wellknown Congregational minister, in a SER
mon stated that the millennium will occur in
1875, fifty one years hence This event will be
preceded by the recognition of Israel. which

the Hebrews will follow the appearance of an
Anti-Christ, who previously will lead them
astray After the millennium there will be eos
sation of birth and prolongation of human life
when a man will be called a child at 100 wears
of age. This will be followed by a second com
inv of Christi then the resurrection and nro
vision of a fitting body; the translation of the

The Buildings and Their Occupants.

KALAMAZOO, Mich, April 30-The county
farm lies midway between the village of Hart
ford and Lawrence, three miles from each, and
beyond fire assistance; but when the flames
were discovered the buildings were already so
involved that help would have been useless. The
Buildings consisted of a large two-story frame.
with wing extending east, and a
,wostory addition projecting south
rom near the main building. The latter was
occupied by the superintendent, Mr. Cash, his
family and his hired help. One of the latter,
named Halsey, aroused by the cries of the
inmates. Going down the hall, he opened the
door to the twostory addition, when he was
almost overpowored by the volume of flame and
smoke that burst out. He had barely time to
give an alarm in the superintendent quarters;
the paupers in the addition were already past
help The occupants of the front building only
escaped with their lives, nothing being saved
Init two or three articles of furniture
The addition contained sleeping rooms for
about twenty, and the only persons who escaped
were boy named Parker, who jumped from
che second story and two little boys of Mrs.
Wilson's; their mother and sister persisted in the
danes.
The remainder of the inmates Of the institu.
lion were in detached building known as ssthe
Jail They comprised the violently insane,
etc Between that and the main structure was
another detached building, the intervals
separating these structures being perhaps
forty feet which delayed the prog
ress of the fire until the inmates of the
jail could be saved. One of the occupants of the
ruperintendents quarters was his daughter who
was just recovering from an illness of typhoid
fever She was saved The inmates who were
lost comprised the better class of paupers those
in comfortable condition, and able to assist about
the premises. The county authorities have made
provision in the neighborhood for temporary
care of the remaining inmates There were
about sixty occupants of the burned buildings.

his extreme .1itualistic tendencies. The idea
that l would accept in that direction what Bishop
