Nm K,,ro's HisroRy OF THE BIBLE

Dr.. KIrro's HISTORY OF THE BIBLE.
The sgent for this valuable work Is
now in Wheeling. We hope that many
of our citizens will embrace the oppor-
tunity of obtaining it, as it is a work
that should be in every family. The
following should commend it to public
favor:
DR.. Kitto's writings are well known.
Theological and Bible students are
largely indebted to him. His History
of The Bible" suits all classes, especially
those who have not the time to study or
the money to buy the heavier works OF
this class. To the Sunday School
teacher, to the minister of the Gospel,
and, in fact. to all in any way interested
in the Book of books, DR.. Kitto's history
will be found OF very great value. l
cheerfully commend it to all such.
HENRY C. WEsTwooD, D. D.,
Pastor Fourth Street NJ. E. Church.
Wheeling, West Va.
There is probably no work OF the
kind better suited to the wants OF Sun
day school and Bible class teachers,
and ind eed of any students ofthe Bible,
than DR.. Kitto's. l hope that a num-
Der of people will take it.

many more arc in the most imminent

What was called Shenandoah city, a

likely to stand. But the old machine
shop, Just above 1t, went an hour ago, car
rying one more victim, Nn old man, a ma
ChiniSt, who lived in the building and
would not leave when he could. Several
of the buildings on the "Island," "near the
mill, including that Of tho Rev. DR.. Dut'

goto pieces atany moment. Among the
number Is also the residence Of MIR. Hath

all ofthe families Of the ISLAND" arc still

them. Some Of the houses, however, will
doubtless stand, and the islanders are
