What was the Passage ?
' \l • They do very queer things in America. At Algin, Illinois, a local hardware man and prominent Atheist dared any clergyman in the town to read a certain passage in the Bible from his pulpit* and staked £10 on the result. The challenge was accepted by the liev. Mr Earngey. of tbe First" Methodist Episcopal Church. The despatch adds : The chapter was duty rea'i out on Sunday morning, July. 15, and no more than one or two o* the congregation eirher knew of the bet or rhoiyht particularly about tli« contents of the chapter. The rev. gsntleman is being considerably criticised for his action.
