 Most Remarkable Change.
 The most remarkable single change that returning Bostonians will discover is un- questionably the removal of the artistic and musical center of the town from Copley Square, where the famous Public Library and Trinity Church stand, to a section between the city proper and the adjacent suburb of Brookline. There a former stretch of salt marsh is now occupied by the Fenway, parkway with ornamental features which follows the course of a sluggish but not unattractiye little meadow river. Here, on a wide ex- panse of level land, fanked by low hills, are the newly dedicated white marble Medical School of Harvard University the gift in the main of J. Pierpont Nor gan and John D. Rockefeller; the cele- brated Isabella Stuart Gardner Museum in the Fenway Limited, more popularly known as Mrs. Jack Gardner's Italian Palace;" Tufts Medical school; Simmons college; the New England Conservatory; a group of three building connected with the Boston Normal school; the Museum of the Massachusetts Historical society, and many more. Here ground has recent ly been broken for the group of buildings for the Museum of Fine Arts, which will cost several million dollars, and the Har- yard Dental school will build soon Just outside the Fenway district rises the very large dome of the new Christian Science Temple, the Mecca of all faithful follow CTS of Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy.

BUTTE COUNCILMEN
GRANT AN INCREASE
By Associated Press.


BUTTE, Mont, March 2.-The Butte
mill and smelter mems union failed to
vote last night upon their proposition
to demand an increase in wages.
Union officials refuse TO talk today
and it is not known why the action
which has been officially announced
did not take place. 1t is said upon au-
thority that a compromise between the
copper companies and the smelter men
and the miners will be reached within
week, probably upon the basis of a
five-year wage scale contract in the
case and the situation will be much
improved.
The demands Of the Butte working
mems union have been generally
granted, and today a majority of the
men are at work. They ask an increase
of from SO to $3.50 per day The city
council, which for srly had refused
the demand, later lad a special meet
ing and granted it, and private employ
'ers and corporations seem disposed to
follow suit.

out court proceedings, the entire plant

resentative, may deem proper to be
taken in the matter.

Further Claims Made
Mr.. Glover further claims that in the
last twenty ~flve years his letters to his
mother have never had direct reply
from her, and from other matters re-
lating to his attempts at correspond
ence, Mr.. Glover believes that Mrs.
Eddy is surrounded by designing per-
sons who are using her condition for
their own selfish ends"
The petition sets forth the extensive
and valuable" real and personal prop
erty of Mrs. Eddy and alleges that the
defendants and others manage the
same solely according to their own
will and pleasure"
In dealing with the revenue accruing
to Mrs Eddy from her writings, jour-
nails, etc, the plaintiffs set forth that
probably several million dollars was
netted to the leader of the church. The
petition alleges that there is abundant
reason to believe that the defendants
and their associates have wrongfully
converted to their own private uses or
otherwise misappropriated or unlaw-
fully diverted large sums of money
and property Of the said Mary Baker
Eddy. These plaintiffs claim that the
defendants should now be adjudged
to have been trustees thereof and
should be compelled to give an account
thereof and make restitution thereof.
Want Property Protected
q, In closing the plaintiffs pray that the
defendants "be enjoined during the
tendency of the present suit in equity,
not to interfere with or undertake to
manage or control any of the business
or property of Mrs. Eddy or to do any
act whatever in her name or behalf
under any pretext or undertake to
manage or control any of the busi-
ness or property of Mrs. Eddy or to

been sufficiently blessed to enable you
to enjoy this and other luxurles, give
thanks by making a fair, honest re-
turn to the assessor or his deputy.
May Puncture Conscience
"It may save you a puncture, II not
of your tire, certainly 1t will of your
conscience. In making your return do
1t according to law and not according
to what you think somebody else has
done or may do when they make their
return.
"There is nothing in the law of reve-
nue. and taxation that says you are to
base your acts upon those of your
neighbor. If he is, knowingly to you,
concealing anything from the assessor
(they do it sometimes and often holler
about 1t afterward) tell the assessor
about 1t.
You should do so. If you catch
some one stealing you would notify the
police, wouldn't you? A petty thief is
a gentleman as compared with the tax
payer who knowingly makes a false
return to the assessor. The thief takes
some chances; not so with the other
fellow as far as the action of the law
Is concerned"

.EXCURSIONISTS co
TO PACIFIC ISLES
BIG CROWD EMBARKS FROM
SAN PEDRO
Two Hundred and FIFTY Southern CALI
fornlans Break the Way for
Steamer Line with
Hawaii

When the tide went out at San Pedro
last night 1t carried with 1t the $50
chamber of commerce excursionists on
their way to Honolulu. The trip to
the southern seas is expected to be the
opening wedge in the bid which Los
Angeles intends to make for the COM
merce of the east and the Ohio Is the
first passenger boat to sail directly
from San Pedro to Hawaii.
The eXcursionists met at the Pacific
Electric station In midafternoon. A
host of friends and relatives were with
them on the way to San Pedro to bid
them farewell. Seven special cars were
in waiting to take the travellers to the
harbor city and almost as many more
were crowded with their friends. A
musical automaton in the railway sta
tlon filled the waiting room with the
strains of 1.-THE Star Spangled Banner"
as the excursionists took a farewell
look at the city of the Angels before
boarding the cars.
A crowd was in waiting at the San
Pedro wharf when the special cars drew
near and the excurslonists were es-
corted to the boat by band. 1t re-
quired nearly three hours for the $50
travellers to embark and for their
friends to bid them bon voyage Be-
fore the last of the baggage had been
taken on and checked the boat was
tossing restlessly on the rising tide and
the shore was lined with onlookers,
waiting OF see the ship go out.
Is an Excellent Craft
The Ohio is one of the best boats
which could have been chosen for the
trip and has been tested in several
stiff gales. Off Cape Flattery it en-
countered terrific storm and rode
through without tremor Every pos
sible arrangement for the excursionists
was made on board the boat. All the
state rooms were rebuilt and the ship
has been decorated from stem to stern
in honor Of her gala trip.
The little island Of Hilo will be the
first place of anchor. The natives of
the island, which is five days out, have
arranged for reception to the visitors
under the direction of several former
California residents. The invitation re-
ceived by Secretary Virgins invites
the expedition to remain three days, but
it is thought they will not be able to
make so long a stay.
At Honolulu they will be welcomed
by the Honolulu board Of trade, Of
which Claus Spreckels, jr., Is secretary.
The announcements from the far away
island indicate that the chamber of
commerce will be repaid some of it's
generous hospitality to other visiting
organizations. The entertainments
planned will include dinners, balls and
excursions through the island.
