Second. wrong inference as TO the
religious state of mind of a Lecture
The epithets "skeptic.' ''infideF and
''heretie' are familiar and much-used
terms, and they are the first rod of
chastisemelt to which men resort when
anyone ventures TO depart from the ira
ditional path of thought about the Bible.
or to call in question the correctness of
some long established interprets ton.
The skeptic and the inhdel both deny
the divine authority of the Bible and the
supernatural origin of Christianity.
One term may be little stronger than
the other, but the common mind does
not make nice distinctions. Rejection
OF any divine authority or supernatural
element in the Bible. is the idea COM
monty associated with these terms.
The word hereto carries with it. to the
popular mind, something of the same
significance, although it NAV mean
something far different. Now venture
to believe that Pres. Harper does not
deny the divine authority of the Scrip
lures, but that on the other hand he has
as firm belief in its divine authority as
any who criticise his lectures. Genesis
is small part of the Bible, and his
work is interpretative, and there is
nothing in his Interpretation incompati-
bic with a belief in the supernatural
origin of the Christian religion which
finds its roots IN the Old Testament.
1t is not only misrepresentation to call
him skeptic, but it is liable to produce
mischievous results. The impression
created in the minds of many readers
will be that his religious faith is utterly
destroyed. aud they will say, IF this
great man has lost his religious belief,
perhaps the Bible is false
Things should be called by their right
names, and no man in the commanding
position which Pres. Harper occupies.
should be called an infdel or skeptic
without the best of grounds for the
charge. If he asserts his religious faith.
give him credit for sincerity; if his views
on Genesis differ from the traditional
views, it is not wise or just to say
"Sbeptic' for want of a term that
exactly expresses the meaning. If his
views are wrong, the proper way to
deal with them is to expose their falsity;
if they are true they must ultimately
prevail, and the truth will do no harm.

SMALLPOX in Grant County.

1t is reported that smallpox has
broken out in this county near Cuba
city and jamestown. The Dubuque
Herald of Saturday has the following:
The loathsome disease, smallpox. which
has prevailed in Chicago and other
places this winter, has at length broken
out in this vicinity. Two cases are re-
ported, one at Cuba city near Galena,
and the other at Jimtown, Wis, OF the
Cuba city case. the Galena Gazette says:
I. III. Harris, of Cuba city, who was in
Galena today, brought the report of an
unmistakable case of the loathsome dis
ease near that village. A farm hand
named Anderson, employed by a farmer
at Jefferson, small country settlement,
became i'll Tuesday. A physician was
sent for to Cuba city and he pronounced
it case of smallpox. 1t is said that
Anderson came into the neighborhood
a week or two ago from Milwaukee or
Chicago. He is a Swede about 35 years
of age. Cuba city and the country
around is much excited and every pre-
caution has been taken to prevent the
disease from spreading There was no
place in the neighborhood that could be
utilized as pesthouse. so Anderson is
taken care of at the home of the farmer
for whom he worked.
DIR. Fowler, who yesterday was called
to attend patient in the country near
Jimtown, Wis. reported that he had
been informed of the existence of case
of the plague near there. He did not
have time. though, to investigate the
truth of the report.
