Remarkable Demonstration in

-
First Reader of Ninety-sixth

"No Significance"
SHE REFUSES TO TALK.

More than six hundred students"
friends and spiritual followers Of Mrs.
Augusta q. stetson, the ex-commun-
icatcd leader of the First Church of
Christ, Scientist. at Ninety-slxth
street and Central Park West,
thronged her spacious residence
directly behind the church on satur-
day night. The occasion was recep-
ton rendered to the deposed disciple
OF Mrs. Eddy. spontaneously given by
those devoted to her.
Two-thirds Of those who had at.
tended the reception to the woman
whose teachings have been branded as
hereticsl by the supreme authorities OF
the Christian Science Church in Bos-
ton-the Board OF Directors of the
Mother Church-were In their pews
yesterday In the big church next door
TO Mrs. Stetson's home. worshipping In
the edifie which Mrs Stetson built
and from which she was expelled three
years ago.
NO slGNIFIcANcE IN IT, SAYS
FIRST READER VERBAL.
Though West Ninety-sixth street
was choked on Saturday night with the
automobiles Of wealthy admirers and
students OF the woman from whom
the mantel of Mrs Eddy was snatched
by the Boston directors. and those same
automobiles were drawn up before the
doors OF the church around the corner
at the hour of serice the following day.

dent of Saturday night" Richard Yer
rail-, First Reader OF the First Church,
who Is unfriendly to Mrs Stetson, de-
clared to-day.
This should not be taken to Indicate
any revival of Mrs. Stetsons preten-
sions to recover her position as head
Of the First Church." continued Mr..
VERBAL. II did not even know that
tho reception had been rendered Mrs.
Stetson. and I must believe that tho
figure given as Of those In attendance
Is greatly exaggerated. Instead of
there being renewal Of Mrs. Stetsons
campaign for the leadership from
which she was Justly deposed, every
indication points to an opposite condi-
ton"
Mrs. Stetson refused to make any
Significance. Her only reply to q
query, delivered through the medium

Honest, But Losinq His Grin.

Judson c. Welliver, Washington CORE
spondent of Farm and Fireside, publishes
IN the current issue of that periodical an
Illuminating account of the Everglades
disturbance in the department of agricul-
ture, He reports exactly how one depart
ment of agriculture official commended
.he Everglades in a written report, and
now another official filed a report against
the Everglades, thus putting Secretary
wilson in an embarrassing position. Fol
lowing are the conclusions which Farm
and Fireside draws editorially:
Il. There has been no ascertaired
graft or dishonesty in the department.. but
there have been regrettable Irregularities
n some very unwise relations between
department activities and real state oper-
atoms.
"2. Secretary Wilson has acted fairly.
honestly and wisely on such matters as
have been brought to his attention: but
one gets the impression that his hand on
the reins of his great office Is not as firm
as it should be.
g. Investors in Everglades lands have
good reason to feel uneasy. The whole
matter of the reclaimabllity of this huge
swamp is still involved in doubt.
Moral: After lands are ready for the
plow-or at least for the ak and saws
soon enough for the payment of money.
unless one is of a sporting disposition and
likes to bet on he other mans game.
Such individuals are born every minute.

MANY BUTTONS USED.

Buttons are in high favor again and
are used almost as much for trimmings
as for actual use. Paris dressmakers
are making lavish use Of cut crystal
buttons of clear, hand cut Bohemian
glass. They are used in bell shapes
and in fiat saucer shapes from half to
thr~ee-quarters of an inch in diameter.
These buttons are in good style on suits
and tailored dresses Of white serge,
~broadcloth and satin and on taffeta
suits and dresses. Colored crystal but
tons are also to be had of amethyst,
sapphire and topaz color and are used
to match costumes of those shades.
Ivory ball buttons, plain and elap-
orately carved, are again the mode and
small imitation amber buttons and
white or colored china buttons. A
touch of white on a black button or of
black on a white is sometimes seen and
while the effect Is bizarre, it Is GER

