That Greek Verb.

A merger Of the Congregations and
Baptist CHURCHES in Wisconsin, which
had progressed favorably through q
years elaboration of their respective
committees and seemed on the point of
consummatian, has fetched up short
against that old familiar snag. the
Greek verb "baptizein" which may
mean to dip orit may mean to sprinkle.
The two churches were able to agree
on other matters of creed and practice.
they believe in the same God and the
intercession Of the same Christ, they
even agreed on the important point Of
the rules of human conduct and morals.
But one of them knows beyond any
doubt or peradyenture that that poor
old Greek word means to dip, and the
other knows with firm and unalter-
able conviction that it maans to sprinkle
and the report of the meeting says that
"the variance appears impossible to ad-
just"

Speed by Land and Sea.

Two marvellous inventions have been
described to the public recently and
have reached the stage of successful
trial with models. Ii they accomplish
what is promised for them by the in
ventors they will work arevolution in
the importation both by rail and by
water.
Tbs boat which is supported by
planes which skim over the water is
described in the current number Of the
| Technical World A trip across the
Atlantic, 5000 miles, will be merely a
pleasure excursion of thirty hours
when this boat is perfected; and at the
same time the dangers of an ocean
voyage will be mostly done away with.
The companion piece of this news is
the account of a lnonorai motor car
which appeared a few weeks ago. The
rail is no more than single cable
which is stretched across rivers, goes
up and down hills, and curves at any
desired angle. And through it all the
car clings to its cable because within
the car are two heavy wheels revolving
horizontally at a high speed in opposite
directions. The scientific principle is
the same as that which makes the toy
top walk up and down a string, being
the equilibrium by the revolution.
Neither of these wonderful promises
appears any more fantastic to ns than
the idea of the steamboat did to the
contemporaries Of Fulton. And they
have both worked successfully with
completed models. When the, slow
trains and the slow ships are making
100 miles an hour, what will we do for
excitement? .s4
