Eddy, acknowledged head of the American Christian Sci- ence Church, has created quite a stir among the followers of Christian Sci- ence throughout the State. Accord- ing to J. Jacobs, who represents Frank W. Gale, the edict issued by Mrs. Eddy has been misunderstood by the general public and the facts in the case have not been stated correctly. The follow- ing communication was sent to The Call yesterday by order of Gale: San Francisco,.Cal., Oct. 8, 1904. Editor of The Call, San Francisco, Cal. Dear Sir:—Referring to the article | published in this morning’s issue of ycur paper, in case there might be a mistaken impression regarding same, 1 should like you to publish the follow- ing: t’:!‘he Christian Science by-law refer- ring to members of the Christian Sci- ence Church, belonging to clubs or or- ganizations to which both sexes are not eligible, was promulgated last May. As published by you, the by- law indicates on its face that it is not retroactive, but applies to mem- bers of the mother churth who may | Join thereafter. It applies to the branch churches in the same way. Hence, there were no ‘“‘orders” or ‘commands” given, which would ap- ply to members of clubs or organiza- ' tions who were Christian Science members at that time. It is'true that throughout the coun- try many Christian Science members, both ladies and gentlemen, prominent tin clubs and organizations, have seen fit to resign their memberships, be- lieving that what applied to. future Christian Science members could, with good reason, be applicable to present members. These resignations, how- ever, were entirely voluntary on their part, and under no “orders” or “com- mands.” Such action on their part was, possibly, because they believed tk could best subserve their interests and that of their families and their own consciences, and such action was purely a matter of their own decision, without interference, commands or or- ders from any one. Shortly after the adoption of the by- law referred to, Mrs. Eddy issued a card, published in the Christian Sci- ence Journal of June, 1904, reading as follows: { “Take Notice. “Mary B. G. Eddy. “I beg to inform my beloved mem- | bers of the mother church that the ! by-law in article XXVI of its man- | ual does not require members of benevolent and progressive organiza- | tions, such as the Free Masons, Odd | Fellows, temperance societies and those of similar cult, to resign this membership. It specifies in plain Eng- lish that after individuals become members of our church they shall not thereafter ‘be made’ members of clubs or other organizations not named in its manual, and wherefore? Because our religious denomination demands | the faithful attention and labor of its | members in all philanthropic, ther- | apeutic and progressive Christian work | for the human and relies upon | the adequate, scientific source and re- | source therefor.” ! Trusting you will give this space in your journal, I remain, yours sincerely, FRANK W. GALE. ——— CORONER INVESTIGATES A SPURIOUS DOCTOR C.

Heath of 3 om street, who, prescribed for three weeks for Mrs. Mary Kruse of 321 Montcalm street. Mrs. Kruse died yesterday morning of natural causes presumably, but the e was sent to the Coroner, because Heath, not being a physician, could not and would not sign the death cer- tifi ¢. Deputy Brown secured the bot- ties medicine bearing labels of va- rious drug stores, which medicines had | been brought to Mrs. Kruse by Heath. | | The 1abels contain directions for tak- |ing the medicines, but are not signed, and do not purport to be prescriptions, J. The matter was repnorted to the po- lice yesterd: and Detective Thomas Coleman detailed on the case, the ! | object being to ascertain whether Heath had represented himself to be a physician. Heath treated Mrs. | Kruse's husband previously for corns | and rheumatism. Mrs. Kruse was 37 years old and leaves four children, the youngest 2| years and the oldest 15. | i s H i Cuts Off Water Supply. : | Andrew G.

He reiterates that he is the son of the deceased, notwith- standing the statement to the con- trary made ‘by his supposed mother, Anna Monnier, on the witness stand when she obtained special letters of administration upon the estate.

He declares that the testament was made under the undue influence of Anna Monnier. His fa- | | ther, he says, at the time of making | the will, in 1901, was 63 years of age | and impaired in body and mind. His wife for years had exercised great in- flrence with him and held author'ty over him. George Jr. continues that on March | 4. 1897, he married Violet Henry and | since that time Anna Monnier has | shown hatred and bitterness toward | the young man's wife. Shortly after the marriage the senior Mrs. Monnier attempted, and she continues to at- tempt, it is said, to separate the con- testant and his wife and prior to the making of the will she threatened that | it they did not separate she would | cause the elder Monnier to disinherit George Jr. A week after the marriage, it is alleged, she importuned the contestant to leave his wife and by reason of her | persuasions he remained away from | | | kis wife for two weeks, but returned later and then accompanied the elder Wwoman to Hurope, leaving his wife here. While he was absent, on De- cember 18, 18 the young wife gave birth to a child and Monnier charges that Anna Monnier caused to be pub- lished a notice that the child was dead and. though knowing that the babe was still alive, had a copy of the | notice sent to the contestant in Eu- rope.
