A Fire Test.

By Uriah Smith

IN the report of a spiritualist camp-meeting at Terre Haute, Ind., last month it is said that a medium bared her arms and dipped them into burning alcohol and poured it over her neck and face and came off unscathed. She had previously warned all against speaking during the performance, and not until some one thoughtlessly spoke during the repetition of the act did the flame take effect upon her. That however seemed to break the spell, and she immediately cried out with pain.
