 The practice of vaccination ia attended with great danger, If eminent men in the medical profession can be believed. For instance, Dr. Herring, for many years . leading physician in Philadelphia, wrote: ''Many children are murdered by vaccins- lion, and an Indefinite number poisoned for life" Dr. Collins of London, for twenty-five years public vaccinstor, gave up the practice, saying, Vaccination often transfers filthy and dangerous diseases, without sfording any protection against smallpox" pr. John Epps of London, equally experienced, says the same thing, only stronger. as did Dr. Stoveil of Lon pon and Dr. Skinner of Liverpool. Prof. Newman of Oxford university says cit has frequent and terrible effect in doing mis- chief" Many hundreds of experts have stated that it has directly caused the death of thousands of children and undermined the constitution of many more. And Dr. Per ron of the French Legion of Honor, insists that vaccination is the chief cause of con- sumption, the dread disease that fastens upon one out of every seven in the civil tZed world, and which has 90 largely tr- creased since the introduction of vscclns- tion-
 The danger attending this filthy opera. ton (sometimes) Is admitted by the very doctors who use the lancet and the vaccine gull, as evidenced by the following letter, the original of which is now in my pos session and was written by S talented New Haven physician who stands iR the front rank of his profession.

MUSTARD OR GRASS

MUSTARD OR GRAssf
 How many souls can dance on the point of needle. We give 1t up, but once upon time this and similarly interesting and important questions engaged the earnest attention of pious and learned men. Of course there has been great progress since that time. and pious and learned men do not now concern themselves with the dis eussion of such questions. But they do occasionally get cred headed" over some such important religious question as that which is now agitating par ish in Norfolk, England. It appears that plot of land was recently added to the churchyard of the parish, and lively controversy has sprung up over the question whether the additional plot should be consscrated before the prepara- tory crop of mustard sesd is sown, ,or after. Those who advocate an immediate conee- cration contend that 30 long as such a ceremonial Is considered essential 1t might as well be performed at once. The strictsr churehmen, however, assert that such an act would be sacrilege, since 1t would be consecrating to Gods service 8 crop of mustard seed which would be replaced by grass year hence. Not only that, but the grass seed would then be unconsecrated. For these reasons they believe that the foundations of religion will be undermined unless the consecration is deferred until the permanent grass seed is sown.
 This controversy is full of fine points, and its progress will ba carefully watched by all interested in such matters. Much can be and has been said on both sides. It seems to us, however, that those who want the conservation deferred have the best of the argument. We think there Is no doubt that growth of uuconsecrated grass would be highly harmful to the cause of religion, and a growth of consecrated mustard would not be far from ridiculous. And 1t seems plain that any consecration of the ground made before the growth of the mustard would be entirely nulhaed by that growth, and that such conservation could not by any possibility be expected to last over and make the succeeding grass sacred. If bap- item in infancy will not insure salvation it seems entirely reasonable to suppose that consscration of crop of preparatory mus tard will not insure the sacredness of per msnent grass.

It appears that the financial depression ssriously affected the receipts of the con- tribution boxes in the Congregational churches of Massachusetts the past year, as 1t has affected about everything else. They fell of $l76, GOO.
 The California Midwinter fair is such success that the directors are looking for ward to surplus when the gates are closed July 4. It is now entirely out of debt, the attendance is growing. and the receipts are so satisfactory that the admission fee will probably be reduced from 50 cents to 25 cents.

 According to the British and Foreign Bible Society there Is little chance for cir oulation of the Bible in Japan. The soci- sty says of Japan: "Ths progress of Chris tianity seems to pause before the absorption of the people in their new political pas sions." Some visitors to Japan say that the trouble is that the Japanese, eager to receive everything of western civilization, have welcomed the missionaries of all sects of Christianity and now are greatly puz- zled over the rival claims of different de- nominations.
 A writer In the Chicago Tribune des- cribss city in Mongolia, close to the bor- ders of Russian Siberia, which Is peopled only by men. The Chinese women are not only forbidden to live there, but they may not even pass it's walls for temporary so- iourn. It would seem as though the residents regarded the women as some thing too distrscting for the successful conduct of business, for the writer referred to says that Gall the Chinese of this border city are exclusively traders, and they accu- mulate money till their trading with Eu- rope through Siberia has created sufficient fortune to enable them to return to their native cities and live there In ease with their families"
 Nuisances are hard to Kill. Thirty years ago one Patrick Malone built lime kiln In West Twelfth street, New York. Twenty years ago the place was declared nuisance by the New York board of health and ordered to be abandoned. It has been declared a nuisance and ordered to be abandoned great many times since. But the business of lime burning went right along without interruption at the kiln until few days ago, when Patrick Ma lone having died and the heirs having quarrelled, the kiln was abandoned, ap- psrently by the voluntary action of Its owners, although the board of health made praissuorthy effort to appear to have had 6 hand In the matter.
 We hope the report that Thomas W. Mather, instructor In mechanical engineer ing at the Sheffield Scientific School, Is to be the principal of the Boardman Manual Training School Is true. MT.

He has the gift of common sense, Is full of energy and is just the man to properly start and carry on the work of the new school He has done excellent work at the Scientific School for twenty yeas, and if he can be induced to give the new school the benefit of hia sound learning, conspicuous ability and long experience 1t will be good thing for it and for the community.
