In reply to the query asked by
the Craigs correspondent, as to
"where and in what book in the
Old Testament was Christ prophe-
sled Of by Balaam?" If there ia
such prophesy, we would refer
you to Mum. 24:l7, which reads
thus: 81 shall see him, but not now :
shall behold him, but not nigh :
there shall come star out Of Jacob,
and a scepter shall rise out of Is
rael, and shall smite the corners of
Moab, and destroy all the children
of Sheth." Some Christian inter
prefers think this double proph-
esy, referring in the first instance
to David, and in the second to the
Messiah. The star and scepteI
seem to point to him who said: 81
am the root and the offspring OF
David, the bright, the morning
star. Rev. % 10"

ROBERT GRIEVE.

By the death of Robert Greve, the
journalistic profession of the Islands
has lost a landmark. He goes to an
honored grave, for there is no one, who
knew Robert Grieve, that did not APP
preciate his true worth and inherent
manliness. Not only was he master
of his craft as a printer but he was a
bright writer, when he chose to use his
pen, and he was an admirable judge of
what the public would appreciate, and
keen critic of any tendency to slop
over or gush.
AS father and a husband, Robert
Grieve was kind and indulgent, in this
being a model He lived for his family,
and their well being was the dearest
wish of his heart. AS friend he was as
true as steel, and there are many who
will deeply and truly mourn for his
death, for they feel that from them has
gone one of the simplest and truest of
men. AS an employer he was just and
generous, ever ready to give a fellow
typo helping hand, and ready to for
give, where others would never forgive.
Men who filled more prominent posi-
tions have not done a 1.-THE of the good
the late Robert Grieve has done in an
transformations way. His memory will
live in many hearts in this city and in
none more than in the heart of him who
pens these lines. An unbroken friend
ship, lasting over twenty years, is a
sad thing to find suddenly cut off 1t is
something, however to have known
we'll a true hearted, honest man, and
such Robert Grieve was. He needs no
prouder epitaph than the words:
HE WAS A MAN"

AN HISTORICAL LESSON.

A story which tells of wonderful he
roism, and of the dreadful and speedy
effects of the bubonic plague is that of
DIR. Franz Hermann Mueller, the young
Vienna physician, who lost his life about
a year ago, under very striking and
dramatic circumstances. Mueller who
was about thirty years of age, was sent
in 1892, at the head of an Austrian sci
entific expedition to Bombay to study
the plague, then raging, as it is today,
in that presidency. The expedition
stayed three months in Bombay, and
the young physician was most indie
fatigable, studying the worst cases
daily and acquiring a wonderful knowl-
edge of the disease. Like other scienti-
fic expeditions, this one brought back
specimens of the plague baccilli, with
which to experiment upon animals al
ter the return to Europe.
In the experiments carried on was
employed hospital attendant named
Barisch He was fully instructed as to
the danger of. his work, and the care to
be used in disfnfecting Instruments, in
burning the bodies of the dead animals
and so forth. But he grew careless
through fanIiliaritEy and was taken
