WORLDS END WITHIN A DECADE.
\ Tabernacle Elder says tho Second Com
ing Is ut Hand.

New YopK, May %. The Young peo
pie connected with DR.. Tslmage's taber-
nacle now have new topic. 1t was
brought out ut the young peoples meeting
Tuesday night. Albert Wadham, one of
the elders of the church, assumed. the lead
ership in tho absence of Mr.. Louis Klppsch
aud read a number of Scripture passages,
on which he made elaborate comments
In the course of his remarks he said: at
is also given to the children Of the Heavenly
Father to know the exact time of the COM
ing of the Lord. | myself expect to be
among the living when the trumpet shall
sound. and 10 personally witness tie resur-
recticn Of the saints. The Lord has said
that he would shake both the earth and the
heavens, and at the present time an average
OF three earthquakes take place in a single
day. Hence, let US not consider worldly
ad vautages, lest we lie among those left out
fl ON the glorious company above, but let
US watch and pray Tor the peace OF Jerusa-
lem and the church.
Upon the conclusion of these remarks
Jesse Crandal, the wei! known inventor of
mechanical TOYS. asked whether the leader
thought the exact time of the second com
ing could be ascert aimed.
al think, " the leader roplisl, although
within the present decade. "
81 ON an old man, " said Mr.. Crandall,
land will probably not live to see that day.
Ought | not. therefore, to seek to do the
will of God without thinking CT the second
coming"
"No on should not, " replied the leader. 81
think that it is our duty, and commanded
Of God, to watch and pray for the great aud
terrible day. Beside, you probably VIII be
yet alive when it arrives Pray that your
life may be spared you.
"W hat evidence have you of the near sp-
proach of this time 49,
There are signs in the stars and the
hoaveus. Everything points to a speedy
elimination of the present epoch"
A the close quite dispute arose between
the leader ard some OF his hearers concern
ing certain sbtruse doctrinal points, which
was rather abruptly erded by this recital of
n comic piece by Mr.. Crandal which
drove all controversy rom the floor and
broke up what promised to be an lntormin-
able discussion.

FosroRIA Ohio May go Charles Eos
ter, ex-secretary OF the treasury, assigned
to-day. He was in the dry goods business
and lost heavily in unfortunate investments
of late, and also by endorsing notes for
business and political friends. He states
that his liabilities ara 5000, 600 and the as
sets about the same. The bank Of Foster 81
Co. and the wholesale grocery house of
Davis d Foster were closed this morning by
attachments.
The assignment of ex-SecretarY Foster
was the signal for the assignment of a mum
Der of concerns in which lie was interested.
The brass and iron works was one Of these
concerns. The liabilities and assets of this
company are included with the personal
statement of tho ex-secretary. The NAM
hourge, Calcined and Croker Window
Glass companies, three concerns that have
been backed by Mr.. Foster will also assign.
A half dozen prominent industries will 60
to the wall and hundreds Of persons will be
thrown out of employment.
Business men who were depostors In tho
Foster a Cos. bank will he losers, but it is
believed none viii suffer 10 an extent that
will cause ttem to assign. A run was
made on the Mechanics Savings bank this
morning, but with $40, 900 in currency
piled upon the cashiers desk the demands
OF all depcsitors were promptly met. 1t lie
generally conceded that Mr. Fosters un-
stinted generosity aud phenomenal public
spirit have been the indirect causes Of his
financial downfall.
The assignment of Davis &, Foster, whole
Gale grocers, will probably be the cause of a
number of failures of concerns throughout
the country, and it is said the firm has 1920,
600 unped accounts and notes due it. The
deposits of the bauk at the time of its las.
| statement were about $40. 600
Mr. Foster has issued q statement to the
public. He says words cannot express the
deep distress aud humiliation which he feels.
He knows the failure has injured many
people, but he hopes that none are to be ru-
ined.
He refers to his futile efforts to avert q
financial disaster and says ho can see that
| in settling his affairs through the courts,
thus compelling assets to be reduced to cash,
large sacrifices will he made. This being
So he cannot give encouragement that his
debts will be paid in full. Davis a Foster,
he states, have surplus Of $50, 900 and
ought to pay in full.
He believes the business concerns OF the
city are in sound condition and that the two
banks are especially strong lie has given
mortgages to two women who relied upon
him to invest their money, about $1,000.
Iio attributes his downfall to neglect OF
business occasioned by devotion to polite;
/ ami to an Jealous desire to build VI
Fostorin. He states that he shall make il
the one purpose of his life to repair his for
tunes and PAYS his debts.

A BAD TOOL.
FARMER MkckEY OF oRRvlLLE STILL
SURVIVES,

Sensational circumstances Surrounding
the Attempted Assassination-Thou
to be the Tool OF Enemies-Has Dluded
Arrest.
w. A. Maokey, farmer residing two
and half miles northeast Of Orrville,
was shot In the head Monday afternoon
by an unknown man. Several days ago
the man applied TO ~ E,ckey for employ
ment, which was refused him. The bum
secured quarters with fam
lily next door and Monday afternoon
when Macksy went into field,
the stranger followed. In some way be
detracted the mans attention from his
work, and he shot. The bullet IL lodged
at the base of the brain, which will induce
death. The tramp escaped.
Some sensational circumstances seem
connected with the attempted asaassinn'
ton of Farmer Mackey near Orville
Monday afternoon. The tramp thus faI
has eluded arrest and bis victim survives
though he is parslyzed In bis right side
The Qryille Crescent has the following
ty say concerning the affair!
"The motives prompting the attempted
assassination are wrapped In mystery and
will probably remain q secret tuntil reveal
ed by the capture and imprisonment oi
the perpetrator of the heinous crime
That II was not prompted by robbery II
quite evident from the fact that Mr.
Mackey would take no vAluables with him
to the field while plowing. It IL broadly
limited by some who are In q position tc
know that the attempted assassination II
the result of bitter feud involving the
breaking up of the once happy home ol
the parents of Mrs. Mackey, who are eact
suing for divorce. AZ to the truth oi
this last report we are unable to say
but In any event Mr.. Msckey
il the innocent unoffending victim
of the assassin's bullet, and II
is to be hoped that the perpetrator Of the
crime will not go unpunished, During
the time the tramp loitered around the
premises he gave no name except that OF
Smith. MIR. Root described him rs being
about 6N feet high, sandy mustache,
sandy hair, dark eyes, fair CONS
plexion; he wore q dark colored
sack coat, we'll worn brown colored
cap, also brown checkered over,
alls over his pants and brown checkered
shirt. Mrs. Mackey says she was In the
field with her husband during O portion
of the afternoon. The tramp was also
present and while there his conversation
consisted principally of desire to pro-
cure work,
The following description 10 given oi
the tramp: Thirty-five years old; five
feet, ten inches tail red mustache; large
gray eyes; brown coat; black checkered
brown cap; very slim; fine light stripe
overalls.
