Special to the Evening Times.


Boston, Mass, July 3.-An edition of
Mrs. Eddy's Science and HEALTH" run
off during the past week by the Cam

this work to date up to 4SS,OOO copies.
These figures iii themselves form one
of the most striking commentaries on
the marvellous executive and business
skill of the 85-yiear-old woman who
is the mainsprin 6 of the Christian
Science movement. Figures made pub
lie at the recent annual communion in
this city showing the increase in the
number of Christian Science churches
and communicates were surprising
even to those who have closely fol-
lowed the spread of the movement.
Where but few years ago the
churches weup numbered by scores
they are now to be counted in the
thousands. There is scarcely a COM
munity in any part of the land where
the church has not gained foothold.
These branch churches are all under
the absolute control of Mrs. Eddy,
who is Pastor Emeritus" of the

this wonderful woman displays all the
energy and capacity of young bust
ness man. In an indirect but effective
way she controls everything. and with
the great growth of the church her
wealth has proportionately increased.
Even her most trusted lieutenants are
said to have but faint idea of the
actual bulk Of her fortune. 1t is safe
to say, however, that Mother" Eddy's
private fortune has now reached fig
ures that eclipse the most ambitious
dreams of DR.. Dowie.
Through the hundreds of Christian
Science churches and reading-rooms
in this and other lands Mrs. Eddy
pushes the sale of her book Science
and Health" The Church Manual"
written by Mrs. Eddy, commands all
readers in the church to read from
Science and Health" and the Bible.
The price of the cheapest copy that can
be had is So. 1t is said that the actual
cost of making thu, book is less than so
cents. The profits go to Mrs. Eddy
personally. More than 485,O00 copies
have been sold, SO that at the lowest
estimate she has made from this
source alone upwards of $1,200,000.
But there are more expensive copies,
ranging in price up to $500. Her other
books are also sold for her benefit
through the church and its reading
rooms. With tft, 100000 she is al
legged to have made out of the Massa-
chusetts Metaphysical college, which
she founded in 1881. and the vast sums
she is supposed to have made during
her early career as healer, although
there is no means of telling how
much money she derived from the last
named source, it may he seen at a
glance that the Mother" of Christian
Science possesses a fortune that can
not be equalled by many of those list

geometrical progression and there

Washington, d. c.. July 3.-There is
no figure more familiar and no face
more welcomed in the halls of con-
gJess than that of the genial and
whole-souled secretary OF war, and
WheE Mr.. Taft determines that an end
is worth working for he generally
achieves it. There is, it is true, some
disposition to regard the secretary as
too indulgent a foster father to his
little Filipino orphans" but his en-

amusement, and when the secretary
becomes Intensely in earl st demo-
Gratis as we'll as republicans fall VIC
tins Oh his whole-souled good humor
and his "jo!lying" ways.
Several days ago the form of the
secretary OF war loomed upon the
horizon OF the house, and with deadly
aim he made for the chairman of the
house committee on naval affairs.
There is an old naval vessel out in
the Philippines which Bonaparte has
no use for" painted the secretary, as
He vigorously welded a palm leaf
two feet in diameter; Il want that
boat and he's willing to lend it to
me-"
And what does the secretary of war
want OF an old naval vessel?" quietly
inquired Representative Foss. Does
he want to use it for a private yacht?"
"Not by jug FULL" answered the
secretary, using the most startling ex-
pletive he ever permits himself, mot
by jug full; want that old hulk
to teach the little Filipinos to become
sailors. The Filipino, Foss, makes the
finest sailor in the world when he is
properly trained" and the secretary
became carried away with his own en-
thusiasm and INDUCED in panegyric

Thi, result of the conversation was
that the house passed IAN act to au-
thorize the secretary of the navy to
loan temporarily to the Philippine
government a vessel of the United
States navy for use in connection with
nautical schools of the Philippine
Islands,"
But the secretary'S troubles were
not yet over. The temperature stood
at 100 when lde hove in sight in the
senate lobby again; he still had the
palm leaf, though it was slightly fray

more than a wet rag around his am

streamed with perspiration, but it
beamed just the same.

boat for your Filipino children yet?'

Not yet, not yet" responded the
secretary as he grasped the hand of
