Bf WHALE DTD NOT SWA1J/OYV JONAH? j London. Jan. 23.?Dr. R. G. Moul- ! ton, professor of literature at the Uni- i W-\ versity of Chicago, addressing a gath- ; ||. ering of Wesleyans at Bath, England, j where he received his education, in- . sists that Jonah was not swallowed by ; the whale and that the story forms no ] I part of the real Bible. The Bible, mighty in itself, said Dr. |jj Moulton. had passed through the - - - tin ffer nanus 01 co^iuucnuiu'i^ wuu n?.? ? .knowledge, no understanding of litera.lure, and who reduced it to a form which had little or no likeness to the j real Bible. One of these numerous commentators had written into that most spiritual and beautiful book of Jonah the narrative of the whale, the only effect being one of distortion and disfigurement. In actual fact the story, asserted Dr.v Moulton. had been originally in the form of a mere footnote comment in manuscript, but by some blunder, clue to careless, slipshod printing, Prom which the Bible suffered more than any ether book in the world, the table of the whale had been included n the general text. And in this way iad it come down through the ages, jo the modern world as pure comedy, >r, what was wore, rabald satire. PEXAS RAIDS APPARENTLY INSTIGATED BY CAR RAX ZY Washington.

It is reported that the evidence de- j Sr- veloped at the hearing disclosed the | fact that not only were the highest j jPfr.
