Perfection faith. Their Christ, Mrs.
Dora Beekman. died at Buena Vista,
Colorado. Her followers believed she
would rise on the third day, but, in
stead, modification ensued and the
body had to be buried. This made
two shocks to their faith. They then
proclaimed she would arise in forty
days, but again they were disappoint-
ed. Their Christ being dead, it was
necessary that some one should take
her place, and Sweinforth put on her
supposed divinity, and he masquerad-
ed as the Perfectionist Christ.
AT Alpena two of the members
were placed in charge of the disciples.
This appears to have been bad move.
There were two leaders, and of course
divided congregation. One of the
leaders was accused of heresy. He
was said to disbelieve Mrs. Beekman's
divinity, and was accused of having
made fun of her teachings. Here
was house divided among itself, and
in such case trouble always ensues.
The disciples here formed two camps,
and the creed got somewhat mixed.
They had one head Christ, Mr.. Swein-
forth, and then there were several
subordinate ones, and it looked as if
the society was going to have convul-
sions. There were certainly too many
leaders, and the followers appeared
puzzled as to which to worship. Fin
ally they discarded the one who said
he did not believe that Mrs. Dora
Beekman was the Christ, but that he
believed she was great preacher,
sort of apostle.
The head Christ, Sweinforth, was
then sent for, and he arrived in town
week or so ago. He tried to get
the Perfectionist machinery again in
smooth running order, but appears to
have been unsuccessful, and must
realize by this time that it was a bad
policy that placed two persons in
charge Of the same congregation.
The little band that is left will, of
course, still cling to their wonderful
belief. In fact it would take a good
sized earthquake to shake the super
stition from their minds. 1t acts like
a Canada thistle on land, it is hard to
especially as the leader.
Sweinforth, keeps sowing his tarcs.
We have not mentioned the names
of the Alpena parties, out of respect
for their families, who are worthy cit
liens.
Last year we let some light on their
doctrine and its evil effects,
and events that have occurred since
have proven our prophesy regarding
them to be correct. Our belief, that
Sweinforth is a frst-class hypocrite,
will yet, we predict, be credited by a
large majority of the citizens of AL
pena, if not elsewhere.

The early part of last week, the
schooner Alaska, loaded with railroad
iron, was sailing up the lake, and
when abreast of Middle Island, was
suddenly and without warning struck
by an hurricane. All her sails were
carried away or tore to pieces, and
she lost her gafs, booms, and mizzen
topmast. Her cargo of railroad iron
was also shifted and the vessel sprung
a leak. With remnant of the main
sail, she manged to work her way to-
wards Thunder Bay, but was soon as
sisted by a steambarge, which towed her
to safe anchorage in the bay. The tug
Ralph then towcd her to this port.
A tug was sent for, and Friday MORN
ing the disabled schooner left for St.
Ignace, in charge of the tug Duncan
City. While in port, the captain of
the Alaska made protest before U.
S. Commissioner V. G.. Burnham. In
regard to accident, the captain stated
that it was regular hurricane that
disabled him, and that he had no
warning Of its coming. The railroad
iron was shipped at Cleveland and
was for st. Ignace. The owners of
this iron will probably have to pay
part of the expense incurred in get
ting the disabled schooner to har-
Dor of refuge.

PerfectiOnist not Perfect.

Dissentions have occurred i'm the
ranks of the Perfection society, and
the foundations of that collection of
enthusiastics appear to have been
shaken. This peculiar society seems
to have been in its full bloom in Au-
gust, 1882, and our readers will re-
member the public meetings of the
band in the Knights of Honor hall.
Mrs. Dora Beekman proclaimed her.
self the Christ and was revered so
by the most of her disciples. Consid-
cradle excitement was occasioned
thereby. Everything seemed hopeful
to the little band of Perfectionists at
that time, and their sanguine magma
tions were frightened with the belief
Chat they were destined to be a great
power on earth that their peculiar
belief would spread over the world,
and that their religion was the only
true one. Mr.. Sweinforth waxed fat
on the belief. 1t was good, comfort
able thing for him, for it brought
him money, clothes, food and paid his
travelling expenses. He, we believe,
was the handspring of the concern.
The more converts the more cash.
No cloud appeared to them at that
time to obscure the horizon of their
faith. In the meantime they were the
cause of much misery. 1t weakened
family ties, and, in one case, was the
cause, we believe, of one mans death.
In the spring of the present year
clouds began to arise and darken the

A small corps of hunters landed at
this city, from the steamer City of
Cleveland. We suppose they were
killing deer all the way up. If they
should be so unfortunate as not to kill
any deer, just allow us to whisper the
suggestion, that money will buy dead
deer of regular hunters, and they can
easily pass them off on their friends,
when they return home, as specimens
of their skill, and if they can't throw
in the shooting of half a dozen deer
besides, they will be too modest for
deer hunters or fishermen.
