ALL FEARED THE COMET.
Frenchman's Opinion Caused Uneasi
ness for Many Years.

1t was falsely reported few weeks
ago that an eminent Italian astrono-
mer had made an awful prophecy as
to the havoc about to be wrought
upon this planet by a comet. The in.
cident had a memorable precedent in
the case of Joseph Jerome Lafrancais
de Lalande, the popular French as
tronomer of century ago. Lalande
differed from Newton's view that
Providence had so arranged matters
as to make collision of the earth with
a comet impossible and wrote a pa
per to prove that it was only very
improbable. This paper, which was
to have been read with others before
the French academy on certain day
in 1873, got crowded out; but the
Partisan public, hearing of it, made
up its mind that Lalande had predict
ed the impending destruction of the
earth and sure panic ensued that the
police had to order the publication of
the paper to reassure the public
mind. But even then it was popular
ly believed that the paper had been
deliberately toned down and comet
panics continued fer a quarter of a
century.

the close of our secc nd years work
with you we are grateful to Almighty
God for the privilege of working with
you for the upbuilding of christian
character. If we have failed in some
points, which no doubt we have, it
has been because of human frailities,
and not from any desire so to do.
The Great God knows we have tried
to be true. Our record is with Him.
Some day we shall meet it again and
will know whether it is good or bad.
We wish to thank you all for your
kindnesses to us and your loyalty to
the work of the church. 1.-THE Grace
of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you
