PROF. ToTTEN's IDEAS.


 X General War, Then the Millennium.
 This is Professor Totten's latest and official conclusion:
 1T believe and teach that we GS96 to 1902 A. D.) are in the appointed or week of years that terminates with the afore- ordained. .2,52O years measured from Nebu cha dnezzars S era (625-618 B. @. and that it also ends with that of 1,26O years from the bisection at tn career of Calf Omar and his suece sor (63J-62l A. D) In this seven year terminal pc- rod or time of the end, and at the end of it, I look for an advance of mortal humanity as such with some astonish- ing evidences of immortality for few, as promised in Holy Writ. It is not nece ssary for me to go into details, they are found in my dis e3afded works. False institutions will collapse from having come unto their full; better ones will succeed, while the world and it's generations and it's pSopl-s and tongues-anple remnants here and there and whole bodies and rations elsewhere-will move on and into the golden age, or into the mill num- by which name it is best known to Chris tians.
 That age I believe, will compass the seventh thousand years of that week of thousands of years measured from it down in the terminal of whose sixth day or sixth thousand years we now live. Let it be understood that I am speaking of the chronological age of this generation in its relation to that of the first man Adam, firm whom we are descended according to the Biblical chronology of the genealogies as writ ten.
 T have no doubt that mucth, if not the bulk of all this transition will be ef- fected upon the ground plane of hu- man experience; through wars, or rath- CT through universal war the like of which has never before been experi- enced by man-(and he is getting ready for it fast)-accompanied by crisis of internal confusion equally abnormal everywhere and in every nation
 Ten years ago I first began to write and advocate an Anglo-Saxon alliance upon some basis or other and events of this year have borne out my work. The very foundation of my books is Anglo Americanism and it's fruit is already in sight. I did not prophecy nor forsae it. The prophets did. I have merely be- lleved the prophets and things are com ing out as they wrote and I have cop jed and interpreted, and more also is coming. My contention has always been that this would come about for the English speaking people are the literal, lineal and hood descendants of the ten lost tribes of Samaritan Israel. From now on to 1902 A. D. I expect events to move around Palestine in such way as to attract the attention of the entire world; indeed I have taught this movement since 1S9l and I call attention to the movements that | have already begun.
 Tn my early studies made mistakes l but I corrected them as the truth was | ferreted out. and I have modified my conclusions as to the end of the age, and fer years I have taught 1899 as the m.d-year of. this terminal week of yea s that really extends up to the fall of 1902 1 A. D. Now, mind you, I do not say end of the world but end of the age, which is far different"

SLEIGHRIDE ACCIDENT.


 D. E. Bowers of New Haven came to this city yesterday to visit his broth CT, Dr. w. C. Bowers. and the two went out for a sleighride. At the cor ner of North Washington avenue and Grand street a snow bank was en- countered and teams, in order to pass it, have been obliged to take to the sidewalk. Dr. Bowers guided his horse to follow the course taken by others, when the sleigh struck the bank and was upset The occupants were thrown out and the horse, becoming frightened, began to kick and finally broke loose from the sleigh after mak- ing a partial wreck of it. Once re- leased the horse ran across to Main street and then turned to go down town, but was caught by some boys after running a short distnce.

Arranees for His own Funeral.

Joaquin Miller, tho poet of the

of his strange career he has per-

for his own funeral and the incline

his soul shall have escaped to the
Great Beyond. On the top of q
sterile eminence in the hills in Ala

A TOWERING PEAK.

In Alaska.

Highest Mountain in North America Found
In Alaska.
The G. II. Eldridge geological
survey party, which has just re-
turned to Seattle from Cooks Inlet,
is declared to have discovered the
highest mountain in North America.
The peak, which towers far above
Mount St. Elias, is situated in
Alaska to the right of the Sushitna
river. The government topographer,
it is said, took triangulations for
the elevation, ascertaining by scien.
tific calculation the exact height of
the peak which he declared to b.
more than 10000 feet. The noun
tain was named Bullshea, a word
spoken in exclamation by the In
dian guide of the party on first be-
holding the wonderful peak.
The members of the party are
reported to have expressed the
opinion that an ascent of Bullehea
would be almost impossible so steep
are it's sides.

The silver forces throughout the
nation combined against the COM
mon enemy, the Republican party,
in 1896. 1t is the only course to
pursue if the pernicious policies OF
modern Republication are to be
stamped out. This combination
enabled the silver forces to poll
over 5000, 900 votes, nearly electing
William. Bryan president, in spite
OF the enormous amount of money
used by the Republican manage
ment to prevent the will of the
people. The policy of combining
the silver forces is being adopted
this fall in many of the states and
the prospects Of the silver men
controlling the next House of Rep.
resentatives are bright.
This policy of combining the sill
yer forces has been adopted by the
Democrats and Silver Republicans
of this state. An excellent state
ticket has been named containing
the names Of both Democrats ano
Silver Republicans. "A doubt O.
the election of the entire ticket,
says the Idaho Falls Times, sis mo-
for a moment entertained by the
wisest politicians in the state"
In Blaine county the Democrat
and Silver Republicans formed
similar alliance and an excellen
ticket. containing the names o
both Democrats and Silver Repub
llcans, was put up. The ticket is
good one from top to bottom. l
can be found at the head of thi
column, and should be supported
by every conscientious Silver maj
or woman in the county. Like th
state ticket every name on il vii
