LARGE AUDIENCE IS PRESENT
Speaker la Forrefal sad Flaeat, til
Presewta the Poetrlaes of the
f'sw la aa Able
Maaaer.
Mrs. Rue Harper Mlms of Atlanta. Oa.,
a member of the board of lecturers of the
Christian Science church, addressed an
audience at the Star theater veMerday
afternoon which, despite the Inclemency
of the weather, filled every seat In the
auditorium and the balcony. Mrs. Mlms
showed herself an easy and fluent speaker
and she retained the close attention of her
large audience from the opening to the
closing sentence of her address. The en
thusiasm which she displayed In the dls
cutMon and portrayal of Christian Science
lent force to her address and showed she
was thoroughly familiar with her subject.
"Christian Science is Jesus' transcend
entalism rnado practical aa He made It,"
declared Mrs. Mlms. and taking this as
the basis for her argument, said In part
as follows:
It Is sometimes said that Christian Science
la a very beautiful religion, "but It Is too
trarscendental for me." Is It not some
thing that transcends this poor, fleeting,
m&ttrlal existence that humanity longs for
and needs? Christian Science Is transcend
ental, because never was such a transcen
detitallst as Jr.-us Ills every act was a
transcending of material laws and func
tions. When He said. "Before Abraham
was, I am." "The Father and I are one,"
"Glorify thou Me with thine own self. oh.
my Father, with the glory which I hud
with Thee before the world was.'' He ut
tered the very acme of transcendentalism.'
Throughout the prorress of thought during
the centuries the great thinkers, seers end
the prophets have caught glimpses of th
great fact that the spiritual alone Is real.
Kant. Flchle. Onrlyle, all announce this
glorious glimpse of truth, and bevond this
that every ray of light from the infinite
source rarlfles the atmosphere of human
thought. It has no practical results for hu
manity. Jesus brought His transcendental
Ism down to ssd humanity to he: sick
bocMes, to comfort sorrowing hearts, to
ralBe the dead. and. Indeed, to transcend
every sense of love's limitations.
Materialism Blotted Oat.
Take, for Instance, those two statements.
"Before Abraham was. I am," and "Glorify
thou Me, oh, my Father, with Thine own
self, with the glory which I had with Thee
before the world was." Those two state
ments spiritually understood and held In
thought will heal any disease on earth.
As we dwell on them do they not abso
lutely blot out this poor material sense of
being, or belief of life apart from God.
this vapor, this dream, this shadowand
reveal the Ideal man's Indissoluble unltv
with hi Maker. This ideal man Is for
ever a priest after the order of Melchlse
dec, "without father or mother, without
beginning or end of days," taking away
the "sins of the world," destroying the
illusions Incident to a false, material sense
of being. This Ideal man dwells ever hi
the realm of matter, or evil, or sin, or
death never separated from, but always
In the bosom of the Father. In the Christ
mind or divine consciousness, reflecting
the Infinity of love and life and this Is.
and was, and ever will be, the only real
man.
Christian Science reasons from God to
man therefore the right way Is to start
with a clear concept of Go whom the
scriptures declare to be Infinite spirit,
mind. soul, omnipotent, omniscient and
then from that divine basis try to get some
glimpse of what man aa the image and
likeness of that God must be. If God Is
spirit, then man must be spiritual not
physical, he must Image or reflect divine
".wisdom, mind, power; in a word, he rndst
oe as Mrs. Eddy reveals, not phystqere. but
the "Idea of spirit." To dominate the flesh
and awake from the dream of life In mat
ter Is the Christian warfare and attain
ment "I shall bo satisfied when I awake
with Thy likeness."

nor Jurisdiction to send these men to
Jail, than the drunken eots-leungin; around
the saloon, that the police and deputy

The report of City Treasurer True, who,
under the new law, is also treasurer for
the Park board, shows that the park fund
la in excellent condition. On April 1. IMS,
the balance In the park fund was $0,510.i
and the receipts during the year were
U-'.SS.5S, while the disbursements were
$1 1(43 81 leaving a cash balance an hand
April 1, 190S of $7,502 43.
The difference between the amount ex
pended on ihe parks as shown in the
board's report and the disbursements as
shown in the treaaurer's statement Is ex
plained by the fact that aome warrants
iaaued by the board had not been paid by
the treasurer at the cloae of the fiscal
year. These warrants amounted to $o50 41.
A. C. Graham, chairman of tne board, in
his "fort ward" lo the report, compares
the cost of maintaining the parks In Coun
cil Bluffs with those in other cities tn thi
state. According to Chairman Graham the
records of the auditor of state show that
for the year !'j07-
iH-a Moltiea. with a park area of (7$ acres,
paid out t.a.24 for maintenance.
Sioux City, with a park area of 43 acres,
paid out $U.u53 for maintenance.
Burlington, with a park area of M acres,
paid out $7,152 for maintenance.
Council Bluffa. with a park area of S53
acres, paid out 4.533 for maintenance.
The above shows the coat per acre for
the year l.J7-K for maintenance of Council
Bluffs paika to be $101.
The average per acre for maintenance

