Seventy-two years ago one of the greatest modern religious leaders of India, Mizra Ghulam Ahmad, was born in Punjab, India. He died in Lahore, India, on May 26, 1908, after establishing a cult that spread all over India and found many devotees among the lovers of the occult and mysterious in England and the United States. He claimed to be the Messiah which Mohammed said would come to his people. He was a man of wide learning and edited a magazine evidencing much scholarship, in which he defended his own particular variety of the Moslem faith and bitterly and maliciously attacked Christianity and its missionaries in India. The Mirza came to the notice of Americans a few years ago by challenging John Alexander Dowie to a praying test.

Each was to pray that the one who was an imposter should die first. When Dowie avoided him, the Mirza predicted that he would perish miserably, and when the pretender successor of Elijah died deserted by' his family and former supporters, he regarded that as a noted fulfillment of his prophecy. He advocated peace and toleration, and had gone to Lahore a few days before his death to arrange for the establishment of a society to promote harmony and union between Hindus and Mohammedans.
