SCORES ACT OF BEATTIE JURY.
Prof. Eccles Says Prayer Was Act Of
Spiritualism.

Declaring that the prayer of the
Beattie jury. just before the ballot for
the verdict, was no more nor less than
an exhibition Of Spiritualism. and that
Henry Beattie was entitled to. another
trial because of it, Prof. Eccles adj
dressed the Secular League at Pythian
Temple yesterday afternoon. He COM
pared the prayer of the jury to the
tossing of dice. He said. in part:
THE jury had been directed to render
It's verdict according to the evidence.
The action of the jury was downright
Spiritualism. Notwithstanding the fac,
that Spfritualism is not recognized by
any court of law. this jury allowed it's
opinion to be guided by supposedly
supernatural influence, leaving tho
facts in the case of secondary con-
sideration.
IF a man is to be tried by law and
evidence. let him be so tried. If he
is to be tried by Spiritualism. let him
be so tried. But do not try him by
Spiritualism in a law court"
Prof. H. c. Kirk presided and adj
dressed the : members on Higher
Secularism." Others who spoke were
Mrs Gertrude Mckenzie. former Rep
reSentative A. w. Barber of Indiana
and Dr. James III. Kelley.
Prof. Kirk attacked the statement re-
Gently made by William Jennings
Bryan, who was quoted as follows:
II cannot accept it referring to the
theory of evolution as laid down by
DARWIN. The monkey may be accept
able as an ancestor for sOme-I do not
find him So"
perhaps Mr.. Bryan would have preferred
to have been created directly out of
mud than to have had an intelligent
animal for an ancestor.

FUNCTION OF PAIN
DR.. McKim Calls It the Chisel in the
Hand of the Divine Artist

Rev. DR.. McKim of the Church of
Epiphany preached yesterday morning
on "The Function of Pain it being the
first of series of sermons for the
month of October
Pain and disease. suffering and sor-
row, are called mysteries but they
are also masteries'-masterful forces in
the education of the human race" Dr.
McKim said. These .inscrutable mys-
teries' are the chosen Observation-Disclosures for
fashioning the highest types of char
acter. The divinest patience and self
sacr1hce that have ever mirrored Christ
to men. the loftiest courage and heroism
that have ever glorified human nature
have been finely fashioned on the anvil
Of suffering.
BE sure of this A world without
suffering would be world without
much that is angelic, most divine Had
there never been pain and suffering
what a different world it would have
been-all marsh and meadow; all plain
and prairie; no towering cliffs and
yawning chasms: no heaven-kissing
Mont Blanc; no thunderous Niagara: no
valley of the Yosemite-a dead level
world! Pain is the chisel in the hand
Of the Divine Artist. by which out of
the rough block of our sinful, selfish
humanity the form of the Christ will
be made to emerge.
I'VE may thank God for pain, for
suffering. for sorrow. Our suffering
whatever it's form, whatever it's in
tensity, is not without our Father"

TEST TOWN CHARTER.
Mount Rainier, Nd, Alleged to Have
No Legal Existence.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
HYATTSVILLE. Nd, October ., 1911.
The act Of the Maryland legislature of
1910 incorporating the town of Mount
Rainier. Prince Georges county, is un-
constitutional according to Charles B.
Calvert, a lawyer of the county. This
statement was made Saturday evening in
the court of Justice of the Peace Robert
E. Joyce at Mount Rainier.
Several weeks ago r. p. Drake a resi-
dent of the municipality. was notified by
the chairman of the health committee,
DR.. ]. c. Ohlendorf, to abate nuisance
on 10Th street near Ash street, caused
by the foundation of a proposed dwelling
house becoming filled with water. Drake
refused to take any action in the prem
1ses, and warrant was procured. When
the case came on for trial before Justice
Joyce Saturday evening Attorney Calvert,
for Drake. asked that the warrant be
quashed on the ground that the mayor
and common council of Mount Rainier
were assuming to act under a statute
which il unconstitutional Counsel for
Drake also claimed that the mayor and
common council have never been legally
and properly elected and have no stand
ing either in law or fact to act as a pub
lie corporation; that the mayor and COM
the ordinance claimed to have been vio-.
lated; that no proper notice was served
upon the defendant to abate the nuisance.
Justice Joyce overruled the motion, and
after hearing many witnesses for the town
and the defendant fined Drake 81 and
costs. Attorney Calvert noted an appeal
TO the court of appeals of Maryland, and
the case will be taken to that court the
Mount Rainier charter not providing for
an appeal to the circuit court of Prince
Georges county lin cases of violation of
town ordinances.
