% LOS ANGELES Cal, July To-.
Lyman ] Gage. secretary Of the
treausnrys under PRESIDENTS Mckinley
and Roosevelt, has taken up his resi-.
.dence at Point Iona to study theor-
ophy under Nine. Tingley.
The distinguished fnancier, who
was 10 years Of age on June IS last,
has taken this step, he says, in ac-
cordance with instructions received
in dream.
The Point Iona institution is the
best known headquarters OF those
protesting the cult first exhibited in
the United States by the late Nine.
Blavatsky. In 1876 Nine. Blyatsky,
Harry s. olcott and William o. Judge
.oreanized the first theosophical.
society at New York. It's ayowed OBJ
iects were 'to form the neucles OF
a universal brotherhood of humanity
without and distinctions whatever,
and to pronounce the study OF an
cient and modern religions, philoso'
tphies and sciences: to investigate
the unexplained laws Of nature and
the physical powers Of man.. Not
these objects, however, but the be-
lief in successive relncarnations and
Karma-the souls responsibility for
past acts-haye been regarded as the
distinguishing features of the cult.
Since 1876 the society, which has
branches in America, Great Britain,
India, Scandinavia, Holland, France.
italy, German, Austria and New Zea'
land, has admitted $4,000 members
and chartered 750 branches. In the
United States there are 2,400 mem.
bers and SO branches.
Since his retlrment from p resi-
dent Roosevelt's cabinet In 1902 Mr..
Gage, perhaps the most conspicuous
of recent students OF theosophy, has
made his home in New York, where
he is president of the United States
Trust Co. Before entering Prest'
dent McKinley's cabinet in 1897 he
was president of the First National
Bank Of Chicago. the largest finan-
vial constitution In the west.
In Chicago Mr.. Gage was mem:
Der of David Swings Independent
Church in Central Music Hall. Rev.
DR.. Newell Dwight Hills. now of
Brooklyn, succeeded DR.. Swing. Mr..
Gage never was active in church
work. Swing was Presbyterian and
was ousted for heresy 25 years ago.
A. G.. spaldtng. the once famous
base ball pitcher and millionaire
sporting goods manufacturer, has
been a member of Point Iona col
ony for six years.

superinte ndent OF the elective ageri-
Ecy which isi working the Hartje di-
Eorce case for Mrs Hartte Is sure he
win not only be able totproye the LETT
tiers presented in the case by Angus
tus Hartie to be forgeries. but will
produce the forger. She is said to be
a bright young woman stenograph
not a resident of this city, who did
not know what the letters were to be
used for when she wrote them. As
soon as she saw them in the papers
she recognized her work and com
'municated with the detective agency.
1t Is thought she may be induced to
come here and testify.
Prof. T. M. Williams threw bomb
into the prosecution yesterday by an
nouncing he had been employed by
Hartje's attorneys as an expert on
handwriting and refused to testify at
ter examining the letters, believing
them forgeries. He is an expert OF
years standing in this city.
Mrs. Hart1e is worrying greatly
over the delay in the case, which is
harder on her than the trial. The
absence Of Tom Nadine causes much
speculation, but it is understood he
is in the east seeing some witnesses,
and further sensations win follow his
return.

Reasons for the Success Of sousa's
New Production.

j. i
Front Eyerybody's for July.
When John Philip sousa writes
the music for an opera 1t is bound to
have swing and dash, an abundance
of vitality. spirit Of youth and en-
thusiasm. It is with good reason
that sousa is called ''the March
King" There is no resisting his
martial strains: even those Of the
elect who scof at sousa music cannot
keep their feet still when the band
begins to play. "The Free Lance" is
probably the best comic opera he has
written. Not only Is there an abund
auce of march numbers, but there are
some tender lyrics and jolly comic
tingles as well
Harry B. Smiths book Is hardly In
keeping with the music.( which de-
serves something especially fine. in
setad of a pleasant, mildly amusing
libretto, built up upon perfectly safe
lines. He uses familiar musical COM
edy theme in way not sufficiently
original to be startling, but. as al
ways. he succeeds in giving an i'm
posing pictorial climax The words
for the songs are charming, of course.
for Mr.. Smith has a marvellous gift
for writing songs. He must have
turned out thousands in his long and
active career, and 1t Is doubtful II he
ever procured really bad one.

