spIRIrIsM SAID TO BE DEMONIsM

A most interesting little Brochure
has recently come off the press set
ting forth with Bible proofs that the
communications received by and
through Spirit Mediums is Of Demon
origin The writer traces his subject
through the Scriptures from the time
whe ncertain of the holy angels be-
came disobedienr. He proves from the
Scriptures that these fallen spirits
deal in personaing the human dead
with whose past history spirits
though invisible, are thoroughly ac-
quainted. He shows that they also fire.
quently personate the Creator and the
Redeemer, commanding their deceived
ones to pray, do penance, etc. This
however, is merely to lead them on
and to bring them more thoroughly
under Economical control. Sometimes by
breaking down the natural barrier
the human will, they obess their vic
tim, and rule him more or less to his
ruin-frequently sending such to the
mad house. Numerous illustrations
Scriptural and otherwise, are given
The price of the little book is bui
ten cents; it should be in the hands
of all interested in Spiritism or who
have friends interested therein. En-

been in consultation with leading rail-

further amend the Interstate Com

intended to meet the objections of the
Insurgent Republican and Democratic

not in the views and desires OF the
people as a whole, but in the promo
ton of the interest of the country at
the hands of those who chiefly control
its resources"
The defect Is fundamental The
hearkening exclusively to the voices Of
men whose energies are concentrated
upon particular enterprises, and who
therefore, see things in their
true perspective. naturally results in
putting the government into the bust
ness of patronage, the business Of
granting faYors and privileges and the
arranging the laws so that this or that
group Of men may make larger profits. "
It is the Republican alliance with the
interests and the resulting crop Of
laws that has brought forth the pros
perity" of the few while the mass OF
the people are groaning under the
weight of high prices. It is to this that
much of the prevalent political corrup-
ton is due; for governments which
have favors to bestow almost ineyita-
bly, become corrupt.

ALLEGED IMPOS TER.

Peter Oscar Jepson, who went to
Washington with a tale OF having been
shanghaied in Boston, kept a prisoner
on fishing boats, and, after three
months OF suffering, left stranded at
Colonial Beach, has disappeared from
the home of his benefactor in Wash
ington. G. w. Sellers, who took the
youth in when he told him Of his
trouble, has since learned that Jepson
had given him fictitious information
concerning his Boston relatives.
Mrs. w. w. Winchester, sister OF
Peter Oscar Jepson, the 17-year-old
youth who told the authorities in
Washington that he had been shang-
haied on Boston vessel, stated in
Boston yesterday that she places no
credence in her brothers story. Jepson
said that his father lived at 10 Norway
street, but Mrs. Winchester, who
resides at that place, told the local
police yesterday that her father lives
in Germany. Jepson made his home
with his sister until last June. Since
that time he has been wandering about

REV R. SEWER ACCEPTS CALL.

At meeting of the session OF the
Second Presbyterian Church on Tues
day night Rev. J. Il. Sewer handed ia
his resignation as pastor Of that church,
to take effect January /, 1911. He has
accepted the call recently sent him
from the First Presbyterian Church at
Augusta. Ga. Mr.. Sewer has been
pastor OF the Second Church in this
city nearly four years, during which
time he has become acquainted with
minority Of Alexandrians, among whom
he is deservedly popular, and many
outside his congregation will unite with
them in expressions Of roget when 1t
is known that he has concluded 10 leave
this city.
During Mr.. Sewers pastorate he has
preached ia almost every church in the
Presbytery, and held meetings in many
of them.
The work in Augusta, city OF from
ZOO TO 60, 900, offers so many larger
opportunities he feels it would be wrong
TO refuse to 90. The First church Is
perhaps the most influential church In
Atlanta. 1t has membership OF
about zoo. The church is an old fash
toned building with seating capacity
of1,10J people has a splendid organ and
a quartette choir. The street cars run
a special car from the tourist hotels to
the church during the winter to accom-
odate the tourists. They have separate
Sunday school building costing S42, 600,
capable of taking care of 600 scholars,
with most of the classes in separate
rooms. The church and Sunday school
building occupy whole city square,
which is planted in trees and grass.
The church is one of the leading ones
of the Presbyterian denomination In
the south.
Mr.. SEWER is 10th to leave Alex
andria, and he has reached his decision
after one OF the hardest struggles OF bis
life. the severance OF his pastoral re-
lations with the people Of the Second
Church and leaving his many other
friends and acquaintance in this city
being uppermost in his thoughts.
