Chamberlin In sending the suit In equity
brought by the next friends to be heard
by masters, with authority to take testi-
mony as to Mrs Eddy's competency. was
held by Judge Chamberln in the superior
court today
Under the ruling of Judge Chamberlin the
masters were authorized to take testimony
as to Mrs Eddy's competency covering as
long a period OF her life as should seem
reasonable to the masters themselves. Mrs
Eddy's counsel. however, sought to limit
the field of the masters investigation to
the question of whether the trust deed
executed March 8 last by which she con-
veyed all her property to three trustees
was valid, and whether that deed was her
voluntary act.

MEMORIAL SUNDAY SERVICES.

y j . p r =
The Congregational church was
filed Sunday afternoon at the spec
ial services in observance OF Me e
mortal Sunday. Company G was
present as escort for Mcintyre post,
G. A. r. The Mcintyre w. Il. Corps
and the Ladies of the G. A. K. were
also present as bodies. A quartet
consisting of j. L. Mitchell, y: y.
Wilbour, Mrs. A. M. Lewis and Mrs.
Geo. S. Burnham, gave several very
appropriate selections
Rev. F. E. Knopf preached from
Isaiah $3.50, 9, on the theme the
Superiority of Gods Thoughts to
Mans. He spoke of the presence
of the veterans as more eloquent
than any speech. Memorial Day
with it's sacred influence is an educa-
tion to the whole nation In patriotism
and in higher appreciation OF the
cost of our liberties.
Our thoughts, our ends are taken
up into greater thought and far
more is often realized than we dream
of at the time. We defend a private
interest, Gods business Is being
transacted. This has been true In
all history. The Greeks with TO-
900 holding back the vast Persian
army were defending their homes
but the larger work they did was the
holding back of an Asiatic civiliza-
ton from Europe. Charles Martel
held back the Mohammedans from
overrunning Europe. The Crusa-
ders accomplished far more in the
way of modern Christian civilization
than was realized by them.
The veterans of '61-'65 have come
to see more fully with the passing
years that they were doing;a greater
work in the war than they could at
the time see. 1t was part of
larger movement under God in which
the value of our institutions was
more appreciated, the sacredness of
liberty was emphasized, slavery was
abolished and the union was pre-
served. A union of hearts exists to-
day far more than integrity of ter
ritory.
Out of the wars influence our ma
tional life was stirred by great
sentiment intellectual life was arous-
ed and human energy generated.
The days succeeding have been
marked by a national literature, by
marvellous inventive genius and in
dustrial enterprise and by an ex-
pansion growing out of the larger
ideas aroused by the war expert
ences.
Our place today, as nation,
is to stand for justice, mercy and
throughout the world.
The doctrine of Brotherhood is
higher than international law. The
law that God gave to Israel, inter-
preted by the gospel, is the basis of
our liberties. Its spirit is becoming
statutes and it must one day be
the common law of the world. On
that basis only can the federation OF
mankind be attained. Who knows
but that this is Gods great thought
for us in the wonderful national
expansion that began 40 years ago?
The Golden Rule will find the way
to industrial peace, to just relations
between capital and labor, to fair
treatment of one race by another
and to international agreement which
shall guarantee righteousness among
all the nations. .> s -,

ALDERMAN SHARTEL AFTER
MONEY TO PROTECT LIFE

Alderman Shartel introduced a reso-
luton in the council last Monday
evening appropriating $4,000 from the
permanent improvement fund for the
purpose of removing dangerous rock
at the Point of Rocks, and appropriate
ing another $1,000 from the Public
Works fund to convey rock to the low
err end of st. Croix avenue for the
purpose of protecting the avenue from
the fierce storms of Lake Superior.
The council laid the resolution over
for a week, and some Of the officials
said that enough money had been
spent on the Point Of Rocks for some
time to come, claiming that there was
no further danger.
Early Wednesday morning two large
boulders were released from their
bearings on the dangerous precipice,
and were hurled to the ground some
forty feet below. Fortunately it hap
pened during the early hours of morn
ing when no one was passing, but this
incident ought to convince the coun-
Gil that something ought to be done
Immediately to lessen the risk at this
point.
