DIR. Sharp's ogden Lecture-Wiscel-
laneous Notes.

"Woe and Lamentation; Lamentation
and Woep' is the subject our fanatical
Pharisees in Ogden take delight in. The
coming of the great and new prophet and
(for dental purposes) profit, DIR, Sharp,
of Salt Lake City, to lecture in Ogden, is
professedly on the Divinity of the Book
of Mormon, but really, as he did in
Kaysville week ago, to glance off into
proftsighing of the calamities that will
befall all this stif-necked United States
generation for rejecting the gospel and
prosecuting the Saints OF God. Sharp's
coming is eagerly looked for by crazy
cranks whose diseased minds crave for
the food that suits them. We will proffer
to say that he will assert that he prophe-
cied of the earthquake in Charleston,
naming the day and date when it would
happen, one month ahead; that he can
prophecy the day and date when Salt
Lake City will be destroyed by fire that
there will not be polygamist in the Pen
in eighteen months from date; that he
knows the day and date when New York
will be quaked over and swallowed up in
the sea, ditto San Francisco, Boston and |
other large cities; that when the polygs |
are released the monogs will catch it hot |
at the hands of a powerful army; that |
within five years there will not be a |
single transcontinental railroad in opera
ton in these doomed United States, nor
q single telegraph pole left standing that
the Lamanites, the battle-axes of the
Lord, will spread havoc among the GEN
tiles; that Christ, the Savior, will plant
His feet on the North American CONT
nent in 1891, from which date on the
Latter-day priesthood will rule supreme.
God Saints are clamoring to have Bro.
Sharp, the dentist, voted for at confer
ence and proclaimed as profit unto the
Latter-day Saints.
About the middle of next month there
will be grand masquerade party given
by the John A. Dix Post, No. 3, G. A. r.
