CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
TEACHES TRUTH IS
MANS ONLY NEED
SAYS NARROW WAY IS ONE IN
WHICH TO WALK
Mrs. Eddy Declares but One Path
Exists to Heaven and That Is
to Know Nothing but
Good

Socrates used to say that the man OF
least desires was nearest to the gods.
The Athenian's views on Olympus were
too pronounced to leave any room for
suspicion as to what he meant. Near
ness to the gods was to him the express
sion of some comprehension of the ma
jesty of Truth. All that any man needs,
whether he knows it or not, is Truth.
The understanding of Truth will make
him not only rich toward God, but will
supply him with every legitimate hui
man necessity.
The richest man the world has ever
known was Jesus of Nazareth. HIS
bank was the divine supply, and he
drew on it without stint for the wants
of humanity. He supplied the wine for
the marriage feast, in Cana of Gal1lee,
from the waterpots in the court yard
he fed the multitudes. by the lake
shore, with a few loaves and fishes; he
took the Herodian tribute from the
mouth of q fish; he healed the sick
without recourse to the remedies pre-
scribed by the school at Damascus; and
he came to the disciples in the ship
walking on the waves.
The intense clearness of Christ Je-
sus' knowledge of Truth was, of course,
inherent in his sinlessness. The way
faring man, struggling with his appe-
titles and passions, can only hope TO
emulate that demonstration OF the
power of Truth in the exact proportion
in which he succeeds in following in the

WAITS CONFIRMATION
IN SEYMOUR MATTER
POLICE BOARD HEARING WILL
DETERMINE ACTION
City Attorney Says He Will Not Take
Coqnizance of Charges Against
Assistant Until Allegations
Are Proved

City Attorney Hewitt declared yester-
day that he had not been officially noti-
fed of any misconduct on the part of
j. F. Seymour, deputy prosecuting at
torney, in connection with the Manhat-
tan raid.
II will wait to see what is brought
out before the police commission Mon
day night" said Mr.. Hewitt, land then
If it develops Mr.. Seymour was dere-
lict in his duty will take cognlzance
of the fact"
Seymour is accused of having per-
mitted Patrolman e. N. Sanders and
young woman who occupied a room
with him in the Manhattan on the night
of the raid to escape, while others were
sent to the police station.
IL is stated this instance was to have
been used by the managers of the Man
haitian Monday night when they appear
before the police commission to snow
cause why their license should not be
revoked. They intend to show the COM
mission that the raid was not conducted
in good faith because all were not
treated alike.
But any plea the Manhattan can
make can hardly save its license, as the
uolice commission win feel justified in
revolving the permit to sell liquors on
the general reputation of the place.
This is the second time the same action
has been taken against this resort.
When it was known as the Bisbee Inn
the license was revoked by the Nc
Aleer administration for improper con-
duct.

SAYS POLICE CAUSED
HIM TO BREAK WORD
William Huntoon, at Liberty on Pro-
baton, Declares Officers Sent Him
Into Gambling Houses to
Get Evidence

Police officers viii appear in Judge
Willis criminal court Wednesday to
explain their action in employing Will
liam Huntoon, young man placed on
probation some time ago, as a "stool
pigeon" in gambling houses.
Huntoon was in court yesterday
charged with violating the provisions
of a probationary sentence imposed
upon him more than two years ago
after he pleaded guilty to a charge of
forgery. One of the strictest condi-
tons laid on HuntoOn was that he
must refrain from gambling.
1t was because he violated this con-
dition that Huntoon was arrested by
the probation officers.
you promised faithfully that you
would keep away from games of
chance" said Judge Willis when Hun
toon was brought before him yester-
day. How do you explain your con-
duct?"
Il was sent into these places by the
police. They wanted me to act as a
stool pigeon replied Huntoon.
He added that Captain Charles Dix
on, Patrolman d. T. Murphy and three
plain clothes men-Earl Busse and Of
ficers Glenn and Stevens-knew he was
on probation when they employed him
TO obtain evidence against gamblers.
Judge Willis continued the matter ia
Wednesday and ordered subpoenas is
sued for the police officers to appear
at that time and render an explanation
Il certainly am not going to place
men on probation to have policemen
aid them in violating their promises. u

Charged with trading a lot, so we'll

with offices at 107 South Broadway,

were later released on bonds of $1,000
each. They will be arraigned Tuesday.
A warrant was also issued for w. A.

