Three lectures Were delivered yester-
day morning. afternoon and evening
AT = hall IN the third story Of the
building ON the northwest corner Of
Main and Eagle streets. The lecturer
was Thomas Williams. one Of small
and almost wholly unknown sect called
Christadelph ans. His discourSes tended
10 show the beliefs Of the denomination
which he represents. His hearers were
few in number. only small portion Of
them differing in religious creed from
the speaker.
In q talk with Williams las. evening,
he stated 10 a reporter Of Tie frpress
that the Christade lphians were the re-
suit Of revival brought about some
forty or fifty years ago BY DIR.
Thomas, OF London. Mr.. Thomas had
come 70 this country. settling in Vir-
GINA. where he was for some time
among the Campbcllites. He disagreed
il belief with Alexander Campbell. and
started new sect BY le turing through
out the country and editing paper
called the Herald OF ne Kingdom rs .
religious organ. The Bible is made the
foundation Of all beliefs Of the sect. It
holds that there il one God inhabiting
light, unapproachahlc. set everywhere
present BY universal spirit: thar Jesus
Of Nazareth was . mortal man born Of
Mary BY the Holy Spirit. and thus con-
stituting the son Of God; that lie was
put to death as sin offering and after
ward resurrected and taken into Heaven,
where He Is " remain until His second
coming -
was living soul with the possibility Of
being mortal or immortal BY sin he
became mortal sub ect to death; that
in death he Is absolutely unconscious.
and. therefore. depends upon resur-
rcction for future life; that Immortality
does not exist 10 man. but will be i'm
parted to him as : reward after resur-
rection and Judgment. The wicked. in
stead Of suffering everlasting to-ments,
aro TO be put out Of existence.
Christ. ~ His second coming. which Is
70 be an appearance in the flesh, will
rule for one thousand years. during
which time men will be born and die AZ
in the present dispensation. The rcsur-
rcction and judgment Of the whole
world will take place. the wicked being
destroyed and the righteous receiving
| Immortality. Thereafter. throughout
all times. the righteous shall inherit the
world in material bodies with jesus

One Thousand Acres of Land and
Right Smart of Bears"

On the deck Of big Mississippi steamboat
stood an aged Southern planter, Indicating by a
sweep of his arm the walers the boat was passing
over, he said to passenger from the North !:
when l was twelve years old | killed my arst
bear on new plantation my father was then cut
ting out OF a forest that grew directly over the
waters of this bend. Tha. was a mighty good
plantation, and there was right smart of bears
there, too. But that oHe thousand acres of land
went into the Mississippi years ago."
II is putting no strain upon the figure to cay
that great forests of youthful nope, WON My
beauty and manly strength are swept in the same
way every year into tie great, turbid torrent Of
disease and death. Yetit should not be so. That
II is so ls disgrace as well as a loss People
are largely too careless or too stupid TO defend
their own interests-thc most precious of which
Is health That gone, ali is gone. Disease is
simple, but TO reckessness or Ignorance, the
simplest things might al well be complex as a
proposition in Comic Sections. AS the huge
Western rivers, which 30 often flood the cities
along their Shores arise in few mountain springs
so all our ailmenls can be traced to impure blood
and a small group OF dsordered organs
The most effective and inclusive remedy for dis.
ease lie PARKER'S TONIC. 1t goes to the
sources OF pain and weakness. In response to its
action, the Liver, kidneys, stomach and heart be.
pin their work afresh, and disease is driven out.
The Tonic Is not, however, an intoxicant, but
cures desire for strong drink. Have you dys
