JUDGMENT DAY PAST.
Continued from Eighth Page0

man could not be enlightened. 1t was
as when a sunbeam is cut off by q
black interposing cloud. or as when
the sun is eclipsed and it's light ar
rested by the interjacent moon.
Now, since all these interposing
congregations were dissipated by the
last judgment, ii is plain that the
communication between heaven and
the world, or between the Lord and the
church, has been restored.
Seeing, as no other man ever saw,
the intimate relation of the two worlds.
or the vital connection of spiritual
causes with natural effects, Sweden
borg was able to foresee and foretell
what would be the legitimate conse-
quences in the natural world, of that
great event in the world of spirits, of
which he assures us he was an eye
witness. Accordingly he said (and this
was written and published shortly af-
ter the judgmenD that the future state
OF the world and of the church, as
compared with what il had previously
been, would be as morning and day
compared with evening and night He
said that after the Judgment light
arose or began to arise in men in
the world, giving them new enlighten-
ment, that after. and in consequence
u tiiC last JuhS the reception Dy
the people of this world of divine truth
and good, became more universal. more
interior, more easy and more distinct.
and that therefore the Christian
Church while it would continue sub
stantially the same in it's outward
form, that is, in its creed or formu-
lated beliefs, would hereafter be diff
ferent in its internal form, because
spiritual liberty had been restored to
the man Of the church, because the
slavery and captivity in which he was
formerly, is removed, and from re-
stored liberty he can now, if he de-
slres, more easily perceive interior
truths
Matter of History,
"All this was written and unfinished
by the great seer nearly a hundred and
fifty years ago, and every student of
history cannot but see and acknowI-
edge that the state of the world and
OF the church since 1857, as compared
with what 1t had been before, has been
or is as morning and day compared
with evening and night Some stu
pendous event similar to that which
Swedenborg has described, must have
occurred in the realm of causes about
the middle of the eighteenth century
The events Of the last hundred years
showing such increased and ever-in-
creasing enlightenment on all subjects
since that time, viewed in connection
with divine prophecy and the growing
spirit of liberation, freedom and catho-
nclty In all the churches, furnish an
exceedingly strong presumption that
Just such an event as he described did
actually transpire.

AT THE THEATER

Mabel Paige and her clever COM
pany will, by special arrangement, pre-
sent tonight the much talked of "Jes-
Sc James. the Missouri Outlaw" and
it is certain that the theater viii again
be tested to it's capacity to see this
clever little star.
Jesse James" as a play is certainly
a thriller" and always keeps the au-
dience looking for the unexpected, and
theater-going people who like melo-
dramatic plays, will have an oppor-
tunity to crafty their wish to see Jes-
Sc at his livelest. The play has
love story which closely holds the at
tention of the audience, and the come
dy keeps 1t good natured. Miss Paige
viii appear as Jennie Summers, Jes-
se's sweetheart, Mr.. Willard, as Jesse
James; Mr.. Burdette. as Frank James,
and that jolly comedian, Mr.. DePew,
as the incorrigable COON" Lige Pump
kin.
Sherlock Holmes" the dramatiza-
ton of which win be seen in Savannah
tomorrow night, was the forerunner
OF new era in literature which has
swept with unerring flight throughout
the world of fiction. His only parellels
are "Dubosq," "Lesurques' and wi
docq" With these notable exceptions
detective stories have always taken on
the penny dreadful" style, if indeed
one may except Anna Katherine
Green's The Leavenworth Case and
Fergus Hume's Mystery of a Hanson
Cab" both excellent works Of modern
iction. Sherlock Holmes" however,
has elevated this odd class of literature
and placed its author on the top wave
of popularity. No little credit is due,
however, to William Gillette for
placing the famous character on the
stage. The dramatization created even
more of a furore than the book and its
vogue and attractiveness Is as wide
spread as ever. That it is a vehicle for
the present starring tour of Herbert
Kelley and Fife Shannon is a fact that
will further stimulate interest in
Holmes exploits. These two ex-
cellent artists are furnished with parts
that fit them as If they were taken to
measure.
"Lazarre," said to be the best pro-
duction ever made by Otis Skinner,
will have its first hearing in Savannah
Thursday. By reason of the favorab BILE

upon which the novel is founded, from
which Mr.. Skinner and Aubrey Bou-
cicault made the drama, has to do with

during the Reign of Terror and
brought to the new world. Particular
stress has been given to two of the
scenes which Mr.. Skinner has provided.
One of these-the young half-breed's

episode that proves to Lazarre that he
is of royal birth Another is the Palace
of the Tuileries at Napoleonic levee,

