END or THE WORLD
Is Close at Hand, According to the
Seventh Day Adventists.

CIIneoIn CNeb.l Cor. New York SUM-
The Seventh Dav Adventists again
are stirring parts OF the West BY their
prophecy that the end OF the world -
close az hand. Their beliefs are now
being spread IN Kansas, Nebraska and
Iowa, where many big meetings have
been held in the past month. A two
weeks camp meeting has Just come
to an end in this city.
The membership Of the sect is now
about rs. 900. principally in the West.
although missionary work has been
pushed for a score of years elsewhere
The centers Of propaganda now are
this city and Battle Greek, Mich
In 1874 Europe was invaded, and
great deal of the Scandinavian and
Norwegian emigration TO this region
came as a result OF these missionary
efforts. In 1885 a church was estab-
lished in Australia. Publications IN
81 different languages are now clrcu-
lated, among them some of the dialects
OF the South Pacific.
The Adventists do not fix any defi-
mite date for the end of the world.
They base their prediction upon the
prophecy of Daniel, in which II was
said that in 2, 300 days the sanctuary
would be cleaned. A day means
year, they say, ana the 2. 300 years
ended in 1914, the year set by Miller
for the end of the world.
The mistakes of the Adventists or
1874 pertalned to the nature OF the
event then to occur and not to the
time. they say. What took place
then, they believe, was the beginning
of the Day of Judgment. When that
is over the world will end.
The Adventists say the approach
of the end of the world is indicated
by signs of the times. as pointed out
in the Scriptures. The movement for
universal arbitration, they say, Is
fultilIment of the prophecy OF Micah
that in the last days many people shall
let the Lord Judge and nations shall
not war with each other. :,
Joel SAYS that while they shall talk
peace they shall prepare for war, and
the Adventists point to the great
standing armies and the war talk or
the day as confirmation.
In the fifth chapter of James 1t IS
predicted that in the last days the ricn
will be heaping up treasures ana the
poor crying because their hire IS kept
back. Every trust, they say. is sign
of the coming King, and every strike
the posting Of notice that the end is
near. -,
Matthew says the social world will
be IN the last days as in Noah's day,
and the innumerable crimes of the day
are quoted as confirmation. timothy
tells of the sins of the religious world.
and the Adventist preachers dwell
upon the theater- going. dancing. card
playing and rich dressing OF the church
members as proof of this condition.
The Adventists all dress plainly,
eschewing gold. jewels and rich attire,
and are generally model citizens.

"Why, yes, it must be. dear. Look

"No, it isn't"
"Oh, it must be. Look good. Found

HOUSEKEEPING LORE.
Various Bits of Domestic Informa-
ton for the Aid of the Busy
Housewife.

Flour used for cake should be the
pastry or winter wheat which Jumps
in the sitter.
Kettles should never be allowed to
boil dry and then be filled with cold
water, thus cracking the enamel.
Wash-silk waists should be washed
as the colored shirt waists. Before
they are wholly dry iron on the wrong
side. A little gum arabic water will
give the waist slight stiffness if de-
sired.
After your bacon is sliced off do not
throw away the rind as, useless. Scrub
off the outside with plenty of water
and vegeta BILE brush and use therind
with the scraps of fat remaining to
season your dried pea soup or your
kettle of greens"
To Prepare Starch.-Mix three Ia
blespeonfuls of starch with half cup
of cold water and cook 20 minutes.
Strain through cheese cloth and use
hot. While cooking add oDe-half tea
spoonful of lard or small piece of
wax. and this will help to keep the
starch smooth and prevent it from
sticking to the iron. A wheat starch
is considered best.
Did You know that iced coffee with
lemon is quite as refreshing as ICED
tea? Make an extra amount for
breakfast, pour what is left off the
grounds into glass jar.and set down
cellar or in the icebox to chill. At
luncheon or dinner serve in glasses
with Clipped ice and sliced lemon.
BY the way, never allow either tea or
coffee to stand on its grounds. Al
ways strain before setting away to
cool.
If the appetite flags and one feels
that it is "too hot to eat anything
an egg lemonade taken two or three
times a day will keep up the strength.
The acid of the lemon neutralizes the
bilious tendencies Of the egg and the
physicians frequently recommend it to
comsumptives or those with liver trou-
BILE. Either milk or water may be used.
To one well-beaten egg add two level
tablespoonfuls of sugar and the juice
of half a lemon. Fill the glass with
milk or water, beating rapidly as it is
poured in.

MORE LIGHT
TURNED ON.
Another Account of the Sellers
Fleming Affair.
The Grand Jury Will Investigate the
Fleming Is Some
Better.

