Coming here less than forty-eight
hours ago a thoroughly trained
athlete, eager to uphold the tradi-
lions of the university at which for
generations his family has been
represented, Archer Christian today
lies lifeless at the Georgetown Uni
yersity Hospital.
In one of the quiet, clean, little
rooms of the red brick building at
the corner of Thirty-ffth and N
streets his body awaits the hour to
be removed to the train that will
take it to Richmond, the home of
the Christians for years.
At $40 O'Clock this morning the
big Virginia player whose heroic
fight in the shadow of death gave
his devoted family the right to hope
against hope, breathed his last. So
sorrow stricken are the members of
his family and his immediate friends
that no definite arrangements have
been made for the funeral. This
afternoon the body was prepared for
removal to Richmond, and the pre-
sumption is that the interment viii
be made Tuesday in the family plot
there.

r HE most searching spiritual
experience of my life has
come TO me out Of the past
week. It has come out Of New
York. hurrying, oiI-stained, selfish.
sensual New York. It has come out
of an assignment that threatened
rather the prey and defilement Of
harpies than promised aspiration
for the soul. 1t has come out Of
faith to which, in honest regret, I
am unable to subscribe. II has come
out of a crisis for that faith to
1900 members of a great congrega-
ton, face to face as antagonists
yet uniting their voices in prayer
for the peace that passeth all un-
derstanding. 1t has come, you see.
from a strange source.
Some OF you who read will think
It likewise strange that a study of
the crisis which has come to these
people should begin with a per-

strange at all. The religion of
Christian Science, even more than
other religions, has TO do with per-
sonal experience. Every chapter in
the story Of this faith, every fruit
of it. every step in the controversy
which now imperils it, is rooted in
lust such experiences as mine And
so it follows that if Christian
Science has now come or at any
time shall come to a difficulty Of
the faith it viii be no problem to
be argued away on hypotheses; it
will be a difficulty TO reach to the
head and heart and soul of the
church and perhaps TO endanger its
life.

Thousands of persons are crowd

FOUR HUNDRED DEAD.
1t is certain that 400 men are

Six of them died in their heroic

are striving to open the sealed

Scene of Wild Chaos.
The scene today is one Of widest
chaos; with men and women working to
save those supposed to be yet impris-

rushing about the scene crazed with
excitement. Although every precaution
