fore September l, at the earliest mo-
ment. 81 have" he says, entertained
this opinion for the past two months
and see no reason to change my views,
but on the contrary rather TO emphasize
them. All this talk of a%djourninS in
July, or at furtheSt by August 1, is not
warranted by the facts and the situa-
ton, and the wish is simply father to
the thought"

Our community has been troubled at
times from a disease which may be
known as religious hydrophobia. A
large number Of persons have suffered
from it, and various has been the
means used to allay their sufferings.
Some doctors fail to make a proper
diagnosis Of the case, and the rankest
quack cures are prescribed in opposi.
tion TO all science.
Special attention was given TO a few
cases of weakness Of the spinal column
of faith and religious hydrophobia
some time ago by Rev. Il. r. Herbruck,
the cases being among those Of his con-
gregation here. While dealing with the
case the doctor showed evident signs of
laboring under the influence of the dis
ease himself, for IL was with much fear
and trembling that he dealt with the
water question, saying he would not
talk of IL again for a long time, He
was nervous and became very reckless
in his statements, ignoring historial
facts, perverting simple language,
and giving as his opinions, statements
opposed to the scholarship Of the
