River Grange, the following resolutions
were adopted, 6. w. Hatch. secretary:
Bowling reverently to the Supreme,
who in His infinite wisdom has seen tit
to remove from this grange our beloved
and honored brother Joseph Ramsdell,
therefore be it
Resolved, To cherish his momery as a
brother of answering fidelity and loyal
ty to the principles OF our order, and
though we shall miss his cheerful greet
ing and ever welcome sympathy we can
not regret that he has been relieved from
suffering and gone to the land where
pain and suffering are unknown.
Resolved, That we extend to his be-
reaved fami ly our heartfelt sympathy in
this their great sorrow and commend
them to II i'm, who has promised to be
the widows God and a Father to the
fatherless.

A Nervous Epidemic.

"A st. Vitus' dance epidemic has seized
upon the school children of Rehlingen,
village near Trier, on the Moselle.
It began suddenly on July 25th with
Katherine Schnubel, girl of 10. During
a violent thunderstorm in school hours
she trembled and quaked as if in palsy
and then threw out her arms and legs,
sprang from her seat and danced hysteri-
cally. The sight of Katherina's involun-
tary motions had SO powerful physical
influence on her fellow scholars that all
will power in them seemed to be de-
stroyed by sort of wild, irresistible de-
sire to initiate her.
In the first class of the girls school
twenty nine of the children began dane
ing and four in the second class. In the
upper boys school four of the lads were
seized and three in the lower school.
The attacks were repeated on the fol
lowing day and in the csaes OF some Of
the children, lasted from one and hall
to two hours and in a few cases even
longer.
It seems that the ST. Vitus' dance has
appeared in isolated cases among the
Rehlingen school children several times
during the last few years. The schools
were ordered to be closed for three weeks.
