Bloomington, Ill, November 8.— When James Savery told his wife last evening that he saw men carrying @ coffin into the house she made light of his imagination, but he died sud- denly this morning, and now the re- }markable warning of death is creat- ing extensive commetit. Savery came here thirty years ago from England and had been employ- ed by the city all of that time. He was 70 years of age and in fairly good Bibles in which an innumerable host of archaic spellings and words have been relegated to the past and which have been more thoroughly modern- ized than apy editions of Holy Writ up to date are to be imtroduced into the divinity school of the University ot Qhicago. Prof. Clyde W. Votaw, of the divinity school, said that he in- tended to use it in his work and that several other instructors expected to do the same. A striking feature of this new edi- tion, according to Prof... Votaw, is the wording of the New Testament title page, which reads: “The New Cove- nant, Commonly Called the New Tes- tament.” The designation “Saint” has been dropped before the names of the While blasting rock to enlarge a reservoir at Uniendale, Pa., a small pool of water was discovered under a great ledge of rocks. The water in the pool was a bright green, but when the mass of rock was taken off it turned to,a dark blue. Around the edge of the peol were strange mosses and ferns, whieh withered as soon as they encountered the rays of the sun. Through the crevices of the rocks ran great.red and blue beetles and nts, and monster horned snakes with joods and deuble fange wriggled ed the stream in an effort to flank theenemy. After considerable fight- ing at great odds, it was discovered that the party left behind had mis- understood the order and were on the other side of the stream exposed to across fire of the insurgents, which was doing deadly execution. Then it was that Lieutenant Wade volun- teéred the hazardous feat of wading the river to them in the face of the Fillipinofire. Wadeis ashort, heavy built fellow and he can’t swim a stroke. In crossing the stream the Water was up to his chin, and only by holding his face turned up could he keep it out of his mouth. But he made it across, reached his men and started back with them.

Instead of “The Acts of the Apostles” Biblical students will now read “The Acts.” Paul's name has been removed from the title of the epistle to the Hebrews and the desig- nation of “the apostle” has also been dropped after Paul’s name in the titles of the Pauline epistles. “Hell,” “the pit,” and “the grave” are substituted by the word “sheol.” “Holy Ghost” in the New Testament hasgiven way to “Holy Spirit,” because the word “ghost” has acquired an in- appropriate sense.
