SALEM. April U.-(SpecIaU-The First
Christian Science church building erected
In Oregon was dedicated In this city today.
Jt was erected by the Second Church of
Christ. Scientist, at a cost of $3000. and Is
one of the prettiest and best furnished
churchm In the city. The dedicatory efcr
clsra were conducted by Mrs. R S. Bean
and Wylle A. iloores. flr and second
readers of the church, and addresses were
also delivered by Mrs. Blanche Hogue and
David B Ogden. of Portland.
As there was not room for all who
wished to bear the services, the exercises
were re jxatcd in the afternoon, when
about 100 members of the church in Port
land were present. V.lth a membership of
60. among them me of the most hlghly
cteemed residents of Salcm.-the church
has begun Its worship In Its new home,
under most auspicious circumstances.
The new church building 1 located on
Chemeketa street, just went of the City
Hall, and In one of the most desirable
parts of the city. The structure la of
wood and oimple In design. To the thought
of strength and durability which one re
ceives from a view of the building from
the outride Ifl added a perception of rich
ness, beauty and comfort, when one enters
the church and rawes through the parlor,
reading-room, assembly-room and. study.
The parlor, reading-room and study are
neatly furnished, and the -walls are
adorned with appropriate pictures. The
assembly-room Is very conveniently ar
ranged, with a possible seating capacity of
200. The interior woodwork is finished In
hard oil, and the whole building In heated
from a furnace In the basement. The
acoustic of the assembly-room are excel
lent. An Is the case with all Christian
Science churches, the property was entire
ly pa!4 for before It was dedicated. W. C
Knighton, of Portland, la the architect.
Address of the Chief Reader.'
The address of Mrs. R. S. Bean, first
reader of the church, at the dedication ex
ercises today, was, in part, as follows:
Friends: We sincerely welcome you to this.
the opening service Id our new church. Our
loriog thought goes out to those who are iong
Ing for a sincere, practical religion, and also
to those who realize the satisfaction of hav
ing this deslr fulfilled.
We know we have your warm Interest in the
completion of this chaste and beautiful church,
which has been demonstrated by this small
band of Christian Scientists. A deep satisfac
tion and happiness is felt by those who real
ise the higher meaning of church, as given in
'Science and Health, with Key to the Scrip
tures." by Mary B. O. Eddy. "The Structure
of Truth and Love; Whatever nests Upon
and Proceeds from Divine Principle," for they
know that this church is also being demon
strated in each consciousness, that this build
ing is a symbol of the "temple net made with
bands, eternal in the heavens." Our work Is
with ourselves primarily, for. as has been
beautifully said. "To think and deraonslral
In dally living God's thoughts, as gH-en in the
Holy Hlble and Science and Health Is the most
acceptable prayer, and this makes each con
sciousness become the temple of God. filled
with health, holiness and harmony, which
radiates from a spiritual and not a material
source."
In this practical age, when every new theory
or religion has to bear the scrutiny of all lines
of thought, the fact that Christian Science has
mtt the battery of every kind of criticism for
over 30 years, and while the opposition has
been bitter and unjust that the growth has
been steady and yet phenomenal in its rapid
ity and strength, has proven that a need has
been met, and that the world is becoming con
vinced of the fact that "God is with us." it
so, who can be against us? If a religion not
only demonstrates In Its adherents the highest
spiritual and moral growth, but Includes their
healing from disease as well, why should It
not be invulnerable from all attacks It God is
positively realised to be the only foundation
on which it Is bullded? Such we claim is
Christian Science. Through our impersonal
pastor, the Bible and "Science' and Health"
we are led to love our Bible more than ever
before and are lifted above the criticisms or
admiration of perrons to a place where person
ality Is laid aside, and we each strive to tx
come channels for truth, and we then see that
divine mind has guided our leader, in this as
In all else.
lier Hand Rrmores the Veil.
There is always a time during the unfolding
of the truth given by Mrs. Eddy when her per
sonallty troubles one. As the grandeur and
verity of her tbougnt presses on our conscious
ness, however, hers becomes the hand that
tears away the veil from before our spiritual
sight. As such her service becomes fraught
with almost loving Interest to her followers.
Their love and gratitude go out to her more
and more as the truth she voices reaches their
consciousness. And as this truth unfolds to
one longing for the spiritual understanding, as
undoubtedly foupd in her writings, her person
ality becomes as nothing, or as a clear glass
through which the truth Is seen. As to those
of us who can testify to needs met many,
many tlmss by the new-old truth, lived and
taught by Jesus, and his disciples, and so beau
tlfully and logically revivified by Mr. Eddy.
the love and respect we hear for her seem so
natural and unavoidable that we perhaps too
often take It for granted other appreciate our
lore for her.
There is no longer any doubt as to the In'
fiuenoa Christian Selene Is to have In the
development of the best In the world. In al
most every small town there is some room
where half a dosen meet who are realizing
that "where two or three are gathered togeth
er in my name there am I in the midst of
them." These little companies have the same
pastor, same form of service and same spiritual
rood that the worshipers tn the beautiful tern'
ties of the largest cities enjoy. In Chicago
they are building the fifth large Christian
Science ehurrh. All are beautiful buildings.
sutd the church organisations are the outgrowth
from the first church on the same principle
that bees swarm when their hive is outgrown.
The growth and Interest in Christian Science
everywhere U In line with that In Chicago,
but after all the life and Impelling force of
this great movement n religious thought is
not In the material growth seen by all.
Obey the Command of Jeans.
The source of strength and power manifested
is the conviction of every Christian Scientist
that their work is to obey the command of
Jesus, "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your
Father In heaven Is perfect." They know that
as "Divine love ala)s has met and always
will meet every human need, " ("Science and
Health"), this likeness which is the true man
can be manifested by each Individual, As our
leadsr has said:
"The highest prayer Is not one of faith mere
ly; It Is demonstration. Such prayer heals
sickness, and must destroy sin and death. It
distinguishes between the falsity of sinful
sense and truth that Is sinless. . . . The
substance of all devotion Is the reflection and
demonstration of divine love, healing .sickness
and destroying sin. Our master said, "It j-e
love me keep my commandments. . .
The habitual struggle to be always good Is ua
ceasing prayer."
Firmly believing In such statements of truth
as these, cf which our textbook Is full, Chris
tlon Scientists are proving constantly that their
work Is blest of the Father.
