A HEAVY SEN'I'l-IV(‘E.»~The prisonerl Graham convicted of the very serious offence with which he was charged at the Berlin mains this week, was sen- tenced by the presiding judge toaterm of imprisonment for life. It appears‘ that he had been Convicted some years ago of a similar ull‘ence and had served a term of imprisonment and received twenty lashes. The whipping in his case did not seem to yield any gOud result so that the -life imprisonment will at any rate protect society from his depredations in future.The sentence is a very heavy one but fully warranted under the eircutustances. Offences of this kind seem to he on the increase and must be put down with a. strong hand WsTr:m.oo I',irvcLr:Ci,cisNcyrrii. . 0:1 Monday evening about twenty members of the Bicycle club met in the hand room.

A very instructive and helpful lee. ture on "The Inspiration of the Holy Scriptures" was delivered by Bishop Thomas Bowman of Chicago in the Evangelical church last Saturday eve- ning. r The Bible, he said, was a unique set of books, composed during Ifi00 years, by men of all ranks and of varied abil- ity, and still possessed peculiar harm- ony of doctrine: l. The Bible claims to he inspired. (1.) The Old Testament authors spoke and wrote to the people the mind of God as they received it from God. The word of 3:: Lord came unto Moses, Samuel, vid, Elijah, Isaiah, J ere- miah, Ezekiel kc. (2.) The N. T. authors quote from all parts of the Old Testament as the word of God. Jesus saw in it the promise of his Messianic Misrion and repelled the at- tacks of Satan by quotations there. from. A “The Apostles always quoted from the Old Tasman“ Y theryord of God. II Timothy, 3:16. "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for "tproof, for correction, foejnstruetiott in righteous- -riebrews Il. "God, who at sundry times and in. gdivers manners spoke in time put. iif the ttgut the he", ha ' in these has P spok- mnto has byjfhia Ion." _.

Uhurcn items. ’.T: may; my it! the Norman. Sea- home for the maneandoubtitsbeing of God. No lie or fraud could produce such results. If go better believe theglie. This iniht- ence is noticeable in every sphere of human life. The Bible is becoming more popular, is being more studied, every day. In the last 79 years Ue American Bible Foeiety has issued 56, 000,000 copies of Scripture in 243 dif. ferent languages. Similar facts can be shown from the other societies III. The last argument. used by the speaker was what might be called the test argument. "Jt any man will do his will he shall know of the doctrine whether it be of God." It is not one which will will convince the sceptic but one which tratishes the believer. The word of God is venturesome. It touches a great range of experience. It dives into man's heart and tells him he is a great sinner, and that there is no hope for him till his heart is made right. - "n tells how Jesus came to bear for us the load of our sin and give us pelee. -. . ' I It promises the Holy Spirit to change our wicked natures and to give us hearts of light and love. It becomes to the trustful obedient follower Christ a lamp unto his feet and a light unto his path. Only those who have found it such can testify to its worth. The evidence of the sceptic is here worthless The lecturer was careful to state that the writers of the Bible were not mere tools when they wrote hut wrote in the full freedom of all their faculties without constraint or compulsion, The meeting was well attended and the lecture was much appreciated. Terrible "tttttt of James tune. or Stl Jacobs. from Ilyllrophobm [lull-Iv years Mo. A correspondent says '. The present mad dogscare in Waterloo and Berlin recalls the terrible death from hydrophobia of James Cane who lived about halfway between tit. Jacobs and Elmira some 30 years ago. It had been. known that a. mad dog was in the neighborhood hut his whereabouts ‘wus not kan. One morning (lune who was a day laborer got up about 5 o'clock to go to his work when he saw a strange dog lying on his doorstep and which infused to go away when ordered to do so. Cane went to the barn for an ax passing the brute unmolested and tried to despatch him. The dog showed light and in the struggle which follow- ed Cane seized the animal by the throat and held him until his wife killed him with the axe; Cane was slightly bitten but a doctor taking the necessary pre- cautions no serious results were feared. But the man who was somewhat ad- dicted to the use of strong drink was severely cautioned, by the medical man who attended him not to indulge in any stimulants for a certain stated time. He forgot himself on one occasion and an agonizing death was the penalty, Such a death must be simply horrible. It the writer of this, then a young boy was haunted for a long time afterward only from hearing a graphic description of this unfortunate man’s last two days what must, they have been to the man himself. It took four men to hold him when the mania would come on him and at last he had to be fastened to his bed. These frenzied spells, during which he gnsshed his teeth, frothed at the mouth and bit about him increased in tre.. quency and violence until death put an end to the scene. During his lucid in tervals he spokequite rationally deplored his terrible condition and even advised those about him how to manage him when the spells came on. HOMER ,‘ WATSON'S PAINT- INGS.
