A strange disease has recently been
noticed by some of the chicken tan-
ciers in Clinton. Chickens seem to be
well anti hearty arid scratching around
then in a few moments fall dead, or
seem to lose the use of their limbs,
at least, before expiring. One man has
lost eighteen fine birds, another seven
and another nine. They cannot lath -
en this strange malady. All the
chickens thus dying have reached the
size whets they would dress at about
one and a half pounds.
Pastor Carpenter, who is undoubt-
edly a follower or colleague of Pas-
tor Russell appeared here on Sun-
day afternoon and gave a talk on
"Where are the dead'', in the Opera
House -to a fairly large attendance.
On the whole the discourse was not
unusual in any way, but was simply
a fairly good sermon. With refer-
ence to, his subject in particular, he
quoted scripture to uphold his argu-
ment that when man died he simply
goes asleep and knows nothing until
the resurrection and judgment day.
That is practically the .only point in
whicb otbers might differ With 'aim,
and we cannot 'see that it matters a
great deal whether the judgment day
i: immediately after death ar a mil-
lion years later. The main point is
as described in the well-known toast,
"If you are alright here you'11ebe:al-
right . there." Isen't that what all the
pastor's teach?
