A Pastime in The woods That Some
times Furnishes Odd Surprises.
The tribe OF camera hunters has in
creased prodigousIy of late years. lhe
craze has not penetrated the South,
where cameras are rare outside oil big
towns, but widely spread in the North
and West.
The camera hunter needs for outfit
a fairly good instrument, some strings
TO tie it in place, from twenty-five TO
dfty feet of rubber tubing and a lot
of drv plates or films His objects are
to get pictures of birds in air, birds
on nests, birds on perches, rabbit IN
form, etc.
Camera hunting mas merits, which
even old hunters do not deny. 1t is
practiced mostly in summer time with
nesting birds for subjects and does no
narm. 1t takes the camera hunter
into the field and teaches him the hab-
its of bird and beast.
1t gives him opportunity to acquire
4 knowledge of the points of the com
pass so that he will not get lost III the
woods. Its successful pursuit requires
patience, ingenuity, industry and some
endurance.

given, and all unsuccessful drawings

Prophet Andrew Jones Declares That
Famine and Destruction Are
Due Here in 1905.

Rev. Andrew Jones reiterated to a
large and appreciative congregation at
the Shiloh Baptist church last night
!, that he is a heaVen-inspired prophet,
and predicted famine which is to
spread desolation throughout the coun-
try in 1905. "Brethren," remarked Rev.
| Jones emphatically, "the Lord is on his
way to overtake and punish the coun-
| try for it's wickedness and this city
will not escape.
II have had a vision in which l saw
your buildings falling and men leaving
| the city in u rapid stream, to escape
from the awfu! disaster. Now, breth-
rem, don't wait till the evil is on you

opened his address by referring to the
recent damage done by storm i'm Balti-

this had been prophesied by him in
'96-'97 and 9S.
"In 1897" he declared 81 told group
of newspaper men in one OF Baltmore's
largest lecture halls that the Lord had
showed me what he would do to Balti-
more. When that storm struck the
city and tore the roof from that same
building, I'll warrant more than one
man remembered the words spoken by
Prophet Jones'"
"Right you are. God bless YOU"
cordially remarked dusky brother in
a front seat at this juncture, and
prayer was then offered by the pastor
of the church. Rev. Bodde, after which
MIR. Jones continued in his discourse,
choosing his text from Isaiah, XXiX:6,
Thou shalt be visited by the Lord OF

tive hearer. Eyes, sub, they found

point from Scriptures.
He told the story of the prophet,
jeremiah. and by the time that he had
reached the point of the prophets APP
Eearance before the king, the congre-
cation was in state Of enthusiasm
bordering on frenzy.
1.-THE king" said the prophet impress
sively, "said, take this man and clothe
him. Send him forth"
That's right. Just what he said,'
gently affirmed the brother, who had
spoken before and when the prophet
continued, "Nebuchadnezzar was an
instrument of the Lord, but he was not
a good man."
"Certainly not came back from the
congregation. Rev. Jones then launch
ed into description of what is going
to happen down South, when the day
of reckoning arrives. 1.-The Lord is now
on His way to the United States" he
declared land He Is going to do all
His fighting for Himself. He's going
to fight those savages and barbarians
down South that are burning up ne
groes and shooting them to pieces. The
governors of the states and the militia
cannot stop them, but the Lord, He
can stop them, and He has whispered
to me that He Is going to stop them.
~ am praying to God to save my
brothers down South, because some of
them are gentlemen They aren't all
murderers and leaders of wicked lives,
and the treatment they get is largely
the result of jealousy
"God bless you, Brother Jones' came
in chorus at this point from all over
the church, together with number of
sonorous "Amens," ana the prophet
Continued his voice assuming a high
sing-song, as he grew more and more
aroused.
"In my first six years work as a
prophet I had to sleep out I'm the fields,

NOT ACCEPTABLE,
Committee Of Common Council Not
Favorable to Annex Plans.
Brown Says It's Hold-up.

In addition to the fact that the re-
fusal of Hayes & Sons, of Cleveland,
to accept the $2S5,0O0 issue of city
bonds awarded them, will cause hold
up In the progress of the city hall i'm
proVements, which were to be paid for
out of the sum realized by the sale of
the bonds, there are other reasons why
work is not likely to be started at a
very early date on the proposed annex
to the city hall.
The plans drawn by Superintendent
of Building Inspection +. l.. Brown
provide for two-story structure, for
the use of the police and fire Depart
ments, the building to be finished ex-
ternally in notified brick. He speci-
fled this purposely believing that the
use of the same gray stone as that
employed in the construction of the
city hall, would tend to give the addl-
tion the appearance of small and in
significant annex, whereas If other ma
terial was used, the new building
would present an Individual appear

Last Thursday night the building

that standpoint, the third story idea

The members of the committee be-
lieve that third story could be pro-
vided for by economizing on the toi-
let's and baths. and some of the minor
fixtures of the building, leaving them
unfinished until a later date, when ef-
forts would be made to secure another
appropriation of about $4,000 for the
finishing of the structure.
