An Ingenious Biblical Theory spoiled.

W washington special
Inquiries have come here By letter from per-
sons in various parts of the country, chiefly
students OF the Bible, with regard 20 an article,
osteusibly from scientific source, which has
been going the rounds of the press. The etrik-
ing statement is contained in this publication
that the shittim wood mentioned in the Hebrew
Scriptures used for the building of Noah's
ark has been discovered within radius OF
sixty miles OF Nashville, Tenn aud that il
appears TO be the only home of this timber on
the face or the earth. Some of the inquirsrs
have gone 30 far as 70 suggest that possibly the
discovery may throw some light on the early
and on the question whether the American In
dians are nos degenerate descendants of the lost
tribes OF Israel. The underlying idea in one of
these ingenious theories is that, somehow, Noah
will be shown to have been an Anericsu
aborigine, and that that part Of bis progeny
who afterwards settled this continent were
merely the descendants OF a wandere- returning
to the home Of their ancestor.
All tais speculation IL Knocked in the head
however by the statement made at the Agri-
cultural Department first, that the so-called
shitnD tree is found in q number OF places in
Arkansas and sprinkled over the Southwest
generally; second. that ii never attsius q size
which woald enable it to be used for marine or
other substantial forms of architecture; and,
finally that there is no evidence whatever that
the wood known popularity in this country a.
shittim 10 the same as, or even related to, the
shittim of the Bible. The name seems Co have
been gwen to it quite arbitrarily. doubtless by
some unscienti6c settler who either could find
no better designation by which to distinguish !.
from other trees with which be was familiar, or
fauced that he discerned some resemblance In
it to the Oriental shittim, as he had heard it do
scribed.

BURIAL REFORM.
An Energetic Protest Against Modern Efforts
TO Defeat the Processes of Nature.

NEW YORK, Sept l0.-The Rev. Frederick
Lawrence. vicar OF Weston. York, England. and
honorable secretary Of the Church of England
Burial, Funeral and Mourning Reform Associa-
ton, preached yesterday in Grace Chapel. Mr..
Lawrence has come to New York In the interest
Of the burial reform association. His sermon
yesterday Was on the folly of carefully cen
struc.ine box for dead bodies as II in the hope
that the inevitable destination Of nature may be
avoided or delayed. Said be: 1.-THE burial re-
form association asks what reason there is for
such folly. The burial service requires that
earth be given back to earth, but nothing
OF the sort is done 10 the prevalent
mode OF burial By the Intervention
of strong collins and the like
the bodies of the dead are prevented from I'M
dergong the very chauges which should be ex.
pected and welcomed. The question that con-
Germs US is shall We let kindly nature do her
work properly and with benefit to the living or
shall We say in our impotent folly, stand aside
and DO not interfere with our belongings
Mother nature is a potent chemist, and, just as
. human chemist can. by skillful combination
and arrangement, make harmful or harmless
body out of materials alike In their origin s
she can in like manner work for good or evil
The earth is the great natural deodorizing
medium, and Is able TO act as such, mainly be-
cause, being porous in combination, it allows
the process Of oxidation to go on within it,
Consequently, il the dead body be so placed
that the oxygen Of the air get at it, the SOIL
the products of decay can reach
plants which are growing in the soil
above, and the body is gradually
and harmlessly dissolved by natural processes.
And il stands to reason that If we resolve on
giving these natural processes fair play we shall
put our dead into collins which. whilst enabling
US to bury them with all reverence and decencv,
will yet enable the oxidizing processes to take
place. But this is just what under onr existing
methods Of burial, we do not do. We encase
the dead in strong collins and often bury them
in brick vaults There the inevitable decay is
retarded, but not prevented. Noxious gases es
Gaping have chance of doing harm, instead of
being at once turned to good account The fact
is. convensIonslty steps in and puts us in an ut
terly false position from which the the Church

aims at delivering US, and this the society pro.

tiers OF his church to hold q conference on the
subject.

drawn from all parts Of the comfy. There
were uniformed companies from several out
townships, and fifty young ladies in uniform
from Paramount under the name of the Carrie
Harrison Club. Col. II. p. Cary, q veteran OF
Governor Porter's address was a fair and care
full review of the political situation entirely ar
gumentative and devoid of anything that would
arouse or array the prejudices OF
the opposition. The recent great
manufacturing interests developed here,
by reason of the discovery Of natural gas, gave
the speaker an opportunity to handle the tariff
question with particular force. The other State
and national issues that enter into this campaign
were handled with Q force and ability such as
few other speakers are capable OF.
At the close OF Governor Porters address
George Harvey was introduced. and spoke for
three quarters Of an hour. Mr., Harvey 10 a
mechanic by occupation, and what he lacks In
classic lore be makes mp in the force and point
edness OF his remarks. He confined himself
almost exclusively to the tariff. upon which sub
jess be is thoroughly posted. he has q particu-
larly strong way OF putting facts and figures,
and his illustrations are very taking. The effect
or the meeting has been to euthuse Republicans
for the work that Ia before them.
