The story which comes from
Reading, Pa, of the ecstatic visions
seen by young girl who was bap-
tized in ice-cold water has a familiar
sound 1t is only a new version of
the old mania which comes upon
certain temperaments and it is only
The credulous who viii put any
faith in such visions The truth is
that this young woman is in an
abnormal condition, with which ex-
perts in neurology are very ia
miliar. 1t is much more common
than it used to be, because the
people of our day and generation
have the nervous system far more
developed than their grandfathers,
without the compromising balance
of robust physique. The most
extraordinary feature of the case is
that the preacher. whose stupidity
brought this infiction upon his
convert. should claim that these
visions have any spiritual signifi-
canoe. It is an instance of fanat-
icism which, fortunately, is grow
ing scarcer every year.

ameter silk possesses . tenacity ~

has been made it is centered upon

cover the surface in the form Of a
helix, by means of guides. without
leaving any space between the

coated with guttapercha or hard

SUBURBAN NOTES.
Ferry Village.


How 10 Catch Rogues" will be the subject
of Rev. John Collins discourse at the M. e.
Church, Sunday afternoon.
Capt. G. O. Babbidge, formerly resident of
this village, is dangerously sick with consump-
ton at his home in Winterport, and is is
thought he cannot long survive.
Bewery Keach.
Your correspondent, On Wednesday, visited
the schooner Eliza Ann, stranded on Trundy's
Reef, Cape Elizabeth's Devils Bridge"
Ever since the disaster the captain has kept
sail on his vessel in futile effort to force her,
with her cargo of granite, across dry land into
deep water. He has now abandoned this
project and has employed gang of men from
the shore to strip her. Her sails, which are
pretty much all new, have been unbent and
taken ashore. Where she lies, the tide Gibbs
entirely away from her, leaving her sitting
perfectly upright and in quite easy position.
The vessel is built with heavy projecting
bilge streaks, and these, and the keel, alone
taking the rocks, have saved the rest of the
hall from other injury than very bad strain
ing caused by the weight of the cargo. It is
probable that had the deckload, consisting of
some twenty-five or thirty tons of granite,
been promptly jettisoped, the captain would
have succ eeded in sailing his vessel from the
rocks the following high tide after stranding.
Her cargo OF dressed granite is a valuable one
and was intended, 1 believe, for the pedestal of
the Bartholdi statue OF Liberty.
