Instances Of the False Premise.

Only short time ago it was found
necessary in order to stay the ravages
of the cholera to make an effort 10
prevent its dissemination by the
fanatics who annually visited Mecca.
During the recent plague in India it
was found that the native places of
worship were centers of distribution Of
the terrible disease. Efforts to place
such restrictions upon the services and
to exact such cleanliness in the houses
of worship as might afford some pro-
lection from further dissemination of
the pestilence, have aroused the bitter
est antipathy among the fanatical ma
tives, who regard disease as vista
ton from God and not to be interfered
with. This feeling Of hostility is being
cultivated by those who wish to stir
upon anti British sentiment and several
of the English officials have been
murdered.
