CHRISTIANITY IN JAPAN.
(From General Missionary Intelligencer"
Aug. 9, 1907

Writing recently, Rev. j. G. Dunlap, of
the Presbyterian Board, says.
ga general feeling of Encouragement
pervades the church in Japan at present.
We are passing through a reaction as has
not been felt in dozen years. In several
departments of the central government, a
dead set is being made against Christian
work, notably in the Department of Educa-
ton and in the army, and the church is
feeling the effect. Everywhere it is harder
to get people to listen to Christian teaching
and weak-hearted Christians are falling
out of the ranks. The victory OF an Eastern
nation over Western has given way to a
new faith in the East, and its way and be-
liefs, and we are witnessing revivals of
Buddhism, Shinto and Confucianism. '''"

Works of William H. Burr, Judge Waite,
and Others are Valuable to the
Searcher after knowledge.
by B. 0. Fenton.l


The book "Anti-Christ" I have read
number of times.
1t is work of great and extensive re-
search, and in its pages many of the as
sumptions of the orthodox Christian relig-
ion are laid bare in such a manner as to
render almost worthless any attempt at dis
putation or adverse criticism.
In Hudson Tutte's work on "Evolution
of the God and Christ Idea," on page 254,
he says:
GAS that erudite and profound scholar,
William Fl. Burr, who has devoted life
time to the study of antiquity"
With such commentator for his great
literary efforts, we ought to feel under
many obligations to William Fl. Burr. He
wrote under the nom de plume of CAN'T
Christ" He was linguist, biblical
photographic, and a critic, and his re-
searches into and concerning biblical lore
have resulted in the production Of an ada
mantine argument against the preposterous
claims Of biblical advocates for alleged di-
vine inspiration. He has given a prac-
teal solution to many of the fancied mys-
teries Of the past, and he cites many of the
most profound scholars of the world to sub
stantiate many of his claims, while furnish
ing much reading matter of an original
character His references to and quota
tons from Lardner, Gould, Higgins, Mean
der, Davidson, and others, adds a spicy
flavor and rich support to the authors
original ideas.
IF any Freethinker should wish to critic
ally examine the doctrine Of the alleged
crucifxion, he, or she, should read Austin
Bierbower's "Was Christ Crucifed?" IF
this is also read in conjunction with VIM.
H. Burr on the same subject, much valua-
BILE information can be obtained. BY refer
ence to the Protevangelion and Marcion, in
Vulnerable discrepancies are exposed, es-
pecially the disagreement that exists be-
tween the Synoptic Gospels and the Gospel
Of John concerning that feast Of the pass
over. Those who are interested in discus
sion Of this character should procure copy
of Judge c. B. Waite's History of the
Christian Religion to A. d. 200, who so re-
Gently died in Chicago at the great age of
IS years.

who is to decide? E. Nj. Macdonald, for
mer editor of the Truthseeker. and Judge
Waite did not agree in their expressed
opinions on these passages. The former
held them to be forgeries and rank inter
polations, but the latter held that there
could exist no good reason for doubling the
authenticity of the latter passage, which
speaks of James as being the brother of the
man called Christ.
In this same relation, Antichrist and
Judge Waite did not agree. The former,
speaking of the crucifxion, declared that
it was forgery of the fifteenth century.
Waite accepted the testimony of Tacitus
as genuine.
The subject is no doubt interesting and
important. All who desire to know just
what Mr.. Burr has written relative to this
"James" will find it on page 118, of chap
ter &C. in the book "Antichrist But go
slow, for the hand of an evident critic is
here. One of the main features discover
able in this work is the establishment of
irrefutabe arguments which show that
there never was any Jesus crucified by an
order from Pontius Plate The author
maintains that there was a Jesus who was
stoned and hanged about the year rs B. c.,
and a natural son of woman named Mary,
by one Joseph Pandora. A scrutinizing
care is necessary, however, if one desires to
be made thoroughly familiar with this is
sue. In it both Josephns and Paul are lib
orally dealt with. For more elaborate
consideration of these two characters, the
reader should obtain "The Safe Side," by
R. M. Mitchell, work that was highly re-
garded as an authority by Judge Waite
That he was a scholar, all who are familiar
with him must admit.
William II. Burr was one of the great
est Paine critics that ever wrote line, or
walked beneath the great orb of day. For
upwards of 25 years he sent me documents
which he had unearthed concerning that
great apostle of human liberty, of whom
Burr was an ardent admirer He has also
clearly proven that Peter was a myth, and
that great GO ock" about which the Romsh
church has so much to say, is wholly
myth.
The destinations and contradictions of
many of the features of the new testament
have also been set forth with persistent
zeal by Mr.. Burr. While am in no sense
an agent, or have any pecuniary interest
in the sale of his book, yet would advise
all who read this to send $125 to Mrs. Will
liam Fl. Burr, his widow, Of 1917 X. Street,

