MANY PEOPLE HEAR HIM Distinguished Man Delivers Interesting Address to Large Audience Last Night. Willamette Hall was well filled last evening with a cultured and eager audience. Probably three hundred people listened for an hour and forty minutes to an address by Francis J. Fluno, M. D. C. S. D-. on "Christian Science vs. Finite Science." There were many people present from Port land, Salem and other Oregon towns to listen to Dr. Fluno, whose address follows: DR. FLUNO'S LECTURE. By way of Introduction let me say It Is not our province, desire or purpoiie to tcacii Christian Science In this lecture. Christian Science Is the science of being, and necessarily Includes all there Is ot being, and Is an education In Itself; an education that Is Infinite, unlimited and Inexhaustible; and not only takes months, but years and ages and finally, eternity Itself to know, understand and compre hend It. It takes time even to fcegln to com prehend, or begin the study as It were, of such a subject; for since Christian Bci ence Is the science of being, It necessarily Is the reverse of the sense testimony, I. e. It Is the converse of the evidence of the senses, and Is therefore Just the op posite of most people's line of thought, or way of thinking; and must of necessity take time to turn from thinking one way to thinking Just the opposite way. We may give you Bome little Idea of what It is and what It teaches; make some statements as to what. It Is and what It Is not, and tell you in what way and by what means you may obtain It for yourself. If you were going to take up the study of mathematics you would not want a book as a text book that did not teach mathematics, but taught something like It; you would want the science of num bers Itself, If you could get It, and noth ing; short of It. Or, If you wished to study music, you would not apply to a teacher who taught by ear, but one who would teach from principle, and hence teach It correctly. THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE TEXT BOOK. Likewise, to begin the study of Chrls tlon Science you will need Its text book. 'Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures.' by Mary Baker O. Eddy, and also other works of this author, and of the Christian Science Publishing Society In Boston, Mass. "These books and Judications, togeth er with the Bible, are the only ones that Christian Slcentlsts recognize as author ity on the subject, or as Christian Science ''U"The text-book of Christian Science, Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures,' Is a library In Itself; it ed Gives Mote Light Gem High Efficiency High' Candle Powe Electric Lamp THIS NEW LINE OF HIGH CANDLE- POWER LAMPS SIGNALIZES AN IMPORTANT DEVELO PMENT IN THE U8E OF ELECTRIC LIGHT, AND MARKS A NOTABLE ADVANCE IN THE BET TERMENT OF ILLUMINATION.

