GONE OUT TO MEET THE LORD,

Virginia Adventists Living in Tents
Their Farms and Stock Abandoned to
Take Care Of Themselves.
FREDERICKSBURG, Va, Oct. 24.-Elder
Brown, the leader of the Adventists
who are patiently waiting the coming of
the King of Kings, and the end of the
world, says that October, 1889, is the
month and year, but he is not positive
about the date. He says the camp meet
ing will continue for another week.
About forty persons are living on the
grounds in tents, having left their farms
and stock to take care of themselves. An
unbelieving farmer went into the
grounds Tuesday to get someone to sow
wheat for him. The first person he
accosted was camp attendant, who
gave the farmer stony stare, and re-
marked that he had no time to sow
wheat, he "had to go out to meet the
Lord" The farmer was snubbed in
other quarters and went away disgusted,
but unconverted.

cRoNIN CASE coRNERED.

Two Confessions in the Hands OF the
Prosecution That VIII Clear Up the
Mystery.
CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-The Globe says the
attorneys for the state in the Cronin case
are now in possession of two confessions
which will probably clear up the entire
plot to murder Cronin. One is from a
man who belonged to the inner circle of
Camp 20-John F. Beggs-and was
senior guardian Of the camp, and conse-
quently the head center of the internal
secret executive that ordered DIR. Cronin's
murder. The other is man at present
unknown, who was connected with
Coughlin, Sullivan, Burke and others in
executing the order. The latter was not
indicted with the other five men now on
trial with them. If his information
proves correct he will save his neck. The
former knows nothing Of the murder
beyond the order of the inner circle of
the camp, and for his information, if it
proves reliable, the states attorney will
ask nolle on his behalf just before the
case is finally given to the jury.

WASHINGTON, Oct. ELK -Commis-
sioner Tanner is out in long statement
in reply to Secretary Nable's letter of
July "a, on the subject of rerating pen
sions of pension Office employees. He re-
views the whole matter of difference be-
tween himself and Secretary Noble, and
gives considerable correspondence which
passed between them. He denies that
he meant to be insubordinate, but was
acting as he thought he had a right to
do. In concluding he says: II do not
blame the secretary unduly for the indig-
mites and discourtesies l suffered from
the department. Gen. Bussey sat at his
elbow, poisoning his mind, misrepresent-
ing and misconstruing my acts and pur.
poses. The fact is, I was not, in the full
sense of the term, commissioner for one
csotinuous week"

A GENUINE. SURPRISE,

Place.
The Appointment Looked Upon
as a Good One-Tanner
Likes It, Too.
The Ex.Commissioner Out in Another
Letter Regarding His Differences
With Secretary Noble.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-The president
has settled the long controversy over the
appointment of commissioner Of PEN
sions to succeed James Tanner, resigned,
by the appointment of Green B. Raum,
of Illinois, ex-member of congress, and
ex-commissiOner of internal revenue.
In none of the speculation about the sue
cession to Commissioner Tanner has the
name of Mr.. Raum figured prominently
until Friday night, and then the possibil-
ity Of his appointment was discussed by
few. Mr.. Raum's appointment as COM
missioner of pensions came as a genuine
surprise to most of those interested.
GREEN b. RAUM
was born in Golconda, Ills, Dec. 3, 1929.
He was admitted to the bar in 1853. In
1855 he removed with his family to Kan
sas, where he made himself obnoxious to
the pro-slavery faction. The following
year he returned to Illinois and settled at
Harrisburg. He entered the army as
major of the Fifty-sixth Illinois regi-
ment. He was made brigadier general
of volunteers on Feb. Is, 1865, which
commission he resigned May Q. He
served in congress from March 4, 1867,
till March 3, 1869. In 1875 he was presi-
dent of the Illinois Republican conven-
ton, and in the same year delegate to
the national convention of the Republi-
can party at Cincinnati. He was ap-
pointed commissioner of internal revenue
Aug. 2, 1875, and retained the Office until
May 81, 1888. During this period he
collected $3.50, ,000,O00 and disbursed
$50, ,OO0, 900 without loss. On his retire
ment from the internal revenue office
Gen. Raum began the practice of law in
the District of Columbia, which he has
continued until the present day.
NOBLE FEELS MUCH RELIEVED.
Secretary Noble, speaking of the selec-
ton of Gen. Raum, said he was chosen
from number of excellent men and he
thought would make a commissioner
satisfactory to the country. He felt
much relieved now that commissioner
of pensions had been selected by the
president.
DEPARTMENT OFFICERS ARE PLEASED.
Assistant Secretary Bussey, who has
immediate charge over pension matters,
is we'll pleased with the selection Of Gen.
Raum, and says he is certain he will 30
conduct the work of the pension Office rs
to give general satisfaction to all.
Among interior department officials the
selection is well received.
