THE COMING OF Christ.
Adventists in Virginia Meet
with Disappointment.
1HgYexu :cTEo THE LORD TUESDAY,

ments OF White. They Went Sadly to
Their Homes-Their Firm Belief-The
Leader Uncertain ms to the Exact Date
OF Christ's Coming.
FREDERICKSBURG, Va, Oct 24-Since
Sept the Adventists of Virginia, with
those of Massachusetts, aud otner places,
have been holding series OF meetings at
'Screamersville. in Spottsylvania county,
near this city, and warning the people to
prepare for the coming of the Lord. The
date for the coming OF Christ was set for
Tuesday, Oct. %, and the widest excite
ment existed among certain classes in the
vicinity of Screamersville. All day Tues
day the believers. clad in garments of white,
were assembled IN their meeting house anx-
iously awaiting the great event The cloud
ing Of the sun at intervals was hailed with
joyous acclaim, the fatuous people believ-
ing that 1t was sign that the momentous
Corning was at hand.
Went Sadly to Their Homes.
When the clouds rolled by again and the
king of day reappeared in his usual form,
prayers, shouts and applications rent the
air, and means of disappointment were
ing fell with no indications OF the dissolution
Of this whirling world feeling OF deep sor-
row prevailed among the weary and worn
worshipers, who sadly departed for their
homes, there to await the call, that Is sure
to come in the near future, to again prepare
to meet the Savior. Their hope is unbound
ed, and has abated nothing becarse Of Tues
days disappointment
Elv,vr nalIaf
They firmly believe that they are the
chosen people, and that they will yet enter
the pearly gates In advance OF all other
Christian denominations. Tuesday was the
forty fifth anniversary of the going out of
the church to meet the Lord, In October,
1874. Delegations from Connecticut, Massa-
chusetts, New York, and Virginia were in
attendance, under the leadership OF Elder
Brown. These Adventists are Of the Miller
ite persuasion, and sustain no relations to
the Seventh Day Adventists.
Not So Sure OF tho Date.
Elder Brown, the leader Of the Advsnt
lists, says that October, 1889, is the month
and year, but he is not SO positive about the
date. He says the camp-meeting will con-
tinue for another week. About forty per-
sons are living on tho grounds in TENTS hav-
ing left their farms and stock to take care OF
themselves. An unbclieving farmer came
into the grounds Wednesday to get some one
to sew wheat for him The first person he
accosted was camp attendant, who gave
the farmer stony stare and remarked that
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
disguised, but unconverted.

LONDON, June 24-The speech Of the Aus
trian emperor 10 the delegations Of the ern
pire gives but little encouragement 70 thoss
who have been decrying the war prophecies
which have filled the air for the past two
weeks The full text OF the speech does moi
contain a single reassuring word. The em
peror expresses the hope that peace will con
tinue, but the strength OF his expectations in
this respect may be measured by the urgency
with which he emphasizes the necessity for
increasing the military force. The speech
shows no pains 10 conceal the emperors deep
distrust Of the Servian regency, nor is there
any effort to disguise the thrust at Russia
which the commendation OF Bulgaria's gov
ernment carries with it.
Evening journal., 1889-06-24

OF course some people will not be satisfied,
but they must remember the circumstances
under which the work Is being done, and
that eve are trying to do the greatest good
for the greatest number, and in the end all
will feel that we Lave been honest and sin
cere in our efforts IN their behalf
I'VE don't believe 1t will cost over half a
million dollars to clear up the streets and
cellars of the city. With force of 1000
men at work it will require about s200l0 a
week to pay them Off, and with this force it
will require not more than from ton to twelve
weeks TO finish up the work.
"It viii be seen by these figures that the
work Of clearing up the streets will fall far
below $500, 600, not forgetting 10 include in
this the Sl2O, oO0 put up by the Pittsburg re-
lief committee TO pay off the volunteer force.

apparently being borne out IN his statements
According 70 Ths Tribune, Brooks said hf
was on Thirty-seventh street in Lake View
when he met the men, but there Is no sucl
thoroughfare in Lake View. The driver OF
the mysterious wagon conveying the trunk
was masked SO says Brooks story as pub

companion to obtain IA good view Of thS
drivers face None Of the other persons wh(
met the wagon and the three men that NIGH

Brooks declares that picture Of Michael
Cooney is an exact representation Of one Of
the three men. Mrs. Jennie f. Fletcher, Of
Fort Wayne, whom Brooks describes as 4
cousin Of his is named by him as the lady