History of Organization.
In his historical address Wylle A. Moo res
said, among other things, that the assocla-
tlon. of which the Second Church of
Christ. Scientist, Is the outgrowth, was or
ganized In Salem 11 yere ago. The prevent
organization waa eaecica in December.
1W0. and the Drat offerings for the purpose
erecting tnc new Duiiamg were given on
Christmas Day. 1S0L The erection of the
present building was decided upon last
September.
Address of D. B. Oarden.
David B. Ogden. of Portland, chairman
of the state publication committee, ad
dressed the congregation In part a fol
lows: In the privilege of sharing the Jer of this
happy occasion, the question has presented It
self Why Is It that we as Christian Scientists
come together with such rejoicing at this timet
Wherein dors the setting apart of this church
building to the purposes of good, have special
significance to us all? Earnest efforts arM lov
ing motives cave reared and dedicated places
of worship throughout recorded time, and
wherein Is this slmole dedication of greater
significance to us and to the world? Is It not
that the foundation, the very walls within and
without, bear constant testimony that Cod is
in very deed omnipotent and today can and
does heal the sick as well as the sinful?
Were this not true, did not the glad gospel
of Christian Science heal the sick, comfort the
distressed and reform the sinner as practical
evidence of the present power of divine love,
no church of Christ. Scientist, would exist,
this dedication would not have been possible.
In reply to the query, "Where do Christian
Scientists come from?" It has been aptly said
bygone who has' found health and strength
after years of hopeless suffering and despair,
"Most people come to Christian Science because
they hare been lifted out of a hell o'f misery."
"Most of ns came from our graves."
Christian Science has provided man with that
scientifically Christian view of the statements'
and promises of the Bible by which the eter
nally harmonious facts about man as the Im
age and reflection of God are made, clear and
practical, and in direct proportion as he mag
nifies God. striving daily to know more of
good and less of evil, making this the one
dominant purpose of his life, he is able to give
practical evidence in daily experience of the
worth of the Master's promise: "Seek ye first
the kingdom of God and his righteousness and
sll these thlncs" health, happiness and
abundance "shall be added unto you." "
Christian Scientists have found that every
thought, word or act which fosters selfishness,
femr. discouragement or doubt also berets dis
ease, and would. If possible, belittle rather
than magnify the power of Cod, and that as
such suggestions are resisted In the desire to
magnify good rather than evil, man is blessed
accordingly.
Christian Science presents to mankind the
pure lens of spirit through which the unbroken
and harmonious relation of man to God may
be discerned, and provides sn uhvsrlable rule
by which the problems of human experience
may be successfully solved to the magnifying
of God through the salvation of man from all
that Is unlike his Maker. In surveying the
evidence of this salvation In the establishment
of and growth of this health-giving church
of Christ, Scientist, Christian Scientists have
great reason for devout gratitude.
The mother church of Christian Science was
organized In Boston less than a quarter of a
century ago. and the first church building of
this denomination was dedicated at Oconto,
Wis., but IT years ago. while at this date there
are so less than Tea organized churches and
societies holding regular services in this coun
try snd abroad, and those who have been
healed by the ministration of Christian Science
are counted by hundreds in almost every com
munity.
It is well to remember that the work In
Christian Science the estahilhsment of our or
ganization, the dedication of our entireties, the
maintaining of our Sunday and Wednesday
services, our reading-rooms, the publishing of
our periodicals, the delivery of our lectures.
the work of enlightenment through public
press, the healing and saving efforts of our
practitioners and teachers, yea, the whole mis
slon of this movement Is not that Christian
Scientists may rest st ease and content in ma
terial conditions, but rather that God may be
magnified by our affording to our brother man
that opportunity by which be, too. may be
come conscious of health, happiness, abundance
and peace through a truer appreciation of the
magnitude and power of an ever-present snd
all-loving Father.
Greetings From Portland.
Mrs. Blanche Hogue. of Portland, dellv-
ered an addrees, in which she cold:
in coming to you todsy to bring you loving
greeting from the Christian Scientists In Port
land, and to rejoice with you In your new
church home, our first thought might be one
of congratulation to you did we not know that
this edifice represents something far too great
for human congratulation, something far be
yond the reach of personal commendation or
exultation.
The Christian Science text book teaches us
that "the abiding sense of wrong doing tends
to destroy the ability to do right." and then
leads our thought at once to the contctnpla
tlon of the opposite fact, that the conscious.
ness of right doing Is Its own reward. The
real reward which is coming to the Christian
Scientists tn this hour Is not In the beautiful
church buildings. In the external signs of pros
perity wmcn mara the progress or our cause,
but in the ever-increasing knowledge of God
which is coming into the heart and life as a
result of sacrifice, obedience and loyalty.
In the lesson we are to hear today, we read
that Solomon asked for wisdom and under
standing that he might discern between the
good and the evil. Because he had not asked
for riches and honor, but for understanding
and the knowledge of good, he was given a
wise and understanding heart." and then
these external thing were added unto him.
Jesus said: "Seek ye first the kingdom of
heaven and ail these things shall be added unto
you."
This external building has been "added" be
cause it is the honest fruit of right thinklna,
tight living. It stands as the symbol, the
witness, not as the thing Itself. And so.
means Infinitely more than a building which a
number of men and women have congregated
together to erect. It Is an expression of the
months and years of right thinking and right
acting of those who have been and are "seek
ing first the kingdom." It bears witness to
fidelity, to unswerving allegiance to k perfect
Ideal, to consecrated toll la the endeavor to
make that Ideal a living, practical reality. It
testifies of unfaltering trust in hours so darlc
that the dear people knew not of themselves
"how to go out or come In." but must needs
become as little children and be led of God.
It is a testimonial, to the meek and conse
crated life of our leader, whose teaching has
roused this generation to a clearer comprehen
sion of the saving, healing mission of Jesus
the Christ, snd It gives glorious evidence that
God Is with men and that the demonstration
of his loving redemption of the children of
men Is at hand. In the presence at this we
cannot be proud, we cannot give or receive
congratulations, we can only be' grateful and
endeavor to live such lives ss may be worthy
01 me great trust given to us.