Dan Fleming, the negro who was SO
badly slapped" Friday night by
ANDY Sellars at the Sellars restaurant
on the public square, IS considered
some better today, though he is still
irrational. 1t is probable that no
action will be taken in the city court
in this case, but that the matter will
be laid before the grand jury for In
vestigation.
A reliable citizen has stated to the
officers that he was walking along oy
the bowling alley toward Sellars res
taurant Friday night when he saw Mr..
Sellars rise up from the table where
he was eating supper and knock Flem-
ing down and kick him violently.
That as he, the witness, entered the
restaurant Mr.. Sellars kicked Fleming
on the head with the heel of his shoe
and said, SECT out of here, you
scoundrel. =
Fleming, the negro, did not move,
and Sellars catching him under the
arms dragged him to the kitchen and
threw him over into one corner, his
head striking the wall. where he was
left unconscious and almost lifeless.
The witness says that he asked MI.
Sellars what was the matter, and that
Mr.. Sellars replied, mot damn thing,
SIR" and returned to his supper as II
nothing had happened.
This witness further states that Con-
stable Nesbitt of the Goth district.
was in the restaurant at the time an q
eating at the same table with Mr..
Sellars. but made not the slightest
effort to protect the negro or preserve
the peace. And the officers say that
he never even reported the case.

REAL ISSUE 0P The CAMPAIGN
Trusts and Tariff Prominent Topics
Presented.

Washington, Sept 81. The roar OF
big Republican guns yesterday signal
ICES the beginning of the oratorical
whirlwind campaign planned by the
leaders of that party, and to the minds
of politicians here unquestlonaDly
marks the trusts and the tariff as the
all-a absorbing issues of the Congress

The speeches OF President Roosevelt,
Secretary Shaw and Senator Fairbanks
bear the impress of the recent oyster
Bay conference, where 1t was decided
that the Republican policy would be
to treat the trust and tariff questions
MS separate ana distinct issues and TO
oppose tariff revision.
ROOSEvELT'S WEAK PLEA.
President Roosevelt's initial effort
after the conference ana the Hender-
son episode is regarded as careful ana
adroit, but his argument against re-
ducing the tariff as one OF the RENE
dies for the trust evil is considered
weak, the gist of his plea being tnat

manufacturer. Democrats point TO
the small manufacturer who Is NOT In

of the rare curiosities in our presen

MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN
IN THE WHOLE WORLD.
Harry Lehr, Arbiter of the 400, Says
MISS Nathalie Schenck 10
the Paragon.

Chicago. Sept. 22.-The Tribune
prints the following from New York:
Harry Lehr, whose word - law and
pospsl with the 400" and whose social
Judgment, in spite Of his eccentricities,
Z oftener right than wrong. has de-
clared il as his opinion that Miss Ma
thalie Schenck is the most beautiful OF
the society women Of the world.
In the beginning he contented himself
with saving Miss Schenck was the most
beautiful woman in Newport; but sub
seouently he enlarged the scope TO IN
clude the wide, wide world, which
would have been audacious for any one
except Mr.. Lehr, who, although mar
ried to an attractive woman, has the
hardihood TO make the statement. NO
man in America has made feminine
beauty and gowns so much OF a study as
Mr.. Lehr.
Miss Schenck's home is in Babylon,
Ii. Her father, the late SpottsWood
ID. Schenck, was son OF the heV.
Noah Schepck, noted Episcopal
clergyman Of Brooklyn. 1t was Miss
Schenck who started the endless chain
TO collect money to furnish ice for the
wounded soldiers during the Spanish
American war. She realized so OOO IN
10 cent pieces by the scheme, which
means that this girl, then IL years old,
received 25O, 900 letters. These letters
came to her from four quarters OF the
earth, from every civilized country, IN
every language. Perhaps some OF them
are still travelling to her. The steady
stream lasted for thirteen months with
out a break. despite the most energetic
efforts to destroy the chain.
She was considered the best looking
girl in Babylon when she started the
endless chain, sud she was still the
eirlish beauty when she made her DOW
to society, but the loneliness that has
made her famous and drawn from
Harry Lehr the compliment, has reach
ed it's fuller development only during
the last year. Every one agrees MISS
Schenck never 10 ,ks better than she
does in evening dress.
The same eloquent admlrer, VINO
talked about the bewitching things,
said: "She is rare vision with those
matchless white shoulders revealed
above decolletage Of Victorian lowness
and blonde hair piled up bewilderlngly
on the crown of her graceful head,
leaving her soft neck in relief at the
back. Tulle and gauze and floating
things are her choice"
