THE DAY IS At HAND

Judse-Address Created a Big
Excitement.

Chicago, ILL.,, April DIR. John Rob
ertson, who held services in the First
Presbyterian church, has created a
sensation by announcing the end of
the world in ninety years. He says:
THE day of Judgment is at hand.
Roughly speaking, about 1000 years
have elapsed between each coming of
the Lord. After he created man, it
was 1000 years until he appeared
again n 1000 more until the coming
of Christ. Reasoning by inductive an
alogy. the end of the world and the
fourth coming of the Lord are not far
distant. This time he will come as a
Judge"

NO REC0|L TO A GUN
NE" DAMP-PRoOF, SMOkELESS
AND oDoRLEss POWDER IN
VENTED BY HOOSIER.
Exciting Attention of Government Of
Gals and Is Now Being Tested
Can Be Manufactured BY Army
and Mixed BY the BarreI-Drives
Bullet WITT Tremendous Force.

Washington. April flames Mitch
ell of Indiana has invented "a powder
that is exciting the attention of gov
eminent officials. Great things are eX
pected of this powder. which, if tests
bear out the claims. will settle the
question of the progress of ammuni-
ton. The army can carry its own in
gradients and mix the powder in a
barrel as it is needed. Dampness has
no effect on it. A sample was soaked
in water for three weeks and ten min
utes after being taken out was ready
for use.
A claim of the inventor is hat there
is no recoil to a gun dischal ged by the
use OF his powder. The most expen-
sive parts of the heavy guns on war
vessels and in land forts is the me-
chanism to take up the recoil.
The powder is a pinkish granular
substance and. it is claimed, has three
times the explosive force of any pow
der now in use. 1t is smokeless and
odorless. The agents of the inventor
claim it gives off no gases of any. kind
and VIII prevent the headaches so re
quent among the gunners of the army
and navy after target practice. The
new powder cannot be exploded by
conclusion. but only by spark, making
it safer to handle that the powder now
in use. Tests made by the inventor
have shown the force of the powder t
% sufficient to drive a bullet from a
No. 80 Winchester rifle through thirty
SIX inches of oak. seventy inches of
pine and one and one-half inches of
steel at a distance of thirty feet.

THE SULTAN'S JEWELS.
A Glimpse Into the Treasury Of the

A party of American tourists saw

footstool accompanying it. were Gov
cred with beaten fire gold. and the
entire surface of each was thickly
studded with precious Jewels, chiefly
diamonds, emcralds and sapphireS.
There were also some pearls. rubies,
and ether minor precious stones. The
estimated value Of this throne and ac-
compartments alone is s20,000000.
The turbans. official paraphe-nalia
and arms Of the former sultans are
also there. glittering with enormous
precious jewels of every kind in every
part. The throne OF Suleiman II. is
also there. resDlendent with the most
valuable Of precious Jewels
There is also a writing desk or sec
retary, CT ordinary size of the same
character, and hundreds on hundreds
CT other minor objects OF public and
private character. made of the finest
materials, most perfectly. and decorat-
ed in every part with the same kind
and quality Of most precious jewels,
from finger ring and pipe to sad.

For example, there are many coffee,
tea and other drinking sets. made of
gold, porcelain and VARIETY of other
fine materials beautiful il form. style
and workmanship, whose decorative
figures are worked out in a profusion
of the most precious jewels, diamonds,
sapphires, emeralds and rubies. the
edges of the cups, mugs or tankards,
as the case may be. being embossed
with diamonds IN such a manner as
to make them complete circles Of gilt
tering splendor.
To enumerate all the priceless OBJ
jects which the sultan's treasury con-
tain would require a small library of
books. Suffice to say that our party
of tourists was of the opinion, ex-
pressed then and there, while viewing
the treasury's contents, that what we
saw with or own eves was of suffi
cient value. in dollars and cents. to
pay off the entire Turkish debt. and
that such an exhibition of splendor
was a sad commentary on the general
status of the people there. a large
part Of whom lived In abiect squalor
and want close to the very doors of
the treasury.
Oriental splendor as experienced
and illustrated by the Sultan of Tur-
key is not myth, but distressing real
ity, indulged in at the expense of his
wretched people. Wherever he is there
are the same lavish and expensive lux
ury and splendor. His palaces and
all they contain are Of the same cost

materials, a most beautiful style and
artistic design and finish. and every.

Hope On.

There was never day so misty and gray
That the blue was not somewhere above
it:
There is never a mountain top ever SC
bleak.
That some little flower does not love It
There was never night SO dreary and
dark
That the stars were not somewhere
shining
There is never cloud so heavy and
black
That it has not a silvery lining.
There is never a waiting time. weary and
long.
Tha: will not sometime have an ending:
The most beautiful part of the landscape
is where
The sunshine and shadows are blending.
Into every life some shadows will fall
But Heaven sends the sunshine of love:
Through the riffs in the clouds we may
If we will.
See the beautiful blue above
Then let US hope on though the way be
long
And the darkness be gathering fast:
For the turn in the road is a little way
Where the homc-lights will greet us at
last.

employ much larger standards OF CON-
parisCn than pounds and tons. FOr
instance a blast furnace large enough
to receive at one charge all the metal
that passes through all the blast f"r-
naces Of the country tn one year
would have to be built to contain
1000 100000 cubic feet. Or to use
the slightly more conceivable compar-
ison, it would have to be tweEty-four
times as large as the great pyramid OF
Cheops. The coke used in the process
OF manufacture would, if piled up In
a column 400 feet square, reach 6,5oo
feet up into the skies. and the iron
ore from which all the products are
made, would, II piled up in column

rails were rolled into one huge rail,