"The author, of rare Intellectual ability, deeply religious nature, high educational attainment and a life experience which tended toward weaning her from earthly hopes and ambitions, was being fitted for a master-work a priceless contribution to the age In which she lived. "Mrs. Eddy, of celebrated English and Scottish descent, Is a native of New Hampshire, and In the vicinity of Con cord her family for many generations has lived, honored and respected by all "Mrs. Eddy Is now living In Concord, In her modest quiet home, loved and es teemed by the citizens, her kinsfolks and friends. "And I rejoice and am grateful to say that it has been my privilege to re ceive personal Instruction from her, and confirmation, as it were, of the teachings of our text-book, 'Science and Health.' "I shall talk to you this evening upon the subject of finite sense viewed In the light of Christian Science, or CHRISTIAN SCIENCE VERSUS FINITE 8ENSE. ' "Finite sense has all things material and nothing spiritual. Christian Science has all things spiritual and nothing ma terial, "Christian Science Is Just the reverse of finite sense. And this Is why some of the leading statements In Christian Sci ence seem so absurd and far fetched to the finite sense. "And this should not seem so incon sistent and foolish, when we remember that the Bible teaches that 'the wisdom of God is foolishness with men.' And Paul writes In his letter to the Qalattons, 'The flesh lusteth against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh, and these are con trary the one to the other.' "And as Christian Science claims for its adherents, Paul also writes. 'Walk In the spirit and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh,' and also 'If ye be led of the spirit ye are not under the law.' "Christian Science teaches most em phatically that If you are led of the spirit you are not under the material law; not under the law of matter, the law of the physical; but are under the divine law, and the more closely you walk In the spirit, the further are you removed from the mortal law. "Hence, living according to Christian Science, we are becoming more and more freed from The bondage of the senses; more and more liberated from the things of sense, that tend to keep us forever In bondage. "Finite sense Judges all things from the standpoint of appearances, while Christian Science Judges all things from the standpoint of Principles, God. Jesus said, 'Judge not according to appear ances, but Judge righteous judgment., (John 7:24.) "And Isaiah,. In his prophecy of the coming Prince of Peace, said, 'And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and of might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord, and shall make him of quick un derstanding In the fear of the Lord, and he shall not Judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears, but with righteousness shall he Judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked; and righteous ness shall be the girdle of his loins and fulthfulness the girdle of his reins.' "No Judgment springing from or based upon the sense testimony can be reliable or trustworthy, and hence cannot be a righteous judgment. Appearances have no principle, no standard, no basis in fact, and hence ought not to be taken in evidence. "And since according to Jesus' teach ings, the sense testimony, the testimony of appearances, are not right, because not righteous, thehn surely It is not right for any one, and especially folowers of Shrlst,.to take them In evidence. JESUS' JUDGMENT NOT ACCORDING TO APPEARANCES. "Jesus did not Judge according to ap pearances when he met the man who had been blind from his birth; his dis ciples were Inclined to judge from that standpoint, for they asked (John 9:2-3), Continued on page 6 4 i V BIG BRIDGE " IS CLOSED County Court Will Not Let Public Cross Structure. CONDITION WAS UNSAFE People From West Side of Willamette Cannot Come With Wagons Until Repairs An Made. The County Court Wednesday clos ed the big suspension bridge across the Willamette River, and the struc ture will remain closed until all re pairs are completed, which will prob ably taUe a week or ten days. The mills and factories of the west side have constructed a pontoon bridge near the Falls and the operatives will cross to and from work over this temporary bridge, but the farmers of the west side section will be debarred from entering Orgon City, as no pro vision has been made for the passage of horses and vehicles of any descrip tion. There will be no ferry Installed for the accomodation of these people, and trade between the local mer chants and the farmers of Willamette, West Oregon City, Bolton, Oswego, Stafford, Wllsonvllle and other towns will be terminated for a time. Two bridge experts of the Southern Pacific Company made a critical ex amation of the structure and advised the County officials to close the bridge without delay. They stated that the bridge might stand and again it might fall at any time and their advice to be on the safe side was speedily taken. The bridge across the Willam ette was built about 20 years ago and this is the first time It has been closed to the public. Every part of the bridge will re ceive a thorough examination. The cableS will be unearthehd at both the east and west ends, and the casing will be stripped off of all the four piers. The cables have sunk down where the tops of the piers have been crushed in and as a result the rods ara loose. MAPLE LANE ORANGE. Patrons Favor Establishment of Pub lic Wharf Here.

Party Organized to Search For Miss ing Molalla Man. The people of Molalla Tuesday or ganized a hyntlng party to search for Albert Pasold, who has been missing since before Thanksgiving Day, 1900. Pasold went into the mountains last fall, and be has not been seen or heard from since he left. He took no gun with him, and he has no way in which to secure food, and his relatives, and especially his mother are frantic with anxiety for his safety. His brother, Frank Pasold, made a trip a week ago to the cabin at High Camp, where food was left for the missing man, but found the food untouched and Is greatly concerned. Pasold has gone away a number of times and taken his own good time aboit returning but heretofore he has always appeared, in good health and spirits, but this time he has been away so long under such conditions that there Is every reason to believe that he has starved to death in the mountain fasteness " above Molalla. Last year he was missing and a Port land timber cruiser named Burke, who had gone Into the mountains with Pas old, returned alone, and this gave rise to the suspicion that harm had come to the Molalla man. A search was in stituted and he was found, and was not at .all pleased over the hue and cry that had been raised because of bis failure to return. Eighteen people were out looking for Pasold Tuesday but found no trace. The search will be continued until some light Is thrown on his failure to return. FESTIVAL OF STRAWBERRIES Clackamas County Growers to - Be Asked to Exhibit at Fair In June. Captain James P. Shaw and W. B. Stafford have proposed the holding of a county strawberry festival In this city about the middle of June, and the idea will doubtless be taken up and pushed with vigor by Clackamas Coun ty growers. There Is about 160 acres In strawberries In this county, as 'shown by the report of County Fruit Inspector A. J. Lewis, made to tne Clackamas County Horticultural So ciety at Its last meeting. Captain Shaw formerly lived at Hood River and was greatly Impres sed with the vast amount of advertis ing done by the growers of that sec tion to display their fruit at annual fairs, and be believes that Clackamas County would profit by the same plan. The berries grown In this county are mostly of the Magoon variety and are more luclous and edible than the Clark seedling, which is grown at Hood Riv er, though not as good for canning. Captain Shaw requests all growers who desire to make an exhibit to send their names and addresses to him at Oregon City and in a week or two he will call a meeting to discuss de tails for the proposed festival.

