GREAT THINGS TO BE.

Charles X. Holiday Listens to Explana-
tions of the Book of Revelations.
Charles K. Holiday late free silver
resubmi ission independent candidate for
chief justice of the Kansas supreme
court occupied front seat at the meet
ing of the Topeka Ministerial union at
the Y. n. c. A. rooms this morning.
The attraction for Mr.. Holiday was an
address OF lecture on the Book of Reve-
lations by Rev j. W. Bailey, D. D.,
father of Dr.. F. W. Bailey the county
coroner
Mr. Holiday explained to a STATE
JOURNAL reporter that he has bean max
ing a special study of the books of Rev
Citations and Daniel and was much inter
ested in DIR. Bailey's talk. The only
thing he did not agree with the speaker
upon was in the time for the fall of the
Turkish empire.
Rev. DR.. Bailey said from the prophe
cy of st. John in Revelations and the
prophecy of Daniel, which must be tax
en- as key to the book of Revelations the
Turkish empire or the dominion of Mo-
hamet, must go down and the fall will
come in about the year 1900. Charley
Holiday says he thinks Rev. Mr. Bailey
is wrong on that date and that the pres
ent trouble in Turkey is the beginning of
the end of the empire.
Mr.. Bailey figured 1t out and he quoted
a lot of incidents in history to prove his
statement that day in bible language of
prophecy means year. He said that
from the time of the establishment of
the pope of Rome his reign of 1860 years
of temporal power would expire in 1900,
which would be the beginning of great
revolution which would last until about
1945. This revolution, he said, would
cover all Europe, Asia and Africa, and
possibly the whole world, and that when
it ends the papal system will be over
thrown.
He then figured it out that after the
downfall of the papal system the world
will be governed by Christian rulers for
several years and then will come the
prophesied one thousand years during
which satan is to be bound and have no
power on earth.
The only thing about this that the
ministers did not like was that this time
is put off so long that they can't expect
to live to see their old enemy in chains.
The members of the union were so
highly pleased with Rev Mr. Bailey's
address that they invited him to give a
series of lectures on the same subject
For the purpose of hearing these lee
lures the union will meet every orday
morning for several weeks, and the lee
lures will be open for the public A
front seat will no doubt be reserved
for Charley Holiday

since the first of April or the last of
March. He passed the check last March.
There has been a standing reward of

Declares He Did MT Refuse to Par
ade With Troops.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Nov. 18,-"Its
lie. It's lie from beginning to end"
said Governor Aitge.d tonight when
asked about sensational story sent from
Atlanta to Il New York paper, stating
that he refused TO parade with the
United States army in the Illinois dav
ceremonies. "A lie out of whole CLOTH"
continued the governor. II Gid not
make programmes on this trip, and was,
in fact, only chore boy, aud took the
place assigned me without question. The
whole story is absurd"
The reason the Fifth infantry United
States army, stationed near Atlanta,
did not take part in the parade WAS that
Colonel Kellogg, lis commander. was not
notified in time. He was with Governor
Altgeld, however, at the review, and
Lieutenant Baker of the army was also
one of the reviewing officers. The lieu
tenant, who is here, also denies the story.
