Captain Totten, clusters all the chron-
ology Of scripture. He goes into this
at length to clinch the statement. He
bases the prophecy OF the ending OF
all things next March largely upon the
parable of the householder who sent
the laborers into the vineyard at the
different hours (Matthew 20). and paid
each penny irrespective of the time
he labored. The hours spoken Of by
Jesus are according to Captain Totten,
each 153 years and a fraction long.
There were twelve hours altogether.
A calculation makes twelve by fifty
three and the fraction 1864 years
and brings us to the year Of the world
58272. This was the end of the twelfth
hour, the prophet says, and IL one gen.
eration-that is, the generation that
shall not pass away"-be added we
have the year of the world 5897A, or
March, 1899 A. d. "Who SO is wise
will ponder these things" adds this
mathematical seer. when human
calculations fail they do SO because

fish which pass through the meshes OF
the mind. II We are able to catch

A reference to the chapter and verse
OF st. John named will show that when
Simon Peter drew the net to the land
at the Sayior's command there were
l53 great fish in 1t. After saying that
in the householder parable each hour
mentioned is 1873 years and fraction
long Captain Totten says that one
ninth of the first hour was up at the
presentation of Christ in the temple;
that one-fourth had passed at the cruel
fixion and that during the remainder
the new testament was written. This

hire laborers into his vineyard" The
Savior passes over the second hour
without mentioning 1t, but the third
sees the householder going out and
hiring more workmen. Captain Tot
ten fixes each hour as the time of
some historical event of immense in
terest to Christianity. He says: "The
third hour, 3x153. equals 459. the year
Rome told Britain to care for herself"
The SaSons and Goths were converted
when the fourth hour struck. In the
parable the Savior skips two hours and
Captain Totten says it is no wonder
that he did so, for the times taken up
by those hours years. were exceeding
evil. At the sixth hour, when the
householder brought in more 1aborers,
ALFRED the Great translated the Bible
into our own tongue. The Norsemen
were converted to Christianity and in
later years came into England and
rounded out our race" The Savior,
the military prophet believes, did right
in passing over the seventh and eighth
hours, the time of the dismal middle
ages" The ninth hour is tolled off
and Wyckliffe, the morning star, Knox,
Huss and Jerome of Prague, hear its
tones. The English reformation is
dawning. At the close of this hour we
find Luther, Tyndall and Melancthon.
Nothing is heard of the tenth hour
in the Savior's prophetic parable and
cit was we'll left unmentioned. for it
was the age of hacksliders." The elev-
enth hour brought honest laborers into
the vineyard, 'as the pilgrims and the
puritans prove" to all readers of his
tory, and at the eleventh hour was Civ
en- to the world the Bible of King
James.
"The twelfth hour has struck; now 1t
is eventide and a far more striking
parable concerns this generation. It
means the second advent The years
from 1892 to 1899 are loaded with the
besorn of Jehovah's Judgment. Verify
the sword now hangs above us by the
last unraveling thread"
It is necessary, in order to get the
exact basis OF Captain Totten's predic-
lions, to read the seriptural references
carefully. When st. Peter drew the
1853 fishes to land the Lord was pres
ent. 1t was after the crucifixion and
resurrection and none dared say. "Who
art thou9" II is to this fact and to
the number of the fishes which is given
| so specifically as lone hundred and
fifty and three" that is owing the
statement made by Captain Totten that
while the draught of 1853 fishes made
the disciples feel the Lord was near.
| the calculation of the parable and the
| certain fixing of the hour as 1853 years
| should make us feel now beyond a
| peradventure that the second coming
| is at hand.
| The parable of the householder Is
one of the least foundation upon which
Captain Totten rests his prophecies.
1t was chosen for illustration because

calculations. automatically perfect to

that $500 was required for a contin-

Rev. Harvey Officer, rector of st.
Philips mission, made a fervent an
peal for assistance. He stated that
the mission needed funds for the erec
ton Of a chapel.
There nre 100000 colored people In
the country, declared Mr.. Officer.
Their spiritual welfare is one of the
greatest problems Of the day. They
cannot be expelled or exported and
there is no chance for the race to die
out, as has been the case with the
american Indians. There has been a
Keeling among the colored race that the

Our defects Of Organization and practice
are many, but welfare part and parcel of the
one holy Catholio and Apostolic church, in
which the Holy Ghost took up his abode on
the day of Pentecost There is an aristocracy
Oh wealth, for rank is but the guinea stamp;
an arlstocracy of learning as in the case of
the graduates OF the high school compared

racy OF heaven, represented by the Apostles
Peter James and John in the company of
the apostles. In everything the aristoeracy
inhabitants there are 5000 only who are ca
pabie OF approaching the privileges of our
communion.
The two forces which develop spiritual
character to its uamost are sacramento grace
and the teachings of Scripture. Sacramento
grace is bestowed through the sacraments ad-
mnlstered by the apostolic ministry. In this
particular We are blessed. As to Scripture, a
man is what he thinks and If he thinks
scripture his thoughts are Gods thoughts.
Inc words OF our Lord are spirit and life.
we have the open Bible. which we pray that
we may read, mark, learn and inwardly di-
gest Our church has a standing and in
nuence in the city beyond anything war
ranted by the number of it's members but
which is to be ascribed to it's divine origin,
which it has in common with the Roman
Catholics, and It's open Bible, which it shares
with the evsngelicafs. In the ecclesiastical
ar--t OF the city our church occupies the po-
sition of the keystone. To have high opin-
ion OF oneself and to do nothing to gain the
good opinion of Others is to make oneself ridic-
uious, but to be highly favored is call of
God to great eXertion. That is our position.
The battle in which cody people en-
gage in this city is not to be won by the
great injury they infict upon those who op-
pose them. The Lord Jesus did not slay His
foes. but offered Himself to be slain for their
salvation. His army, in like manner, are to
be willing TO suffer for the good Of their
fellow citizens. God hath reconciled us to
Himself by Jesus Christ and hath committed
to Us the ministry to reconcile our fellow
citizens to God.

with no one did he discuss his case
During the morning SouthaI was Wis

Father and son appeared to converse
Only about things foreign to the
thoughts that doubtless filed the mind
OF each, but after the boy left Southall
appeared quite cheerful.
In the afternoon Mr.. Nelson, the
prisoners attorney, called to see his
client, and the two spent some time
in earnest conversation. Southall de-
clined to talk about himself for pub
LcatiCn. BY Wednesday, he said, he
would undoubtedly have a statement
to make, referring to the hearing of
his motion for a new trial. Attorney
Nelson said there was nothing to say
about the case, except that there
would be new developments Wednes-
day at the hearing.