C Oakley Condemns Prize Giving. PROTESTS IN A SERMON Insists That Gaming For Stake Does Not Differ From Ordinary Gambling. Rev. Clarence E. Oakley, pastor of the First Congregational Church, Sun day morning In his sermon denounced the practice of giving prizes for card playing at society functions and It Is said that several of the members of his church are considerably wrought up over the statements made by the pastor. Mr. Oakley, who came here several months ago from Eugene to succeed Rev. E. S. Bollinger, said Congregational Minister, Who De nounced Card Playing For Prizes. there was too much card playing In Oregon City and he made a vigorous orotest agalnBt the excessive maul gence In games ot tnat uesenpuon. There are a number of societies that devote the major portion of their meetings to card playing and the clergyman stated that too much of that sort of thing was apt to make natures shallow. Mr. Oakley stated that he supposed that card playing, and In particular orlze giving, was done through lgnor ance of social laws, and he did not put the women and men of this city on the level of the ordinary gamblers who were well aware that the prac tlce was corrupt, but he Insisted that gaming for a stake does not differ In nature from any other form of gambling. FRUIT TREE8 CONDEMNED. County Inspector Leads ihe Way For Better orchards. County Fruit Inspector A. J. Lewis has condemned a lot of fruit trees that were shipped to Charles Hall at Mu llno, from a German nursery at Ne braska. He found the trees were cov ered with root galls and hairy root and burned the entire shlpmnt. and burned the entire shipment The Inspector finds that the horti cultural law Is faulty In at least one respect, where it provides for a notice of from 60 to 90 days to be given growers who neglect to spray their trees. He says that after the time has elapsed after the notice is given it is often too late to spray to be of benefit to the orchards. Mr. Lewis sprayed one orchard last Saturday, but believes It was too late to do any good. . The orchards that have been neg lected are being attended to and In the Ladd tract at Mount Pleasant, the owner has a stump puller at work and Is doatroplng about 1200 trees that are of no value, as they are diseased beyond a point where treatment will benefit them.

These lots are the property of Mrs. Lena Rlgler, who Is the wife of City Super intendent of Schools Frank Rlgler of Portland. The cost of cutting down and burning the trees will be re corded as a loin against the property unless paid by the owner. InvestemenU Are Profitable. A. W.

The county court has increased the rates of toll over the Mount Hood and Barlow Road and has made an order allowing the road company to estab lish a new gate at the Salmon River bridge, as well as the present gate. The toll rate from the western termin us of Salmon river bridge to the toll gate and return has been fixed as fol lows: Each automobile $ . 80 Each 4-wheel vehicle drawn by on,e span or yoke of horses, mules or oxen .80 .10 Each additional span or yoke. . . Each 2 or 4- wheel vehicle drawn by one horse or mule 50 Each Baddle horse with rider.. .25 Each horse or mule with pack .20 Eahc horse or mule looso .05 Each head ot cattle loose 05 Each head of sheep, goats or hogs .01 The rate of toll over and across the road for either the old Barlow route, terminating at Gate Creek, or the Oak Grove routet, terminating at Oak Grove is fixed as follows: Each automoble $2.50 Each 4-wheel vehicle drawn by one span or yoke of horses, mules or oxen 2.50 Each additional span or yoke.. .50 Each 2 or 4 wheel vehicle drawn by one horse or mule 1.60 Each saddle horse with rider 75 Each horse or mule with pack.. .40 Each horse or mule, loose...... .20 Each head of cattle loose 15 Each head of sheep, goats or hogs .03 The petition for fixing the rate of toll recites that the distance from the western terminus of the road to Mt. Hood and the cost of construction represents V of cost of construction of the thoroughfare and Is about one- half of the distance in length of the whole road and Is more expensive to operate and matain. The rate ot toll from the western terminus to points In the vicinity of Mt. Hood shall be one full toll for the round trip. . The company says it is a hardship to maintain the bridge over Salmon river and Its road from Salmon river to the toll gate for the accomodation of the tourists and others without compen sation. The distance from the west ern terminus to the toll road Is 10 miles. Presldont P. L. Campbell ,of the University of Oregon, has been Invit ed to deliver the address to the class.
