Professor Smith Seriously Objects tc
This Charge at his Trial.

trial Dr. Thomas O. Lowe, for the pros-'
ecutioo, argued Professor Smith's objec- .
tion to the charges He quoted the action
of the General Assembly in May last
to the effect that a minister who chnnges
his views after ordination should leave
the Church, which Christian honor required
without awaiting the tedious process
of discipline. Dr. Lowe, couclud- (
iug, uccused Professor trnith of sin
against the Holy Ghost and blasphemy.
Professor Smith protested against being
accused of sin agaiust tho Holy Ghest.
Dr. McKibben said ho had not boon, but. B
Professor Smith insisted that Lowe hart r
made such accusation and asked the y
presbytery if the committee thought him
guilty of that sin it would have been w
more manly to consider it iu the charges. c
Dr.' McKibben attempted to smooth a
matters and au elder demanded that 0
Lowe make his own explanation. Dr.
Lowe replied that Dr. McKibben had "
iiauu 11 ior nun. There wus much feel- tl
iug in the discussson. ^

miles north of Shuttczat, saw, a? ho
affirms, an enormous sorpont floating
along in a fleecy white "tozuor" of
"wind cloud." The cloud and its
scaly passenger floated directly over Mr.
"Xatzry's farm and bore oil in tho direction
of the Great Blue Jungle and disappeared
from view. Over a score or
men, womon and boys who wero working
along the flat at the time cf the phenomenal
occurrence, attest that thej
plainly saw the samo hideous monster
in his othercal flight. One witness describes
tbe serpent as being at least four
"tsongs" (200 feet) in length and as big
around as a man's body. All witnesses
concur in saying that tbo head and foreparts
of tbo creature resembled au alligator
more than anything olse. It was
yellow and black stripod, according to
all witnesses, and kept its body in oon>
tinued motion as long as it remained in
sight. Tbo natives are said to bo much
| excited over the matter.

"German
Syrup"
My acquaintance with Boschee's
German Syrup was made about fourteen
years ago. I contracted a cold
which resulted in a hoarseness and
couch which disabled me from fill
ing ray pulpit for a number of Sab- *
baths. After trying a physician,
without obtaining relief I saw the
advertisement of your remedy and
obtained a bottle. I received quick
and permanent help. I never hesitate
to tell my experience. Rev. W.