the same for their own satisfaction and in

bad RUNAWAY MIX-UP
Ed Mccormick of Medina Knocked
Down and Run oVer-Not Ser
iously Hurt.

Medina Citizen: On last Thursday
while coming to town Ed Mccormick
met with rather a serious accident. He
was driving to Medina in a lumber
wagon and when a short distance south
Of town was overtaken by John Gums,
who was also coming 70 town in a
lumber wagon and in which he was
hauling a hog. Just about the time
they met the end gate came out of
Gums wagon and John got of to fix
it to prevent the hog from getting
away. tying the lines around the boards
on top of the wagon. When he got on
the wagon and started to fix the end
gate, the team got scared and ran
away, making a straight shoot" for
Ed and his wagon. When the horses
came running up one horse veered to
the right, but the other jumped nearly
into the wagon, the jar knocking Ed
out OF the wagon. directly underneath
the runaway team, the wagon passing
over mis- body. Ed was pretty badly
bruised around the head and shoulders
and is rather stiffened up at present.
but it is not thought that he is dam
gerously hurt. Mr.. McCormick's team
also got into the runaway game and
for a while things were doing in that
vicinity. And the hog came through
the mix-up unscratched.

LOCKJAW VICTIM
dies At HOSPITAL
FELL FROM WAGON, FRoZE FEET
AND INJURED HIS LOWER
LIMRs-REFusED Med
IcAL ASSISTANCE.

Bismarck. N. D.. Nov. 29.-George
Gudum from near Napoleon died in
a. local hospital Saturday from lock-
jaw.
Gudum had the misfortune to fall
from his wagon while going to his home
near Napoleon couple Of weeks ago
and injured his lower limbs so he was
unable to move or help himself in any
way. Before assistance came to him
he had frozen his feet. Neighbors
found him in the morning and he was
taken to his claim shack but refused
to have a physician called in to at
tend to his injuries. Finally his con-
dition became so serious that neigh
bors took the case into their own hands
and summoned doctor who immed-
lately stated that the man was suffer
ing from lockjaw. He was then remov-
ed to this city and placed in hospi-
tai where ne was given every possible
attention but death ensued after he
had been In this city two days. Gud-
UNI was living by himself on the claim
a few miles from Napoleon and so far
as Is known had no relatives in this
part Of the country.

A MAIL ORDER FRAUD
Dickinson Man Was Stuna--lndueed
500 Neishbors to Go Into Alleged
Snids Concern.

Dickinson Post: r. v. Collins,
homesteader living near Belfield, was
In the city recently for legal advice
regarding a mail order concern which
induced him to act as it's agent in this
territory and subsequently stung MIN,
so he alleges. The business Is carried
on under the name Of the Globe Assoc
citation of Chicago, H., and It's princi-
pal business, so Collins says, II to get
the money.
Aside from the allt1ring offer Of 100
pounds of sugar for less than So and
a line of impressive announcements
regarding the stability Of the Arm, 1T
differs little from other houses who fall
to deliver disable goods to the farmer
foolish enough to send his money away
from home.
The plan under which Collins work
ed was that of selling memberships at
$3.50 each to his friends who were thus
entitled to order goods from the as
ISOLATION for a period of Ave years. He
induced in the neighborhood OF 500
persons to take membership but was
thoughtful enough to send in but few
to the association with small orders
for merchandise. OF the goods shipped
to these persons 1t was found that the
sugar was the only article At to use
and the remainder of the shipments
had to be destroyed.
Collins Immediately informed the
other members of the association OF
the fraud as he calls it, which has been
perpetrated and refunded all the money
paid him. He is now planning to bring
action against the company to secure
the money due him for the time he
spent selling the memberships.

