Christian Psychology.

Chicago.-Bishop Fallows began
Thursday night at st. Paul's Reformed
Episcopal church his demonstration OF
;he efficacy of Christian psychology as
n cure for human ills. lie was so over
whelmed with applications for treat.
ment that in place Of giving individual
treatment he was compelled to treat
his patients" in measure ell masse.

ton. After outlining briefly what he
deemed to be the limitations OF the
psychological method, Bishop Fallows

vited the others to come at a future

Admiral Rrownson Rebuked.

washington.- President Roosevclts
attitude on the question OF the COM
mand of hospital ships In the navy.
which resulted in the resignation Of
Rear Admiral Willard II. Brownson
and incidentally some caustic obserS-
ations on that incident and the con-
troyersies among the naval officers
and their adherents as to details OF
naval construction and methods OK
training, were made known Sunday
when Secretary Metcalf gave to tho
press two letters from the Presfdent
addressed to him on these subjects.
In the first of these letters Prest-
dent Roosevelt condemns In unmeas-
ured terms the act of Admiral Brown
son. declaring 1t to be unseemly and
improper. The question upon which
Admiral Brownson took issue with the
navy department the President de-
clares Is one on which there can ba
entirely legitimate differences OF opin-
IONS. but, he adds. there is no room
for differences of opinion as to the
gross improperly OF the admfrars
conduct in resigning sooner than carry
ont the orders of his superior officers
in such matter. The oihcers or the
navy must remember that 1t is not
merely childish. but In the highest de-
gree reprchensible, to permit either
personal pique, wounded vanity or FAC
rional feeling on behalf Of some par
ticuIar bureau or organization to ren-
der them disloyGl to the interests OF
the navy and therefore to the country
as a whole"
