Mankind's knowledge of human asture is likely to be greatly extended in con- sequence of an investigation by Mr. H. J.

A few of those who collapsed began to mutter in an incomprehensible Ian- guage, and this evoked fervent exclama tions. The mutteringa were described as "speaking in tongues," and were re garded as unmistakable indications, of Divine presence, and as being, in all re- specta, like experiences recorded in the New Testament.