LENGTH OF TAILORED COATS

Paris coats in tailored suits are short
very short. Some of them barely
come below the waist, or if they do
hang below in the back, they are
rounded up sharply in the front in di-
rectoire style, meeting only at the bust
line. Over here the coats are a trife
longer as a general rule, but still hover
between the waist n the widest part
part of the hips. A good average
length is "a inches.
Revers are still features of the suits.
but they are not quite so exaggerated
as they have been. Usually they are
of w materials, the outer erhap
being of the same goods as the rest of
the suit, while there is an upper fac
Ing of Bengaline. toweling, ratine or
some other contrasting fabric.
Whipcord is a smart fabric for tall
bred costumes. In the light colors. such
as fawn with an undertone of white
or very pale gray, 1t is especially at
and its hard finish makes It an
admirable and serviceable material for
suits for business wear. The nos
sibility of having a two tone effect
seems to have brought this goods into
favor. Another well liked material is
a cream wooden goods with a hair line
or a quarter inch dark stripe.

but not of such a dogmatic type as
those Of the Turkish empire. The Dutch
are not hurting themselves, either in
the evangelization or education of the
natives. They are evidently more in
terested in utilizing or exploiting them.
The Chinese are willing to pay literally
for the best American teachers to edu-
cate their children, which is bound to
tell in the coming years. These Chi
nese so well adapted to all climates,
will yet largely cultivate if not domi-
nate Borneo as well as Java and Su-
matra. They are physiologically at
home anywhere in the torrid or tenn
perate zones.
Skull as Idol.
The natives are very much given to
idolatry. They will worship a tree, a
volcano or a white ant heap. One OF
their idols in Batavia is the skull of
Elberveld. This man plotted a mutiny
against the government and was ex-
ecuted or put to death by horses
drawing his limbs from his body.
The place where he was exc
cuted is now a shrine Of worship.
His skull elevated above the portal is
kept fresh with pn1->wash and regu-
larly worshiped A very old dis
mantled cannon, half buried, In a CO.
coanut grove we saw, to which great
numbers were fiocking with flowers
and other offerings in idolatrous adora-
ton.
We are glad to see that the American
Methodists, Notwithstanding the cold
shoulder of opposition on the part
of the Dutch, have entered this very
needy field. Much of their work is both
difficult and delicate. 1t is not very
when a woman applies for
membership in the church to find that
she is living in such relations to a
Dutchman or some other man as to bar
her entrance into church membership.
The first work on the part of the mis-
sionary is to bring about a legitimate
and orthodox marriage. When this can
not be done, then to sever the unlawful
relation. Such ONE have never been
taught to know any better. When they
DO marry or sever their unholy rela-
lions they often become very good and
valuable church members.
We entered Java at Batavia, the po-
litical capital. We sailed from Soura.
baya, the commercial capital, at the
other extreme of the island. Both are
large and interesting cities.

Longevity Calculations.

From the Christian Herald Almanac.
According to Button, the life Of man
can last six times as long as it takes
him to become fully developed; accord
ing to Bacon and Hufland, eight times
as long. Now, since man is not consid-
cred in the anatomical sense complete
ly mature before the 25th year OF age,
his life, according to the last named
two authorities, could" last 200 years.
But, as a matter of fact, outside the
bible, there is no record whatever Of
such long lives. Among the ~extraordt-
nary cases of longevity on record and
well attested is that of an Englishman,
Thomas Parr, who lived happily at
Shropshire to the age of 152. The cell
ebrated Harvey, who dissected him aft
er death, found his body in excellent
condition, and stated that it had not
been for his intemperance he might
have lived much longer. A census
taken under Emperor Vespasian
showed in the relatively small territory
of Italy alone so persons over 100 years
old, and among these two who had
reached the G of lao. The census of
the United States for 1910 shows 1881
centenarians, and that for 1910 1904
(maies, 1,271; females, 1888. These
figures a only a dubious value, and
merely because the vanity Of some old
people causes them to claim their age
much higher than it really is, but for
the fact that the majority of these cen
tenarians are ignorant persons (2,553
negroes, Ill Indians and 8 Mongolians),
whose statements as to their age can
not be relied upon.
