Brown here, who went about doing good"
Hence, from this standpoint one who
claimed to be reincarnation of Jesus
would be no more insane than Napoleon l.
who claimed to be the reincarnation of the
Emperor Constantine The truth is, how
ever, that no such claim has ever been
made by the leaders of the commonweal;
for in the Bulletin No. g." which was
issued several weeks ago and well scat
tered around Washington, Carl Brown the
marshal Of the commonweal, states that
he believes that "a portion of the spirit of
Christ is reincarnated in him. and another
portion in Brother Coxey, and still other por-
lions In tens of thousands of people now
living in these United States" Now.
ask. does this look like any claim TO Mes
siaship? The whole truth of the matter is
that these well-meaning men have INDUCED
in the same hgurative language we heap
from the pulpit on all occasions about the
second coming OF Christ in the hearts Of
men, whenever there is hope of any great
reform being accomplished which shall
benefit humanity.
Lastly, two-thirds of the human race to-
day believe in reincarnation; that men are
reborn again as human beings many times
TO gain the experiences which shall fit
them to enjoy eternal life when they shall
be one with the Father in heaven.
The Theosophical Society, which contains
many people who have won a worldwide
reputation in art, literature and science
has been for many years an advocate of the
doctrine of reincarnation.

WAITING ON THEIR ARMS.

Awaiting Hostile DeNeIopments.


The steamship George Sealey arrived at
New Orleans yesterday from Bluefelds, Mic

ION the eve of the 9Th instant a small
schooner arrived from Greytown, bringing
mail and several Nicaraguan officials.
Among these, to the great surprise of even
Lacayo. was the Wilson murderer, Norbut

In the mail brought here by the same

A Theosophist's View of Coxcy.

Ir referring to the so-called "Coxey
movement" In your leading editorial last
evening you say:
Sympathy with the movement is wide
spread and unreasoning. few people having
argued out the conclusion that a man who
claims to have with him two or three in
dividuals who are reincarnat tons of great
men long dead, and who is satisfied that
Christ himself in the flesh is one of the
band now voyaging on the Chesapeake and
Ohio canal toward this city, cannot be
much less than insane.
/ believe the above statement to be mis-
leading for the following reasons:
The general orthodox belief among Chris
tians is that in the person of Jesus Christ
"dwelt the fullness of the Godhead bodily"
hence, to such. one claiming to be a REIN
csrnation of Jesus would be making HIM
self equal with God. Now, there are many
denominations among the churches who
deny the especial divinity of Jesus, and
believe him to have been merely a great
and good man; on this point Mr.. Coxey
says: Jesus was merely reformer like
