A. Fatal Case la New Jrs?y lo Be Ilrocch Into Court. There will soon bo tried in IM verton N. J., a case which promises to be ona of the most important whi h bav como leforo tho courts in many years. It invol es points which, if tho pr.se c. tion is successful will practically end t! o practi e of tho doctrine known as Chr frt an S ienco in tho I nited .tatos. jt will at ka t bo a 1 ng t-tep in thai directi n. localizing this tho Selenti t i are going to make a great fiht, and o;) ost d to tho n iind o ually determined a o the doct'.T.-. J'ack of it all is tho death b .- cc ns ht ption of a vo ng woman named Sadie Bell, of liiverton. Sadio Legan to co.?gh about ten m .) ;t lis ago. A ph s-ki.-.n was conmlt d an t d'.-clareJ the girl to I o in the ca dy etag s of consumption. Ho thought it po-ib'o fur her to bo cured provided the cliso-t attention wa en to her mediealp.-. c ne of Sadie's iriends, licating of her illr.c??, sent Mrs. Bessie T. Clonn, a Christian scienti-t. to her, anil after ono sitting with the girl tho latter wa so in-prcs-ed with a lelicf in the woman's power that she t o'd her parents they had better tell the physician r.ot to call a .rain. This they did and Sadie f und herself sold, in the hands of t':c w.nnan. Sadie's -rugh grew worse. Fut still she ha 1 farth in Mrs. dlcnn and that woman intitnatei th .t she sh.ould havo s-me recompense, although sho had cleclared that she never toi k money. In ail was j:iven h r. Midie ad the t ine g tiiig wor.-e. A f v.- weeks ago Sadie died. Mrs. d!enn wa v.ut cmjo cnt to give a ccrflicate of death, and when tho local physician was apca'cel to he tefused, rs"it wa n ,t his cao anl : o Sadie's death had to bo repoit?d to the tori n r. In New .Ter-t-ey ihere is a law whidi piovides that a 1 crson wiio practices faith euro cr under the jjuise of Christian sciencj attempts t make cores by religious means. comiRits a crime and must bo punished by not lo s than thit ty days in ,'ail nor less than 0 lir e. So when the facts of tho ca o came to the knowledge of the jurymen, they were but a short time coming to tho conclusion that Sadie Fell would havo lived l-.nger had a roular physician bean employed and having roof that Mrs. GlonnVas a pract;c!n ? Christian Scientist t-he was held in bail to await tho action of tho grand jury. When her caso comes up in court the interest of m ny erssons throughrut the country wi i center in the littlo New Jersey town, and i Mrs. Glenn is convicted und pent to prison it will be tho grea'est blow Christian Science could receive Other States, too, may take counsel from New Jersey and law of a similar nature may go on tho itatuto books all over tho United States.
