Not First Jewish Cabinet Minister

A contemporary refers to Mr.. Os-

hold a position in a American cabi-

ANOTHER FELLOW LEARNS THAT

Seventh Day Adventist Hikes of to
India to Stir the People There =.
and Prepare Them for I'M
Mediate Coming of
the Lord
the Lord.

To warn the people of India that
| the end of the world is at hand and
to prepare them for the immediate
coming of the Lord, DR.. Herman c..
Menkel and his wife will sail from
| New York for Calcutta on Nov. 81.
Doctor Menkel, who is a member Of
| the Seventh Day Adventists and a
| firm believer in the prophecies of
the scriptures that the destruction
of all things temporal is about to
occur, is the head of the Institute
of Physiology and Therapeutics in
Denver, Col He will give up his
practice there and, leaving all be-
hind, will brave the terrors of a
tropical climate to deliver the mes
sage which he considers has been
given to him by the Almighty.
The Seventh Day Adventists,
said Doctor Menkel, "are carrying
the third angels message as it is
found in Revelations xiv: 9-12, where
trials and tribulations are prophe-
sled for those who will not hear the
word of God. The work which we
are especially doing at this time is
to warn the world of these things
and bring the men to repentance be-
fore the second coming of the Lord.
"In Matthew xiv: 32-39 we find
the direct prophecy of the speedy
end of this world. We read in those
last two verses, But as in the days
of Noah were, so shall also the COM
ing of the Son of man be. For as
in the days that were before the
flood, they were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage,
until the day that Noah entered the
ark, and knew not until the flood
came and took them all away; so
shall also the coming of the Son
of man be-.
This is an accurate description
of present day conditions.
I'm this same chapter it is writ
ten that the people of the genera
ton when all signs shall be given
will see the Lord come in his glory,
and we are that generation. The
signs have been given, there have
been great tribulations, wars and ru-
nlOES Ol wars, ldlS6 OHIISIS nave
arisen and everything now points to
the speedy end of time.
I'VE are in the position of Noah
before the food. He warned the
people of Gods wrath which was
about to be visited upon them, but
they went about their daily business
and gave him no heed.
while we cannot know the exact
hour or day of the Lords coming,
yet we are told we will know that
the time is near and with the full
fillment of all the prophecies as CIV
en- we now know that the end is at
hand ana in a few years more, in
your life and mine, the Lord will
come upon the earth for the second
time.
THE reason go to India is that
/ know the day is at hand, and in
going l am following the scriptural
command to deliver the message of
the Lords coming to every nation,
kindred, tongue and people"

pany in this district, came to Nash
vile Wednesday afternoon and was
clOseted for some time with Mes
senger Smith.
Among the messengers of the
company there is but one belief
That is that he was frustrated as the
result of his new service, and failed
to look after his work as an older
hand might.
That is just what Smith did,
said an old messenger He checked
up and found that all the packages
were in the car. He got them all
off, he thought, including the safe,
and was mighty glad, after his first
trip, to be relieved of responsibility
Probably, though I don't know, he
had hidden the two sacks away be-
cause he could not use the safe when
he took them on at Chattanooga and
had checked them when he had gone
over his book after he had got in,
but forgot to load them when he
took his stuff from the car.
Then l suppose that someone
came along and the sacks looked
good to him, and he jumped in the
car and emptied them. He certain
ly was a railroad man or he wouldn't
have been on the platform, and no.
body would suspect anything wrong
if they should see him jumping into
car. He may have gotten what
was there and gone through the
gates, or taken his own train and left
town.
Officials Decline to Talk.
"Mr. O'Brien declined to see any,
bodv to discuss the matter except
employees who might throw light on
the disappearance Of the contents OF
the sacks. NJ J. Laffey, who assigns
the messengers to their routes, and
who placed Messenger Smith In
charge of the car from which the
money was taken, was out OF the
city Wednesday, and other oflclals
declined to talk about 1t for the
most part. One of them did say:
q The messenger was unable TO
put anything in the safe after leaV-
ing Atlanta. Everything he re
ceived he was personally response
HE for. The express company IS
fully protected against loss by a
bonding company, but that is not all
if wants. What it wants is to eaten
the man who took the money ana
make him pay the penalty in order
tn show others of his kind that the
Southern Express Company can De
trifed with. 1t may take a year or
two. but sooner or later we Will lana
the guilty man.
