"every vestige of idolatry have been
swept away from the districts in NADIA
gascar in which he labors, and yet that
they are great believers in charms, super
stitions and withcraft. 1t was reported
that a dog had spoken and had announced
that hurricane, causing grievous famine,
would devastate the district; that i'm.
mense hailstones would descend, and that
even the heavens would fall To avert
this the people were told to get six black
and six white beads and to wear them
round the neck and no harm would come
to them. Soon after this men, women and
children were seen with twelve beads
strung around their necks. The fear OF
witches and witchcraft is great evil
among this people. They are not idola.

Of water stopped the Woodward saw mill neAr

near Bennet's Branch, at Tyler's, in order to gel
water for their tanks.
Bark is shipped when cars can be obtained,
which Is not as often as needed.
A protracted meeting held in the NJ. Z. church
for month closed last week. Quite a number
professed conversion.
There have been three severe cases Of diphtheria
