The Simplest of all Proofs That Christ

Upon Which Some People

The adventists at Battle Creek,
Mich. and in other parts of the coun-
try are again preparing for the lend
of the world" which they say is near
at hand. Inasmuch as the date of
the much talked and mysterious event
depends upon ones chronology, it is
evident that the chronology of
Adventism is an eminently practical
study. 1t was the chronology of the
thing that so absorbed the attention
of Lieut.. Totten, formerly of Yale
university. After much figuring he
decided that the climax was due in
1899.
In Chicopee Falls lives J. D. Rich,
who has chronology of his own. He
says that Totten is fool and that his
figures won't even add, subtract and
divide. He further declares that the
Rich chronology, which fixes the date
in 1927, is the only correct one, and
he challenges the world to break it.
1t was for the purpose of having him
elucidate his reckoning for the special
benefit of the public that he was re-
Gently interviewed. Mr.. Rich was
asked to explain how he knew that on
April 10, 1927, would take place the
second coming of Christ on earth
with all the accompanying phenom-
ena. AS he had several demonstra-
tions ready, each being a bewildering
compound of scriptural texts and
lunar and solar years, months and
days, he was finally urged to choose
of all his demonstrations the simplest
and clearest for popular reading; that

MURDER MOST FOUL.
A Minister Waylaid and Killed for
Preaching the Gospel.

Wisterman, a little hamlet in Put
nam county on the Glover Leaf, was
last week the scene of one of the most
atrocious murders ever committed in
the State. The community is some
what of an uncivilized one, more or
less lawlessness existing there and
crimes being of nightly occurrence.
Revival meetings were being held un-
der the direction of Rev. Joshua G.
Biggs, a divine of State reputation,
and he had stirred up quite feeling
among the better class of inhabitants
of the place, much to the hatred of
the lawbreakers.
There is no church in the communi-
ty, and the meetings held there have
resulted in a movement to that end
being inaugurated, and this, more
than anything else, has been the
cause of the feeling stirred up against
Biggs, and which resulted in his muir
der. The meetings have been held
in an old school house, and from this
building Biggs has found it necessary
to go several miles to his boarding
house. Monday night when the big
storm ragged in this section, there was
not much of an attendance at the
meeting, and when it was over Biggs
was compelled to traverse the entire
distance by himself The night was
the stormiest of any of the season,
and when he was some distance from
the little church he was waylaid and
killed. The tragedy was enacted near
the Glover Leaf track and his body
was thrown, as the murderers sup
posed, on the track but, in the blind
ing storm they did not get it on the
rails, and it was found in drift by
the side of the track in a badly mutt
lated state. The throat was cut from
ear to ear and the breast was slashed
and the heart almost cut out. Biggs'
watch and pocketbook We're missing
and everything of value on his per-
son was gone. AS soon as it was
found that he had not returned to his
boarding house it was suspected by
his friends that he had met with foul
play, as he had received many threat.
ening letters advising him to leave the
neighborhood or suffer the conse-
quences, but he was not frightened
and although he realized the tough
character of the neighborhood in
which he was, he said he would stay
and preach the gospel, even if it cost
him his life. The country is greatly
aroused over the tragedy and every
effort is being made to run down the
murderers. Biggs was an aged mar
and had done evangelistic work ovel
this State and Indiana for years.

The young fellow got large quan-

got to Dogtown, the road became too
narrow for him. He tore the fences
