SAYS MOTHER EDDY Is DEAD
OR MINDLESS-PLAZ HOTEL
SCIENTISTS CIRCULAR.

Fetish Manipulated by schomcrs.
Mrs. Della NJ. Gilbert who sought to
start Christian Science Church at the
Plaza Hotel but who was called on by
the central organisation at Boston. sends
to the newspapers the following circular
addressed by her TO all Christian
Soieutists':
The Christian Science Church is with
out spiritual leader In tho flesh.
'1hose In control Of the Mother Church
in Boston and Of that house Of mystery in
Brookline- falsely svowed home Of
living and thriving Mary Baker @. Eddy
cannot successfully refute this assertion.
Mrs. Eddy is either dead or q helpless,
mindless puppet in the hands Of con-
soienoeless men.
This truth has been revealed to me
and In humble obedience to the will OF
God now openly declare the facts. In
this message I appeal to all honest Chris
tian Scientists to cooperate with me for

the last three weeks have been within
the so-called home OF Mrs Eddy and
have studied at close range the fraud. the
trickery and the revolving mystery by
which the Boston organization seeks to
perpetuate the pernicious fiction Of an
unseen aud unsseabls leader.
This profane mookery will continue
indefinitely uplees honest Christian soien-
lists. who vorsbip God and NOT the fstish
OF a poor old voman's mama. combine
to exposs and exterminata the fraud.