who presents Miss ElMer In Julia Mar
lowe s complete original production of
wearies atajors well-known novel. "When
Knighthood Was In Flower." After the
sorrow and tragedy of some of Miss dia
ler's former roles, her Mary Tudor, who
is a creature of smiles and pretty contra
diction, -comes as a welcome relief to
the player. Playgoers, too. will doubtless
enjoy MUs dialer's new role -the more
because of the strong -contrast to her pre
ceding parts. Not only does the play
built from the novel have a, happy end
ing, but. In the words of the fairy tale,'
"the Princess and her lover lived happily
ever aner. it is a Historical fact that
Mary Tudor" marriage to the humble
Suffolk squire, Charles Brandon, proved
an Ideal match In a day when marriage
was not the exalted Institution .it la now.
The cast includes many of New Tork'i
best-known actors and actresses, while
the splendid costumes ' and wonderful
stage settings are exact reproductions
from antique originals now in the mu
seums of England and France. In which
countries the play is laid. Our theater
goers can therefore expect a rare treat.
Seats are now selling; for the three per
formances. .
Charles B. Hanford Coming;.

engagement at the Marquam Grand The
ater next Friday and Saturday evenings,

Taming of tie Shrew," which will he the

chant of Venice" Saturday night. Mr.
Hanford's breezy and blustering Petru
chlo, and also his artistic, portrayal of
Benedick, have been seen and enjoyed to
me utmost by Portland theater-goers.
Both will well bear repetition. There Is
keen Interest In Mr. Hanford's Sbylock In
True Merchant of Venice." a role which
bax had many exponents, but few really
great ones. Those who have seen Ban
ford In the character say that he Is one
of the few who can stand comparison
with Henry Irving. Seats will bo placed

