Perhaps the best parrot story in ex
istence is the one, well vouched for in
history, concerning the Dresden par
rot which was instrumental in con
victing pair of murderers The par
rot was in the same room wit. an old
couple who were murdered one night
in their bed. The bird began making
a great cutlery when the old couple
were attacked by the assassins, and
when the latter tried to kill 1t, it es-
capped through window and perched
upon a tree in front Of the house. The
next morning when people began to
move on the street the bird was heard
to repeat tire words, Bloody murder ~
This led to the discovery Of the muir
dered couple, and two men were ar
rested on suspicion Of having commit
ted the murder. The parrot was
brought into court, where it recognlz-
ed the two men, making the most vio-
lent efforts to get at them, and eXhlb.
iting great rage. This 50 frightened
the superstitious murderers that they
confessed the crime, and were hung
for it.

| Tho Atlanta Presbytcry Unanimously On
posed to tho New Doctrine Taught in the
| Columbia Seminary.
FoRSrTH, Ca, October 20.-Thc
Atlanta Prcsbytory, recently in session
here, adopted, by unanimous vote,
the following overture to the Synod Of
Georgia in reference to Evolution as
taught in the Columbia Is. C.) Thco-
logical Seminary:
1t having been known, through Il
published address, which has received
the endorsement of the majority of the
Board Of Directors of the Columbia
Theological Seminary, that the doc
trinc of Evolution as contained in that
address, is, or will be taught in that
institution, which is partly under your
control, the Atlanta Preshvtcrv, for
the following reasons, earnestly over
lures the Synod to express its disap-
probation of such teaching, and to take
whatever steps may be necessary to
prevent it.
L. because evolution is an improved
scientific hypothesis.
:: because, even in the form pre-
sentcd i'll the address, the doctrine
BRINGS upon our church much of the
odium that attaches to the doctrine i'm
its worst form.
). because the Synod cannot afford
to make itself responsible for This doc
trinc in any of.its forms.
4. Because it is founded upon a mode
OF interpreting the Scriptures which
tends greatly to unsettlc the confidence
of our people i'll the correctness of the
word of God, and sets to our tLcologi-
| cal students dangerous example in
| cXcgcsiS.
5. Because it will unnecessarily aai-
tate and damage our church by am
excited and protractcd controversy.
| y. because 1t is contrary to the sense
IN which our standards have ALWAYS
been understood, and would make
necessary rcstatement of some of our
doctrines.
In regard to the action of the Board
OF Directors ofthc Seminary, the Pres
bytcry adopted the following rcsolu-
| ton:
ReSo1ccd, That the Atlanta Prcsbv-
terry most heartily approves the action
OF the Rev. DIR. Stacy and Col. George
w. Scott, members Of the Board of
Directors of Columbia Theological
Seminary and Of this Prcsbytcrv, in
entering their protest to the action OF
the majority Of the Board, as related
to the teaching of evolution in said
Seminary, which said action of the
majority 10 most cmphatically, con
demncd.