by the real estate men.
Mrs. Margaret Fetters, who conducts
a rooming house at 754 South Los An

against the men. She entered into a

1t is sometimes thought by those who
have had no personal experience of
what Christian Science means to Chris
ton Scientists that 1t is harsh ana
colorless religion. They see, almost
with alarm, what the Christian Scien-
fist would regard as his very limited
success in obeying the Pauline lnJunc-
ton, to come out from tire world ana
be separate 1t never seems to occur
to them that such a verdict is hardly
consonant with the one admission the
world is unanimous in conceding. that
Christian Scientists are practically in
variably cheerful and contented.
The secret of this cheerfulness and
contentment is that Christian Scientists
have found through the teaching OF
Christian Science with regard to the
unreality of matter, and the consequent
allness of divine Love, the thing which
the world is seeking in vain through
even the most purified belief in ma
terial channels, and that is "the peace
of God which passeth all understand

poem of Mrs. Eddy's

however, within the capacity of all
humanity, from the least of them unto
the greatest to accept Christ as the
way and to strive to come unto the
Father unto Truth, along tina. way.
There's No Royal Road to Truth
There is no more possibility of find
ing a royal road to Truth than there
was of Euclid finding one for Ptolemy
to the requirement of mathematics.
Christ Jesus described the road once
and for all, in the sermon on the Mount,
when he said, Enter ye in at the
strait gate; for wide is the gate, and
broad is the way, that leadeth to de-
struction, and many there be which go
in thereat; because strait is the gate,
and narrow is the way, which leadeth
unto life, and few there be that find
it." 1t has, however. this much of the
Roman about it, that it is straight as
we'll as strait, 1t goes round nothing,
but over everything, for it is the road
spoken of in the book of Isaiah, in the
words, Prepare we the way of the
Lord, make straight in the desert a
highway for our God. Every valley
shall be exalted and every mountain
and hill shall be made low; and the
crooked shall be made straight and the
rough places plain

of this world must leave the camel

He is one of the best informed lawyers
in the United States on mining laws,

Nevada is the center of mining ope-
rations in this country" said Mr..
Thomas 1.-The mining interests in that
state in my opinion are greater than in
any other. Its resources have hardly
been touched. Arizona and New Mex

rich deposits that never have been
touched This section of our country
is teeming with wealth and only awaits
human energy and effort to develop it,

TAD Wants "a Keen sOur Jo. :


Information received from Panama
indicates that the resignation Of Gov.
j. G. S. Blackburn may not be handed
IN after all, and the information also
shows that the best of feeling exists
between President Taft and Gov.
Black buIn-in other words, Gov. Black
burn has not been asked to resign, but.
on the other hand, has been urged to
remain in Office.
This information comes by letter
from a Kentuckian who was present
at the reception given by Governor
Blackburn to President Taft during
the latter's last visit to the isthmus,
some weeks after his election. On
this occasion Gov. Blackburn in his
characteristic way said:
Mr.. President / am getting old
and have but few years to live. |
am getting tired Of this job down here
and l want to resign and go back to
my home in Kentucky to pass the re-
naming days of my life in peace. The
sooner you can send a man here to
take my place the better l will be
pleased"
Il know you feel that way now"
Mr.. Taft replied because you are
homesick but everything is getting
along so smoothly down here under
your administration that | want you
to stay. You take a three months
leave next fall come up TO Kentucky
and get good rest. After that if you
feel like you don't want to come back
to Panama we will discuss the matter
of allowing you to resign"
This puts stop to all the talk about
"Old joe being, forced out or asked
to resign. He is there to stay if he
wants to, for Mr.. Taft has told him
SO. The letter from Panama goes to
say that Gov. Black burn really wants
to quit, wants to give up all politics
and otficeholding and spend his re-
naming days in quiet on his farm near
Versailles. He is coming to Kentucky
this fall and it is a moral certainty
that if he wants to go back to Panama
at the end of his leave he will be per-
mitted to do so, but his closest friends
In Panama say he means what he says
when he announces that he will re-
sign when he reaches Washington and
will positively refuse to retain the
Governorship of Panama. This in
formation comes from a source that
cannot be doubted, and it is believed
to state the exact facts as they hap
pened when the, President was IN
Panama.

1t is a popular mistake that only
wealthy people who eat rich and
highly-spiced foods suffer from dys-
pepsia, or, as it is also known, indi-
gestion. The laborer in the street,
the worker in the field also finds him
self victim of this disorder. Among
the very greatest sufferers from it are
women.
Dyspepsia is indicated by constant
Ieenng OF laziness, by loss Of appetite and
trouDled sleep, by sour stomach and dis
lusterless eyes.
There is no surer and speedier cure for
THIS trouble than DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup
Pepsin, which dyspeptics have been using
successfully for twenty years. This great
