MOHAMMEDANIsNI.

Rev. Dr. MarkWick Talks About Is.
 lam and Its Founders.
 'Mohammedsnism," said Rev. MT. Mark wick at the St. John street M. E. church last evening, "has over 155,000.000' of fol- lowers, and the followers are scattered throughout Arabia, Turkey, India, China, Persia and many other countries Mohammed, the founder of this religion. was born about 570 A. D. He was instructed in the busi- ness of merchant, and after reaching man hood was made commercial agent for rich widow, whom he afterwards married. Be- lieving solitude conducive to spiritual growth he retired with his family to cave and there he informed his wife that the angel of Gabriel had made him an apostle of God. He was now about forty years of age. He soon made proselytes, first among his own family and servants and then among the most prominent people of Mecca. When his preaching, which was secret at first, was done openly he met with fierce opponents. Driven by persecution, he went to Medina where he already had certain followers, among them six converted Jews. He gathered adherents rapidly, and with their aid rose in might, captured Mecca and brought all Arabia under his subjsction.
 Mohammedism teaches that there is one Jehovah; that there are angels with pure and subtle bodies of fire, and that God has at divers Iimes made revelations of his will to his people. It also declares resurrection and final judgment. According to it's teach- ings hell is divided into seven departments, to which the unsaved, separated at death into seven classes, are assigned according to the lives they have lived on earth. They be- leve infidels are assigned to eternal damna- tion. The Koran lays much stress upon fast ing and the pilgrimsges to Mecca, saying that fasting is fourth part of faith, and that he who does not make pilgrimage to Mecca might as we'll die Jew.

or Augustus N. Barslstss . Promlnsnt
 Resident of sh at Place.
 MT. Augustus E. Bartlett, whose death oc- cured on Saturday morning, had been for many years one of the most respected citi- zeas of North Guilford. After spending the more active part of his life In businsss in New York city, hs retired to the home where he was born, and where he had been reared. Here, too, he passed his declining years peacefully and happily. An innate taste for liteature, cultivated by carly training, and developed through subsequent years, im- pslled him to devote much time to reading. In consequence he was, to the very close of his life, thoroughly informed on all questions of political or social importance, and on all matters of scientific progrsss. Besides being possessed of unusual intelligence, he was also a man of decided convictions. In early life he was an earnest advocate of abolition. In later years he was an equally sincere and .un- compromising believer in prohibition. He had witnessed the accomplishment of one moral revolution, and was confident of tho ultimate triumph of the prohibition cause. Toward the accomplishment of this result he made liberal pecuniary contributions. Be was also generous supporter of the Congrs- Qational church in North Guilford, of which he became . member during the pastorate of the late Rev. Mir. Kshlsr. Nr. Bartlett never married. He was the last of family of sIx brothers and sisters, none of whom left children.

The company now has undisputed right of way through that city, the difficulties with the Housaronio having been settled. No plans have yet been drawn. There has been talk of an elevated station, which would abolish all grade crossing, but 1t is thought the great cost would render the plan impracticable.