at Is ignorance and race prejudice
that lead immigration restrictionists to
classify Jewish immigrants among tho
undesir2h le," declared Chicago
banker of the race. There is no such
thing as a grave Jewish problem in
this country. Statistics show that the
accession Of hundreds OF thousands OF
ignorant and Russian Jews by I'M
migration in recent years has not bur-
dened the rich Jews. On the contrary,
it has helped to make them and the
countfy as well richer and more pros
porous. AS to the differences between
the liberal Americanized Jews and the
newly arrived orthodox Jews there Is
nothing to be exercised over. For
brethren to quarrel occasionally is but
natural. But no matter how bitter
the attack of the orthodox Jew on the
liberalized Jew, the tenets of strict
orthodox Judaism command that all
differences between Jew and jew
must be forgiven and forgotten on
the eve of Atonement day. No scene
can be more impressive than that in
Jewish homes and in orthodox syna-
gogues on the eve of Kol Nidre, when
those who have happened to quarrel
during the year tearfully extend the
hands to one another, earnestly pray
ing forgiveness"

ODD TRAIT OF MANKIND.
Human Nature Ever Prone to Get
Something for Nothing.

Human Nature Ever Prone to Get
Something for Nothing.
Human nature may be more pro-
ductively worked than a gold mine IL
you know a right method, says the
Atlanta Journal
General Manager Chapman of the In
dianapolis and Eastern Electric rail-
way. recently utilized his knowledge of
human nature in novel way.
His company had park the soil OF
which it wanted to pillow up and pull
verize thoroughly at small cost. at the
same time attracting some traffic TO
the park. 1t therefore buried $500 in
gold coin in various parts of the park
and threw the place open to any pa
tron of the street cars that wished to
dig, prescribing only that none but
small hand implements should be used.
The plan worked admirably. The
cars were thronged by amateur miners
and by the time all the coin was found
the entire surface Of the park had been
loosened up and reduced to powder to
an extent that no landscape gardener
ever saw eoualed. The street car CON-
pany got Its $500 back in fares and at
the same time gots its park thoroughly
plowed for nothing. Many will ten
derly recall the old school reader story
of the dying father who called his sons
to his bedside and informed them that,
though the old farm he was about to
leave them was worn out and had be-
come unproductive, there was buried
somewhere upon it a great treasure
and if they would persistently dig for
it they would surely find rich reward.
The sons digged and digged and
digged, turning the old farm upside
down and inside out, and, though they
found no sign Of the gold they expect
ed their harvests of grain became
enormous and their reward was richer
than they knew.
Through some popularity In our
construction we are willing to work
ten times as hard ito get something
for nothing" as to earn 1t In ordiary
wages

more boisterous delights 1 walked up

Mrs. Sarah e. Rowe, who is residing

enth year. Why? Because she has
taken Dodd's Kidney Pills, that well
known medicine that has put new life
into old bodies, and has come as a
God-send into homes of sorrow and
suffering. She says:
mo one knows what awful torture
1 suffered with Rheumatism and Kid
ney Trouble, until got cured by
Dodd's Kidney Pills. This grand
remedy drove the Rheumatism out Of
my body, nothing else ever did me
any good. Dodds Kidney Pills are
worth one hundred times their price,

The old-fashioned feather bed, such
as is still encountered in the rural dis
tricts, especially in the Southern
States, had about gone out of fashion
even before its insanitary features
were pointed out. Now it Is said by
dealers to be coming in again, and.
curiously enough, it comes with
claim to attention which appears to be
backed up by the medical profession.
A West Side doctor says that for peo-

it will relieve the strain IS good
thing, but an old-fashioned feather

why Faucet. Leak

What bothers me most in house-
keeping" yesterday declared a woman
who lives in a rented house in a sub
urban neighborhood, 'is' the leakiness
of the faucets. The plumbers say my
faucets leak so much because, instead
of being turned entirely off, they are
allowed to drip, letting drop of
water through at a time, but collect
ing the sediment in the water and
depositing it on the washer until q
tight shut-off Is impossible. This may,
Of course. be cause of leaky faucets,
but in my house, where know they
are turned off completely when not
in use. there is some other reason. I
think it is the poor quality of the
washers used-a short sighted policy
on the part Of the landIord-for they
have to be renewed all over the house
about three times a year. Last April
got some washers, a monkey wrench,
and one or two other tools and put on
new washer for one of the faucets
myself. 1t was just an experiment.
but the one fixed hasn't leaked since.
1t wasn't hard job. either"
