Jackman's New Cult Special Dispatch to The Call CHICAGO, Dec 20.—“Paradise” now appears as a rival to “Zion.” The Rev. Mabel A. Jackman, indict- ed for obtaining money fraudulently through alleged ‘‘fake” spiritualism and discharged several weeks ago by Judge Chetlain, has organized the “Church of Scientific Christianity,” a new religious cult, imitating many fea- tures of Dowie’'s Zion.

Mabel,” not to be left hehind by Zion's general overseer, styles herself the ‘“general shepherdess of Paradise.” Two yrars ago Mabel Jackman was successfully prosecuted by the State Board of Health for practicing medi- cine without a license, according to Charles G. Hoffman, assistant counsel for the board. “This woman was practicing what she called magnetic healing when she first came to our attention,” said Hoff- man. “The fact that she used the title ‘Doctor’ and had no license to practice was enough to start us in an investigation. We sent a woman In- spector to her place on the North Side. The Inspector pretended to have a number of ailments. “‘Dr.’ Jackman promised to cure her. In this way we obtained informa- tion of her ‘healing’ methods. “I am working in God’'s name,” sald Mabel Jackman to The Call corre- spondent to-day. “I bought that church property. paying $20,000 for it, and was ready to build a year ago, when the 1roquois fire and the new building reg- | - 240,000 EGGS Remarkable Order Is to Be Placed in Canada by an Ex- pert Packer From Klondike 6000 CASES .

TACOMA, Wash., Dec, 20.—Stanley Cearce has left Dawson for Canada to purchase 20,000 dozen eggs and pack them for shipment to Dawson early next summery In accomplishing this Cearce announces his intention of showing Canadians how eggs should be packed. For this purpose he will buy 6000 empty egg cases in Chicago and ship them to Toronto, where he will pro- vide a cold storage plant for the pack- ing and storing of the eggs prior to shipment to the Klondike. He will buy his eggs on the Canadian side to escape payment of duty. Besides this | financial advantage Cearce has found | that Canadians sell eggs which are second to nome in the world, but they are greatly behind in the art of egg packing. .This deficiency, Cearce says, i= due to the difficulty which the Can- adian packers have in getting abso- lutely dry lumber for egg boxes. Lumber which is even slightly damp will convey a foreign flavor to eggs. e Filmer Is Commissioned.