KILLED BY FALL
FROM BARN LOFT
LEEDS RESIDENT, WHILE lNToxi-
GATED, sTUM5LEs THROUGH
OPEN DOORWAY.

Leeds, ". D., Nov. 24.--Lars Rein
thon, who has farmed in this vicinity
for several years. aecidently killed
himself on Thanksgiving night. He
appears to have gotten on spree and
wandered into the hay loft of Mr.. En-
lingson's livery barn located on How
cry avenue. A theory has been formed
that he mistook the loft door for the
one in the bottom of the floor and
stepped through 1t only to meet his
death on the cement walk below. Mr..
Ellingson and others in the livery Of
flee at the time heard the dull thud OF
the body as 1t struck the walk and
rushed out to find Mr.. Reinthon almost
Iifeless. Three doctors were hastily
called and they made quick dag
nosis. They saw that there was very
little hope for the unfortunate man, as
the skull had been fractured and sew
eral other injuries that would cause
Reinthon's death in a short time. Mr.,
Reinthon passed to the great beyond
within an hour after the fatal accident
occurred.
He leaves a wife and several chill
dren TO mourn his untimely taking
away. The sympathy Of the entire
community has been extended to the
family in this their hour Of loss.

MRS. "MAY" BURNS
BUNCH OF LETTERS
CHICAGO POLICE NO LONGER TRY
TO CONNECT THOMPSON
WITH CHICAGO MURDER.

jamestown, N. d. Nov. 20.--Mrs III.
H. Thompson has received a letter
from MIR. Sheldon OF LaPorte enclos-
ing an eight-page letter from MRS.
May" which is quite a study. The let
ter is not very well written, the gram
mar being bad and awkward In places
and some words misspelled. Mrs. May
devotes more than half to telling how
much she loved May and how she
grieves for him, which was undoubt-
edly true. but 1t looks rather peculiar
in the light of developments. She
makes several admissions in the let
ter but attempts to cover them up
The deal between May and Sheldon
was not completed when Thompson
was killed and Mrs. May is trying to
complete them. When she took the
papers she said 'Harry's sister would
sign them" and In this letter to Mr.
Sheldon she says MY sister" win sign
them and adds, 81 mean Harry's sis
ter A little further she refers to the
fact that as soon as Mrs. Thompson
has signed them" All of which sounds
clever but IL Mrs. May was the real
wife there would be no need Of anyone
else signing anything.
Mrs. May said her husband" car
ried some life insurance but she did
not know If 1t was made payable to
herself or "Harry's sister"
On the day following the death OF
May" when his effects were being
examined, suit case could not be
opened. Mrs. May secured keys from
a locksmith and as soon as the suit
case was opened grabbed bunch OF
letters tied with blue ribbon These
she burned, standing guard until the
flames had consumed them completely.
The Chicago police have dropped the
case and 1t is not likely that any fur
Their attempt will be made. to connect
Thompson with the mysterious Mrs.
Raymond. The only man aFa'"st whom
there was any evidence has been tried
and acquitted. The description OF
Raymond was incomplete.

SWIPED BY HIRED GIRL
Minot Police Put Girl Through "ThiFd
Degree" and Recovered
Diamonds,

Minot Independent: Mrs. Alex Roise
was robbed Of three diamond rings
Thursday night, valued at about 5000.
The theft was kept q secret, no one ex-
cept the police being informed, and for
several days a still hunt was made for
them. The police suspected the hired
girl, o young woman employed in the
family for about four months, and who
was trusted implicitly. After waiting
for several days, an officer visited the
home, gave the girl the "third degree"
and she went to her rooms and pro-
duced the rings. 1t is likely that no
prosecution will follow. The girl saw
the rings. realized their value and SIM
ply could not resist the temptation to
take them.
