Bernard Mccarthy of 4i0S North
Second street are puzzling the doc
tors. A long growth Of sandy curly
hair is rapidly covering his entire
body, and his skin is growing dark
er. Three weeks ago he felt an itch
ing of the skin on his chest. He
noticed a stripe Of dark bronze color
across his chest. The spot gradually
spread and has now covered his entire
body, even the soles Of his feetand the
scalp on his head, and is growing
darker. His health is otherwise good.
The whites of his eyes have changed
from Gheir natural color to a dark
hue, that of an ape. Mccarthy is SC
years old, is married and has twelve
children. He has lived in St. Louis

give a plausible reason for the change

BROOKLYN. N y. January "a
There was mirth IL Plymouth Church
te-night. The Rex Dr.. Lyman Alb
bolt, who has hscn preaching SER
mons on the litera .urc CT the Bible,
preached about Jonah and the vhale
His remarks caused great laughter,
end he was frequently interrupted by
loud OUTLAWS The doctor talked in
all seriousness, ana when he concluded
he rebuked thepeorle forlaughing and
called their attention to the lesson Of
the fiction, as he called it. He said it
taught the loving kindness and mercy
Of God.
The preacher first referred to Jonah
and the whale incidentally. He said
IT was a parable or fiction. He de
clared that it made no man worse for
disbelieving it, or no man better for
believing it. He took up the story
feature by feature, and arguedto prove
how impossible it AL was.
The affair made 3 great hit, and DR..
Abbott will in all probability occupy
a prominent place in public attention
for several days, superseding Dr.
Rainsford, who requested his parish
toner's to remain away from elaborate
functions, and Rev Merle Wright,
who preached in justification of
suicide.

Foreign Flags in America.

The first flag to float over American
soil was the royal standard of Isa
bella, emblazoned with the arms oi
Castle and Leon. A white flag with
a green cross was its companion.
Some years after Columbus landed al
San Salvador the Cabots planted the
banner of England and of ST. Mark 5
of Venice on the eastern shore ot
North America. In the 400 years that
have interviewed since a variety OF
national flags have waved where now
only'tho stars and stripes is the ac-
ceDtsd emblem. Over Texas have
hoated the French, Spnish, English,
American and Confederate; Louisiana,
