The Two Eliiahs.

If we did not have John Alexander
: Dowie's own assurance that he is the
reincarnation of Elijah, most people
would fail to recognize the prophet of
old. He has changed amazingly since
the world knew him. No doubt
changes should be expected in a
period of some 5000 years, but some of
these changes are of such a character
that many good people seriously ques-
ton if Mr.. Dowie has not made mis-
take. They think there is evidence
that he is the reincarnation of some
body less favorably known in history
than Elijah.
For instance, the sturdy old Hebrew
prophet who denounced sinful
world and was carried to heaven in a
chariot of fire, was plain living and
even an ascetic person. His garments
we're of camers skin; and as for his
food. he would have starved had not
the ravens brought him food as he
wandered in exile by the river Cherith.
Tie modern Elijah has his palace cars,
his fine raiment, his table delicacies
and his millions of money obtained by
means that many consider shady.
Plainly the Elijah depicted in the first
book of Kings, and the Elijah whom
the New York papers describe as vex-
ing the echoes of Madison Square gar
den with the foul billingsgate of a
sacrilegious mountebank are not one
and the same. Dowie is a great man
in Zion City and his advance notices
we're most alluring but after enduring
him for a week New York is unani-
mously convinced that as Il prophet he
cannot deliver the goods.

The New York Press points out that
the ships of Germany's North Ameri-
can fleet seem to have developed Il
habit of dropping into inconspicuous
harbors such as Wilmington, N. c.. and
Pensacola. Fla. instead of confirming
cir'visits to such ports as New York
and Boston, 1t is intimated that this
practice is not inconsistent with a
thorough and systematic study of the
coast, made with view to certain
contingencies which it is to be hoped
will never arise. but for which, never
theless, Germany means to be pre-
pared. BY the new naval law Of Ger
many two home fleets are provided
which when completed will consist of Ii
battleships, 4 large cruisers. Il smaller
cruisers and 40 torpedo boats. This
force is to be kept in home waters
ready at all times for immediate ac-
ton. This will be a new element ii
Gernlanys naval strength and one
which cannot be ignored by either
England or the United States, particu-
larly in view of the fact that the
Kaiser is also maintaining large fleets

There comes from Connecticut the
familiar kick so often heard in parts
Of Maine during close time, that the
deer have been making much havoc in
the fields and orchards this fall, while
the farmers are too law-abiding to do
anything more to protect their crops
than to "shoo'' away the gentle and
confiding creatures. In Connecticut
there Is a continuous close time OH deer
until 1911. and they seem to appreciate
the situation. One paper declares
that by the time tie law is Off and
venison may be legally eaten. deer Will
be more numerous in the state than
cattle. The rate at which the deer
multiply under protection is used by
another paper as a text to preach
sermon against the cult of vegetarian
ism. It. points out that if the same