They're here In all their beauty and

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Oct. 10 Speclal.)-A. C.
Miller, chairman of the Iowa Conservation
commission, believes the Dee Moines -river
not only may be made navigable, but that
It will be made navigable. Mr. Miller has
Just returned from the meeting of the Up
per Mississippi Rive Improvement conven
tion, held at Winona, Minn., and while
there he had a conference with Major
Rochet, who has charge of the government
work of Improving the Mississippi. Major
Rochet estimated that the Des Moines river
could be made navigable for $15,000,000 and
that the sale of water power sites along
the river would bring In to the government
$11,000000, making the net cost but $4,000,000.
As a result of the conference with Major
Rochet, Mr. Miller believes that a survey
of the Des Moines river will be recom
mended to the Improvement board. Major
Rochet will come to Des Moines in a few
days to make a further investigation and
will then confer with business men here.
One question stands In the way and that
Is whether the government or the adjacent
landowners would own the water power
rights. Hon. Jerry Sullivan of this city Is
now Investigating the legal phases of that
question and will give a brief and opinion
on the matter soon. Mr. Miller was placed
on the executive committee of the Improve
ment association.
To Drain Northern Iowa.
Most of no.thern Iowa must be drained
over again. The costly ditches that were
built with the Idea of draining the swamp
lands of northern Iowa have proved Inade
quate and It will be necessary for the next
legislature to act In the matter. Commis
sioner I. W. Keerl of Mason City and
Secretary George L. Dobson of the Iowa
Conservation commission leave tomorrow
on a tour of inspection through northern
Iowa to get Information to lay before the
lnext legislature In a report.
The fact that the ditches In northern
Iowa are more or let's of a failure has been
brought to the attention of the legislature
and the state officials before. It Is claimed
the ditches are too small and have not
enough fall and the construction la faulty
and many of them have filled up with mud,
end there are scores of other complaints
against them. The one fact Is undisputed,
that In most cases the ditches have failed
to drain the land as It was expected they
would, and something must be done to re
claim this swamp land.
Commissioner Keerl and Secretary Dob
son will make a tour of the entire northern
section of the state. They will take photo
graphs and will get the Original drawings
and specifications for the ditches when
possible and will endeavor to discover Just
what the trouble Is. It Is expected, too, to
secure the services of an expert drainage
engineer to look over the old ditches be
fore the report Is made to the legislature.
It Is claimed that the ditches first built
were surveyed by engineers who were not
drainage engineers, which account for the r
failure.
Watchlnar Telephone War.
All Iowa Is watching ..the. Des Moines
telephone fight. The lUusots courts have
held that the Bell system cannot buy up
an independent competing system. The
proposition has never been decided In the
Iowa courts, however, and the Independ
ent telephone business . In this state has
grown to such proportions that the de
cision, when It comes, will be one of great
Importance, not only to the Independent
company In Des Moines, but to those over
the state as well.
The hearing on the application for a tem
porary Injunction will be had before Judge
McIIenry next Friday In the- district court.
The Iowa company already has all but a
small fraction of the stock and bonds of
the Mutual company and the Mutual Is
being operated under its directions at this
time. The Iowa has submitted to a postal
card vote of the subscribers of the two
companies the question of whether or not
the two systems will be combined. Of
course, such combination must necessarily
depend on the motion ot the courts, aa
the case will be apealed to the supreme
court In any event.
The Iowa company has offered to make
the rates on the basis of the present Iowa
rates. This was at first taken aa mean
ing that the rate for a business 'phone
would be $t0, as It Is at present. Then
It was discovered that In. reality It would
be about $102 a year because of the In
creased number of 'phones the enlarged
system would have. In the meantime the
city offlcltls have asked the people to
delay the matter till the city solicitor has
had time to Investigate the legal phases
of the question. It Is not unlikely that the
city may become an ina-rvenor In the
suit.
Attorneys are Investigating now to as
certain if there Is not some way of throw
ing the Mutual company Into the hands
of a receiver In order to get It out of the
hands of the Iowa. It Is charged that
the Iowa is liable to get the Mutual
equipment and services run down In order
to throw all the subscribers over to the
Iowa.
In any event It Is claimed that the situa
tion here will throw the matter Into the
hands of the legislature next winter and
that some legislation looking to a solu
tion ot the problem Is almost certain.

CHINESE START A BOYCOTT
Vlralrat Circular Seeks to Enflame
the People Aaalnat the
Japanese.
TOKIO, Oct. 11. Copies of circulars Issued
In north China by a body of Chinese, call
ing themselves the popular association of
the three eastern provinces," have been
received In Japan, after having been spread
broadcast among Chinese of the lower
classes. The circulars contain Inflamma
tory statements against the Japanese.
They bear upon what la called the weak
ness of poor Chins and "the Insulting ac
grexsions of Japan." 1
Assertions are made that Japan has de
vastated the lands of north China, has
enslaved laborers along the line of the
Antung-Mukden railroad, that the officials
have beaten the men, Ui milted the women
and terrorised the people.
The circulars point out that the weakness
of China in a military sense makes It Im
possible for It to resent this treatment ex
cept by a boycott and call upon the people
of China generally to refuse all dealings
with the Japanese.
