THE DANISH HORN.
A REMARKABLE RELIC SAID TO BE
A GENUINE TRUMPET
OF ZION,

In the Royal Museum of Copen-
hagen there is and has been for
more than two hundred and seyen'
ty-five years a golden trumpet
known throughout Denmark as the
"Danish Horn" with engraved en-
blems, comprising the symbol Of
purity, the triple lily. It's weight
is 102 ounces and its measure two
feet nine inches in length. This
horn Is said to be a genuine trum-
pet of Zion. The surrounding cir.
cumstances strongly sustain the po'
sition and up TO the present time
there has not been the slightest
scientific doubt as to the genulneness
of the relic. The lily, rs symbol
OF purity, was generally carried In
the right hand by the vestal virgins
Of the temple; it also forms the en-
blem on the "shekel," the jewish
coin. There are also discernible
the much efiaced remains of what
has the appearance of pomegrsn-
ates, and traces of an inscription
which, as far as it can be made out,
is engraved in that kind Of Hebrew
characters known as the Samaritan
text. The emblems and inscription
may be easily accounted for and &C.
copied for the meaning of the word
jehovah
The trumpet was discovered by a
farmers daughter, partly concealed
in the ground, in 1880, ir the do
cese of Rypeny, Jutland. AS to
how it found its way from Pales.
tine to Denmark can only be con-
iectured at. 1t is accepted as a
fact that the relic at one time was
one of the instruments anciently
used In SolomOn's Temple. Ger
tain ornaments, and especially the
beautiful engraving near the open
ing OF the large end Of the instru'
ment, forming a turreted border
around its edge, are the most con-
vinclng proofs for this POSITION
When Titus VespsSianus, theyouth'
ful Roman General, subjugated In
dea and destroyed its temple, he
took the renowned tables, the sew
en.branch candle stick, the "Sacred
Books and the trumpets to Rome,
where they were, with other trophies
of victory, carried in processing
through the city in honor OF the
conquerer. Upon the arch OF Titus
these things we're sculptared and
NAV be seen in Rome in fair state
of preservation to-day. The "Sa'
cred Books" the victor presented to
Josephus Flavius, the Jewish his
torian. Afterward, when Titus be-
came Emperor of Rome, the instru-
ments and stables of schew bread"
by decree of the Senate and Coun'
Gil of Rome, were placed in the
great temple of Jupiter. Between
the fourth and sixth centuries Rome
was Overrun by hordes Of northern
barbarisns. The city was taken,
religion for the time dethroned, aud
temples, regardless of their sancti'
ty, sacred or historical. we're sacri.
plundered. Alter their
retreat from Rome the yandals car
red of with them the spoils they
had seized in the temples.
This trumpet of gold, which cor
in every particular with
the trumpets sculptured upon the
"Arch of Titus" was doubtless car
RED to the North with the other
plumber, and in turn lost By the
conquer ors of Rome, who had taken
it from the conquerors of the Jews.

THERE are few, if any, counties in
this State where a straight prohibit
ton ticket would carry, but there are
many counties in which the prohi-
bitionists hold the balance of power,
and the old parties are going to feel
it in the elections this year wherever
they fail to put outgood and worthy
men for Office. There are many pro-
hibitionists all over the State who are
going to vote for the best man, with
out regard to his political affiliations.
Prohibitionists should demand of
both parties that they put out as their
candidates pure men, men whose
lives and characters rise above the
saloon level, men who are not walk
ing swill tubs. If they can not get
men who advocate and favor prohi-
bition principles, they should at least
demand men who will not prostitute
the offices with personal drunkenness.
If they cannot get prohibition they
should at least demand sobriety in
Office. A sober Republican is prefer
able to a drunken Democrat. No
man is worthy of official preferment,
or capable of properly discharging
the duties Of any public Office whose
mental or physical organism is SO
weak as to require the constant slim.
ulous of intoxicants. There fare toe
many men in high official positions
who would be towers of strength and
worthy representatives of the people
if their brains were not cooked in
whisky. The prohibitionists of Ten
nessee are strong enough to inaugu
rate reform in this matter, and we
hope they will do it. If the Demo
Gratis of this Congressional district
should be foolish enough to put W
some little whisky head as their nom
inee, and the Republicans put. out {
sober man, the Democrats is as certain
to get beat as election day comes
And if the Democrats of the Stat,
put up whisky head for Governo
he will narrowly escape, if he doe
not suffer, the same fate.

To the Preachers of the Murfreesboro

Dear Brethren Please observe the
"Week of Prayer and Self-denial" in
every pastoral charge and in every
congregation. Where it is not prac-
ticable to hold daily service during
the week from April 1 to April s in
elusive, give one Sunday in the
month to each congregation. By
this means you can give every mem
Der of the Church in the Murfreesboro
District the opportunity of making a
self-denial offering to Missions during
the month. Send to DIR. /. G. John,
Missionary Secretary, for leaflets,
circulars, tracts, programmes, and
abundant information on the subject,
and let the people have the light.
This will require some self-denial and
effort but we can make any sacrifice
of time and labor for the Master.
Keep the offerings thus gathered
separate from the regular assessments,