Msyfield to examine the steer when the disease first began to show, and be
pronounced It lumpy Jaw. The owner allowed the disease to run about a month
and then the steer was killed, la order to prevent the rest of the herd from being
infected.
The steer wss in prime condition when killed, but had arrived at that stsge
when It would soon have begun to fall, as It was becoming din cult for le to
feed. The abscess, which had formed on the Jaw. had not broken through the
skin. Mr. Mayfleld said that If the steer had not been killed the abscess would
have Increased In size until It became a running sore, and in the course ot two
or three months It would have died of starvation, as it would have been unable
to eat.
As can be seen In the engraving, the bone Is very much enlarged, besides be
ing decayed. It Is completely honeycombed where the bacilli have cut through
It, in every direction. The disease decays human bones In the same manner,
and when once it gets Into the bones, it is almost impossible to cure It. There
Is only one case on record where the lungs were affected that the patient re
covered. While It is not a frequent disease among cattle, it is by no means
uncommon, and It occurs among range cattle more frequently than among stall,
fed animals.

no prominent office In the departments,
although It Is well recognized at the Sen

Henry H. Gllfry. of Portland. Legisla
tive clerk of the United States Senate.
has held Government office In Washing
ton longer than any other Oregonlan now
here. He came to this city .In June, 1S73,
and went to the clerk's desk of the Sen-
at on the 1st of the following December,
where he has served continuously ever
since. In those days Mr. Gllfry was leg
islative clerk and reading clerk combined,
but' of late, so great became the neces
sity for a reading clerk, that a special
officer was appointed for the purpose, and
now me Oregon man Is relieved from ail
reading, save for occasional roll calls.
The office of legislative clerk Is one of
the most exacting. If not the most exact.
ins. connected with the Senate. Accuracy
Is demanded above all things, primarily,
Mr. Gllfry has charge ot the officUl cop
ies ot all pending bills, both those Intro
duced In the Senate and those that may
be passed by the House. When such bills
are called up tor consideration, he must
be In attendance and accuritely record all
amendments that are adopted and any
changes of phraseology that may be or
dered. Even down to punctuation, he
must follow the dictates of the Senate.
The Importance of this Is recognized when
it is known that the omission or mis
placing of a single comma In a bill so im
portant as a tariff measure may change
the purport of a clause, and mean thou
sands of dollars to the Government or to
commercial Interests. In Mr. Gllfry's
time the Senate has passed five tariff
bills, the act ot 1SS1. known as the tariff
commission bill, the Mills bill, which
never became a law; the Dlngley bill, the
Wilson bill and the McKInley ' bill. It
was upon Mr. Gllfry that the Senate re
lied for having these bills properly en
rolled and signed by me President of the
Senate. No one who has not been pres
ent In the Senate when Important meas
ures are being amended, after a sharp
contest cin appreciate the difficulty of
keeping up with the proceedings, and tell
ing accurately Just what amendments are
adopted, how they are adopted, and what
eliminations are made, so complicated do
the proceedings become. There are tew
men holding public office who can point
to so clean and creditable a record as Mr.
Gllfry. It Is said that never, during his
time, has a single .bill been erroneously
engrossed, and what Is equally creditable,
during the S years and more ot his serv
ice he has been absent from his desk but
three days when the Senate was In ses
sion, and then on account of Illness. In
thit long period he has been late at the
sessions ot the Senate but once, and that
when the Senate, by special order, con
vened at II o'clock Instead of at noon, as
la customary, and even on that occasion
the legislative clerk was at his desk a
few minutes after 1L He had overlooked
the special order of the diy before.
Senate's Prlntlnrc Clerk.
Another responsible office connected
with the Senate that Is filled by an Ore
gonlan Is that of printing clerk, now neid
by William B. Turner, of Portland. Mr.
Turner came to Washington about four
years ago, with Senator McBride, and
was soon appointed to his present office.
He has hid charge, not only ot all offi
cial printing ordered by the Senate, but of
the binding ot public documents, on the

Oregon Is well represented In the General
Land Office, even though lbs highest offi
cer. Commissioner Dinger Hermann, has
severed his connection with the Depart

state In the National capital In a new ca
pacity. All of the- Oregonlans now In this
office are in the classified service, having
been appointed under the merit system,
whleh protects them during good service.
Benjamin- Irving, of Salem, has occu
pied a clerical position In the Land Office
since 1SD0. He was for 12 years a teacher
and two years superintendent of the State
Deaf Mute School at Salem. Mr. Irving
married the daughter of Lewis Stout, of
Mehama. and resides In this city with his
family.
Some of the knotty le.al questions that
come before the Land Office for solution
are referred to Fred C Deiendorf. who
practiced law In Roeeburg for two years
before taking a law. position In the In
terior Department. It is a part of his
duty to prepare Intricate decisions for
the signature of the Commissioner, and
I to be ever ready to advise with bureau
chiefs as to points of law when contests
are pending.
