Eddy, and to Inquire into her sanity, was withdrawn yesterday by the senior counsel for that side, former Senator William XL ChanJlsr. The Mewe believes that this action will be a surprise to very few and a disappointment to still fewer. For uraelrss, we ere frankly glad that Mrs. Eddy has eomt so well out of it and that ths fortune she has a massed will remala under hor own personal control. Kot that tha News las Christian Belts c journal. Vary far from It We simply f that Mrs. Eddy's public life bus been one to entitle her to decent treatment, and that It was not decent treatment for aer rolor tlvea, who bad dons absolutely nothing to help her to the work that has built op bar fortuno, to seek to prove her Insane boos use she did not distribute It to their liking. And that, so far as wt could sse, was shout tho hauls of ths suit. And the funniest part of all this procusdlaC was to stuck Mrs. Eddy's business accounts to tho purposs of proving bar mental Incompetence. If there Is any point on which Mrs. Eddy to not only not Insane, but iu saner them tbs vast majority of ns can ever hope to be, It Is In the handling ot her business. Mark Twain, who Is by no mesas as unduly tavombls Judge, and who has won and lost several fortunes himself, soberly declares hla belief that Mrs. Eddy baa the beat business bead of any woman on earth. There her Judgments are as near flawless as it is given human things to be. And to ths larger business of administration, of. picking her assistants, of codifying her creed, of marking out a regimes for her church which should keep dlscipllue without being repellent, Mrs. Eddy has uhown herself out of tha grout minds of the day. The church which she founded a generation age baa now rlosa to 1,000,009 adherents, and these ere for the moat part among the moot Intnlll-pvend beat educated of our population. And over thle grant body of new converts lira. Eddy exercises a control more absolute to mattora of faith than doea the Pope ever the vast and venerable Catholic church. Wo doubt if the congregation which assembles every Sunday morning to the Christian Science church can be matched to combined weight of numbers and trained Intelligence to any ether church. One may accept or reject the claims which the Christian Scientists make for thslr faith, but w feel that a church which cau muster such a body of adherents to worth respectful consideration, and that the woman who could found and keep control of inch a church does not need to he examined an to her sanity. . nt among tho few. that hones' y is tha best pulley.
