Fully five thousand people were pros- ent yesterday at the dedication of the new million-dollar edifice of the First Church of Christ, at Ninety-sixth street and Central Park ‘West. It was such an audience as one’ sees at an all-stur grand opera matinee. The women were} gowned as handsomely as money could) attire them, the men equally as fash-| fonable. Nowhere could such a show of Gress have been aeen but in New York, It was an Intellectual-looking gather- ing, an@ every one who attended the services went to listen to the Christian Scientists. It has been/said by artists that there fs not another duflding in the country like this church, and as for the Interior decoartons, the Institute of American Architects has given them its highest indorsement. Mrs, Stetson Presided. Mrs, Augusta EB, Stetson, founder of the cult in New and for fifteon years first reader of the congregation, dedicated the church. It ta to her that credit is given for raising the money which built it. She said yesterday that the total sum was $1,185,000. Every cent had been given freely and voluntarily, and as an Indication of the efficacy of prayer this remarkable woman pointed to the fact that thé bullding had been put up under conditions which had paralyzed the construction industry. “During ‘the four years since tho lay- ing of this corner-stone, on Nov. 27, 1899," she sald, “every demand for mon skilled workmen and the best materials has been readily met, notwithstanding the fact that work on all public and private buildings under process of erec- the past six months hes equently stopped, owing to the disturbances between capital and Iabor, How Money Was Raised. “At no time has work been suspended on this building, In spite of financial stringency and ‘eat depression in busi- conubuted for the erection of this edifice have been vol- untary and éheerf\') donations, amount. ing to $1,186,000, all from members. of this church ‘and students of the New york « ‘an pelance Insutute,”’ Telegrams of congratulation were re- ceived from Christian Science churches all over tite country aral among out- alders who recognized the dedication was Gov. Odell, who telegraphel his best wishes. Of course there was a head of the sest in Boston and who is called “the Mother of the Church. Whenever she was spoken of yester- ‘;| day in print the personal pronoun “her” was spelled with a capital. Sa « SMOKE MENACES TOWN. Sulphnous Vapor that Envelops Place Cannot Be Explalued.
