Chicago, Jan. 27.-ProfessOr Pear
son and his recent open attack on the
miracles OF the Bible were discussed
in many oi the Sunday sermons in
Chicago.
The line was not drawn between
| denominations, preachers of MANY
| creed5, in a score of churches. deem
ing the utterances of the Northwest
ern university teacher worthy of spe-
| cial thought
10 the congregation in the Isaiah
temple Rabbi Stolz said:
1T is not difficult to find in the Bible
| inaccuracies, eXaggerations, inconsis-
tencies, errors in text and sentiments
that degrade the Deity to the level of
an oriental despot.'
Again he said: 1--WE are under OBJ
legations to Professor Pearson that he
| again has called attention to this truth
in spirit OF reverence and duty and not
from a sense of scorn and ridicule.'
Bishop FallOs declared the miracle to
be not unTe tural, but supernatural,
and especially defended the records
of the New Testament.
Rev. Camden M. Coburn, preaching
before the members of the st. James
Methodist Episcopal church, declared:
'It is true that not all the Bible is
literal history, and that a man or
church would indeed be foolish who
would insist upon interpreting every
part of the Bible as literal history.
Many OF the remarks made recently"
he said before concluding, "do not
sound like the utterances of a Biblical
critic, but of infidelity, pure and sim
pie"
In another part of the city DR.. Leach
was even more outspoken. "Take
away one single prop from me, if you
dare to try it," he began, "and in the
name of Jehovahs God, l will brand
you a Judas. Disturbed by the ut.
terances of Professor Pearson? No!
There never has been a lack of such,
for the devil lives until he shall have
been cast into the pit by the cor,
QuerOr!"
The speaker continued to say he
was concerned for the weaker men
and women who might be influenced
by the professors utterances, and de-
manded that the trustees of the uni,
versity suspend the teacher.
Rev. DR.. JohonnOt, at the Unity
church in Oak park, talked on the
theme of The Evil Results of the Be,
lief in an Infallible Bible" He said
in part:
eve have not lost any true faith
when we recognize the fallibility of the
Bible, but have made distinct gain.
The Bible is like a gallery of paint.
ings, in which are gathered the good
and the bad"
Speaking before the Independent Re.
ligious society at the Grand opera
house, Mr.. Mangasarian pleaded for
wider liberty in thought and action in
regard to religious belief. THE Meth
odists have taken the position" he
said that no insider has any right
to criticise the church. If man is
more than raiment, so is he more than
creeds. It would be more economical
to trade with trade than with a man

Exchanged Messages.

Exchanged Messages.
New York, Jan. 27.-The Cunarder
Umbria, which has just arrived from
Liverpool, talked by means of the wire
less with her sister ship the Etruria,
proceeding eastward. Operator Frank
lin, on the Umbria, caught Etruria's s
call at 11:45 a. IN. last Wednesday in
latitude II and longitude 1925. The
conversation was continued for three
hours and thirty minutes.
The shortest distance at which con-
versation was carried on was 80 miles
and the longest 10S or 110 miles nauti-
cal, equal to about 125 geographical
miles. This was miles farther than
those two ships have heretofore talk
ed with each other. The Umbria sent
five messages to the Etruria to be
transmitted from Crook Haven to
friends in England. Mr.. Franklin
made no effort to locate the PhiladeI-
phia, as he was not aware that Mr..
MarcOni had wired the American liner
with the wireless apparatus.

WASHINGTON, July 26.-Experi-

DR.. Adolph Rezlag, noted specialist

Wade, at Canton, has forwarded a pre-

has been taken against infection from
these cases which in twenty-four hours

ciated with myself in the observations

also that there are no secret or propri-

treatment followed that would be IN
the least detrimental to the welfare of
the patient. Pictures have been taken
of the three cases now under treatment
and it is said that a full report will
be made of these and other cases that
are likely to come under treatment TO
general medical congress which
meets a few months hence, in Vienna.
Later on l shall be pleased to report

been accomplished. The self denying

In this regard permit me to state that
the building is under the supervision
