ABOUT THE DELUGE.
NOah's Flood a Miracle That Must BE
Taken on Faith.

From the New York Press.
Why waste time discussing another
glacial epoch when we can look two
years ahead and see the next deIuge?
The almost universal tradition of the
East respecting the flood is that the
waters were boiling hot So say the
Talmud, the Targums and the Koran.
On the wall of the Mug House Club
hangs this prophecy: .,--
And 1t shall come to pass in the year
1905 that the Hemisphere that is ca4Ad
Western shall lie under the waters
which shall rain down in a great de-
LUCE, destroying foods of ungodly men
who have made me afraid"
The wag of the club wrote this be-
meath it: And who shall find suffi-
cient grace in the sight of the Lord to
be the Noah of this second mabbul?
His name is Trust-SqueeZer. He will
have the trusts in his mighty grip, and
when he squeezes the water out there
of there will be a hot time and then
possible. We have just learned that
the water in the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company amounts to nearly
$4S 900.
Respecting the deluge of Noah,s we
are bound to believe, without compre-
hending. One of the strange things
about it is that Noah was commanded
to take into the Ark seven pairs of all
kinds of clean animals and two pairs
of unclean ones, ito keep seed on the
EARTH" yet as soon as the Ark rested
he proceeded to burn "of each clean
animal for a sacrifice, thus destroying
the seed!
So many faults can be found with
the flood that we had best accept it as
an adorable miracle, fearful and In
comprehensive. to feeble reason Not
even our bright and spotless commits
sioners of accounts are able to figure
out how the ark could have contained
all the living things on the earth, to-
gether with their food, for nearly two
years, nor how eight persons could
feed, water and keep in order. such an
! immense number of inmates. Compare
our own little nlenagerie with Noah's.
Was the flood salt water, or fresh?
M. LIE Peletier. a merchant of Rouen,
once offered to build a vessel on the
plans of the ark, fill 1t with animals
after the manner of Noah, and main
tain it for the space of year in order
to prove or disprove the possibility of
the enterprise of 224S B. c. Pascal re-
marked that this visionary never SUI
perintended even poultry yard.
