Geological principles well understood by
the more intelligent Of the medical pro-
fession. While admitting, generally and
specially, the efficacy Of prayera as nnfolded
in the Bible, he fatty denies that the pro-
fessed cures Of modern times are, in any
proper sense Of the term, miraculous. He
very sharply draws the line between the
Spiritual Phenomena, " so called, and the
miracles of the Bible in these words: Nor
can they-these dealers in faith cases, y
-Magnetizers, Mormons, S~piritualists,
Protestants, etc.-give sight to one born
blind, nor healing TO one born deaf when
the cause of deafness is the absence of any
of the organs necessary to hearing. In
stances have been published where chill
dren who had lost their hearing by scarlet
fever or other disease, have been made to
hear by the manifestations of Spirituahsts,
or by the prayers of Catholics or Pro-
testants; but whether true or not, no case
which can be shown to be one of eongeni-
tai deafness OF blindness. e. born deaf
or bhnd-can be attested where sight or
hearing has been made possible by any
other than a surgical cause. Further,
none of them can restore q limb that has
been cut of, or an eye that has been lost, "
as in the case of Bible miracles.
Mr.. Buckley being O thorough believer
in the Christian religion, as taught in the
Scriptures, and q minister of the same,
does not deny the efficacy of prayer, but
holds to it in a very eminent but Scrip
tural sense. 1t is not necessary to sup
pose that the great majority of those who
believe in faith cures are dishonest.
Not at all. Indeed, some of them may be
the salt of the earth. But they are be-
lieved, ON this point, to be either self-de-
ceiyed, or misled by others.
The object of the present writer in cali
ing the attention of your readers to the
article in question, is not in the interest OF
seepticism-for which he has no sympa-
thy-but to guard the public mind against
one of the many prevailing delusiOns which
are alOat in the world at the present day.
1t may be thought that this effort
is superfluous, as no serious harm can re-
suit from such delusiOn. But all errors
are linked together, and n leads on to
another and still another, until down.
right insanity, or death, and an entire
wreck of all rational hope is the not intre-
quent result. Witness the late develop
ment of the Perfect" on Walnut Hills,
Cincinnati, worshipping a woman as Jesus

view of this matter, read the able article of

THE GENERAL SCHOOL FUND.
Col. Byrne Gives Reasons for the Increase
This Year.
E.,v,,.L., Ist-gVs

Learning that Col. Il. w. Byrne, eX-
State Superintendent of Free Schools, had
been looking into the reason for the great
increase this year in the general school
fund for distribution among the several
counties, we asked him if he would please
give us the result of his Investigations. He
replied rs follows:
Having once had charge of the school de
partment, | have ever since taken u lively
interest in the school finances of the state,
and when / saw that the distribution of
the State fund had risen from SlTT, 36S. 10,
the amount distributed on the 10th of June,
lSS5, to 1867, T2I.96 ON the 10th of June,
lSS6, l was curious to know how this WAS
brought about, and therefore entered upon
an investigation TO find its solution.
found. first, that Auditor Duffy had
adopted the rule of giving the general
school fund credit for its share oil all col
~lections however small, as fast rs the sher-
ifs paid in money. What was collected
for the general school fund was credited TO
that fund, and used for no other purpose.
Secondly, it appeared from the Auditors
books that the sheriflS OF many counties
were very largely in arrears to the general
school fund for the taxes levied for the
year lSS4, amounting to much more than
500. 900, rs is shown by the fact that the
Auditor has collected from the assessment
for iSSi. since the distribution on the 10th
June. lsS5, S1lO,O75.O5 WI ich went into
this fund for distribution Of 10th June,
lSS6. Besides there were large arrearagcs
due the general school fund for many years
prior to 1881.
A considerable amount of which the
Auditor has succeeded in collecting by SUIT
and otherwise, and placing 10 the credit OF
this fund, amounting TO 81, 7l,78. The
tax collected ON railroads for this fund III
cluded in the last distribution was S!l,-
u59. 80. OF which S1l, 1862 was the school
tax on the C.. &. o. X. r., for the years
1919 to 1S5I, being the first taxes paid by
il.
The amount collected ON interest and
dividends for this year was So, 559.3e. The
amount collected ON fines was s., 1901.
The amount collected from the taxes OF
