A dispatch from Apaldoorn, Hol-
land, gives particulars of terrible
tragedy arising out Of religious fam
aticism. There exists in the neighbor-
hood a peculiar sect, and It's members
decided to offer up a sacrifice to God,
preceded by service Of praise, in
which two young girls led tho singing.
While the services was proceeding, one
Of the congregation, a peasant farmer,
seized his woman servant and killed
her, following this up by numbering
the two girls and his wife. The Wor-
shippers made no attempt whatever to
interfere with the fiendish work, and
even gazed calmly on while the muir
derer washed his hands in the blood OF
his victims. He has since heen ar
