NEW RELIGION TO REIGN.
Dr. Eliot Predicts the Coming of aGed
God of Reason.
Cambridge , Mass. , July 29. Charles
. Eliot , ex-president of Harvard ,
prophesied the advent of a new re-
Iglon in an address before the Har

"It will not be bound by dogma or
creed , " he said. "Its workings will be .
simple , but its field of action limitless. ut
discipline will be the training in
development of co-operative good
will. It will attack all forms of evil.
There will be no supernatural element lic
It will place no reliance on any
thing except the laws of nature. Pre
vention will be at
the watchword and a
skilled surgeon one of its "members. "
The coming religion , Doctor Eliot
, will be based on the two great
commandments , the love of God and for
service of fellow men.
"The new religion , " he said , "will to
be based upon authority , the future
generation is to be led , not driven. In
new religion there will be no per-
Bonification of natural objects , there fire
be no deification of remarkable
human beings. the
"The new religion will not teach
character can be changed quickly.
will not deal chiefly with sorrow and
death , but with joy and life.
"God will be so imminent that no the
Intermediary will be needed. Its
priests will strive to improve social
industrial conditions. The new re-
llgion will not attempt to reconcile re
to present ills by the promise of ing
future compensations. "

Rigid News Censorship.

imposes on the news service from
Spain and Melllla. One of the news

King Alfonso hastened back to Madrid

a decree proclaiming martial law nnd
the suspension of constitutional guar

Bloody Battle With Moors.

of twenty-one olllcers and a total of
200 Spaniards killed or wounded. An
exact estimate of the dead and woundwrlttc

owing to the rigid censorship which j

The government admits , however ,
that rioters have been killed and
