of Concord granite, cost s1.1s5, 000, the whole cost paid before it's dedication, in November, 1903. New York's Second church also cost goodly sum. over $500 900.
 In Chicago the Scientists First church has seating capacity of 1500. and in this city a Second and Third church have been built. a Fourth and a Fifth are in process Of erection. Minneapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City. and Denver have magnificent Christian Science churches. Concerning the character of the numer- ous houses of worship built by tho fol- lowers of Mrs. Eddy. this explanation is presented: As to exteriors. some of the Christian Scientist churches have held to the Gothic and Romanesque styles of architecture, with the tall

Another FrightfuI Storm,

Moscow, Dec. "a, p m.-Artlllery,
rifles and revolver firing continues
throughout the day. but the noise of
the battle has now somewhat abated.
The guns have been bombarding one
-baYicade after another, the cannonade
being followed by charges by the Dra-
goons who set fire to the debris.
The area of the lighting today was
more extended.
The revolutionaries apparently have
not in the least lost heart, notwith-
standing Saturdays heavy casualties.
1t is now known that 500 is moder-
ate estimate Of the losses and many
more persons fell today,
The revolutionaries had few sue
cesses. They surprised force of
gendarmerie on Karetnai today, kill
ing or woundlng 90 of them Since
then artillery has been firing uninter-
ruptedly i'm that section of the city
In many cases the Dragons fired
into private houses where they sus-
pected the revolutionaries had taken
refuge.
In nearly every district large num-
bers of innocent persons were acci-
dentally killed or wounded Late this
afternoon 1t was reported that fight
ing was proceeding in the outskirts of
the city and that there were heavy
losses on both sides.
During the day bombs We're thrown
in the streets. The troops hold the
railway stations. but the plundering
Of freight cars continues Thrpe hun-
dred of these cars have been entirely
stripped ON the Kazan railway siding

st. Petersburg. Dec. "a --(3 D. -
With MOscow's baptism OF blood, the

hours should determine whether they

of civil war aud seriously threaten
the immediate downfall Of the govern

The government processes conf

owing TO the woeful insuffeiency of
arms In possession OF the proletariat,
and by reason of the loyalty of the
army as a whole. but its calculations
might again be rudely upset. A few
arsenals might be seized to furnish
arms or the open support Of a few reg

army Certainly the shrewdest of the
revolutionary leaders fully appreciate
that the issues must be decided by the
attitude of the army which is yet to

club. the Metropolitan club and the
Country club. was instantly killed to-
day near Flushing, l.. l., when his au-
tomobile ploughed into a strip of loose
dirt on the side of the road and turned
completely over
Stacy Clark who was in the car
was seriously injured.
Martins skull was fractured.
The accident was witnessed by
Martins wife and his son and daugh-
ter-in-law. who were following in an
other automobile.
The machine driven by the younger
Martin started first from the golf club
at Bay Side. L. l.. and made fast time
as the entire party wished TO be In
New York In time for dinner. The
larger and heavier machine with Mr.
Martin. Sr., and party. followed not
long after and midway between BAY
Side and Flushing overlook the lighter
machine. The leading machine gave
way to the other TO pass and an al
tempt was made to do so, The ROAD
appeared to be in good condition but
1t proved to be soft. Gas mains are
being laid between Bay Side and
Flushing, and the recent rain must
have caused a settling OF some of the
earth in the newly filled trenches
without disturbing the surface. When
the automobiles wheels struck the soft
earth they cut down into IL until the
machinery hit the hard edge of the
trench aud that caused the machine
TO jump and turn completely over.
When It fell It landed with wheels up
permost.
All the occupants were thrown out.
Mr.. Martin sustained a fracture OF the
skull at the base of the brain and was
dead when picked up. The others
were cut and bruised.
The chauffeur was arrested and
charged with criminal negligence
Magistrate Commorton later accepted
bail In the sum OF 81 900.

GOES AFTER NEW PASTOR
Wagon Load of Police Necessary TO
Quell st. Louis Riot.

ST. Louis, Mo. Dec, 24.-An excit-

in st. Casimir's Polish Catholic church
today TO protest against the pastor ap-
pointed by the archbishop eliminated
In a riot which required the presence
II a patrol wagon load Of police to
qucll. Seven arrests were made and
two policemen have been detailed to

The trouble is Of several weeks

parlshioners took exception to Arch
bishop Glennon's appointee and taxi
ing possession of the church. locked
out the new pastor.
Contrary to the usual custom and
only through a desire to propitiate the
congregation. the archbishop with

the pastor and assistant pastor were
forced TO flee from the parsonage BY q
