INSCRIPTIONS CAUSE WONDER
Parts of the Inscriptions Have Been
Published in the Past but on Ac-
count of the Interest Taken in Them
the Full Text is Now Given.
(Fmm SATURDAYS Daily)

In keeping with the announcement
made in the Evening News a few days
ago, the famous old monuments of
Lewis Knapp, which have been in the
Kenosha City cemetery for many years,
were removed today. The last zone
of the old monuments will be down
this evening and Sunday visitors
at the cemetery will note a great
change tomorrow In past years
portions of the inscriptions have
been published in Kenosha and
other cities, but never has the full
list Of these strange inscriptions, COM
prising as they do one of the most re-
markable set of inscriptions known to
the literature of the dead, been pub
hshed. Without commenting on them
or their value to the living the Even
ing News this evening publishes the
full list of the inscriptions believing
that they will be desired by the peo-
pie of the city to hand down to other
generations. The Inscriptions have
not been arranged in the order in
which the monuments were erected as
there seems to be no one who can
give this exact order. The full text
of the inscriptions follows:
Greeted by Lewis Knapp
To the memory of bis brother
Charles Knapp, whose body lies else
where, while his soul goes marching
on, whose noble, genial and generous
characteristics astonished all around.
At first in life, Charles believed in
doctrinal tenets Of the Christian reli-
gion by which plenty Of psalm sing
ing, praying and faith in virgin
begotten child he would surely be
saved from an eternal inconsumable
roasting in brimstonefed, fiery, burn
ing lake never to be consumed, be-
cause all his childhood teaching taught
him to believe in this mammoth hum
bug. Had he been born in Turkey he
would have been a Mohammedan reli
zionist or in China a Confucianist or
a Laoatzean Tauist religionist. Later
in life historically he discovered the
Christian religion, which now, 1894, is
spiritualism, which was emergingly
evolved from Hebrewism, which was
emergingly evolved from Magian Par
seeism and it from Buddhism and it
from Brahamanism which was emerg-
ingly evolved from the Bactrian
country Spitania zarathustra in 70
roastrian religion, and it from Con-
fucianism, which was emergingly
evolved from Laoatzean Tauism, all
of which evolvements used up 1904
years to do before the Christian reli-
gion was ever heard or thought of,
which 600 years before the Mohamme-
dan religion was emergingly evolved
from the Hebrew and all of which used
a time of 1904 years after the myth
cal humbugging Mosaical account Of
an imaginary God, six creation DAYS
who imaginatively existed somewhere
(where was that) before he created
space to exist himself, or matter to
create from or time, force or motion
to use in creative proceedings and vet
in Judges, L., 9, it reads:
"He could not drive out the in
habitants Of the valley because they
had chariots of iron.''
All for Christs sake, Amen.
The foregoing is the historical orr
gin of the ten great humbug earthly
religions now existing-1S94. Each
one of these religions has it's priestly
humbugging, sacred, saidto be-inspir-
ed, writings proving I'll other religions
but its own, as stupendous, worthless
humbugs. Now in 1894, there are
1900, 100000 human beings on earth
only 30O,O00,0o0 belong to the Christian
religion countries.
The doctrinal tenets of these 800.
100000 Christian religionists condemn
1000, 100000 into an eternal, billowy
seething, fiery, rhinestone burning
abyss, there to eternally roast and
never be consumed, whose only faults
were they never adopted the Christian
religion, joined the church and liberal
ly paid their tithes thereto. This il
what 300,0O0,OO0 will do to 100000
90. Jesus said Guke XIX, 81
