WITCHCR1FT IN THE SEVEN
TENTH CENTURY

The supernatural machinery inter
woven with the tragedy Of "Macbeth !"
is founded on superstitious belief
which was entertained during Shake
speare's lifetime by all classes, both In
England and Scotland. In q sermon
which Bishop Jewel preached before
Elizabeth, he beseeched her grace to
understand that witches and sorcerers
had marvelously increased within the
realm, and that through their malevo-
lence her grace's snbjects often pinned
away, even unto death; their color fad
ing, their flesh rotting, their speech de-
MED, and their senses obscured. If any
adversely, grief, sickness, loss of chill
dren, of corn, cattle, or other posses
sions happened to any one, witches were
blamed for it. The Queen herself,
"being under excessive anguish by
pains of her teeth, in 80 much that she
took no rest for divers nights" Mrs.
DER was accused of having brought ON
the affection by conjuration and witch
craft If there was thunder storm or
gale of wind, one or two witches were
seized and burned as a preventive for
the future.
This popular frenzy was much encour-
aged by the publication, at Edinburgh,
in 1897, of n work entitled "Daemonolo-
gie," by no less an author than King
James himself. This treaties owed its
origin, it is said, to discovery which
the King had made, that when he went
to Denmark, in 1890, there was a con-
spiracy of two hundred witches to drown
him on his return. A London edition of
the "Daemonologie was issued in 1903
the preface to which speaks of "the
fearful Astounding at this time of these
detestable slaves of the devil, the witches
or enchanters. The Legislature lent its
sanction to the belief in statute against
witches, which was passed soon after the
accession of James, and was not repealed
till 1879, it was enacted that any one who
should practice any invocation or con-
Duration of am evil or wicked spirit, Or
consult, covenant with, entertain or en-
ploy, feed or reward any such evil or
wicked spirit or who should take up
any dead men, woman, or child out of
the grave, or the skin, bone, or other
part of any dead person, to be employed
in any manner of witchcraft, sorcery,
charm, or enchantment,. whereby any
person shall be killed, destroyed, wasted,
consumed, pinned or famed In body such
offenders, ON being Gully convicted, shall
suffer death. The persons suspected of
witchcraft were for the most part old,
lame, blear-eyed, and wTinkled women,
who led sullen and solitary lives. Col

Mad Vol res.

Talking of Texas, did you ever hear
about the wolves they have therel They
are ugly-looking fellows, but do not
attack people unless provoked. They go
mad more commonly than dogs do, and
in that state will give other animals
hydrophobia. 1 heard some army
officers say that once when they were
stationed in Texas, mad wolf got into
their encampment and bit six of their
dogs. Poor dogsl There were twenty
four of them at that time in the encamp-
ment, but for safety sake, they were,
every one of them, shot the next morn