Tribute to Mckinley.

At Canton, Ohio, On Tuesday
night, a notable tribute to the mem
DRY of President Mckinley was paid
by his successor. President Roosevelt
was the principal orator at BAN
quet given under the auspices of the
Canton Republican League in com
memoration of the birthday of Nc
Kinley, and pronounced a brilliant
eulogy upon that lamented states
man. The concluding sentences
summed up a career that will be i'm
perishable in the nations annals.
President Roosevelt said -
ave can honor him best by the way we
show in actual deed that we have taken to
heart the lessons of his life We must strive
to achieve, each in the measure that he can,
something of the qualities which made Pres
ident Mckinley leader of men. mighty
power for good-his strength his courage,
bis courtesy and dignity, his sense of justice
his eveT-present kindllness and regard for the
rights of others. He won greatness by meet
ing and solving the issues as they arose-nOt
by Sinking them-meeting them with wis
dom, with the exercise of the most skillnl
and cautious Judgment but with fearless
resolution when the time of crisis came. He
met each crisis on it's own merits; he never
sought excuse Tor shirking task in the fact
that it was different from the one he had
expected to face The long public career,
which opened when as a boy he carried
musket in the ranks and closed when a man
in the prime of his intellectual strength he
stood among the worlds chief Statesmen,
came to what it was because he treated each
triumph as opening the road to fresh effort,
not as an excuse for ceasng from effort He
undertook mighty tasks Some of them he
finished, and there remain yet others which
he did not have to face, but which if we are
worthy to be the inheritors of his principles
we will in our turn face with the same unfal-
tering belief in the greatness of this country,
and unfaltering championship of the rights
of each and all of our people, which marked

Boundary Oispute.

The Alaska boundary dispute,
which has been the theme of more or
less heated discussion in Canada,
practically dates from the discovery
of gold in the Klondike region. The
Canadians desired to secure access
that region without passing over
territory recognized to belong to the
United States, and therefore laid
claim to strip of land necessary for
that purpose. Through Secretary
Hays efforts, an agreement has been
reached which provides for the sub
mission of the question to commits
sion of six jurists, three to be ap-
pointed by the United States and
three by Great Britain. The ar
raugement was proposed by the
Secretary in 1899, but was rejected
by the British members Of the Joint
High Commission, at the instance of
the Canadian Government The
British representatives proposed the
appointing of a seventh member of
the Commission to have the casting
vote in the event of an equal divis-
ion. The proposition was accepted
by the United States, but disagree
ment having arisen as to the APP
pointment of the seventh Commits
sioner, the plan failed. Now the
British Government accepts the plan
which it rejected four years ago, and
the arbitration will proceed.
The Commission is to determine
the Interpretation to be placed upon
the treaty of 1926 between Great
Britain and Russia, which defined
the boundaries between the British
and Russian America of that time.
Based upon that treaty the case of
the United States is a strong one,
and a decision favorable to this
country is to be expected.

All honor to Lamoille County, She
turned out a good vote and rolls up
majority of 1914 against high
license. Every town in the county
gave a "No" majority. While the
general result is different than we
wish, we are exceedingly proud of the
handsome majority the county rolled
up against the high license law.
Lamoille has no reason to feel
ashamed of the part she took in the
movement. Every town did nobly,
and while the honors for the largest
majority go to Johnson, the other
towns made an excellent noble record.
"Spunky Lamoille" is all right and
her work on this occasion certainly
rebounds to her credit.
